'Quiz Kids9 Can
Explain Why
Meat Is Short
- By Ernest Yaecar -
WASHINGTON, March 14 -(JP)
The "Quiz: Kids" came up with
answers - today ; after Senator
Wherryj (R-Neb) shouted a ques
tion to them as they sat in the
senate Visitors gallery.
Wherhr isaid. there are three
million cattle hi the country, corn
is spoiling in the grain belts and
he wanted to know why meat is
not available for dinner tables
throughout the country.
"I want to ask the Quiz Kids,"
he told, the senate. "I can't find
the answer here."
The kids,' being a bit shy per
haps, didn't answer right out in
meeting but later eight-year-old
Joel Kupperman told reporters, "I
thmk they; just don't transport it
to the right place, that's, alL"
"The obvious reason," remark
ed that wise old boy, Richard
Williams, 15, "is the shortage of
railroad cars."
"They apparently won't be able
to send enough cars until after
the war needs are taken care of."
Harve Fischman, 14, said it
seemed to him "the army and
lend-lease are taking most of the
beet" i
Senator' Lucas (D-Ill), Majority
Leadeij Barkley (Ky) and Wherry
took n time out from the food de
bate to praise the Quiz Kids who
are to compete with four senators
on their radio program next Sun
day night:
