APPEAL TO nAurrnur rnnn tUNd&KVE, rUUL>. ___ ! GOVERNOR MANNING URGES SOUTH CAROLINIANS TO SAVE MEAT, FLOUR, SUGAR AND FATS. Columbia. December 1:?"I desire to appeal to the people of South; Carolina to lay down ?for themselves j certain definite and specific days on which we will save flour, meat, sugar, and fats. "Our National Government has come to us asking for the perform ance of a specific duty. We are, asked to save meat, flour, sugar and fats. "1 urge our people to adopt the following programme: "To use no beef, pork, or mutton on Tuesdays. On a basis of 7 ounces, per person, this will save about 700,000 pounds of beef, pork, and j mutton per week, or save enough I meat to feed all of the South Caro-j lina soldiers in the army. "To use no wheat on Wednesdays. This will save about two million dol-' lar3 a year, and would supply ou r South Carolina soldiers in the army. America uses now one hundred million barrels of flour. This must be cut down to seventy-five million barrels. "To use no hop: meat on Thursdays. This will save about 700,000 pounds, or enough bacon and ham to feed our South Carolina soldiers in the armv. "To use no cake or sweet desserts on at least two days in each week. "We can use poultry, fish, and, vegetables. We can have them in | abundance if we will raise them. "We should save fats by broiling, j boiling, and baking instead of frying. No family is asked to stint, but to save and avoid extravagance and waste. Elaborate meals should not be permitted. Use no beef, pork, or mutton on Tuesdays, no wheat on Wednesdays, and no hog meat on Thursdays. ''The saving of food is a war measure. "If our army is to be fed we must meet the very reasonable demands of the Food Administration. The sacrifice asked at our tables is a small one compared to the price our soldiers stand ready to pay in blood. Remember the women and children of France have not tasted sugar during the past seven months, and in many towns and provinces meat is allowed only twice a week. President Wilson and Mr Hoover urge these requests upon our people as voluntary acts. I am confident that South Carolinians, red-blooded and patriotic, realizing that American freedom, liberty, justice, and honor are at stake, will respond to this call and will do our part to win the war.
