EXPECT INCREASED
NEED FOR SALVAGED
FATS Of KITCHENS
Total Supply To Decline AS
Lard Production Drops In
Next II Months

Helena, Nov. 1.-The belief of
some housewives, reported to the
war food administration, that waste
kitchen fats are not needed since
the removal from rationing of lard
and cooking oils, was today termed
definitely mistaken" by William A.
Allen, district representative of the
VIA, office of distribution.
"On- the contrary" Allan said,
"our total national supply of fats
and oils will decrease during the
next II months, with lard produc-
ton expected to drop as much as
one billion pounds. Former Orien-
tai sources of supply are denied US
until the Japs can be driven out of
the Philippines, Malaga and the
East Indies.
"For these reasons every tea
spoonful of fat salvaged by the
housewife will fill a genuine var
need-and will still be paid for at
the rate of 4 cents a pound and two
red points,"
In the past II months home
makers collected and turned in $780,
100000 pounds of cooking fats to
their butchers, Allan said.
From the butchers, the salvage
goes into a general pool of inedible
tallow and grease, of which one
fourth is used in the manufacture
of lubricants, fatty acids, and for
other industrial purposes. The bal
.nce becomes soap, including the
important non-cleansing soaps, and
the by-product g~lycerine used in
of industrial processes, ex-
and synthetic rubber.
1t is estimated that 500 million
of fat are wanted every
year in homes and eating places,
Allan said.

.0PA5uspension Order
Against Arlington
Markets Upheld

Judge Leslie r. Darr of Tennes-
see, who Is sitting as justice in
District Court, has denied an in
junction against the Office of Price
Administration which would have
prevented enforcement of an OPA
suspension order against the Coun-
try Gardens, Inc, Arlington, Va.
The OPA order is to prevent the
firms stores from dealing in meats
butter and canned fish for a period
OF IS days because some of its clerks
allegedly failed to take in a suffi-
cient number Of coupons in making
meat sales. The OPA withheld en-
forcement of the order, pending a
court decision. A formal court or
der In the case is yet to be signed
In upholding the right of the OPA
to enforce the suspension, Justice
Darr, in memorandum opinion
pointed out that the Second War
Powers Act. which specifically in
vested the President with power to
punish violators. also provided for
the delegation of these powers by
the Chief Executive to administra-
tive agencies such as the OPA.
1t is obvious, he said, that the
purpose Of rationing is to provide a
means OF equal division of scarce
commodities so that hardships Incl
dent to the war will fall equally on
all concerned.
Judge Darr also held that the con-
tentions OF the firm that the notice
for the hearing before the hearing
commissioner was not sufficient and
that there was no substantial evi-
dence upon which to base the sus-
pension order are without merit"
