(THIS DOCUMENT IS THE PROPERTY OF HIS BRITANNIC MAJESTY'S GOVERNMENT). SECRET. S.F.C.(40) 15. 22nd JULY, 1940. WAR CABINET. SCIENTIFIC SUB-COMMITTEE ON FOOD POLICY. Copy of a letter from the Chairman to the Lord Privy Seal. 22nd July, 1940. The Royal Society, Burlington House, Piccadilly, W.1. My dear Lord Privy Seal, I infer from certain comments that have reached me in the Scientific Food Sub-Committee's First Report that the Committee's object is not everywhere understood. At present the national larder is full and most of our ports are open, and there is no need as yet to force upon the population the radical change in habits involved in adoption of the Basal Diet.
