Frederick Milk Shortage
Made Worse by Cold
BY the Associated Press

BY the Associated Press.
FREDERICK, Md, Dec 21.-As
cold weather made further inroads
on production of milk in this Sec
ton, an already serious shortage of
the product became steadily worse,
local milk dealers said.
One of Frederick's largest dealers
said cows of this area seemed to
have dried up" and he added that
he thought there would be little
improvement in production until the
cold weather is over.
One dealer said he was discon-
tinuing Sunday retail sales. y
Meanwhile, State dairy inspectors
estimated production and distribu-
ton in the local area has decreased
almost so per cent from normal
and predicted rise in the price of
milk and other dairy products.
A serious shortage in concentrated
cattle feed also has developed, P
D. Koons, manager of the farmers
cooperative plant here, said. This
he added, would cut production still
further.
The only solution to the current
shortage, dealers and inspectors de-
clared, would be to import milk from
the Western New York she'd.

BALTIMORE, Dec. 21.-H. A.
Crouthamel, executive secretray of
the Maryland Association of Petro-

charges allowed for tire inspection
| by the Office of Defense Transport
tation was inadequate from the
standpoint of the gas-station op-
orator and excessive for the

were not enough employees to do the
work.
He said the automobile owner
should not be put to additional
expense. He is taxed too much
now"

ton represents nearly 80 gasoline
station owners of the State, said

an expert.

has been subscribed so far this
month and the Victory Fund Drive
is expected to produce another
81 000,000000 by the end of De-
cember.
The campaign this month pro-
duced the greatest outpouring of
money for loans of any compar-
able period in American history.
the Treasury said.
Secretary Morgenthau fixed the
December goal at $4,000 100000.
This figure already has been ex-'
ceeded by $1,229,000,0OO and Mr..
Morgenthau now has raised the
goal to $1,000, 100000
Il am deeply gratified by the su-
perb public response to the fl
nancial needs of our country in
this war" Mr.. Morgenthau said
yesterday. TT will reassure all SOL
diers who are fighting the good
fight"
Mr.. Morgenthau said his an
nouncement of the record borrow
ing was the sort of news the Axis
leaders dread to hear"
Less Inflationary.
The Treasury expressed gratifi-
cation at the December results mot
only because of the amount in
volved but also because of heavy
purchases of securities by other
than commercial banks, the sound
est and least infiationary method
of Treasury borrowing" Investors
other than commercial banks
bought SIS per cent of the securities
purchased up to the close of busl-
ness Saturday.
The loans, with taxes and other
collections of about S2.5OO, 900 900,
promises to bring the Treasury's De-
cember receipts to about S13500,-
o00 900, a sizable chunk of the ma
tlonal income of $4,000, 900. 900
estimated for this year by the Com
merce Department.
Much more than $4,000. 900 900
will be needed" Mr.. Morgenthau
said. and I urge every American
to dig deep into his pockets and
buy more of the securities that will
remain available until December %,
and the tax notes and savings bonds
that Will continue to be on sale"
The extent of December borrow
ings was shown by comparison with
the largest loan previously floated-
the S6,964 ,58l 100 fourth Liberty
loan, raised in three weeks of 1918.
High Interest Rates Hit.
simultaneously with the Treasury
announcement, the Federal Home
Loan Bank Administration issued
statement by Commissioner John
H. Fahey, criticizing the payment
OF high interest rates by some saw
ings institutions.
The policy which has unhappily
been followed in the case of a
certain number of institutions of
paying unduly high interest rates
to attract savings has always been
unsound and dangerous, Mr.. Fa-
hey said. 1T is particularly in
defensible now and should not be
tolerated"
Senator Tydings, Democrat, Of
Maryland, noting that the 77th
Congress appropriated s2O5 900 .OOO.-
600 in two years, said in an address
yesterday that the national debt
may be in the neighborhood of
$3.50, 1000 100000 when the war is
