The saving was about 1,250,000 pounds of flour as this state’s contribution to the food needs of the boys who are shooting the Germans. Here’s what Mr. Hoover, United States Food Adminis¬ trator, wired Dr. Andrew M. Soule, Federal Food Adminis¬ trator for Georgia, Saturday: # Soule, Food Administrator: Please express to the people of Georgia my sincere ap¬ preciation of their patriotic*action in the observance of a Wheatless Week. Such whole-hearted response to our re¬ quest is most gratifying and justified my confidence that the American people will voluntarily save sufficient food for our army and the Allies without rationing or other burdensome regulations. I congratulate you and your staff—and the State of Georgia—for the patriotism of, her people. . HOOVER.
