What reading level is The Food Problem book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Yet no insistence in the call of the purchasing power of the rest of the world suffices to bring them out. Starvation exists in Petrograd and want along the Russian front, while grain lies piled up a few hundred miles to the rear.
Digitized by Google THE FOOD PROBLEM I43 One of the chief factors in manufacture is power and this power is usually derived from coal. The entire manufacturing scheme of the world today is upset through the break-down of the transporta- tion of fuel; and this disorgan...ization extends to the producer of the raw materials upon which manufac- ture is founded. There are other factors operative in addition to the breakdown of transportation, but this is the most potent in disastrous results. Less food is produced in the world, and more is con- sumed, since war is hard work. But whatever fac- tors enter, these could be compensated for if trans- portation, using the term in the large sense, could be held to the normal plane of efficiency. Break- down of transportation may be relative or absolute ; relative, when shipment of the necessaries is neg- lected on account of preoccupation with military tonnage (as in America), absolute when the total carrying power of the transportation systems has fallen below normal (present condition in Ger- many).
