Washington W It's not the
price alone that's causing the
swelling butter surplus in the
government's hands, officials

department experts contend, is
the penchant for trim figures
that finds' expression In diets
with fewer potatoes, less bread
and fewer fat-type table spreads
such as butter.
If Americans had an appetite
for as much-butter and its lower-
priced competitor, margarine, as

In tire period before World War
u, there would now be short
age of them.
In the 1935-39 period, Ameri
cans consumed an annual aver
age of 19.4 pounds of butter and
margarine. Last year the aver
age had dropped to 16.9 pounds.
Consumption of butter had
dropped from an average of 16.6
pounds in the pre-war period to
8.8 pounds last year.
Margarine consumption has
Lrisen from an annual average of
2.8 pounds to 7.8 pounds, but
this increase has not fully cov
ered butter's loss a fact which
officials say reflects declining
demand for food fats.
Government purchases of but
ter for price support purpose
have reached 90 million pounds
since late November. It is possi
ble, officials say, that govern
ment stocks may total several
hundred million pounds, or pos
sibly a fifth of a year's total pro
duction, by the end of the spring
and early summer season of
heavy production.

Navy Secretly Developing
Corps of Atomic Specialists
By ELTON C FAT
Washington ) The Navy is
developing a corps of atomic
bombardiers filers and ord
nance experts trained in the high
level and secret schools of nuc
lear weapon use. .
Graduate of these courses al
ready are at sea with the fleet
or at naval air stations flying
earner-based aircraft presumab
ly capable of delivering any cur
rent type of atomic bomb.
Pentagon officials today would
confirm only that such a pro
gram exists, but published re
ports and previous brief com
ments by other official make tt
posslbl to say that:
Tb Navy men receive their
training in atomic warfare at
tho same Joint armed forces
schools used for Air Force crews.
These include the New Mexico
installations of the Armed Forces
Special Weapon P r O J t
(AFSWP).
They use, as do Air Faroe
crews, precise duplicate . of
atomic bombs complete In all
details except the actual nuclear
fission charge.
Navy men participate in the
joint task forces which conduct
the experimental atomic explos
ions at the Nevada and Eniwetok
Proving Grounds.
Reports that component for
the atomic bomb are carried
aboard some of the larger car
riers, published last year, have
gone without official denial.
The Navy has at least one
type of plane, operating from
carriers, probably able to tote
tho same size A-bomb carried
in the bays of the biggest land
based, long-range bomber.
