The armed forces of Britain and America have reached their peak. They have to be fed. More Allied armies are being formed in the liberated countries. They have to be fed. More and more liberated1 peoples are also having to be fed. World food production is stretched to the limit and the demands keep on piling up. Already 100 million more ,leople are depending on the United Nations for food, as a result of liberation. There will be millions more. For the greater the Allied military successes, the greater the problem grows. The present British jneat situation, serious as it is, is only a part of the over-all food problem. Britain has already made a very substantial contribution to easing the Continental food shortage. Present food stocks in the U.K. as the Prime Minister told the House of Cominons, have fallen to below six million tons. This was his answer to the rumor that they total 700 million tons. The Prime Minister added that shipments to liberated countries would reduce them to 4,750,000 tons by the end of June. Practically all .of the stocks that were built up, by careful planning and a considerable amount of belt-tightening, against emergencies were quickly released for use elsewhere as soon as the risk of U-boats and bombing became less. Great quantities have been handed over to General Eisenhower for distribution wherever needed on the Continent. Britain has also cut her imports of food, thus freeing both ships and supplies for others. British stocks Thet.

That Britain's emergency stocks have been available has done a great deal to relieve the pressure of the present food crisis but Britain has now reached a point where it has either sent or promised all it can give. Up to 1944 Canada's contribution to United Kingdom meat supplies was mainly in the form of bacon, but ince 1944 substantial quantities of beef as well as bacon have been shipped. This has involved provision of extra shipping space, which has already been adequate to lift the bacon and beef supplies which Canada has made available, although there have been occasional delays due to wartime conditions. As a permanent solution of the world food situation, it is clear that countries more capable of producing food than Great Britain must take the responsibility of feeding liberated countries. That is where the Americas, including Canada, will come in. Better Not to Speculate . . . Now that German resistance is disintegrating, the situation is so fluid that it. is idle to speculate regarding future events. It would be best to follow the official pronouncements from the front. But certain basic points should be borne in mind. The speed of an advance, even against little or no opposition, is conditioned by logistical factors. You cannot move an army forward simply by putting it in trucks and driving off into the blue. Only for very short periods can an army cover great distances without halts for bringing up supplies. Even though 'German resistance is collapsing, it is perfectly possible we many find diehard Nazis resisting wherever they can, sometimes behind our front. When an advancing army is "reported" at such-and-such a place during a rapid advance, it may mean that only reconnaissance elements, and no infantry, have reached that spot. It hardly ever means that a place is firmly held. J. M. S. LOUBSER D.C., BJV. CHIROPRACTOR Wallace Block Phone 640 Going to a Party? Let us glamorize you for the occasion.
