SALISBURY, Md, Feb. 25-The
broiler industry on the Delmarva
Peninsula is losing from 100000 to
S400 900 week and losses probably
will mount to the s2,000,000 mark as
a result of the biggest glut of chick
ems this important poultry -produc-
ing area has seen in years.
These estimates were advanced by
professors, producers and hatchery
operators who geenrally agree the
break in the market resulted from
over-optimism by producers in plan
ming for the new year. and with
drawal of Army buying late last
year
With broiler production up around
100000 week, they now are SELL
ing from II to 10 cents a pound on
the farm despite an OPA ceiling of
293 cents pound. This is the low
est price for broilers on this market
in four years.
No Spoilage or Dumping.
To date there has been no spoil
age or dumping, and experts see
little likelihood of this.
What hurts. however, Is the loss
of revenue in the face of mounting
production costs, including feed
prices and labor costs.
Losses probably will continue
until April, at which time broiler
production will drop off to about
100000 a week in line with re-
duced hatchings late in December
1t takes about Is weeks from time
Of Matching to killing.
Meantime, however, some opera
tors are losing and a few are plan
ming to close down permanently.
Consumers Benefit.
For Washington consumers, the
crowded market is a boon as poul-
try sells anywhere from 10 to 25
per cent below retail ceilings. How
ever, everything points to an event.
ual shortage of freshly killed poul-
try, probably in early summer, and
return to higher prices.
Nowhere does the old rule about
feast following famine better apply
than in the poultry industry.

V.P.L. Reorganization
Asked Of Assembly
BY the Associoted Press

BRISTOL, Va, Feb. 25.-W. G.
Buchanan, prominent farmer and
leader in Virginia's agricultural or
ganization activities, said yesterday
that the demand throughout Vir-
ginia among farmers for reorgani-
cation of the College of Agriculture
V. P. ~ and related agencies at
Blacksburg is so insistent and the
need so urgent that suitable action
at this session of the General As
sembly is important"
New blood is needed at Blacks
burg" Mr.. Buchanan said, CON
sisting of the ablest scientific brains
available. The recent so-called re-
organization was merely reshuf-
fling of former members of the
staff. 1t is wholly insufficient to
meet the needs of agriculture in
Virginia at this time.
Failure of the General Assem-
bly, to act at this session would mean
that financial provision would be
delayed for another two years. The
farmers are unwilling to tolerate
such delay. Their problems are too
pressing.
Il have written Gov Tuck. urging
conditional appropriation to meet
the urgent needs of the situation. :"

Farm Bloc Supports
Bigger Lunch Fund
BY the Assoeioted Press

The Senate farm bloc lined up
today behind $115,000, ,000-a year
Federal school lunch program, more
than double the amount voted by
the House last week.
Senators Ellender, Democrat. OF
Louisiana and Russell, Democrat, OF
Georgia said they will seek action
tomorrow on measure already ap-
proved by the Senate Agriculture
Committee.
They and Senators Bankhead
Democrat, of Alabama; Aiken, Re-
publican, of Vermont, and Thomas
Democrat, of Oklahoma, told news
men there is no doubt about Senate
approval, although there may be
some opposition from economy ad-
vocates.
Senator Taft, Republican, of Ohio
told a reporter he may oppose the
school lunch authorization "be-
cause I'm against it in principle
1t Is a program to provide lunches
for every one, rich or poor, whether
needed or not"
But Senator Aiken said in an in.
terview:
"A lot of Senators regarded the
Federal school lunch program az
Communistic when it first started
in 1885. It's proved such a success
that it's not even pink now"
The Senate measure would au-
thorize $100,00000O annually fol
food buying. OF this the Secretary
of Agriculture could use some
$25 100000 to buy surplus foods; the
balance would be matched by States
on a dollar for dollar basis for the
first five years.

Board Cites Drunk
Case Increase, Doubts
Effect Of Jail Terms
BY the Associated Press

RICHMOND, Va, Feb. 25-Ap-
proximately one-half of the persons
committed to jails in Virginia dur
ing the first six months of the pres
ent fiscal year were jailed for
crimes involving drunkenness, it
was revealed in the semiannual
report of the. State Board of Cor
rections.
OF total of 40,618 persons placed
in Jail, 1900 or 46.06 per cent, were
for drunkenness or for being drunk
and disorderly. Including those
committed for charges of operating
motor vehicles while under the in
huence of intoxicants and for other
charges involving drunkenness, the
percentage rises still higher.
The Board of Corrections points
out that many of the same indi-
viduals are placed in Jail quite
frequently on charges involving
drunkenness" Sometimes, it states,
the same individuals may be COM
mitted to Jail as often as once
week over considerable period of
time"
1T would SEEM" the report con-
tinues, that this is a problem that
Should be given serious considera-
ton by the General Assembly, the
courts, and law enforcement agen-
cies. 1t appears to be an irrefu-
table fact that being committed to
jail Is not a cure or even a remedy
for these unfortunates.
The total of commitments on
the charge Of drunkenness and be-
ing drunk and disorderly for De-
cember, 1914. amounted to 2,448 or
493 less than the commitments for
December, 1945, which we're 2.94l.
This increase of 2014 per cent in
dicates an urgent need for consid-
GRAFTON and correction of a condi-
tion which should not remain un-
bridled."

ketlng cooperative here, reports
that his processing plant is turn
ing away offers Of thousands of
chickens every day. "We just can't
handle them" he said.
Dilemma Described.
Mr.. Rieck, who also is big pro-
ducer of broilers, describes the
growers dilemma this way:
When producer takes a loss,
it's on heavy production basis,
and when he goes into a profit
market again, he is operating on a
small production basis. It's damned
If you do and damned If you don't"
He said there are far too many
marginal" producers of chickens
men who lack proper financing
and know how and generally are
inefficient operators. Many of these
producers moved into the industry
during the war as word spread of
the good profits to be made from
poultry.
Residents Start Production.
1t is estimated that broiler pro-
duction on the peninsula increased
500 per cent between 1899 and 1945.
Strangely enough, there was little
or no influx of poultry raisers from
other areas. Attorneys, doctors,
lumbermen, garage operators, all
residents of the peninsula decided
to take fling at raising broilers.
Old hands at producing chickens
frankly admit that the present ex-
perience may weed out a number
of these marginal producers and
return the industry to the pro
fessionals."
The future still is not very clear
however. The experts are concerned
over excessive cold storage holdings
of poultry, estimated nationally al
1854, ,009, 900 pounds-an all-time high
In this connection, professors have
an additional problem Of finding
available space for storing chicken.
even on short-term basis.
There also is the threat of ar
oversupply Of red meats, which may
result if and when livestock opera
tors are forced to liquidate stocks
for lack of feed. Unfortunately for
the poultry industry, housewives fire.
quently will buy red meat, when
there is plentiful supply, in prefer
ence to chicken.
