CAROLINA SOLONS TO
BE HOME FOR EASTER

Washington - Most of the
members of the North Carolina
congressional delegation plan to
spend Palm Sunday in their home
churches in the State, as an East
er recess of nearly three weeks
commencing next Saturday seems
increasingly certain.
Only routine bills are expected
to come up on the House floor
next week, and it is expected that
this branch of the 1awmaking
body will close up and 60 home
regardless of the program in the
Senate.
Representative Carl T. Durham
of the House Military Affairs
Committee sees only one slim
possibility which may keep the
House in session, that would be
the introduction of the report OF
the Senate House Conference
Committee on compulsory labor
legislation.

Government Announces BIG
Cut In Civilian Meat Supply

Washington-The Government
this week told a public already
hungry for beef and pork that it
would have to get along with IL
per cent less meat in the next
three months.
Reasons: The worst meat famine
since the drought-and-dust storm
blight of 10 years ago; a four per
cent increase in. army and navy
requirements; a six per cent drop
in the U. S. meat supply from the
first quarter of the year.
Six Government agencies are
rushing along as rapidly as posi-
BILE emergency measures to i'm
prove the supply and assure equit-
able distribution. But, the War
Food Administration said bluntly,
there is no reason to believe the
civilian supply picture will be any
better in the third quarter than it
will be in the April-May-June
period.
Not until the Fall livestock mar
keting season, the VIA said, will
there be any substantial improve
ment in the picture, if then.
! Nor will the end of the war ir
Europe materially affect the gen
eral meat situation in this coun-
try, the Government said.
Meanwhile, the shortage is sc
serious that there will be Sub.
stantial" reduction in lend-lease
shipments of meat as we'll as ir
supplies for U. S. civilians. Only
Russia and the United Kingdom
will receive any lend-lease meat
in the next three months.
A United Press survey last week
disclosed that meat supplies ir
stores already were at their Lowest
level since the start of the war.

Surplus
Continued From First Page J

the Marine Base at Quantico, Va,
and the A. P. Hill Military Reserva-
ton near Bowling Green, Va, is
expected to remain in Government
hands, he said.
To date, about 215.000 acres have
been declared surplus by owning
agencies. Much of the land ac-
quired for war purposes already
was in the public domain, and a
considerable portion of the re-
mainder was leased from private
owners, the surplus agency pointed
out.
One hundred and twenty-seven
acres of land in the vicinity OF
Hyattsville, purchased for the Ma
tional Housing Agency, already has
been declared surplus and offered
for sale. The land, owned orig
inally by the Sisters of Providence
of st. Marys of the Woods, was
intended for war housing but never
was used.
SPA pointed out that in the dis.
posal of real estate, veterans will
be given No. 2 preference in the
sales of single detached homes, with
the present occupant of dwelling
having first call. MIA estimates
that about $4,000 demountable
homes may eventually be declared
surplus and that the same proceed
ure in disposal also would be fol-
lowed.
The following agencies will serve
