America Must Share
Food With Needy,
President Declares
BY the Associated Press.


NEW YORK, Sept 2o-President
Roosevelt said last night the United
States must be prepared to share It's
food with those who-without our
help-might be faced with want
In a letter to food dealers attend
ing the seventh annual conference
of the Super Market Institute, the
President asserted, however, that
"the Government does not intend to
deprive any American citizen OF sui
ficent food to maintain health and
energy"
The text of his message:
The food problem of the United
States has become an increasing
part of our military effort. There
is no indication that our RESPONSE
bilities in this direction will dimin-
ish soon-in fact, they are likely to
be increased as additional territory
is occupied by our Aghting forces.
"It is therefore essential that there
be complete cooperation between
the producers and distributors OF
food in this country an dthose gov
ernmental agencies charged with the
duty of supplying food to our soldiers
and civilian population.
The Government does not intend
to deprive any American citizen OF
sufficient food to maintain health
and energy. At the same time, we
must be prepared to share with those
who-without our help-might be
faced with want.
Everything that we in the United
States can do to increase production
and make distribution more efficient
will further this objective. Retail
distributors have an especial duty
| which I feel they will be glad tt
assume patriotically."

lone Bite Defense
Wins AcquittoI
Of Dog Owner

The legal theory that every dog
is entitled to one bite won an
acouittal in Municipal Court yester-
day for dog owner charged with
permitting a vicious dog to run at
large.
The defendant. James Jackson,
55, colored, of 2601 Pomeroy road
Sc. was arrested by police when
they observed his dog bite an un-
identified man Tuesday near the de-
fendants house.
Citing the "one bite" theory in
arguing the case before Judge Walter
J. Casey, Defense Attorney Michael
J. Colbert contended a person can
be convicted on the charge only if
he has prior knowledge that his dog
is vicious.
TT has not been proven here that
the dog has ever bitten any one be-
fore this incident. therefore the de-
fendant cannot be held guilty" ruled
Judge Casey, dismissing the case.
