So far OPA hasn't stated what it

CAT-BEASTS SOUGHT
IN AUSTRALIAN WHDS

SYDNEY-(P)-A recent report
that a man had shot two unknown
puma-like animals" at Tugun, near
Maryborough, Queensland. has set
Australian biologists speculating
again about the possibility of the
existence of a giant Australian cat.
If one were proved to exist it
would be a discovery of first-class
scientific importance. Reports per-

with tiger stripes"
Australian biologists don't write
OFF the possibility of a large Aus
tralian marsupial (pOuched) cat
existing in some of the wilder and
little-tOuched corners of Australia
There's little doubt, for example,
that marsupial wolves exist in the
wilder and more remote areas of
northwestern Tasmania. The mar
Supial wolf once was all over the
mainland but has now become ex-
tinct there; a few specimens have
heen preserved. Its last stronghold
is Tasmania where it was fairly
frequent when the first white set =

TOTAL SUPPLIES OF MEAT
IMPORTANT CONSIDERATIONS
The poultry industry is witness
ing what happens from a compet
ititive standpoint when the price
lid is taken off red meat.
The current competitive situa-
ton illustrates the necessity for
poultry and egg producers to con-
slider the total supply of meat in
planning their programs, USDA
poultry authorities point out.
During the war and for much of
the postwar period TO date, poul-
try and eggs took the place of
scarce red meat, to a large extent,
as a source of protein in the diet.
With the expectations that there
will be a good supply of meat by
next fall, however, poultry far
mers ought to consider 1947 goals
seriously, these officials declare.
Availability of other food products
will have q direct bearing on the
volume of poultry and eggs con-
Sumed.
