nicipal Court jury of four price
ceiling violation charges, Henry
Sherman, 140O block Morse street
NE, today faces possible maximum
sentence of a $4,000 fine or four
years in Jail or both. The jury ac-
quilted Sherman of a fifth charge.

to permit defense counsel to file
motions for new trial.
Sherman was accused by the OPA
of selling 1000 pounds of potatoes
at 712 cents per pound when the
ceiling price was 512 cents.
Sherman contended that the store
at 1864 G street Sc, where the
transactions allegedly took place, is
operated by his wife and that he was
not responsible for the transactions
The defense also contended that
Mrs. Sherman spoke to an official
of the national OPA who advised
her that she could sell at the 71a
cents per pound price and that an
OPA investigator agreed with this.
The case was prosecuted by AS
sistant United States Attorney Cecil

WA Faces backfire
In Price-Support
Vegetable Program

The Governments call for tn
creased production of potatoes ap-
peared today to have backfired-at
least temporarily-and it finds War
Food Administration officials prepar-
ing for additional gluts in sweet
potatoes and tomatoes.
VIA has acquired so many pota-
toes under its grower price-support
program during the last few weeks
that some may have to be diverted
into livestock feed or go to waste.
Approximately 4,500 cars of early
variety potatoes were purchased by
VIA to keep prices from dropping
below the minimum promised farm
ers when they were asked last winter
to expand production.
5000 Carloads on Hand.
VIA has sold some of its stock
to starch plants, dehydrators and
other professors, but they still have
some 5000 carloads on hand. Of
ficials have under consideration pro-
posals to sell some of the potatoes
for hog feed, though one spokesman
said it was hoped that sit won't
come to that
He said supplies were "tremen-
dous" and about 25 to 80 per cent
above the same period last year.
With sweet potatoes expected to
begin big movement to market in
the next few weeks. the VIA was
faced with similar problem of
oversupply and distribution. The
same situation may arise next month
when tomatoes reach peak produc-
ton. @uA
Meantime, VIA confirmed a re-
port it was preparing an order pro-
hibiting the sale of turkeys to civil
ians during August and possibly
September to permit acquisition Of
supplies for the armed forces.
10 Million Pounds Needed.
The War Department announced
yesterday that such action would be
taken to carry out regulations re-
quiring the serving of turkey to
service men on Thanksgiving and
Christmas.
VIA officials said 100000 pounds
would be required for overseas
forces. No estimate was made as to
needs of servicemen in this country.
The Agriculture Department has
estimated that turkey production
this year will total about 100000, 900
pounds, or about 34,00O,00O birds.
Last year farmers produced 32,5OO-
900 birds.
Col Paul P. Logan of the Quarter
master Corps said turkey meat sup
plies would be ample for both mil
itary and civilian needs. He es-
timated that more than 80 per cent
of the production would be available
for civilians.
