for whalemeat sausages, 1 writes E.H.S., late of Nelson, N.Z. m s “The people of Britain have never been more in need of help, and even during the war years their food situation has never been worse,” —writes E.H.S. “People could get tinned meat or sausages but these took a high number of the 32 points allowed each month for food outside the basic ration. If you could get tinned sheep tongues these took a whole month’s points. No wonder then, these people accept with gratitude sausage made from whalemeat which are cheaper and help to save valuable rations and points. It seems a long, long time since those good old days when the traditional roast beef of England was available to everyone just for the asking.” “HELP THIS UNSELFISH, Whalemeat sausages may not be poor food but they indicate a poor standard of living. When E.H.S. asks us to “Help this UNSELFISH, DESERVING COUNTRY ” we know where our duty lies. If we can help Britain to solve her food DESERVING COUNTRY” problems Britain will do the rest because most problems can be solved if a nation is well-fed. A few more coupons then please . . . butter coupons and meat coupons. Every particle of food we can save is needed. FEC2.IB
