MOBILISE “KITCHEN FRONT," APPEAL'
HOUSEWIVES MUST ELIMINATE
WASTE
a
: SPECIAL TO THE "TELEGRAPH" LONDON, April 5 (UP).-Lord Woolton, Britain's newly appointed Minister of Food, to-day launched
a speech appealing to national food campaign with Britain's women to mobilise a "kitchen front.”
He urged the small consumer to avoid all waste, pointing out that a slice of bread wasted every day by everyone would mean a waste of thirty shiploads of wheat a year.
He urged that the peacetime formula of one spoonful of tea for each person and one for the pot be changed to "one for each person and none for the pot❞ which would save sixty shiploads of tea each year if adopted in every household.
Warning To Housewives
He emphasised, however, that there is enough food stored in England to day to make Hitler begin to wonder. Also he urged the menfolk not to ridicule the women if the latter tried new ideas to reserve supplies.
