PAGE TWO HERALD AND NEWS, KLAMATH FALLS, OREGON APPEAL MADE I N WEST COAST MEAT SHORTAGE SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 18 ff) The Pacific coast's meat shortage was brought urgently to the ttentlon of the federal gov ernment today by restaurants feeding 30,000 defense workers In a shipyard boom town. The restaurants threatened to close because they cannot get meat. The town is Richmond, San Francisco bay site of four of Henry J. Kaiser's record-break ing shipyards. Might As Well CJose Mrs. Mattie Chandler, mayor of Richmond, asking the govern ment to boost OPA meat quotas and take other actions to supply meat, said: 'The restaurants say if they can't get meat, they might as well close, because these war workers are big meat eaters. Population Boom Mayor Chandler said that nine butcher shops in Richmond al ready had closed because of lack of supplies. She declared that OPA quotas provided normal meat supplies for 15,000 persons when actually Richmond has a population of 100,000, a 73,000 increase in a year because of war industry activities. SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 18 (ff) Slaughterhouse workers agreed unanimously Tuesday to go back to work when an emergency committee assured them their wage arbitration would be speeded up. Milton Maxwell, international vice president of the Amalgamat ed Meat Cutters and Butcher workmen, said work would be resumed at 10 closed packing plants Wednesday morning. Lack of meat had closed vir tually every meat market in San Francisco and most of the bay area communities. Maxwell said it would be Thursday at the earliest before pork and lamb could be supplied to the shops, and Friday before beef deliveries could be made. , If it's a "frozen" article you need, advertise for a used one In the classified.
