Tenth Of All j. ). Food
Goes 10 Lease-Lend,
Estimate Shows

One-tenth Of the Nations total
food supplies has gone to lease lend
during the first nine months of this
year, and the percentage may in
crease to IL by the end of 1943, the
Foreign Economic Administration
estimated today.
In a breakdown of food supplies
going overseas to Great Britain,
Russia and other United Nations,
FEA said that during the period
ended September 30, shipments of
all meats totaled l 1,7182OO, 900 pounds,
or 9.6 per cent of all supplies.
Shipment of all milk products
amounted to 2,911 100000 pounds. or
81 per cent of available supplies.
The 42,2OO,00O pounds of butter
shipped abroad-ameunting to 7
per cent of the overall supply-went
to Russia and was used exclusively
Tor the armed forces, principally for
conValescent Russian soldiers, FEA
said.
The agency stressed that rela-
lively small amounts of foods which
are IN short supply in this country
are being exported under lease-lend
For instance, shipments of canned
vegetables were l per cent of sup
ply, while canned fruits and Juices
totaled 2.5 per cent.
Since the lease-lend program
started, FEA said, the United States
has received from Australia and New
Zealand almost as much beef and
veal as we exported to foreign
countries.
Beef and veal exports for the nine
months amounted to 95,20O, 900
pounds; lamb and mutton, 81 800, 900
pounds, and pork, 1885 400, 900
the survey showed.

since the hog-corn ratio makes II
more profitable for Midwest farmers
to feed their corn to hogs than to
sell the grain at present ceiling
prices. Protein feeds, necessary to
maintain milk production, are as
difficult to obtain as corn, the sur
vey said.
Among Virginia farmers, w. G..
Wood, Sperryville; R. C. Quaintance.
Woodville; Silas Miller, Sperryville,
and James E. Arnold, Lucketts, re-
ported they are carrying less live
stock because Of the feed shortage.
Faces Liquidation.
In Maryland, William R. Powell.
manager of 300-head dairy farm
near Ellicott City. said he would be
forced to liquidate if feed is not
made available.
Bruce B. Derrick, secretary
treasurer of the Maryland and Vir-
ginia Milk Producers Association,
reported that his members had a
visible feed supply" of about 20
days. Normal is supply of 60 to 80
days, Mr.. Derrick said.
1--WE have had a lot of promises
that feed will move,' Mr. Derrick
said. "but when you try to pin it
down nothing happens. Frankly, I
hate to see February and March
come, because if we are on a hand
to-mouth basis today we will really
be in bad shape by then"

With two more davs of collecting

With two more days of collecting
this week to be added to the tre-
mendous quantity of paper already
brought in since Monday, schools
cooperating in The Evening Star
PTA Salvage-for-Victory program
will have reached the 100000 pound
mark before the end of the week.
In six weeks the schools have ac-
complished as much as was recorded

schools are far ahead of their marks
for the same period.
Alice Deal Junior High School,
which last week led the city with
total of 53,170 pounds, had less than
1000 pounds to its credit at the end
of II weeks in the original drive.
Jefferson Junior High, leading in
1912 after IL weeks with 1892
pounds, has more than $1,000 pounds
recorded.
Alice Deal has now collected more
than double the entire amount the
school produced in seven months in
1912. jefferson has reached nearly
half its total of that same period
when it finished fourth. Randall
Junior High, with approximately So
900 pounds. now is ahead Of the
seven-month total.
Shaw Junior High, with 39,444
pounds, is less than 5000 pounds
short of it's 1912 figure.
Additional schools are coming into
the campaign every week and with
the addition of Stevens and st. Au-
gustine's in the District the WASH
ington participants now total an
even 100.
Montgomery and Prince Georges
Counties have added 10 more schools
and the Junior Wave organization,
which has its headquarters at Grace
Church, in Silver Spring. Md. The
Maryland schools joining the pro-
gram are Four Corners, East Silver
Spring, Somerset, Columbia Park,
Silver Spring intermediate, Our

The v-mail ballots would be re-
turned to the secretaries of State

election officials in the serviceman's
home precinct. Ballots reaching the
home district within two weeks after
election day would be counted.
This procedure would apply only

ber, 1914. To vote in a State pri-
mary, an overseas serviceman would
be required to apply to his secretary
of State for an official absentee

Similarly, service men and women

people to receive public informa-
ton free OF governmental re-
strictions and control.
A pattern IL being established
which. IL continued, will stifle
the right of free inquiry and

The government should not
use voluntary censorship TO serve
Its convenience and interest. We
should strongly hold to the prin-
ciple that In the United States
the people have right to
participate In public decisions.
The government should not
withhold nor restrict infOrma-
ton on the food conference.

might embarrass proceedings.
ACCESS RESTRICTED

Dangerous precedents are be-
Ing established which will hide
In cloud OF public misunder-
standing and doubt, the solution

are being openly arrived at.
This policy should be aban-
doned. 1t promotes distrust OF
