To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
This is a long and dry story of pigs and corn and difficulty. But I think it well to tell it, even though it may be dull, because it seems to be so little known. Hoover's situation vis a vis pigs and producers and packers in those strenuous days of threatened collapse of an all- important food supply seems to be too little understood. And this little understanding has resulted in too much unfair criticism. Now let us turn to another story with more humans than hogs in it. Hoover had said, in Ma...y, 1917, within a few days after the President had told him that he wanted him to administer the food 248 AMERICAN FOOD ADMINISTRATION of America, as a war measure: "I conceive that the essence of all special war administration falls into two phases: first, centralized and single responsibility ; second, delegation of this responsibility to decentralized administration. " Then let us recall how soon after that we were all assuming some share in this "decen- tralized administration. " If we had not all become Federal Food Administrators of states, or county, or city, or rural sub-food adminis- trators, or even members of food conservation committees or members of honor ration leagues, we were all at least, household food adminis- trators.
