The sequel 10 the slogan
Food VIII Win the War, is
Lack Of Food Can Lose the
Election but that does not
seem 10 have dawned on some
of the political master minds
who are supposed TO keep up
on such things, particularly IN
Congress,
The way words have OF get
ting twisted and exaggerated
out of all proportion in war
tint, lack Of food today means
lack of meat, and lack Of meat
means lack Of beef in the meat
market. There are plenty of
live beef, and plenty of other
meat animals on the hoof,
enough food to keep body and
soul flourishing for that matter,
If equitably distributed. But
such is the perverSeneSs of hu-
man nature that the lack of one
iten of food beef, in this in
STANCES enough TO increase the
demand and create the illusion
that there is an overall lack of
food
The problem o. the moment
i'm solving the foo q situation
therefore boils down to a matter
Of getting more beef moving TO

QUESTION OF SUBSIDIES
The prevailing thought in Con-

sides shall not pass. Congress
p sSed Z law, the Prize Control
Act Of l942, authorizing subsidy
payments apparently without
realizing what IT was doing Of
flee of Price Administration
went ahead to put those sub
sides in effect In an effort 10
hold down further rises in the
cost of living.
Now Congress renegS and even
considers repeating that portion
Of the Price Control Act which
authorizes subsidies. thong III
m any Of the constituents of
the congressman have been liV-
ing off farm subsidies of one
kind and another for years.
Maybe it is proper now 10 call
a halt, but the lack of beef
on the table today is attributable
primarily TO only one thing LIN
certainty on the market caused
by failure of Congress TO take
decisive action on subsidies.
Packers can't be blamed for
cutting prices to stockmen as
result, and Stockmen have not
shipped their beef animals TO
market because they have play
ed the hunch that Congress
would knock out subsidies and
permit the price Of beef to rise
The Only answer which most
Congressman can give for get

to lei the prices rise. That takes
