MEATLESS DAYS
FOR ALL PEOPLE
Hamp Williams Asks All Pa
triotic Citizens to Opserve
Days in Their Homes
Hamp Williams, federal food
administrator for Arkansas has
| issued an appeal to the people
of Arkansas to observe the
meatless and wheatless days,
as is being done by the hotel
! and restaurants.
Mr. Williams does not want
it understood that his request
is in the form of an order, but
it is an appeal to the patriotism
of the people to do this as their
bit in helping to win the war
“The success of the war and
the freedom of the world for
democracy as against autocracy
largely depends upon the food
supply,” says the administra
tor. "The world faces an alarm
ing shortage of its staple food
crops, on account of the mil
lions of men engaged in bat
tle and the manufacture of
munitions of war. In view of
this Herbert Hoover has re
commended that Tuesday be
observed as meatless and Wed
nesday as wheatless day- I he
people of this great state have
proven their loyalty and pa
triotism in all war measures by
giving the army and navy our
quota and by subscribing more
than our portion of the Red
Cross, Y. M. C. A. nd Liberty
loan funds. I request all the
people of this state to further
prove their loyalty and patiiot
ism by observing these days.
Do not serve or eat beef, pork
or mutton on Tuesdays, or any
food containing wheat or its
products on Wednesdays.”
