Capital Experiences
Worst Shortage Of
Beef in History
Veal, Lamb and Some
Kinds of Pork Also
Are Hard to Find

Few Washington housewives we're
able to serve beef on their dinner
tables today. Wholesale merchants
reported yesterday that never be-
fore has the supply of beef here
reached so low a point.
This report conceded with a
statement by Leo H. Mccormick,
Maryland State OPA director who
said he was told by officials of the
Food Distribution Administration
and packers that beef stocks in Bal
timore not only had reached an
all-time low, but could be expected
to get worse during the next few
weeks.
Meat of any kind is not abundant
In the Washington area, it was re-
ported. Veal and lamb supplies also
are scarce, and some kinds of pork
products are hard to get. The pork
supply, wholesalers said. has been
better than anything else. But the
summer demand for hams, it was
predicted, would soon exhaust the
small stocks that have been built up
during the past few weeks.
Cuts of Poor Quality.
Housewives have been finding
lately that, while it is still possible
to get meat of some kind, the cuts
from which they must choose are
often of a kind they would not have
considered cooking year ago. Meat
wholesalers here said it was i'm
possible for them to tell what they
would get and when they would get
1t. They explained that they place
their orders as they always have,
but this is mere formality. The
packers send what they can when
1t is available. Wholesalers here
never have an idea what they will
get until it actually arrives.
One wholesaler said he was COM
pletely cleaned out He pointed
out, however, that this condition
has existed before and that meat of
some kind probably will arrive this
week.
Mr., Mccormick explained that the
heavy demands of the armed forces
have been chiefly responsible for
the scarcity of beef
practically all beef is now going
dlrectly from the packers to the
armed services he said. Beef
steaks are practically non-existent
and may remain so for some time
to come.
The beef supply now is just like
the gasoline supply was a couple of
weeks ago when the situation was
crltlcal. There just isn't any"
Butter Also Disappears.
Butter. too, was becoming a scarce
commodity in retail stores, but this
was due largely to the fact that
lobhers we're keeping their supplies
light to avoid monetary losses when
the subsidy-supported rollback goes
INTO effect next Thursday.
On that date, it was explained
prices On butter must be rolled back
. cents a pound all along the line,
from the retailer down to the pro-
queer. The subsidy will be paid to
the producer and any one holding
any butter for which he paid pre-
rollback prices will be forced to take
loss. The result is that iobbers
nave been buying in steadily de-
creaslng quantities to remain as far
as possible on a day-to-day basis
and retailers have been buying their
supplies IN manner calculated to
exhaust their supplies before next
Thursday.
After the rollback take effect, it
was pointed out, butter supplies
should return to normal quickly,

Board hearing on Kaiser shipyard
labor charges ended today.
The hearing before Trial Examiner

The Kaiser yards contended the
AFL had the only available supply

were made.
The examiner will make an in

Allies Neur Ships Goal
By HARRISON SALISBURY

United Press StaR Correspondent
 London, Sept. IA. (UP)-Naval success in the Mediterranean ap- peared today to have put the Allies need at least 10000, ,000 tons in the shipping pool for establishing and keeping a second front in Western Europe.
 Based on published construction and loss statements, the Allies prob- ably gained about 3,500,000 net tons over losses since May through the building program alone.
 Another estimated S,0OO,OO tons was made available through opening of the Mediterranean shipping route, eliminating longer hauls to Cairo and India. The shipping in- crement from Italy's equalization may run between one and two mill lion tons but it was not all clear profit since the bulk will be diverted for supplying the Italian people.
 But the release of warships from the Mediterranean should reduce margin between losses and build ing by reducing sinkings by Nazi U-Boats in the Atlantic. Thus, on these calculations. the Allies already were within a million or two tons of the goal.
