Chester Bowles, OPA head, said today in a letter to Senator Thomas (H-ldaho). Bowles expressed belief, how ever, that - this has been due Dartly' at least to labor shortages. Bowles' letter replied to a re quest by Thomas for higher ceil ing prices' on lamb carcasses to permit Increased returns .on .live animals. Thomas said that be cause of increased labor, equip ment and feed costs over the past two years, many sheepmen have been forced to sell their herds and go into other businesses. "This office has been, con cerned over the liquidation tak ing place in the-past two years." Bowles wrote. ' "However, the war food administration, which is responsible for.the farm pro duction program, has made no recommendation for any change in . our price ceilings to obtain production for war purposes. .. "It is our impression that the liquidation is partly due to sheer snoriage ut situiea mooc . . . ana that some producers have changed to cattle because of their labor requirements." - 1 The price administration add ed, however, that the lamb situa tion would be- studied- further. and Thomas announced that he would continue to press his de mands for higher prices.- - Medford May Get; New Building : WASHINGTON, -Aprji 3-.(P- uareiui consideration ' win be given needs for.a new federal' bi nge.

Hitson was in a declevity with four other marijies-on D-day on the island, they all got hit hard and he was k n i c k e d and scratched by shrapnel. He went back for tnree days running, each night counting new punc tures in his skin made by enemy fire. The fourth day. he decided to have some of the dirt cleaned out of his chest wounds before he went back into the-firing zone. The medical examiner, afraid of infection,' evacuated him. In a letter to his folks, Hitson wrote: "I figured we could se cure the island in a day or two. and our unit would not go back on line. .We were, pretty badly shot up. I see I was wrong. I wouldn't have left if I had known. Not that I liked any part of that island but I hated to leave all my buddies back there."... Hitson said he was "plenty scared" at times, but not half as scared as he thought he would be. He was - too busy. He was too busy, too, to collect souvenirs,- but the bhe he did bring' back was the only one he would ask for anyway. That was yours truly. Earl's brother, Charles A. Hit son lost his life in the North At lantic in February 3, J943. Pvt. Elbert C. Mathes. 28. of Klamath Falls, is temporarily resting-at the spacious Biltmore hotel section of the armv eround and service forces redistribution station at Santa Barbara, Calif. He is awaiting assignment to new duties following his recent re turn- irom 3Z months of overseas service. ' The' Klamath Falls veteran served in the entertainment and recreation division of the special services in Alaska. Prior to en listing in the army in July 11, 1941, Mathes was employed by me awauna box company. WASHINGTON, April 3 (P A war food administration spokesman told senate investi gators today that minimum lend lease and relief food needs can not be met without further- re duction in civilian consumption. Lt. Col. H. W. Olmstcad, chair man of WFA's food allocations committee, said that whether such a reduction in the United States and Canada is feasible "is largely a matter of whether adequate controls could be de vised and enforced that would achieve a sufficiently equitable distribution of the reduced sup ply." Olmstead presented to the sen ate agriculture committee a broad summary of the allied food situation in which he said that "discrepancies between supplies and requirements are becoming greater." "Serious shortages," he said, "are rapidly developing for meats, fats and oils, dairy prod ucts, dry eggs, sugar and rice. . "The basic reason for the in creasing shortages in prospect for 1945 may be stated very simply: supplies are down and requirements are up." In order to meet the 1945 situation as far as possible, Olm stead said, stocks of scarce com modities in both the United States and the British Empire will be "reduced to the work ing minimum.'!
