CATTLE FEEDERS Washington, May 23 (U.R) The Var Food Administration soon will'announce plans (or the payment of the new $35,000,000 government subsidy to cattle feeders, officials said today. The subsidy will come out of Commodity Credit Corp. funds and will be paid through local agricultural agency committees upon presentation of sales re ceipts by cattlemen. Both AAA and CCC are WFA agencies. The feeder subsidy was an nounced by War Mobilization Director Fred M. Vinson last week as part of a revised meat program intended to increase production and get better distri bution of civilian supplies. It be came effective May la. A payment of 50 cents per 100 pounds will be made to stock men upon the sale of good and choice cattle, except bulls, weighing 800 pounds or more. The subsidy is the first, govern ment payment to be made di rectly to the livestock producers and is designed to encourage movement of cattle into feed lots for fattening to heavier weights and better quality. Payment machinery will be patterned along the same gen eral lines of the present subsidy to dairy farmers on sales of milk and butter fats. Farmers may present their sales certificates to AAA officers any time after the first of the month and collect payment on sales made during the preceding month.

STORE SHORTAGE ACUTE By United Press The nation's liquor dealers re ported an increasingly short sup ply of better-grade liquors to day, with the situation destined to become 'worse before getting any better. And it will be a particularly long time between drinks for the man who insists on bonded whis key, the dispensers agreed. In liquor stores and nightclubs throughout the country the situ ation appeared much the same: an acute shortage of bonded whiskey, very little of the good blended brands, some gin but plenty of rum, wines and beer. Despite short supplies of bond ed and straight whiskies, the Of fice of Price Administration con tended that the liquor black mar ket had attained only limited proportions. It recognized, however, that many retailers had adopted a practice of holding out the choice brands for customers of long standing.
