Christmas SHORTAGE
OF Turkeys, Chickens
Hits Traditional Menu

Washington civilians face a
Christmas without the traditional
turkey, and chicken supplies are so
low there will be little opportunity
to use chicken as substitute,
poultry industry spokesman said
last night.
With the War Food Administra-
tion's freeze" on chickens in nearby
States in operation for a week,
wholesale poultry dealers reported
they had no chickens for sale and
predicted that retailers would feel
the pinch this week as holiday buy
ing begins
Joseph B. Danzansky, counsel for
the poultry division of the Merchant
and Manufacturers Association, said
only a "dribble" of chickens was
coming into the city from the West.
Turkeys, he added, were almost
nonexistent in normal supply chan
nels," indicating that some birds
were available through the black
market.
Dealers have tried to tap new
sources of supply in sections of Vir-
ginia not affected by the VIA order
and in North Carolina, also unaf-
fected by the order, but with little
success.
Maj. Gen. Edmund B. Gregory.
quartermaster general, reported yes
terday that the VIA freeze was
producing desired results in cor
recting a chicken deficit for the
Army. He added that he did not
know how long the order would
remain in effect. VIA sources
have indicated it might continue
until spring.
The chicken shortage also was
beginning to be felt by hospitals
and District government institu-
tions, which have counted heavily
on chickens for convalescents and
the infirm.
Roland M. Brennan, District pur-
chasing officer, reported that
through the Welfare and Recrea-
tlonal Association chickens have
been procured for the regular chick
en- dinner of 1000 patients at Gal
linger Hospital and Glenn Dale
Sanatorium today.
