Another Spud Shortage Due WASHINGTON im There may be another potato shortage next spring, the Agriculture Depart ment snid today. Basing its outlook on the Sept. 1 croD rerjort. the department said for 1953 as a whole, however, farm ers probably will produce more potatoes and other fresh market crops than in 1992 u uie weatner is average or better. It added that supply and demand prospects Indicate prices will aver age slightly below uils years levels. A seasonal drop in potato prices is exrjected when the 1952 late crop begins to move in volume, the re port added. Next year's production of truck crops may be larger than this year wnen untavoraoie weainer in some areas reduced ine yields. causing alternate periods of glut and scarcity and snarp price var lations. the department said. Because of relatively high prices received for most truck crops in the last two years, the department predicted growers nicely win at tempt to produce at least as large a volume as this year and In that event grower and consumer prices probably win average a little lower than In 1952. The department snid prices for canned and frozen vegetables from now until mid-1953 are expected to remain generally near present levels.

HILL BATTLE As lighting raged for the hills. frout line otiicers called this big gest Red assault in a year a "lim ited offensive." It so far had been unable to dent the main Allied rjositions. but there was no letup.
