Food Expert Favors Aid

An international agricultural author.
ity armed with powers to provide
financial and technical aid to back
ward nations was suggested today
by F.. L. McDoughall, an Australian
delegate to the United Nations food
conference.
A postwar food program for the
world also should include, he told
reporters, arrangements for supply
ing certain foods to areas periodi-
cally affected by famine. and to
areas where severe undernutrition
exists.
Mr.. McDoughall who Is economic
adviser in London to the Australian
government, has been working re-
Gently with American officials In
Washington on problems of postwar
adjustment. He was member OF
the Nutrition Committee of the
League of Nations.
A sound food program adjusted
to nutritional standards would en-
phasize, he said, the need for
diversiflcation of production in many
countries and regions.
The primitive nature of agricul-
tural equipment and the lack of
knowledge have prevented, he said,
anything like full utilization of
natural resources.
The Australian said there was
need also for an international
authority with a corps of agri-
cultural technical experts to help
undeveloped countries improve their
production and nutrition standards.

Tomorrow Against
Black Mart Vendors
District Units Attorney
Admits Illicit Sole
Of Potatoes Here

United States ATTORNEY Curran
tomorrow will be asked to issue war
rants against persons charged with
black market operations in potatoes,
it was revealed today by John Las
key, chief attorney for the District
Once OF Price Administration.
Mr.. Laskey said the widespread
violations OF price ceilings on pota-
toes" called for vigorous enforce
ment action" 1t was the first time
that any one at District OPA ofIl-
cially had admitted the existence of
black market operations in potatoes
Probers Worked Quietly.
1t was known that OPA investi-
gators for some time have been op-
Grating quietly in an attempt to
collect evidence against persons con-
nected with the source of potato
black markets. For this reason. off,
cials several times have indicated
that they were not anxious to pros
ecute small retailers who sell pota-
toes at bove-ceiling prices.
Mr.. Laskey said he already had
been in conference with the United
States attorney and that tomorrow
he expects to ask for the issuance
of warrants. He denounced efforts
of certain marketers to profit on
the scarcity of an essential food
commodity"
Retailers Called Victims, Too.
Most small retailers who have
been selling potatoes at prices above
the legal ceilings, it appeared, did
not profit from the sales except
insofar as they we're able to furnish
their customers with much
desired commodity. Most of these
retailers paid excessive prices for
the potatoes, in itself an illegal act
but they resold them at profit mar
gins consistent with the OPAs
markup policy. it was indicated.
Such violations are said to have
become commonplace during the
past week or two, and OPA officials
were known to have taken the atti-
tude that to enforce the regulations
against these small time" offenders
would serve only to drive under
ground the real perpetrators of the
black markets-the shippers, truck
ers or other persons responsible for
unloading the illegal stock on the
local markets.
