Burton Urges Allies
To Set Up Postwar
ORGANIZATION Now
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
BOSTON, May Ex-senator Bur-
ton, Republican. of Ohio declared
today that representatives of all the
United Nations should meet imme-
diately to form an organization to
maintain peace and security" after
the war.
Addressing a Boston City Club
luncheon, Senator Burton said:
IF we are now to translate fine
words into deeds, there must be
established at the earliest practic-
able date a general international
organization open to membership
by at least all the United Nations.
large or small, and flexible enough
to meet the changing needs of the
future in maintaining international
peace and security"
Unity Emphasized.
He said failure to make tangible
progress with plans for the peace
while the war is going on would be
as serious a failure in our wartime
duties as If our generals failed to
plan their next military campaigns
while fighting the battles of today"
'It is important that there be no
period Of uncertainty following the
release of the force of common dan
ger from the enemy that holds us
together with the urge of self
preservation in the face of murder
olls attack" he added
This makes it important that
agreements for peacetime unity re-
ceive substantial and widespread
approval before the coming of peace.
Only in unity is there reasonable
promise of peace. The chances Of
reaching such understanding in time
Of war are better than they will be
in time of peace"
Big Handicap for Recovery.
Senator Burton said that the
United States would face her post
war recovery under the greatest
handicap in history. Her taxes will
far exceed those before the war and
her debt will be at least 10 times
what 1t was before the war"
I'VE must pay these taxes and
service this debt" he asserted. 1.-THE
bonds evidencing our national debt
are held by every bank, insurance
company, church, trustee and prac-
ttcally every family in America. De-
fault on 1t would mean depression,
unemployment and suffering.
ITO carry these taxes and this
debt, we must create a condition of
abundance. We must have a pro-
duction Of real wealth in America
that will exceed our production be-
fore the war"

ood Supply Good
But Rationing. Must
Continue, owl Says
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
The food supply is good and will
remain good for some months, but
rationing "of one type Of food or
another" will be with us for the
duration, the ONCE Of War Infor-
nation reveals In a report on the
food outlook.
People "all along the line from
the plow to the plate" have made
the food situation as good as it is,
owl said, but 1t added thats7the
food battle cannot be sconsidered
won until much more is accom-
plished.
Specifically, 100000 city folk are
said to be needed to help the small
est farm population in three decades
harvest the biggest crops in history.
The present ration-free status of
most meats should prevail for sew
eral months, owl said, but the
choicer cuts and grades Of beef,
pork, veal and lamb may be more
scarce later in the year.
"Our supplies Of fresh vegetables
and fruits are adequate, as well as
those of milk, eggs, poultry, fats and
oils" the report said.
"The sugar situation, however. Is
still difficult and civilian supplies
of the principal commercially
canned vegetables for the pack year
beginning July will be the shortest
in years"
The present point-holiday on
canned vegetables was termed only
temporary, and points will be re-
stored at q date now unpredictable.
Twenty per cent less canned vege-
tables will be available for civilians
in the year starting July than in
the current year. while Is per cent
drop will be felt in tomato and other
vegetable juices. The owl said the
reason is an estimated 10 per cent
greater demand by the Army and
Navy.
On the other hand, there will be
q 28 per cent increase III the civilian
supply of baby foods, canned soups,
