LORD WOOLTON’S ASSURANCE PEOPLE IN EAST END “THEY ARE MARVELLOUS” (Official Wireless) (Received Sept. 11, 3.15 p.m.) RUGBY, Sept. 10 The effect upon the food stocks of the Nazi bombing raids on London were described by Lord Woolton as annoying in detail but entirely unimportant as regards either the nation’s food supplies or those of London. Flour mills and sugar warehouses suffered chiefly. There was also damage to the stores of animal feeding stuffs and meat. None of this damage, however, would affect rationing. Lord Woolton said as a result of patient organisation the Food Ministry knew where the food supplies were, and in times like the present justification for that work was plainly seen.
