    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.

prices fractions to more than a
point today in forenoon trading.

attributed in Wall Street large
ly to the recent period of
strength and also, to a lesser de
gree, to caution pending further
domestic developments along the
reconversion front.

losses. Bethlehem lost 1
points in the steels. Chrysler

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. SIX ENLISTMENTS
FOR STATE GUARO
Attracted by the program of
target practice and field instruc
tion offered by Company A, 1st
regiment, the Medford unit of
the Oregon State Guard, six

ment at the unit's headquarters
in the Medford armory Tuesday
evening, according to Lieut. O.
. Sabiii, unit commander.
The men enlisting are Charles
Taylor, Melvin Anhorn, Brant
