MOST CIVILIAN
FOODS PLENTIFUL

NEW YORK, July 81. -(P)- The
August civilian food outlook gen.
orally is favorable despite made
quate dairy supplies and signs of
an impending shortage in some
types of coffee, the Great Atlantic
and Pacific Tea Company, report
ed today.
Its monthly food survey based
on reports from more than 140 buy
ing offices listed as plentiful:
meats, particularly beef and poul-
try: some fish such as mackerel
and clans; cantaloupes and other
melons; western pears and apples,
and onions.
Besides butter and cheese. snap
beans, tomatoes, bacon, canned
meats, fancy grade fresh eggs and
some types of potatoes were list
ed on the short side.
The report said the drought in
the east and south had caused
serious damage to vegetables but
that increased paintings and more
favorable weather in other parts
of the country had made up much
of the loss.
Hot weather was reported to
have caused more than a seasonal
decline in egg production, bring
ing a shortage of fancy grade eggs
but it was held that this was part
ly offset by record holdings of stor
age eggs.
