FOOD CONTROL IN AMERICA
Food control in America is of and for the people. By willing service of a free people to do these things. To feed the allies, that they may continue to fight. To feed the hungry in Belgium and other lands, that they may continue to live. To feed our own soldiers overseas, that they may want nothing. To keep prices steady and the flow of distribution even that the poor at home may be fed. To make everyone's effort count its utmost for winning the war for freedom.--American Grocer.
