Washington.--The worst outbreak
Of foot and mouth disease ever known
in the United States is the secretary
nj agriculture's estimate OF the live
stock problem which has forced fed
eral authorities to quarantine over six
states, and threatens a temporary re-
duction of the nations food supply.
An emergency appropriation by con-
gress may be required to finance the
campaign to suppress the epidemic.
Officials said it would be a week be-
fore they could forecast the extent to
which the food supply would be az
fected. They are inclined to believe,
however, that the shrinkage will not
be large. Every possible effort will
be made to remove handicaps upon
the movement Of live stock.
The quarantine does not prevent
the shipment Of stock from unaffected
| districts to slaughter houses within
the quarantined area and there is nc
embargo against the shipment o.
dressed meat.
New York and Maryland were add
ed to the list of guaranteed states. a

by federal authorities include New

though no case has as yet been fount
