The AAA advisory board adopted
q resolution this week calling at

tended to change to unmarked

man last year, but the State expe-

Potato SHORTAGE
Causes Outlined
By Government
Smaller Paintings,
Weather and Price
Ceilings Are Blomed
WaSIllflgLOn, d. e.
SATURDAY, MARCH rs. 1852

The Agriculture Department to-
day reported what most District
housewives already knew: Supplies
Of potatoes are running short.
Smaller paintings. below-ayer-
age crops and price restrictions
can be blamed. Here's how:
l. Smaller plantings-American
growers reduced paintings this
year after the Government
stopped buying potatoes to sup
port prices.
2. Disappointing crops - poor
weather caused an unusually large
percentage Of the spuds to be sec
ond rate; Canada's crop also is
short.
3. Prices The Ofice of Price
6tabilization's ceiling prices are
well below what Canada-without
price restrictions will pay. So
considerable amounts Of potatoes
that ordinarily would be eaten in
the United States are going toI
Canada at fancy prices. Canada
IN recent years has shipped to the
United States, but now the direc-
tion Of traffic is reversed.
Storage Supply Sinks.
All Of this has helped cut
Americas supply Of merchantable
potatoes. The Agriculture Depart
ment said today that on March /,
there were 46.730, ,000 bushels Of
merchantable potatoes held in
areas where grown, This was only
. little more than half the 88,-
100000 bushels in storage year
ago.
Potato State Congressmen have
demanded and won some price
increases from OPS. Today ops
also announced special 'tdisas-
ter" allowance Of 20 cents per 1O0i
pounds for Utah potatoes. This
action was taken under q policy
Of letting farmers pick up extra
pay to Offset extraordinary costs
Of handling storm damaged crops.
Figures for Three States.
Only $4,000 bushels Of Utah
potatoes are in storage, compared
with 100000 a year ago. Maine
storage supplies are down to 1875
million from 27.260 900 a year ago.
1daho's growers Of elite potatoes
have only 6.5 million bushels on
hand. compared with 15.2 million
b year ago.
So II you have potatoes for din
ner tonight. the Agriculture De-
partment cautions: There aren't
many more where those came
from.
