TO BE STRICTER
SAYS OPA CHIEF
C-C WEEK
TO BE OBSERVED
JANUARY 14 TO 21
Paul Selby, president of the
Medford Junior Chamber of
Commerce, announced today
that the week of January 14-21
is being observed nationally as
"Junior Chamber of Commerce
Week." On January 22 the
United States Junior Chamber
of Commerce will celebrate its
23th anniversary, with over 800
local organizations joining with
the Mcdford Junior Chamber of
Commerce in staging Founder's
Day banquets.
It was on January 21, 1920,
that the Junior Chamber of
Commerce movement was
founded in St. Louis with 12
organizations as the original
nucleus. The Junior Chamber
of Commerce in Medford was or
ganized on October 17, 104.
The local organization is
staging its Founder's Day ban
quet on Saturday, January 20.
Prophesying that stricter food
rationing, which began during
the holidays with cancellation of
unused stamps and Increased
points, will continue for most of
1945, a statement on the food
situation has been Issued by
Verne F. Livesay, regional agri
cultural adviser for OPA in six
western states. '
Pointing out that the stock of
commercially canned vegetables
on December 1, 1944, was but
56 per cent of the quantity on
hand for civilians 12 months
previous, Livesay said that needs
of the armed forces are expected
to remain heavy. Sugar rations
will be severely tightened, Live
say predicted, and said that can
ning coupons for no more than
700,000 tons can be issued in the
1945 season, compared to 1,500,-
uuu tons last season. This is due
to the fact that 1945 will see no
more than 5,400,000 tons avail
able for civilians as against
6,100,000 in 1944, 5,700,000 in
1943 and 7,350,000 tons in 1941.
Livesay says.
"Food rationing must be
placed on a pay-as-you-go basis."
Livesay said. "During the next
lew months and perhaps through
1945, ration stamps will be only
good on the basis of the fairest
distribution obtainable. Short
ages in some items, such as but
ter, may continue. The choice
and variety of meats and canned
fruits and vegetables may con
tinue to be spotty in some cities
but as closely as possible, point
values will be maintained to as
sure the shopper a reasonable
choice of rationed foods."
As for the farmer on the pro
duction battleline, Mr. Livesay
emphasized that the stricter ra
tioning move was a direct result
of the current European military
situation and future military pro
graming rather than any failure
by agriculture to accomplish its
patriotic production task.
