FOOD IN BRITAIN
DECENTRALISED CONTROL
RUGBY, May 20,
As part of the preparations against possible invasion the Ministry of Food has appointed in certain parts of Britain voluntary food organisers to attend to local food supplies should the communities in which they live be isolated by the enemy. These voluntary food organisers would be- responsible for conserving and fairly distributing the food within their areas till communication with the permanent Ministry of Food organisation had been restored.
More than 500 volunteers have already been appointed, and further appointments are being made as the scheme is extended.—B.O.W.
