0pA 10 Ration
Baby Foods
Point System
to Govern infants

WASHINGTON, Jan. II Up
- The Office of Price Admins
tration announced today that
many canned baby foods will be
rationed under the same point
system to be used for rationing
of processed fruits and vegeta-
bleS.
Harold B. Rowe, director Of
OPA's foods rationing division,
said the announcement was in
tended ito clarity any misun-
derstanding that may exist re-
garding the baby foods that are
to be included in the new ra-
tioning program.
No date has been set for the
start of point rationing of pro-
cessed fruits and vegetables, but
the program will begin as soon
as OPA has set up necessary ma
chinery. Points required in the
purchase of various items will
vary depending upon their scar
city.
The number of foods which
OPA may ration was increased
yesterday to cover evapOrated
and condensed milk. canned fish
and shellfish, jams, jellies, pre-
serves, pickles, relishes and cam
ned products containing meat
but at his first press confer.
ence price administrator Prem
tiss M. Brown said that did not
mean they would be put under
rationing immediately
Brown told reporters he had
been asked by Secretary Of Ag-
riculture WiCkard to explain
that including the extra items
along with processed fruits and
vegetables was not intended to
indicate their immediate inclu-
sion in point rationing.
Baby foods to be rationed,
Rowe said, will include strained
or chopped foods made of
fruits, vegetables, or meats and
put up in sealed cans or glass
jars. generally 4 u or 6l2 ounce
containers.
Baby foods as canned milk,
canned milk formulas and pre-
pared cereals, are not included
among the processed foods to be
rationed.
The inclusion of many canned
baby foods in the rationing pro-
gram, Rowe said, lis not neces-
sarily an indication that sup
plies are short" but rather a
move to safeguard supplies for
the purpose for which they are
intended.

We control only an eight by

Dear Mr. and Mrs. Reed:
Here I am in California. It isn't
too bad from what I have seen of it..
This camp is basic training CEN
ter. They train cadets and draftees
here. In the outfit I'm in is cadets
only. They are trying something
new for the cadets. We will stay
here for a short period and they,
or I should say we, take basic train
ing that all soldiers receive. We
are classified as privates but are
under cadet rules and regulations.
We are under demerit system used
at West Point. ~a .
From here God only knows where
we CO.. From rumors we. will be
out of here within the next 10 days
or so. To date we have been here
Is days. s>"-. ~ .
Thanks a million for the paper.
Even though I have only been away
a short time I appreciate it very
much.
Shay Fyfe really had a very inter-
esting letter. Around the barracks
it is a joke about the army doctors.
They say they have good docs if
you can find them and good hos
pitfalls but they aren't here.
This is a new camp. Most of it
has come up during the last part of
January. -.
I am sending you a paper put out
here at the camp.
You can imagine how the word
went around when it was found out
that Freddie Bartholomew was here.
He is taking the very same training
we cadets are. He is to be a member
of the ground crew.
Guess that is 80 for while.
