Central Agency
To Control Food
Is Termed Need
Washington, May 2 HB Ren,
Harris Ellsworth of Oregon, RoSe
: burg publisher, today recommend
ed that one central agency be
designated to control food, sup
plies and release the nation from
shortages he said were induced
by too many government regula
tions. .
"Until this is done, we shall
continue to have eonfusion and
shortages. , . too many cooks are
spoiling the broth," he said.
Dealing specifically with the
meat shortage, Ellsworth said
(in a CBS broadcast last night)
that two solutions were possible:
"We must either borrow ourselves
into national bankruptcy" by
authorizing more subsidies or "we
must pay a little more for meat
... it can. be done either way."
Not Adequate
Ellsworth said present subsidies
were inadequate to convince pro
ducers that it is worth their while
to go on producing.
"The OPA has evidently been
' so intent on holding down prices
it has overlooked the fact that
production is also essential. The
war food administration, the de
partment of agriculture, the com
modity credit corporation, the
armed services and some other de
partments have been' interested
in the subject of production but
the combined efforts of all these
agencies have resulted in more
confusion than accomplishment."
he added. ,
OPA Is Target
Only a few hours after Presi
dent Truman commended the OPA
for stabilization efforts, Ells
worth singled out that agency for
particular criticism.
"The. OPA is particularly at
fault because it has not maintain
ed a balance between prices and
the cost of production," Ellsworth
said. "While other food prices
have been allowed to increase
sharply, the prices of meat have
been held down."

Tentative plans for the observ

Deep in the water with her cargo of food for American fighting men in the
South Pacific, an Army transport awaits orders to dock. Months of service have
so impressed Sergeant Harvey C. Stiefel with the war-making might of his country,
that he sits on deck writing of it to his wife, a Great Northern Railway employe.
"Daily we see these words, yet not once a year do we stop to analyze what they
mean 'Made in the United States of America,' " began Sergeant Stiefel. "The
simplest of English sentences, yet it stands for the pride of a great nation."
Ships "the harbor is stippled with ships. It is as if a giant hand had stamped
across the harbor in a large neon sign MADE IN U.S.A."

Planes "The air-minded GI differs on the type of plane, but need never
wonder what country it came from. Whether it is marked with the banded star
or any other symbol, it still sings MADE IN U.S.A."

MADE IN U.S.A. is stamped on another superior American product the
War Bond. Behind it, too, is the pride and honor of the great nation whose accom
plishments in war stirred an Army sergeant to eloquence.
Before the Seventh War Loan is launched on May 14, it is not impossible that
Nazi Germany will have been completely defeated. On that prayed-for day of
Victory in Europe the full power of American might will swing to the Pacific.
Landing the knockout punch on Japan will not be at bargain prices!
It will cost more precious blood, more millions of fighting dollars.
Between May 14 and June 30 your Government will ask you to take your
Seventh Step to Victory by lending, not giving, more of your money to the
greatest cause in your country's history the right to stamp MADE IN U.S.A.
on the document of World Peace.
