Wallace Is Opposed
To Export Subsidy on
ats and Oils
Secretary Weighs Three
Proposals to Reduce
Huge SurpIuses
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press
Secretary Wallace announced to-
day he had decided against an ex-
port subsidy program on lard or
other fats and oils.
Instead, the Secretary of Agricul-
ture said three proposals are under
consideration for reducing the huge
surpluses of fats and oils.
These are:
Domestic diversion of some of the
surplus fats and oils from edible
channels to the soap trade.
The purchase of lard and possibly
some other pork products for dis
trlbution to the needy. This pro-
gram if it becomes necessary to un-
dertake 1t, probably will begin some
time late this fall.
additional increases in exports
OF lard and soybeans through the
underwriting of sound credit trans
actions. Such a program would be
undertaken by the Export Import
Bank and its possibilities are being
The Secretary made public a de-
partment analysis which said the
sharp increase in stocks of fats and
oils during the past two years prob
ably would be offset this fiscal year
by decrease in imports.
1t added that excise taxes on Coco
nut oil and foreign cottonseed oil
would give domestic fats and oils a
price preference.
AT the same time, department
economists said reciprocal trade
agreements were expected to in
crease exports of American lard and
soybeans.
The analysis said that production
OF American lard will be larger this
year than in any year since 1884"
but that the forecast of a small cot
ton crop indicated a decrease in
production of cottonseed oil.
Wallace said that lard and cotton
seed oil shortening would soon be
made available to those receiving
public assistance through the food
stamp plan He added that later
this fall pork products might be dis
trlbuted under the stamp plan for
dlsposing of farm surpluses.
The Secretary said 257,OOO 900
bushels of corn now under Govern
ment loans would be stored for an
additional year This, he said, would
withhold feeding of this corn to
animals with a resulting reduction
in lard production of 100000 900
pounds.
