Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Food Supplies in Peace and War The invention of mechanical motive power, and the consequent development of regular and rapid means of transport throughout the world, have de-localised food supplies. No longer is any nation doomed to starvation because its harvests fail or pestilence destroys its flocks and herds. All the ends of the earth can contribute to feed those who are in need. The distribution of food is determined not by physical but by economic forces, and so long as the machinery of transportation by land and sea is unhampered, the risk of famine is shared by the whole community of nations.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Food Economy in War Time But to all classes, even to the wealthy, it is now more important than it would be under ordinary circumstances to watch the markets. If an article of food of which the price is falling (or rising but slowly) be purchased rather than a similar or comparable article of which the \price is quickly rising, the supply and consumption of our various foodstuffs will be more equably adjusted, and this circumstance will in itself make for national economy. But as we have said those who are prepared to make altera tions in their consumption of food in order to conform with the urgent national needs of the moment may require information as to how far such alterations, whether of degree or of kind, can be made without danger to health and efficiency. Before presenting tables which are intended to show the relative cost of equivalent nutritive values when purchased in the form of different foods, we give therefore a brief account of the function of food in general and of the special importance of its individual constituents.

This book was released on 2018-08-17 with total page 504 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Food Supplies in Russia During the World War; Organization and Policy; Food Prices and the Market in Foodstuffs: Russian Series Fortunately such an alternative was at hand in the narrative, amply supported by documentary evidence, of those who had played some part in the conduct of affairs during the War, or who, as close observers in privileged positions, were able to record from first or at least second-hand knowledge the economic history of different phases of the Great War, and of its effect upon society. Thus a series of monographs was planned consisting for the most part of unofficial yet authoritative statements, descriptive or historical, which may best be described as about halfway between memoirs and blue-books. These monographs make up the main body of the work assigned so far. They are not limited to contemporary war-time studies; for the economic history of the War must deal with a longer period than that of the actual fighting. It must cover the years of deflation as well, at least sufficiently to secure some fairer measure of the economic displacement than is possible in purely contempo rary judgments.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Gleaner: September, 1943 It is almost trite to talk again about the importance of food pro duction in the winning of the war. Yet every wartime broadcast from Washington, every pronouncement of the President of the United States re-emphasizes the vital necessity of keeping up our food supply. Civilian comfort and convenience are basic to civilian morale. We have only to look at the apparent distress caused our population by the exigencies of food rationing, which limits but does not deprive anyone of anything; or to view the effect of shortage of beef, butter and a few other food items, even though we are in the midst of comparative plenty of other essential foods, sufficient in content and amount to meet every real requirement. Can we visualize the situation in so many parts of the world where real need for food exists? Even in a comparatively prosperous country like England the civilian population is alloted one egg a month. Picture the scorched earth of Poland, the destitution of China, the starvation of India, of Spain, of other European countries that have been bled white by their conquerors and masters.

Download or read book War Time Control of Distribution of Foods written by Albert N. Merritt and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12-03 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from War Time Control of Distribution of Foods: A Short History of the Distribution Division of the United States Food Administration, Its Personnel and Achievements In the attempt to present a brief history of the Dis tribution Division of the United States Food Adminis tration, we have found it quite impossible to treat the activites of this division apart from that of the whole Food Administration. The work of all divisions was so closely inter-related that it is difficult to point to a single achievement of any division which could have been effected without the closest cooperation and assistance from a number of Divisions which had charge of other phases of the activity. However, as we do not wish to write a history of the Food Administration as a whole, a task which has been left to other hands, we shall confine ourselves largely to a statement of the relation of the Distribution Divi sion to the main Food Administration program. The fact that space does not permit us to refer especially to the activities of other divisions should not in any way detract from the importance of the service rendered by them, nor is it intended to qualify in any degree the previous statement that many of the achievements mentioned could not have been accomplished but for the coiiperation of all branches of the Food Adminis tration.

