Aiken told a newsman the fig ure was supplied in a report to the Senate Agriculture Committee by Comtroller General Iindsay C. Warren. Aiken described the report as confidential, but Agriculture De partment officials have acknowl edged that shortages have grown out of the Department's contracts with private firms for storage of farm commodities. Department officials acknowl edged two weeks ago that Depart ment losses will be perhaps as much as 5 million dollars, but probably less. They estimated that losses would run less than one eighth of one per cent on the total volume of commodities handled by the storage trade. They said " illy 10 billion dollars worth of grain, dry beans, dried milk, butter and other commodities moved through commercial storage facilities un der contracts with the Depart ment's Commodity Credit Corpor ration.
