Lord Woolton Confident Adequate Stocks Of Food

LONDON, June 24 (Reuter). -Lord Woolton, Minister of Food, gave assurances to-day that Britain hins adequate stocks of food.

Some of the most vital stocks were greater than ever before in Britain's hlatory.

He knew, he paid, that German propaganda would do its utmost to sprend uneasiness by suggesting that all was not well.

The answer to those who - doubly was' simple. "Ask the village grocer what his stocks are like" ho con- Irived.

He had been asked, he went on, if he would reveal the amount of stocks. The answer was that food stocka were only second in importance to alocks of munitions.

Will Not Tell Enomy

"We would never dream of telling the enemy what we have in the way of munitions nor will we tell him what we have in the way of food," he continued.

Introducing a comewhat lighter note, Lord Woolton said that he had been asked if he were going to ration

tet had been pointed out to him that

when people came out of their shel- ters uffer an air raid they generally made themselves a cup of ton.

If that were true, he went on, the consumption of tea was going up very heavily.

He understood the need for a cup of tea at such time but he would ask the people to go a little slower at other times in order to make up for

it.
