The committee feels that \any
concerted action by merchants FOR
the purpose of protesting or max
ing demands will serve only to
cause resentment. and that such
action would be sure 10 bring un-
favorable criticism against the com
munity as a whole on the grounds
that its business people are only
selfishly interested in continuing
the prosperity which was created
out of the war boom situation.
The committee asked all bust
ness people in Ypsilanti to face the
problems Of reconversion realistic
ally, pointing out that such recon
version is inevitable and certainly
should have been anticipated.
The committee also expressed con
ffdence in the leadership of gov
eminent units already considering

Washington, May l0-AP-This
years pig crop may fall more
than 100000 short OF goals set
by the War Food Administration,
A recent Agricultural Adjust

production plans indicated a crop
OF about 90,000,000 head, compared
with a WA request for about g.
100000 head. The goal is $3.50 900
head greater than last years pro-
duction, but about zS,000,000 be-
low the record 1913 crop.
One OF thief actors contributing
to the current meat shortage was
