BUTTER RATIONING
May I protest against the butter rationing? If it -is a necessity, it jolly well shouldn't be! Our Government knew we would have to produce more food, but did they reorganise the armed forces to keep the farmers on the land? Not they! Thus a bigger butter rationing than need be. This is the first time I've been thankful my elder, cowing son is in the Air Force, as he will then get all the butter he needs, but what of my other three children? By the time their school lunches are cut there is nothing at all for breakfast and tea. It is bad enough to be without or very short of sultanas, bananas, raisins, baked beans, dates, honey and eggs for school lunches, but, without butter too. it is a bit too much. I. K. SK'SLTON.
