- SOLD AND GUANANTEED BY
FORD & CALHOUN, Pinehurst
Atlanta, Ga., Oct—Public eating
placea of all kinds, places of whatev
er nature where cooked food is sold
to be eaten on the premises, are to
come under specific regulations, ef
fective October 21st, requiring a di
rect reduction in the consumption of
food stuffs. The effects on the public
patronizing these places will be ma
terial. Garnitures and unnecessary
“trimmings” of all kinds are elimi
nated.
Dr. Andrew M. Soule, Federal Food
Administrator, requests the careful
attention of the public to these hew
regulations.
The new regulations carry into ef
fect the recent announcement of the
Food Administration that la fulfilling
the American promise to the Allies to
send them seventeen and' a half mil
lion tons of food this year, the pub
lic eating places would be called up
on to “undertake in many‘particulars
a more strict program than last year.”
The general plan of the Food Ad
ministration with regard to the con
duct of general eating places has been
reduced to twelve definite “General
Orders.” These twelve rules furnish
the specific measures by which the
Food Administration plans to carry
out, so far as public eating places are
concerned, the announced plan that
for the next year the American food
program will be a direct reduction in
the consumption of all food, particu
larly the staples, rather than a series
of emergency regulations such as
PERMITS CANCELED FOR
RECRUITING LABOR
Atlanta, Ga.—Now that all permits
fo’r recruiting labor in Georgia have
been cancelel, the labor situation
throughout the state is very much re
lieved, according to reports, which
are being received at the state depart
ment of commerce and labor.
\ Several days ago Senator Hoke
Smith took up with the proper author
ities in Washington the matter of hav
ing thesep -emits canceled because
of the serious labor shortages in
Georgia at the very time when the
state was in need of her maximum
man power to gather the crop. Throuh
his efforts the permits were canceled.
Now nobody can take advantage of
thep rivlleges of soliciting labor in
the name of the government unless
he represents a war industry actually
located in Georgia.
This means that Georgia is to be
allowed to keep all of her laborsup-
ply, except for the men who are ac
tually needed in the army or navy,
and except for those who are recruit
ed for war employment in industries
located within the state, of which
there are not many, as compared with
other states which are reaching out
all over the country to get men.

Bacon is also barred as a garniture
and only one meat can be served to a

ounce of butter is to be served to one

Two pounds is the allowance to be ob
served for each ninety meals served,
including cooking.
No waste food may be burned, but
all must be saved to feed animals or
reduced to obtain fats.
The food administration relies on
the hearty cooperation of the vast ma
jority of Hotel-keepers and other pro
prietors of public eating places to ob
serve these' regulations voluntarily,
but it is prepared to use the full force
of its power against the few .who
would interfere with the success of
the plan.
A paragraph in the circular says
“We know that the majority of men
in this class of business will welcome
this enforcement on the ground that
it protects the patriotic frqm the
slacker and gives the honest man who
wants to save for the country protec
tion from the wrongful acts of his
unpatriotic competitors.”

butter, cereals, meats, fats, sugar,

tables and fruits which should be

In a message to the managers of such
establishments the Food Administra
tor fully explains the food situation
with reference to the war, and tells
what the people of the United States
mustd o in the way of saving food in
order to make good the pledge which
authorized by the President, ha gave
to the allies at the recent conference
of food controllers.
“There is no prospect of a proper
ending of the war before the cam
paign of the summer of 1919,” says
million fighting men with the great
est mechanical equipment that has ev
er been given to any army. While
we expect the position on the Western
front may be improved from a mili
tary point of view, between now and
then, there can be no hope of a con
summation of the end that we must se
strength.”
The Food Administrator finds wo

extra drain of the Allies, and suffi

that is to say, pork; beef, poultry,
