Last week $2 a hundred was taken'"off the farm price of fa t cattle and Iajnba. Nothing will ‘bring about-greater scarcity of food than such a practice, To make PROSPECTS FOR MEAT ^ * War Mobilixer Vinson has announced a four point pro gram to increase m ea t supplies* Cattle feeders are to be -paid a half cent a pound bounty on AA and A grade cattle, sold to slaughterers, if the animals have been owned a t least a month. The second provision is an extra 1-4 cent a pound to packers on I no mutter who is president, all beef to enable them to pay higher prices, without raising | comparison odious, the government selling prices. Step number three is a promise not to reduce I boosts the subsidy to packers. Such ceiling prices on cattle overnight but to give a t least six months I must be interesting news to a farmer warning of any change. Finally, packers a te to have a subsidy I ;hat has carried the New Peal red of 1.7 cents a pound, live weight on hogs instead of 1.3 cents a tj fug. present. We should like to believe th a t these steps will mean more . meat on dining room tables, but we doubt if tha t is to be expect* ■ed. The action is inadequate with reference to beef, and t 00 late to have any effect for a long time as regards pork; The moves to increase feeding operations constitute an a t ­ tempt to undo the harm done by previous governmental mis-1 been connected once with a dog track O. P. Van Schoik, .New Deal Dem- crat; who was* given a post in the aighway department, has lost his job when Gov. Lausche ordered him re moved when Me learned " 0 , P.” bed takes* Two years ago OPA officials decided to cut the produc­ tion of the kind of cattle affected by the half cent subsidy. They told a committee of farmers from central Illinois who went to Washington to protest th a t they should ge t out of business for there was no place for them in war time For the feeders to operate, there had to be an adequate • spread between the ’price per pound of skinny cattle off the range and of the big, fully developed steers but of the cornpelt feed lots. OPA’s price differentials were such tha t the long feeders couldn't function. Short feeding expanded somewhat but the. producers of AA and A cattle had to quit or change their way of doing business. If the consequence had been only tha t some choice beef was no longer available, the loss would not have been serious. But the marketing of partly grown animals affected the total meat supply. ' A 1,400 pound steer dresses out a t 60 per cent and thus produces 840 pounds of food. The 700 pound steer dresses out a t 40 percent yielding only 280 pounds of food. For every steer tha t wasmarketed a t 700 pounds which would have been-developed to 1,400 pounds, there was a loss of two-thirds of the potential meat. -The half cent gratuity will mean little to the feeders, unless cattle from the plains are availabe at a low-price. Nor will the new subsidy on hogs, with ceilings remaining . what they are, bring significant changes for a long time, The government waited eight months too long in acting. The im­ portant breeding is done-in the fall for spring litters. I t will be next spring before we get the little pigs tha t will grow, into porkers to be marketed in the winter of 1946, to be cured, in time for Easter dinner in 1947. Moreover, the amount of breed­ ing-that will be done in the fall will depend upon the size of the com crop and the ratio that farmers expect will exist between . the price of hogs and .the price of corn six months later. The evil th a t was done last year in discouraging hog production by calling on hog farmers to cut production,, by shifts in the price ceilings, and by failure to bring relief to gutted markets by re­ laxing rationing promptly, will affect, the supply of ham, pork, and bacon for a long time to come. - .. . I t is iierhaps not out of place to recall ,tha t a t the time we pleaded earnestly with the government to alter its policies be­ fore it was too late.. We asserted repeatedly tha t the moves 1 were misguided and would result in shortages. It is small sat- " isfaction tha t those in control now see the error of their' ways, for there must be hardship until the consequences of their acts . have been fully overcome Some time into the future.' We hope that other unsound war time^'measures will be reviewed before another crisis developes. —Chicago Tribune The nation is to be. treated to another panacea to cure the meat situation after numerous attempts to do the impossible— give the. American people meat on overnight notice as if a beef or a hog could be placed on •the butcher's block as by magic. That practical plans cannot be devised or put into successful operation by unexperienced and unpractical executives, ip best proven by the fact th a t consumers have found the meat situa­ tion growing worse, instead of better. The War Food Admin- " istration And the OPA have bungled domestic affairs as no other set of officials could have possibly done and yetrthey are still on the job and the administration has made no effort thus fa r to remove the source of the trouble., The latert proposal of one pent here and a half cent there is not going to induce the farmer or the feeder to break his heck to risk Investment even on an administration promise of no re­ duction in price under six months notice. Subsidies for the pack­ ers is only taking the income taxpayer's money to guarantee the packer. No mention is made of spending a cent or even guaran­ teeing a reasonable profit to the farmer or feeder. The latest remedy suggested means little or nothing to the farm producer • nor will it be taken as an inducement to expand to produce even greater quantities of nieat, There has never been a suggestion made in Washington By ' ah administration executive th a t could be reasoned as a step to­ wards giving the farmer some recognition whereby hecoult put his livestock on th e market without strihgs to it a t a reason able price, created and maintained by the simple'law Of supply and demand* I t seems the administration wants to unlold somelaew device with hidden meaning whenever the farm price bobs up ih Washington. During Worid War I hogs brought $23 a hundred in the local market! "The price per pound of prime steak or ham in those days was no where as high as it is today —if you are for­ tunate enough to find it. We do not hear complaint of the buy ing public about the retail price of meat. The public wants and will have meat, juBt as a large element wanted liquor back ' jn the days of prohibition.’ To get meat' now the blackmarket is looked upon by many as a necessity and is evidently openly supported by the public. It is a creature of its own making by 'Acts of the WFA and OPA, probably aided by other adminis- • trative agencies. The public has a right to be suspicious of any plan devised to cure the meat shortage. The farmer has more reason be­ cause he has been tricked by broken promises by’department agencies* With a nation crying for meat, sugar and other foods yet the administration promises no relief. However we find in some quarters in official Washington th a t sugar is alloted in great quantities -for the manufacture of beer with the home canning aeason a t hand. Yet, the administration will this year pay farmers for not raising com, sugar cane, sugar beets and other restricted food products. The cry of the race horse fraternity and millions of race horse gamblers is heard aiid action is taken for relief by lifting the ban to permit racing and also the ban to throw open the liquor dispensories th a t Jimmy Byrnes thought should be -kept closed afte r curfew. President Truman inherited a bad sit­ uation With many federal departments th a t were canker ihfest* ed* The President cannot clean house from top to bottom with foreign entanglements as they are. The public is willing to bear ’what we are going through fo r a tifrie—but patience seems to' be a virtue in this cite*. How long it Will be endured Will depend On what the White House does in the near future. War Mobilizer Vinson has outlined an elaborate food pro-1 gram th a t may appeal to the public but will not be met with acclaim among fanners and feeders, Within the past week the price of both cattle and lambs has dropped where It will hurt the livestock feeder. The WFA and the OPA, especially the is held direetly responsible by the closing of packing Its which has withheld the turnover of live stock. That one baa more influence with the farmer than all the p iaa en r .» promises H r. Vinson can propose or put Into effect.

Of course if there was anything that would reflect on the management it would he natural that the rule of cen sorship should be applied. But what about the public ? What about the in mates th a t, had given their all for their country ? There are Ne.w Deal ers that would imprison the Advocate Reporter. It is another case such as Reporter Kennedy had to endure be­ cause he beat a lot of “copy takers” under the Elmer Davis censorship in Europe, that "broke faith” with, the New Deal, to keep the faith with the millions of American parents that had sons abroad. Kennedy did not wail for the British to publish the surrend­ er first. He gave it to the Associated Press, his employer.

Gardner, Hamilton, In the House'on Monday. He charged Thomas L. Conlan," chief enforcement attorney for-'the OPA a t Cincinnati, Jismissed C. Herbert Clejnans, to get him out of the way fqr, Robert. Yelton, an employee of an automobile finance company. Gardner charges? Yelton made a miserable failure in a recent hearing. Gardner also takes a fling a t Johh E. Robinson Jr. and his chief enforcement attorney. Some day a Jot of history will be written about OPA doings and how' it was operated and who profited by it: Certainly not the public. Some time ago we ha£ lunch with a. Cincinnati business man. When asked where he usually went jockinglysaid, "A lot of us fellows always aim to eat where we- can get the widest variety and the best and we get it where the OPA heads eat. He also included that the best liquor was always found where OPA heads spent their, leisure hours.”. The com­ ments applied to Cincinnati. For pure horse-play the War Food Administration takes all honors. A few months ago an Indians congress­ man exposed the burning of several hundred thousand pounds of dried milk at Kokomo, Ind .,thatwas owned by the Commodity pred^t, Corporation and paid for out of income tax funds. The congressman took a sample of it and had it analyzed and found it to be good and up to standard yet the gov­ ernment agency held it was spoiled. In, Feb. the WFA took over 56«per- centof all orange juice and on March 12 the WFA offered for” sale 11,566 cases of t£e 1943 pack. The day the OPA increased points-on many canned goods the WFA offered for sale 728,- 860 cases of canned peas. When the points were raised the WFA Stated a serious shortage! of peas was evident. Then 400,000 cases of green, beans go oh the auction- block after peas were increased in point value. The gov­ ernment hathan excess of 15,600 cases of tomatoes. The best Joke was the Jry about shortening (lard) when the OPA raised the point value about a week ago saying there was a scarcity for our soldiers and lepd-lease. While millions of pounds of lard went to the soap factories later the government sold 1,628,797 pounds o f shortening and in "the same breath crying a shortage, Who has been purchasing this excess feed? How much does it bring the government? Why could it not be used to feed the starving in Europe? These are questions you must answer for yourself. It is only part of the New Deal system of waste oecause of the iheompetahee of those placed in authority, or should we stla-; pect private profit pocketed by politi-' cal stool pigeons ? in center of town, -May 16.
