Civilians May Face
Further Cut in Food
|WFA Spokesman Says
Ry the Associated Press.

Ry the Associated Press.
A War Food Administration
spokesman told Senate investi-
gators today that minimum
lease lend and relief food needs
cannot be met without further
reduction in civilian consump-
ton.
1t. Col. r. W. Olmstead, chair
man of WAS Food ALLEGATION Com
mittee, said that whether such re-
duction in the United States and
Canada is feasible lis largely a mat
ter of whether adequate controls
could be devised and enforced that
would achieve sufficient equitable
distribution of the reduced supply"
Col. Olmstead presented to the
Senate Agriculture Committee a
broad summary Of the Allied food
situation in which he said that dis
crepancies between supplies and re-
quirements are becoming greater"
Serious shortages" he said, ARE
rapidly developing for meats, fats
and oils, dairy products, dry eggs,
sugar and rice.
Reason Is Simple.
THE basic reason for the in
creasing shortages in prospect for
1945 may be stated very simply
Supplies are down and requirements
are up"
In order to meet the 1e45 situa-
ton as far as possible, Col. Olmstead
said, stocks of scarce commodities
in both the United States and the
British Empire will be reduced to
the working minimum
A House group. meanwhile. mapped

an inquiry into reported New York
City and Boston black markets.
Chairman Anderson said the COM
mittee expects to be in Boston April
% and in New York April 24-25. 1t
will be in Chicago April 1917 and in
Cleveland April 18.
Charges have come from various
sources" Mr. Anderson told news
papermen late yesterday, that 90
per cent of the meat handled in
New York and Boston is in the
black market. That's pretty severe
indictment of American business. II
is an astonishing charge.
I'm inclined to believe it's an ex-
aggeration. but we're going to see
what there is to it.
In Chicago, Mr.. Anderson said, a

given of fleet damage, if any.
Japans Domei news agency
claimed, meanwhile, that 146 Ameri-
can ships had been sunk or dam
aged by air and surface units so
far" in the Okinawa campaign.
The broadcast, totally without
confirmation, claimed these included
5 battleships. aircraft carriers, 10
warships of unspecified category, IL
battleships or cruisers, 18 cruisers
and 27 destroyers. aside from a long
list of assorted landing vessels.
There was no confirmation to a

phasis in Cleveland on consumer

Prior to the trip. the committee
expects to confer with Fred M. Vim

ceed James F. Byrnes as war mobil-
ization director. 1t also will study
the Army's meat requirements.
Mr.. Anderson said the group
might make trip to Minneapolis to
look into the butter situation.
Meanwhile, cattle and beef in

of beef be increased to encourage

Yanks Able 10 Handle
Anything on 0kinawa,
Navy Spokesman Says
By WILLIAM J. WHEATLEY.

There are enough forces now
on Okinawa to handle any Situa-
ton, but the Japs are expected
to offer stiff resistance as Amer
ican forces move quickly south
ward from their landing beaches
a naval spokesman said today.
The resistance is expected to de-
velop in the defense of the biggest
airfield at Naha, the largest city
on the island Naval officials still
believe there is going to be pretty
tough fighting later on, and they
are still amazed at the small num-
Der of casualties reported. No actual
figures on casualties have been
annQlnced.
Tons and tons of supplies are
being landed without opposition and
under excellent weather conditions
There is no swell where the ships
are unloading, and several days OF
good weather are expected to facili-
tate the unloading operations.
Can Cut OFF FOrmosa.
The confinement of most of the
japanese forces into the southern
third of the island will make it
easier to dispose of them than
would have been possible had they
gone to the mountainous area In
the north, the spokesman pointed
out. Although there are three times
as many troops on this island as
there were on Two Jima, Okinawa
is not as well defended.
When it is possible to establish a
fleet base in Nakagusuka Bay, from
which United States submarines can
operate, the American forces will be
able to cut Formosas S contact with
the home islands, the spokesman
said.
The japanese have a number of
airfields within easy bombing dis
tance CT Okinawa, and naval officials
are unable to understand why the
Japs have not attacked both the
landing forces and the fleet stand
ing by The spokesman said there
is a strong probability that our
carrier and land-based air strikes
have upset Jap plans to such an
extent that they have been unable
to attack. In the meantime, when
the strips already taken on Oki-
nawa are in full operation, it will
be possible to keep Jap planes
pinned down,on the other islands.
The Japs have an airfield on
Miyako Reto. l55 miles from Naha !;
one on Ishigaki Jima, 220 miles
from Naha; another on Kago Shima,
800 miles away, and another on
Amami o Shima.
American forces still are keeping
a close check on the Japanese feet.
The naval spokesman said the
enemy still has enough surface
vessels to form a task force that
could become dangerous to Amer
lean operations within the very
shadow of their homeland. 1t would
be possible for the present remnants
of the Jap fleet to come out in bad
weather and make damaging hit
and-run attack The enemy has a
distinct advantage from the weather
standpoint because of its weather
reporting stations.

