MINTZ '& CO. HARRY L. MINTZ, JR., M'r. SUPPLY, N. C. Now. . . no wheat use ' in beer or ale i ' And wheat alone can solve the problem of feeding the ivorld's hungry Actually wheat has never been a large item in the brewing process? only of the entire U. S. wheat crop was used in 1945: In accordance with United States Govern ment policy, the brewing industry has used no wheat whatever since March 1, 1946. OTHER MATERIALS CUT 30% The other grains used have been reduced by 30%? that is, to 70% of the 1945 amount. Wheat alone can solve the problem of feeding the hungry. The grains to which the industry is now restricted, are of a variety and grade not normally consumed by the people of the world as food. LESS BEER AND ALE Altogether, the brewing industry is using 30% V less materials than in 1943. This results in a proportionately lower production. But since the current demand for beer and ale is about 25% greater than a year ago, the real shortage is nearer 50%. Consequently, your dealer will not he able to supply you with all the beer and ale you would like. We know you will understand the reason for this. * * * Your "attention* is earnestly directed to tl : recommendations of President Truman's Fam ine Emergency Committee, which are sum marized in the box below. ,This statement tells in clear, simple term' what each of us individually can do to ln 'i? during the emergency. What the President's Famine Emergency Committee asks us all to do 1. Save and share wheat and fat products ... Go light on aU foods that take wheat, fats and oils ? save breads, macaroni, cakes, cookies, pastries and deep-fried foods. Use drippings for pan-frying. Save salad oil?ase boiled dressings. 2. Buy and serve more plentiful foods . . . Balance diets with the more plentiful foods, such as potatoes, fresh fruits and vegetables. 3. Waste NO food . . . Dress up today' s leftovers for tofnorrow. Make every crust count with melba toast, crumb-toppings, bread puddings and sniffings. Take no more than you can cat. Clean your plate. Turn in . unusable fat salvage promptly.
