Food Situation
Called Critical
By Two Nations
By Ann Hicks
(United PrM SUff Correspondent)
Washington, March 28 (U'iThe
unireo. aiaies ana ureat Britain
announced jointly today that they
were reappraising the entire food
supply and requirements problem
in the light of an "increasingly
critical" situation.
The announcement made by the
state department and the British
embassy was made in connection
with the visit here of Oliver Lyt
telton, British minister of produc-
tion, and J. J. Llewellln, minister
of food. It revealed that the two
Britishers were sent here by
Prime Minister Winston Churchill
at the invitation of President
Roosevelt to work out the difficult
food problem with high American
officials.
Congress "Alerted"
The announcement came as the
food supply problem held the full
attention of congress, with sepa
rate house and senate investiga
tions already projected. Civilians
meanwhile received conflicting re
ports from government agencies
on the amount of food they could
expect this year.
A spokesman for the "big four"
meat packing concerns predicted
that the government will have to
"take over" the meat industry if
the war should last three or four
more years and OPA regulations
are not changed.
Thomas E. Wilson, Chicago,
chairman of the board of Wilson
& Co., told the senate food inves
tigating committee that the meat
industry could not "continue to
borrow money and assume the
losses that will continue unless
this program is changed."
Will Discuss Factors
The British-American statement
said that all relevant factors will
be discussed, including the levels
of consumption and the reserves
necessary to support the war ef
fort in the countries concerned.
The conflicting reports on the
food supply came from the war
food administration and the of
fice of price administration.
Foreign Economic Administra
tor Leo T. Crowley told the senate
foreign relations committee that
lend-lease shipments of beef and
veal during 1944 amounted to on
ly seven-tenths of one per cent of
the supply.
"It should be remembered that
we have received under reverse
lend-lease about three-fourths as
much beef and veal as we have
lend-leased," Crowley said.

purchases of "E" Bonds. This amount is approximately 50

The Seventh War Loan will be one of the two great war
loans planned for 1945. More money will have to be raised in
this War Loan than ever before. The money is needed first of
all to help pay.for the war, now at a critical stage, and secondly
to get excess money into war bonds as a means of protecting
the men and the women who work for you. ,

attention to the sale of E Bonds to workers through the medium
of the Payroll Savings Plan. The Payroll Drive will start in April,
and all Payroll buying plus, buying through cash or increased
allotments during the months of APRIL , MAY and JUNE will
be credited to the Seventh War Loan Drive. ' "
