Author Description

Excerpt from Agencies for the Sale of Cooked Foods Without Profit If agencies for communal cooking are introduced into the United States as a result of the necessity for conserving food and fuel, or of reducing cost, it will be of importance to know whether they should be considered as a valuable permanent addition to our national life. The way in which they should be established will depend somewhat upon the answer to this question. Such an answer can be given only after a study of different types of communal feeding. Inasmuch as the development of these types has differed in the various countries in which they have arisen or taken root after introduction from other countries, a brief descriptive and historical survey of these agencies has been undertaken in order to make a fair comparison of the methods used.
