Meat Shortage Soon
 MayBe Only Memory
By FRED BAILEY

United Press Staff Correspondent
 Washington, July 15-CUP)-The meat shortage soon may be relieved by a sharp upturn in livestock marketing, War Food Administra- tion officials said today.
 They based the prediction on the acute shortage of corn and other grains on the market, dry south western ranges that may force early shipment of cattle from that area, and the abnormally large number of hogs and cattle on farms.
 So strong is the conviction of some officials that a rush of live stock to markets will develop with in the next few weeks that they again are studyidng allotment plans to prevent a sWamping of slaughter facilities.
 The plan, under which marketing permits would be issued to livestock producers to prevent market glut, were developed last winter by Sec retary of Agriculture Claude R. Wickard to handle the rcord num- bers of hogs and cattle expected to reach markets last spring.
 Storage Facilities Poor
 Food officials emphasized that a more severe meat shortage than at present may follow large-scale mar ketings that would reduce livestock numbers on farms. Storage facili- ties are insufficient to hold large quantities of meat.
 The weather bureau said that while livestock generally continue in good condition there is develop ing a rather widespread need for rain to maintain growth of pastures and ranges over much of the central and western portions of the coun- try"
 In the southwestern grazing area, the bureau said, the range is spot ted, with moisture badly needed in some sections. Texas ranges were said to be holding up very well, with the stock good but marketing slow.
 The war meat board reported in Chicago that the movement of beef to market recently has increased and that for the first time in months the armed service require ments are being met. Packers are required to set aside 45 per cent of certain grades of steer and heifer beef for the armed services.
 There is no indication yet that civilian meat ration allowances will be increased this year. In recent weks, most civilians have been un- able to obtain as much meat, par
