the poeillon on the western treat may
be improved, from a military point of
view, between now and then, there can
be no hope of a consummation of the
end that we must secure until allo‘lier

The Food Administrator points out
that this accomplishment in 1910 will
save a host of American lives that will
have to be sacrificed it the war contin-
ues until 1020. To strike the final
blow in 1919 means that we must not

The Food Administration in Con-
necticut is preparing for immediate
distribution a .twclt'tfipagc pamphlet
containing the new rules and explana-
tions, and will also issue a kitchen
poster to be hung up in the kitchen of
l-vci-y public rating place. Mr. Sco-
ville believes proprietors of hotels and
restaurants will find it to their best in-
tervals to reprint the general plan so
that it may be placed on dining-room
tables and read by patrons, who must
be made familiar with the new regula-
tions. in crder that they may under-
stand what is required and cooperate
with the public eating places. it is
believed that a thorough knowledge of
the new plan will dissipate charges
made from time to time that hotels
and restaurants have been’using the
Food Administration as an excuse for
charging unjustifiable prices. it is
also expected that the public and also
competing hotels and restaurants will
promptly report slackers who are de-
linquent in observing the newlrulee.
