UNIVERSAL TECHNICOLOR PICTURE
London, Feb. 18.
Britons, already frustrated by coal shortages, elec-
'tricity cuts and slender rations, were told to night that their slim candy and meat rations. may be cut still further.
The Food Mmister, Mr. John Strachey, said at a press conférence that the 100 per cent cut in electricity to industries in a wide belt of Eng- -land-had-shut-down candy-factories. As-are-- sult, he said, the candy ration of 12 ounces per month to adults and one lb, a month to those under 18 probably would have to be reduced.
Mr. Strachey. nin' warned that if Dominion ..
dock stop- pasien continued. the meat ration would have to be reduced again. The resent ment ration consista pa, ly of corned beef.
