Farm Tool SHORTAGE
Feared Because Of
Defense ALLEGATIONS
Agricultural OffieioIs
Won't Food Closed
As War Material
~ the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
Agriculture Department officials
we're perturbed today over what they
said was the failure of defense
authorities TO recognize agriculture S
needs for machinery and farm
equipment if it is to meet unprece-
dented food requirements.
Farmers. these officials said, face
a stupendous task in stepping up
production of meats. dairy and
poultry products, and vegetables to
supply sharply expanding domestic
market and large part of Great
Britan's needs. Many farmers have
reported that they may be unable
to meet their individual production
goals unless they get additional
equipment.
The Office of Production Manage
ment has allotted materials for only
80 per cent OF farm equipment sold
during the last quarter of 1910.
Agriculture Department officials say
this allotment is sufficient to meet
farmers most urgent needs" if
farmers defer purchase of every
thing not Immediately needed.
The sharpest pinch is being felt.
these officials said, in equipment
needed by dairy and poultry farmers.
officials Hard to Convince.
One high placed farm official said
the Agriculture Department was ex-
periencing great difficulty" in con-
vincing priority authorities that the
production Of food should be con-
sidered just as much a defense in
dustry as production Of airplanes,
tanks and munitions.
This official said defense authori-
ties were inclined to confuse sur
pluses of agricultural raw materials.
such az corn. wheat and other live
stock feeds. with plentiful food sup
plies. Machinery is necessary. he
said. to convert these materials into
food products.
Farm machinery needs have been
Intensified. 1t was said. bv q grow

movement of many rural workers to

cities for work in defense industries.
The department is making a sur
vey to determine farm machinery re-
pair needs. Farmers are being urged
TO make their needs known to deal
ers as soon as possible so that manu-
facturers can estimate demand and
plan their plant operations accord
