Benson's War Stance and Homefront Plans Reflect Mix of Views
A reprinted letter from Allan L Benson addresses confusion over his stance on the war with Germany. He argues he is not for the war but accepts its reality, urging use of the conflict to benefit the nation while avoiding enthusiasm for the destruction. He cites San Francisco as a parallel to unforeseen calamities and calls for building a stronger postwar society. The piece also includes a practical note on fat substitutes for households, citing Dr Louise Stanley and prices for suet and cottonseed oil as budget options.
