In ending butter rationing last month, officials reported the supply would not meet the full unrationcd demand. How ever they explained that 100, 000,000 pounds of government butter was being released to civi lians and should help tide the nation over the winter's low pro duction season. The army this week asked the Agriculture department to halt the sales. It is expected that the military may recall about 23,000,000 pounds scheduled to augment civilian stocks. This amounts to nearly a week's sup ply for the nation. 8 SHOPPY 1LD FLO CUTS Livestock Portland, Or., Dee. 14 (UP, Lfvoitock: Cattle 35, C. lives 10.
