Increased Meat Sales
Laid 10 Seasonal Rise
BY the Associated Press

Americans are eating more meat
now than they were two months ago
when the Government called on
them to eat less by observing meat
less Tuesday.
This does not necessarily mean,
however, that the meatless day
campaign is failing to achieve its
principal objective-a reduction IN
the feeding of grain to livestock so
that more cereals might be made
available for shipment abroad.
This is the season of the year
when livestock marketing normally
increases and when meat produc-
ton goes up. 1t also is the season
when appetites for meat tend to
grow sharper because of colder
weather.
Meat production by Federally in
spected slaughterers was running
less than 300000,000 pounds a week
when the meatless Tuesday cam
paign was started. Now it is aver
aging more than 400,0O0,000 pounds
and probably will go higher before
the month is out.
The bulk of this increase is mov-
ing directly into consumption. AS
is the case normally, some of the
seasonal increase is going into cold
storage for sale later when supplies
will be down.

Polarization Debated
ToEnd Head|iqhtG|are

Polarization is the answer to driv-
ling at night against binding auto
lights, the Highway Research Board
was told by two speakers at its 9th
annual meeting here today. A third
speaker, a representative of the Au-
tomobile Manufacturers Associa-
ton, declared the suggestion pre-
sents too many problems to be put
into effect at present.
Approximately 700 representatives
from SO member organizations had
registered for the four-day session
which began yesterday at the Ma
tional Academy of Sciences Build
ing, Twenty-hrst street and Consti-
tuition avenue NV.
DR.. Edwin H. Land, president of
the Polaroid Corp. Cambridge
Mass, said polarized windshield
visors and headlights would elimi-
nate the dangerous headlight glare.
He urged members of the Research
Board to support moves for installa-
ton of polarized headlight equip
ment on new automobiles.
V. j. Roper, General Electric Co.
engineer, supported DR.. Lands plea
and suggested compulsory State leg
islation as the means for efecting
it's use.
j. H. Hunt of the Automobile
Manufacturers Association agreed
that use of polarization by all cars
would greatly reduce glare hazards,
but pointed out that installation on
present cars would cost $50 to $50
In addition he questioned the safety
in meetings between cars with the
new headlight system and the old
lighting system during what he said
would be long transition period.
