- "Department of food production and home economics. Mrs. Stanley McCormick, chairman. Miss Helen W. Atwater, executive chairman."--p. 2.
- "Mrs. Peters left for overseas service before the manuscript was ready for the press. The final editing (including the formulation of the conclusions) was therefore done by Miss Atwater, who has had immediate direction of the survey from the beginning."--"Introductory statement," p. 6.
- This study first considers the pre-war development of communal agencies for the preparation of food to be consumed in the home. Inasmuch as Great Britain has, as a war measure, established a system of national kitchens, unprecedented in success and development, the second part of the survey consists of a study of the British national kitchens. The third part undertakes to present the situation in the United States up to November 1918. cf. p. 8.
