ELSINKI, March 1T-Minister of Supply Vaino Kotilainen told Am erican correspondents Finland faces famine by next summer unless food shipments from the United States are received 10 augment the nations grain stocks. now down to a four month supply.
 The minister said that Finland could be tided over by seven million dollars worth of food sought in the United States, but that the govern ment's request for loan in that amount, as suggested by the Amer ican minister to Finland. had been rejected by the United States.
 Kotilainen expressed amazement at this action.
 Surely the Films proved their good faith in paying their (war) debts he said. He attributed Wash ington's refusal to malicious re- ports abroad" to the, effect that Fin land exports food to Germany.
 The minister added that Finland was the only country using the far northern port of Petsamo and that imports were passing through there Q nobody but the Films and neigh boring Sweden.
 Finland's food stocks are so low he asserted, that his countrymen will be eating pine bark by next summer, as they did during the 1918 famine, unless American and is forthcoming.
