v|TAmIN A
 SHORTAGE
 REPORTED

WASHINGTON, April 11.-Gov- ernment scientists have reported the nation faces a serious shortage o1 Vitamin A, with the catch of soup- fin sharks whose livers are the main source of the vitamin dwind- ling rapidly.
 The Fish and Wildlife Service said the present indications are that the consumption of vitamin A is exceeding production, and Vita min A stocks held by producers and pharmaceutical houses totaled about 51 trillion units on February 29 as compared with 88 trillion l2 months before.
 The Service said that the soup- fin shark fishermen. most of whom operate out of Seattle, produced far less in December, January and Feb ruary than in the same months a year earlier. In February they landed only 83,000 pounds of shark livers in Seattle compared with 28O, ,OOO pounds in 1943.
 The Fish and Wildlife Service recalled that two years ago it warned coast fishermen that inten- sified exploitation of the soupfin shark would probably result in early depletion.

BAD NEWS FOR SOLDIERS WHO
 SENT OUT FURS

WASHINGTON, April II. - The Internal Revenue Bureau had bad news for service men in Alaska who sent home animal skins, fur coats and rugs to their mothers and sweethearts, when they told Rep. Norman, Washington Republican, that men will have to pay 20 per- cent tax on the fair market value of the finished products.
 The question was brought up by a Seattle furrier who said he would be unable to complete orders be- fore the tax went into effect on April 1, and asked if the service men would have to pay a tax on the goods not completed at that time. The Bureau said they must pay the tax and the furrier would have to collect it.
