Several ministers have coiniuuni
Ut I with the i tte couii* il. however,
to explain that thev will not be able

of the attitude of I tie administration

A mini ;te.r at Woodward replied in ,
much tho same vein, but set forth an
argument why the cause of food coil- '
<ervation can not be espoused whole |
eartcdly by him while any food
produt t of any kind is employed iu
the manufacture of liquors.
A penciled letter from s minister in
a remote section set forth that lie is
opposed to the war under any circum-
stances and he is opposed to urging
conservation of food upon poor,peti

mind that the rich are wasteful as
