Average American's
Diet Said. Changed
Madison, Wis. (U.R) The
average American eats about the
same amount of food as he did
50 years ago, but the kind of
food eaten has changed consider
ably, according to a U.S. Dairy
association survey.
Consumption increases were
reported in eggs, meats, poultry,
fish, citrus fruits, green leafy
and yellow vegetables, sweets
such as sugar and syrups, and in
all dairy' products except butter.
The average person today also
eats only about half the amount
of potatoes, sweet potatoes, flour
and cornmeal he .did 50 years
ago.
The American food supply is
eight per cent lower in calories
than in the early 1900's and we
are currently using more higher
priced foods than ever before.
New methods of preservation
and shipping have brought a
lot of one-season foods to mark
et all year around. Use of fresh,
frozen, and canned oranges has
more than doubled, and ice
cream has become an important
part of the diet.
The USDA says that rigid in
spection, grading, and sanitary
control have led to higher qual
ity products.

Portland, Seattle
Subsidies Set Back
Portland (U.R) The battle
of Portland and Seattle to ob
tain subsidized cargo loadings
in competition with San Fran
cisco has received a setback, ac
cording to an announcement to
the Portland Dock Commission
yesterday.
The commission learned that
Pacific Far East Lines had filed
an appeal from a maritime board
order directing subsidized lines
to halt their rate equalization
practice which channeled North
west products to San Francisco
for shipping. . "
Thomas L. White, attorney for
the commission, said the appeal
by PFE had the effect of setting
aside the maritime board's order.
Subsidized lines will be able to
continue the practice which the
maritime board said weakened
the steamship cargo service out
of Portland and Seattle by di
verting to San Francisco prod
ucts that would otherwise be
shipped from Northwest ports.
Fresh fruits and dairy products
were excepted from the mari
time board's order. "
The order, dated Oct. 12, had
been hailed as a victory for
Portland and Seattle ports.
