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.
"Richard I Manning,
"Governor."
