MEAT SHORTAGE. NOT OPA TO BE ANDERSON'S FOE Washington, July 3 U.R) Secretary ol Agricultu- Clinton r '.ndorson is going to fight the meat shortage, not the OPA, with the extra power granted him by congress, he revealed to day. Anderson told reporters that on Monday, his first official day on the job, he conferred with Price Administrator Chester Bowles about possible effects of amendments to he OPA exten sion bill, signed by President Truman over the week jnd. The bill gave Anderson great er power than held by any of his predecessors. Among them was th. authority to allow small slaughterers to ship meat across state lines and lift present slaughter limitations. . Beef Wast Seen These limitations have been blamed for some of the current shortages. The former New Maxico ' congressman reported that on a recent cross-country tour with his house food inves tigating committee he found sur plus beef "just being wasted." He p. -dieted that exerc:se of his certifying authority will elimi nate this situation.

For more than a month tht seed should have been germinating in the warm soil. Millions of acres lay implanted because the ground was too wet for preparation of the seed bed and too cold for germination of the seed. Only a generation ago there could have been but one outcome crop shortage and food scar dry. Nature allows scant time for planting when the warm sun waits till late May or June before ' drying the soggy soil. Horses ar too slow and lire too quickly to get the job done then. But th farmers remember May of 1943 only two years ago when their fast, untiring tractors averted crop failure. Then, too, rains flooded the fields and the month was all but spent before they could go in on th land and plant from dark to dark, and longer. Many planted around the clock, working in two or three shifts. They made on of the greatest crops In history, . In today's war-torn world with hunger and disease already stalking many peoples even one major crop failure could bring famine. This Is why the sound of tractors and planting ma chinery was heard, day and night, from th Plains states to the Eastern seaboard why head lights stabbed the darkness over the fields. America's farmers are doing It again, In spite of an unprecedented combination of adverse cir cumstances bad weather, shortages of machines and shortages of manpower. For the second tlm In three years, they are relying upon their tractor-powered machines to help rescue large areas of the world from catastrophe. More of then tractors ar products of International Har vester than of any other company. International Haryzstzr Company In 1943, most farmers drov their tractors "Si'ima" ISO N. Michigan At.
