Council said the removal of restric-
tions appears to be a step toward
sound meat management as recon-
mended by the livestock and meat
industry
The council, an organization of
trade associations in the meat and
livestock producing industry, said in
statement:
"Today's action by the VIA is a
move in the direction toward getting
the livestock and meat business back
IN order. Consumers may CO.
operate by patriotically observing
rationing-by paying no more than
ceiling prices and buying no more
meat than ration stamps entitle
them to-this will break up black
market operations and, Of supreme
Importance, help speed victory"
At the same time, however, cat
tlemen from "a States. meeting in
Kansas City to advance new meat
management plan, predicted there
would be a near-record marketing
of grass-fed steers in the next six
weeks, and a famine by next spring.
The removal of slaughterlng re-
strictions followed publication of the
Agriculture Department forecast
that 1943 food production would run
per cent higher than last years
record harvest This overall figure
was predicted despite per cent
estimated decline in food crops,
which the VIA said would be more
than offset by production of a.
000000,000 pounds of beef and in
creased chicken and egg production.
through October 20 for the purchase
OF processed foods.
VIA officials said that the re-
moval of restrictions was made to
stimulate early slaughtering of live
stock to relieve the drain on the
feed supply, prevent the overtaxing
of packing house facilities later in
the year, and provide civilians with
larger supply of meat than has
been available for some months.
The announcement said the pro-
hibition against slaughterers paying
less than the support prices for
hogs. or paying more than any OPA
ceiling on hogs would remain in
effect, as would provisions requiring
that meat be stamped with a license
or permit number.

Educational Drive
For Can Collection
In District Mapped

Though only $4,000 pounds of cans
were collected by the Commercial
Tin Can Salvage Committee in the
first drive to pick up used cans at
apartment houses, the collecting
agencies were not at fault. Elwood
Crissy, deputy chief of the Tin Can
Unit of the War Salvage Division
of the WPB, told representatives at
meeting today at the Heurich
Brewery.
The drive to educate the public
as to the necessity of collecting tin
cans must be pushed to the limit. he
added. The recent collection, ac-
cording to Horace Walker, executive
secretary for the District, was a
very poor showing, although it was
far better collection average than
results in Baltimore's drive.
Baltimore collectors received 400
complaints that cans had not been
picked up, but the District commit
tee had only 20.
Mr.. Walker said apartment dwell
ers had not co-operated 100 per cent

must be educated more fully. In
connection with the educational
campaign, the Salvage Committee
plans to distribute leaflets show
ing the values and necessity for
saving cans. The leaflets will be
given out IN bundles of 100 to re-
tailers by bottling agencies, and
plans were discussed to secure CO.
operation of the Boy Scouts in dis
tributing pamphlets at theater en-
frances.
THE collection of tin cans in
apartment houses should be the
responsibility of the individuals and
not left up to resident managers
or janitors," Mr.. Walker said. They
already have enough work to do
without adding this burden"
Committee members said they will
keep up collections on the third
Thursday of each month. All tin
cans, which should be opened at
both ends and flattened, should be
placed in containers at the front
entrances to apartment buildings.

1T was catastrophe A minute
later saw another big bomber do
the same thing. It was further off
flying for an important cracking
plant. Smoke was trailing from
that one, too. Just before reach
ing the target the pilot dove down
into the cracking plant and blew
it up"
Explaining why the Americans
plunged to death with their bombs,
Sergt. Kozak said:
High officers had told us our
mission would be vital, essential to
the Allied armies, and If successful
we'd shorten the war. We'd all
practiced for weeks. each bombar-
dier had his target pinpointed.
From what I know, not one bomb
missed its target"
Sergt. Kozak earned the Distin-
guished Flying Cross for his part in
the recent 2,400-mile, 14-hour
round trip that blasted the Ru-
manian oil field and refineries. He
said the formation of bombers made
the trip at so feet and dropped
100000 pounds of bombs.

Salem, Mass, and I lifted four big
boxes of incendiaries from the floor

Our pilot had to pull up to $50
feet to clear smokestacks. The
plane was filled with smoke from
fires already rolling through the
target area when we got there I
saw other incendiaries hit oil tanks
and some of the bombs I flung from
the window must have done damage.
too. A roar and roll of flames and
black smoke mounted from oil
tanks"
He said the planes were so low
that heavy antiaircraft fire was
ineffective, but light fax was "the
1ercest I've ever seen"
Col. Bleyer dropped to SO feet
again and opened up to get away
from there" he said. I'VE were in
formation with other bombers. Our
top gunner, Technical Sergt. Bob
McCown of Los Angeles. shot down
two pursuit planes after we dropped
our bombs. The rest of us couldn't
get in shot because those high

Big Supply Of Beef

KANSAS CITY. Sept. IA

Nearly 1000 cattlemen are assem-

Government policies on food are
so confusing that feeders are re-
fusing to buy the flood of steers
which are being slaughtered only
pasture-fat, says Frank S. Boice of
Sonoita, Ariz., president of the
American National Livestock Asso-
citation.
Balance Is Sought.
The objective livestock men hope
to accomplish is balancing the
supply of meat animals against
available feed. and producing meat
when and where it is needed.
What We need is a definite, an
nounced plan by the Government
the amount of meat needed and how
we can expect to fulfill the needs. y
declared Claude K. McCan, Victoria
tTeX) rancher. The continue
threat of price ceiling has the
feeder In the position of not know
ing what he can do"
Mr.. Boice said the Government is
missing the significance of the pres
ent run of grass-fat cattle. Eighty
per cent of the 10000 animals ar
irving here Monday were suitable
for feeders. who in six months would
add $50 pounds to each steer, he
explained
Plan Called Answer to Problems.
Instead, the steers are being
slaughtered, with a potential loss of
millions of pounds of beef-"in other
words, we may have a glut of beef
this fall, but we will have a famine
in the spring"

feedmen believe the meat manage
ment plan developed by the live
stock anG meat industry would be
the answer to many of their
problems.
Under this plan, which would
have a flexible scale for meat-point
values, price regulations would be
eliminated with the readily move
able point values intended to regu-
late demand and thus establish
prices to the consumer.
The Government first would take
all the meat it needed.

Hyannis, Nebr., attacked the estab-
