Weekly Letter From District OPA Office A statement to correct the im pression that millions of pounds of meat are piled up in storage plants and withheld from civ I ilians was issued this week by M. E. Rawlings^ District OPA Director. The figure usually given was six hundred and fifty million pounds, and the public was given to unerstand that it represented a vast surplus piled up because people did not have the staement said, enough ration points to buy it, The facts, according to Raw ligs, are that about 380 million pounds—well over half—of the meat now in storage in this country is recently slaughtered pork. When the amounts being held for the government contract are deducted, that figure is en tirely normal for this time of year. The mount of beef now in storage is rather unusual, but the beef in storage today is largely there to take care of future needs of the military, the OPA staed. Total civilian meat supplies in 1944 have been estimated at | about 17 billion pounds. Th.> total meat storage holdings toda • are only a little more than hal a billion pounds, or he equivaler, of two week’s supply for civil ians. “When you consider tha meat holdings at this time of year are always higher, because c seasonal variations in slaughtei. and that this year much of th meat sored is held for govern ment contracts, you get an en tirely different! picture—and it isn’t one of excessive supply,,, Rawlings said. Meat rationing was started one year ago to assure all of us our equitable share. Today our sup plies are not enough to take care of uncontrolled demand, but with our present raion rate there will be about 132 pounds this year for each of us. That’s more than we had last year and no one really suffered in 1943, but as our fight ing strength increases, the armed forces will need more meat., Rawlins added. Expiration dates for food ra tioning stamps are out for the duration, according to an an nouncement by M. E. Rawlings, District OPA Director. That means that your red and blue stamps in Book IV will be good indefinitely. This does not apply to stamps which have already ex pired. There is no change in the val idity date, however. Three red stamps worth thirty points be come vaild every second Sunday, and five blue stamps worth fifty points become valid the first of every month. This change is in line with similar changes in other ration ing programs. The expiration date on shoe stamps was remove4 last September. Sugar stamp expiration dates were removed a few weeks ago. Ration tick ets are also good indefinitely. PRODUCE A recent national poll reported that the number of victory gar dens this year would total about 19,600,000, a drop of 400,000 from the numbed planted in 1943. Your government has set a goal for 1944 of 22 million gardens to obtain an estimated 10 million tons of garden vegetables for home consumption as fresh and canned vegetables, over and above the anticipated commer cial production. Increased requirements for processed fruits and vegetables for our armed forces and allies make it of vital importance that every American plant a victory garden if possible. Food is a decisive weapon in this war and an adequate supply for ourselves and our allies will brfing Victory sooner. Plant a Victory Garden in 1944. CONSERVE One of the best ways to con serve food is to untilize those foods which are relatively abund ant. Eggs are now in abundant supply. They are high in protein and other food values. The aver 1 age adult requires 500 grams of protein a week, according to the recommended dietary allowance determined by the National Re search Council. The weekly al i lowance of meat under the ra ■ tioning system is about 216 j pounds per person, which sup plies an estimated 200 grams of protein. One egg a day will add about 50 grams of protein each week to the average adult re quirements. By increasing the consmption of eggs, Americans can not only assure their own good health but assure a supply of eggs for next winter by enabling farmers to keep their laying flocks on the farm. SHARE All frozen fruits and vegetables amounting to about six per cent of all rationed processed foods, are now ration free. This bonus to the family larder was made by OPA at the request of the War Food Admnstraton to release cold storage space for meats, dairy and from 1944 production. Canned poultry products and other foods peas and fig plum, jams also were reduced to a zero value in the April ration list. Other than the above changes, housewives will find most point values for pro cessed foods unchanged. Canned fruits will continue at current levels and most canned vege tables will remain at bargain point values. BRIEFLY STATED A. L. Stearns returned home last Thursday from Midland, S. D., where he had been employed for the past year. Mrs. Laurence E. Tenborg spent Sunday in Emmet, visiting at the home of William R. Ten borg and family. Miss Carolyn Neiers left for Lake Andes, S.
