In the 31 days beginning tomor

This is possible, liquor sourc

mal times they operated only a
few months of the year.
About 40,000,000 gallons of

this will be blended with stocks

Sub Production
Cutback Ordered

eight other types of ships or
weapons.
The announcement gave no
figures either on the cutback or
the existing fleet of underwater
craft. On the basis ot submar
ines known to. be building or in
commission, however, the
American undersea fleet appar
ently is in excess of 200.