This book was released on 2017-11-19 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Agriculture and Food Supply in France During the War IN the autumn of 1914, when the scientific study of the effects of war upon modern life passed suddenly from theory to history, the Division Of Economics and History of the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace proposed to adjust the program of its re searches to the new and altered problems which the war presented. The existing program, which had been prepared as the result of a conference of economists held at Berne in 1911, and which dealt with the facts then at hand, had just begun to show the quality of its contributions; but for many reasons it could no longer be fol lowed out. A plan was therefore drawn up at the request of the Director of the Division, in which it was proposed, by means Of an historical survey, to attempt to measure the economic cost of the war and the displacement which it was causing in the processes of civilization. Such an 'economic and Social History Of the World War, ' it was felt, if undertaken by men of judicial temper and ade quate training, might ultimately, by reason of its scientific Obliga tions to truth, furnish data for the forming Of sound public opinion, and thus contribute fundamentally toward the aims of an institu tion dedicated to the cause Of international peace.

Download or read book Food in War Time Classic Reprint written by Graham Lusk and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-29 with total page 50 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Food in War Time If one takes a pint of whole milk daily, or even, as we have seen, cabbage or beet-tops in its stead, one may take fat in the forms of olive oil or cottonseed oil, corn oil, cocoanut oil, peanut butter, or in other yege table oils, without possible prejudice to health. Osborne and Mendel, and more recently Halliburton, have pointed out that oleomargarine as prepared from beef - fat contains the fat-soluble growth-promoting accessory substance or vitamine which is present in butter-fat, but which is not contained in vegetable oils or in lard. Halliburton and Drummond summarize the practical results of their work as follows: But when we approach the subject of the dietary of the poorer classes, the question is a more serious one. In ordinary times the consumption of beef dripping, which is considerable among the poor, would to a large extent supply the lacking properties of a vegetable-oil margarine. But at the present time beef itself is expensive, and the Opportunities of obtaining dripping are there fore minimized. At the same time the three important foods for children already enumerated (milk, butter, eggs) have risen in cost, so as to be almost prohibitive to those with slender incomes. The vegetable-oil margarines still remain comparatively cheap, and the danger is that unless measures are taken to insure a proper milk supply for infants at a reasonable charge, these infants may run the risk Of being fed, so far as fat is concerned, entirely upon an inferior brand of margarine, destitute of the growth-promoting accessory substance. It would be truer economy even for the poor to purchase smaller quantities of an oleo-oil margarine if they cannot afford the luxury of real butter. The legal restrictions placed upon the sale of oleo margarine and the taxes enhancing its cost, now in operation in many of our states, are without warrant in morals or common sense and should be entirely abolished in times like these. A well made brand of oleomargarine is much more palatable than butter of the second grade, and certainly for cooking purposes is just as valuable.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Citrus Fruit During World War II Citrus fruit constituted a valuable element of the food supply of the United States during World War II. The rapidly expanding domestic produc tion provided substantial supplies of fresh and canned citrus for both civilians and the armed forces. Furthermore, substantial quantities of canned citrus Juices were exported under lend-lease. Although various foods became inadequate to meet the greatly expanded wartime desands, thus necessitating allocation among principal classes of users and rationing among civilians, fresh citrus fruit continued generally ample throughout the War.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Food Guide for War Service at Home: Prepared Under the Direction of the United States Food Administration in Co-Operation With the United States Department of Agriculture and the Bureau of Education In the spring of 1918 the Collegiate Section of the United States Food Administration was called upon to prepare a simple statement of the food situation as affected by the war, suitable for elementary and high school teachers, high-school pupils, and the general public. The demand arose because of the wide adaptation of the three courses on this subject then being sent out weekly to universities, colleges, and normal schools throughout the country. This little volume is the response to the request. It was written by Katharine Blunt, of the University of Chicago, Frances L. Swim, of the Chicago Normal School, and Florence Powdermaker, of the United States Department of Agriculture. The records of the Food Administration have been open to the writers and they have had the advice and criticism of its officials and specialists. No effort has been spared to secure accuracy of statement in the text. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
