this paper reveals that about six
out of every ten housewives have,
without fanfare, simply stopped
buying meat and butter.
It is entirely possible that meat
and dairy products will return to
something like normal within the
next two weeks. In the meantime
Mrs. Consumer isn't giving the big
profit boys too much Of break. She
is not taking chances on letting her
self get accustomed to the particular
form of highway robbery involved
in the present inflated situation.
I personally have felt that the
cattle raisers of the country have
taken frightful beating under
OPA, due to the unfortunate tend
ency of that agency to fix ceilings
from the top down, instead of from
the bottom up. However, a little
reasonable adjustment could have
remedied that situation long since
and there's little excuse now for
going haywire at the expense of
those people whose incomes remain
as fixed as they ever were.
The report issued by the White
House yesterday. describes an in
crease OF an actual 35 per cent in
the cost of living since we parted
thanks to pressure groups and an
inept Congress-with OPA. That's
about enough to make anyones
hair stand on end, especially since
the sharpest rise is in foodStuffs.
Of course turning out meals for a
family, sans butter and meat, does
present its problems, but they are
far from insurmountable. At our
house the major complaint is COM
ing from two growing boys who
miss meat sadly and vocally I'm
sorry about it because l think they're
entitled to it, but a few vegetarian,
chicken (also outrageously over
priced) and fish weeks won't throw
them into beri-beri-and they may
eventually have definite reason to
be grateful that their home helped
hold the line against the biggest
squeeze play yet.
According to the morning paper,
today (Tuesday) is the day that the
Congress will put the OPA back into
action-what's left of it, that is.
There's still going to be lot of line

Soldier, Soldier, Home from the
