Kansas City Families
Say owl Menus Call
For Too Much Meat
Government-Sugees
Ration Being Tested
By Three Households

By the Associated Press.
KANSAS CITY, Nov. eff space
In their refrigerators and cash in
their pocketbooks permit, three
Kansas City families will finish a
whole weeks test of Government
suggested meat rationing menus to-
morrow
But it's quite strain, they admit.
Their comments:
1--WE don't need that much meat"
I'VE never buy that much; it's too
expensive, too."
Were not accustomed to that
much meat and the bills are higher"
And the mounting supply of left
overs, they agreed, requires lots of
refrigerator space.
Housewife Puzzled.
Mr.. and Mrs. Charles E. Sayers,
the Ernest E. Petersons, with three
children, and the Arthur w. Gilberts,
with three children, began the test
Sunday with menus supplied by the
Office of War Information, specify
ing 2h pounds of meat a week for
each adult and lesser amounts for
the younger children.
Mr.. Sayers is a war worker, Mr..
Peterson a utility company employe
and Mr.. Gilbert an educator.
Since Sunday we've accumulated
big assortment here" Mrs. Sayers
reported in perplexed tones. I'm
wondering if that is quite right to
do, in wartime and all. Maybe we
can have guests and use up the
extras"
Since we started this" Mrs. Peter
son agrees, we've had phone calls
and letters from lots of interested
people-and I've only found one
family that says they use that much
meat
Can't Find Bacon.
She found three flaws in the
menus, although meals are we'll bal
anced and appetizing: They don't
use leftovers, they call for too much
meat and they don't use enough
eggs.
Il tell you it's pretty hard to stick
to the menus" she added. They
specify such items as oranges
which are at their peak price right
now"
Meats included for the week are:
Sunday, lamb roast; Monday, soup
and cold sliced lamb Tuesday, pork
chops; Wednesday, lamb pie; Thurs
day, Swiss steak; Friday, bacon and
fish; Saturday, bacon in baked lima
beans.
The very first day Mrs. Gilbert
encountered trouble:
why. it says bacon! We haven't |
been able to find any bacon for a
long time!"
