THE Army reports a serious re-
1 tarding of needed supplies and
equipment during the second quar-
ter of 1914. Such situation sim
ply must not exist. These few items
give you evidence Of what the
Army means:
Truck production was % percent
under quota.
Field guns of $50 nm produced
were only thirds of quota
Heavy generators failed to meet
the schedule by "a percent.
Radios of various types were
from 10 to 35 percent under quota.
Heavy bombs alone must be IN

down of our armies as that would

ly clear that we are not getting
an even distribution of these good
supplies of meat into all sections
of the country. In some areas,
shipments have become so pool

asked us to restore all meats to
rationing. New England has been
one of the sections which has been
affected the most. After careful
and painstaking study, we have
decided to restore better cuts OF
lamb to rationing and the popu-
lar cuts of beef will have their
point values increased one to two
points per pound. This action
should help make more good cuts
of beef available to most areas,
and gradually get a small amount
of lamb into those sections where
there has been almost none at all.
We will. however, watch care
fully for any continued signs OF
poor distribution for other types
of meat. If the situation does not
