come the motto of every family for
the duration. The way to do it is
to include unrationed cuts plentl-
fully trough the menus, use cereals
and meat extenders such as oat-
meal and bread crumbs on rationed
cuts, and substitute fowl and
cheese in the menu for steaks and
chops as often as possible.
Veal kidneys combine with beef

Consumers Counsel
Given Advice To
Consumers
RV Eedarafed prnxs
By Federated Press

WASHINGTON - Farm
and labor organizations should
Immediately begin to concern
themselves with the food
problems Of their families and
should join with consumer organ
izations in making their needs
known"
This was the warning given by
Donald Montgomery, resigning con-
sumers' counsel Of the Agriculture
Department, who added that the
Cooperative League would hold a
forthcoming conference Of farm,
labor and consumer groups for that
purpose.
He was resigning, he said, be-
cause Roy F. Hendrickson, newly
appointed director Of food distribu-
ton under Food Administrator
Claude Wickard, told him there
would be a stronger, better stated
consumer work than ever, but had
decided not TO include a consumers
spokesman in the new setup. At
the same time, Montgomery said,
an industrial relations division was
created to give food professors and
distributors a chance to express
themselves.
Hits At OPA
Hitting indirectly at the Office
Of Price Administrators practice
on rationing tip-offs, he urged as
the first steps in a 12-point pro-
gram the immediate rationing of
all foods other than cereal products
and perishable fruits and vege-
tables and rule that no rationing
plan be announced in advance.
This, he said, would avoid tip
ping off trade spectators, pantry
hoarders and pocketbook patriots.
Meanwhile on Dec. g, two days
after Montgomery made this state
ment and one day after the nation
wide program for rationing canned
and processed goods involving 200
items was announced, Washington
hoarders began moving in on gro
Gerry stores. Grocers said stocks
were so low now they expected ra-
tioning in February to raise them.

WPB Official
Asks Return of
Deposit Bottles

A call for return of empty de-
post bottles, now lying unused in
homes, garages, business places
and industrial plants, was sent out
by Martin P. Kelly of Minneapolis,
Regional Chief, General Salvage
division, War Production Board.
Return of the empty milk and
beverage containers to retailers
for civilian reuse would alleviate
serious shortage caused by diver
sion of glass manufacturing facili-
ties to the war effort.
Minnesota bottlers of milk and
all types of beverages are combin-
ing their efforts to pick up hun
dreds of thousands of idle bottles
and put them back to work.
Since December, 1941, Americas
glass container industry has Keen
required to supply needs of the
armed forces and help reduce the
use of other containers made of
critical materials, Kelly said.
Every extra trip that could be
obtained from returnable bottles
would serve the cause of national
conservation" he pointed out.
Procedure suggested by Kelly
entails searching premises for the
containers and returning to the
dealer from whom they were pur-
chased or to some other dealer US
ing these same types of bottles and
receiving the regular deposit re-
fund