Mississippi Rises
To Flood Stage as
Tributaries Overflow
By tie Associated Press.

BY tie Associated Press.
NEW ORLEANS, April 3.-Army
Engineers plugged gaps in the Mis-
sissippis last line of flood defense
today as tributary streams topped
all-time crest records.
The big stream itself was at food
stage or above from Iowa to the
Gulf of Mexico-a 1854 mile course
Engineers were prepared to op-
crate the hitherto unused 100-mile
Morganza floodway to divert 640,-
600 cubic feet of water a second
from the lower river into the Gulf
Worst Since 1927.
More than 100000 cubic feet OF
water a second already is being di-
verted around New Orleans via the
Bonnet Carer spillway which has
a total capacity of 250,000 second
feet.
Dewitt Pyburn, State director of
public works, predicted the flood
would be the worst since 1927.
New backlogs of flood water were
reported building up on streams
feeding the Mississippi from Ar
kansas, Texas, Missouri. Louisiana,
Mississippi and Tennessee.
At Shreveport, La, the Red River
fed by heavy rains in three States,
was rising 2 feet a day.
1t. Col r. w. Sauer, Vicksburg
district engineer, said levees on
both banks were in danger of being
topped from Fulton to the Arkan-
sas-Louisiana line.
Record Crest Predicted.
About 300 families from the
northern part of Warren County,
Miss, at the junction of the Yazoo
and Mississip ppi Rivers, were being
evacuated.
An all-time record crest of "A TO
As feet on the red at Alexandria, in
Central Louisiana, was predicted for
April 13 to Is, and the Mississippi
is expected to go 10 feet above flood
stage at Baton Rouge on April 1S
and l9.
Army engineers at Memphis said
levees along the lower White River
in Arkansas had become saturated
by recent heavy rains and might not
be able to hold.
The flood threat increased on the

back, Beason, Ill, grabbed us an

target about 10 am, just as the
fight began to get rough.
Marines Ask for Support.
Co-Pilot Ensign John @. Schell,
jr., Asheville, N. c., gave me head
phones and we heard the marines
calling for fire support from the
feet. Bursts of orange flames
sprang from the muzzles of the bat
tleships, and cruisers, big guns and
huge columns of smoke and fire
rose skyward from the island Sec
onds later.
1t was systematic murder and de-
struction. Suribachi's crater steamed
from successive hits along its ridges
overlooking the beach. I could see
many formidable pillboxes along the
beaches as well as q few rusty ship
hulls, already put out Of action.
None of our surface forces had
been disturbed by enemy counter
action by midafternoon, although
the water literally was alive with
Yanks either going ashore or carry
ing supplies to the beach.
The invasion armada had spread
out for scores of miles around the
island. There was no mistaking the
fact that the Americans arrived
to stay on Tokyo's doorstep, but the
fight looked like it would require a
week or more before the finish, and
as ii an awful lot of blood would
be spilled before it was over.
