FAMINE MAY GRIP EUROPE BY AUTUMN Kood Store* Reported Dwindling Am W«r Db* ruptN Agriculture Washington. I). C. — Contlnua Hon of war through the fall harvest season will bring Europe to the doorstep of famine. It was declared here by Mine Melva Bak kle. American Red Crows nutrition consultant. Mias Bakkie, who In eoopera Hon with the U. M Department of Agriculture la selecting foodstuffs for American Red Cross relief ship ments to the war sones, said malnutrition already Is beginning to Jeopardise the general health of Europe for years to come. "Host lilt lea not only have draa tbally reduced farm production and the output of European food Indus tries'* she said, "but haa so limited distribution channels that tbe rations of millions today are below sustenance standards.'* Members of the American Red Cross European delegation place | the number of refugees who have ; fled to southern France upward from (.noo.MIP. It was stressed that scores of provincial communities had trebled and quadrupled their population within the past month, i seriously tasing available food stores. Concentrated foodstuffs, tested by the Department of Agriculture, comprise the bulk of American Red Cross shipments Into the refugee areas. Mias Blake said. Rhe ei plained limited transport facilities had prompted the Bed Cross to ship foods containing the highest nutritive values as possible "American R>-d Crosa mercy cargoes’ en route or planned for European war relief, are being pur chased on a food value per pound basis.” Mias Bakkie stated "In- | eluded in the 14.000.00 U pound car i go scheduled to arrive at Bilbao. : Mpaiu are more than 1.500.000 pounds of dried fruits and thous ands of cases of dehydrated soups, powdered milk, molasses and dried vegetables." Vitamin C. found In fresh vege tables and fruits, rapidly Is becom ing the chokepotnt of European ntMrltkm. Mias Bakkie said. To meet Ibis shortage she said, the 'Department of Agriculture la In yestigating a new product -citrus juice concentrates— which may enable the Red Cross to stave off de flciency diseases among hundreds of thousands The Department of Agriculture haa reported to the Red Cross that large citrus surpluses are piling up In southern markets Passage of a bill to make available to the Red Cross Ibo.oou.ouo tn surplus farm neither do they wish to be destroyed by any group who might take advantage of their patriotic impulses In acting for the defense of the nation.’* Gov. Lswn C. Phillips of Oklahoma. chairman of the Interstate Oil Compact Commlsaion. recently assured President Roosevelt ready, willing, and able to supply that "the petroleum in-Justry Is his nation's need in time of emergency." The possibility that the Federal government might use the present international situation aa a reason for passing legislation putting the oil Industry under government control haa worried many observers and executives in the Industry. Federal control haa Iceen a bugaboo In the oil business for years—dating from the time when the industry admittedly was guilty of much waste In the production of oil and gas How To Bo Coy I WrJl J MI For picturg purposes Shu's cov, and for radio sha's capable.
