somo remarks to tho offect that reli

BRITISH FOOD STOCKS
LOWEST IX HISTORY
In a speech In tho Britten house of
commons a fow days ago Pranlsr
Lloyd Georgo said that tho success
of the en ton to cause depended on tho
ability to solvo tho tonnage shortage
which was now affecting the ordinary
needs of tho national and military
olgoncles.
The situation called for thP grav
est measures. The premier said thero
was no suro way to victory 'without
hunting tho submarine" from the deep.
Enormous sacrifices woro necessary
from the British public, said Mr. Lloyd
Goorgo. He stated the government
proposed to dlsponso with all non-e3-sefntlal
Importations to snvo tonnage.
Tho stocks of foods In Groat Britain
at the present time aro lower tban they
over have been before, Mr. Lloyd
Georgo said. It was essential for tho
llfo of th nation, he declared, that
ovory posslblo effort bo made to In
croaso home production. The Im
portation of apples, tomatoe" and fruits
will bo prohibited cmtlrely.
Tho girl belloved In tomorrow and
In tomorrow's sunshine, In tho Joys of
giving and tho Joy which comes from
doing good. She took tho man as a
drlnk-soddon youth, beneath whoe ex
terior she saw a soul struggling
against the Inner problems, and lifted
him to his real place in society. Then
when tho teat of manhood camo and he
drove a runaHvay engine through n
blazing forest fire saving the town
from destruction, hor chlldllks faith
was repaid by his vindication and loy
al love. This in a measure tolls the
story. "Tho Ninety and Nin,a" with
