TitleLetter from the Bread and Food Reform League at 5, Clements Inn, Strand, London, WC2 to William B Hardy
Date7 May 1917
DescriptionGives the Reform League's interpretation of experiments done in Milan by the La Societa Umanitaria de Milan [cited by the Food Committee] -- does not feel that they invalidate the Reform League's position on the superiority of wholemeal over white -- notes the necessity of grounding the flour finely and suggests that previous experiments used coarse ground meal -- that the Prison Authorities have been serving this bread for 40 years -- that whole wheat bread is 'more satisfying...its adoption might help prevent the necessity for having bread tickets'.
