Drastic steps to prevent grain hoarding and to provide more feed for cattle will be taken by the Dee pertinent of Agriculture within the next day or two.
 This Government crack-dcwn will probably take two forms:
 (i) Big grain dealers who have been hoarding feed grains, chiefly corn will be required to reduce the amount of grain on hand. The Government will probably inspect their inventory and set Q limit on the amount of inventory each grain dealer can hold.
 (2) Preference certificates" for grain shipments may be issued. Tn other words, the Department of Agriculture would require grain to be shipped to certain areas where the present feed shortage is most acute.
 At present, New England, the eastern United States and the West Coast are suffering most from the feed shortage. Dairy and poultry farmers are especially hard up for feed. Therefore, the Department of Agriculture would issue certificates permitting grain to have preference if shipped to these needy areas.

 There are two sets of regulations, one for males, and one for women and minors, but their provisions are almost identical.
 The mercantile trade,> for the pur. poses of the order, is defined as "the trade of wholesale or retail selling of commodities and any operation or service incidental thereto, (such as, but not limited to, buying, deliv- cry, maintenance, repair, office, stock and clerical work) but does not include (a) the business of a gasoline filling station or Cb) the selling of food or drink for con- sumption on the premises whether or not the establishment is devoted exclusively to that purpose.
