SHORTAGE SEEN| OPA Hopes . for rove . ment in Situation Within

Next 6 Weeks.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 27 (U, P.). —Office of price administration officials expressed hope today that the next six weeks would bring an improvement in the current sugar shortage plaguing the nation’s housewives. : The tight sugar situation was said to:be the result of overly generous rations to home canners and a serious manpower shortage in refineries. The officials said that OPA, on the basis of 1943 records, set a bigger allowance of 25 pounds of sugar per person this year for canning purposes, only fo see a four or five-fold increase in the number of people who eanned their own fruit.

Production Down

In ‘addition, beet sugar production has been down and consumers in the Midwest have had to be supplied from Gulf coast and eastern refineries which are now six to eight weeks behind on orders, Officials were fairly confident, that all factors would improve by the end of October. If not, they said, rations may have te be cut when the next sugar stamp becomes valid in mid-November. Civilian sugar consumption this

Progresses.

The condition of corn in Indiana was reported by the U. 8. weather bureau today to range from fair in the north part of the state to fair to good in the central and southern areas, : J The Weekly’ weather and crop bulletin said that pastures were in poor condition in the north and fair to good in the south portion but getting rather dry. Tomatoes stiil were being marketed and tobacco cutting made good progress, the report sald. Potatoes were mostly poor to fair, but good locally: in southern Indiana. Light frost occured. at several northern and central Indiana stations, the bulletin said, but damage was slight. Rainfall was light to moderate, with some areas having none, “Considerable plowing was done but the ground is again too hard in some districts,” the bulletin said. “Wheat sowing ranges from just begun to more than half finished. Qutting soybean hay continued, with the weather favorable for curing. Combining is in progress in several counties.”

Murray made his statements in WLB hearings on m of presenting the union's case before the “Little Steel” wage formula. A. F, of L. representatives gave - their arguments for wage raises yesterday and. industry presents on opposing case tomorrow. Murray's mention of possible war-end changes in the stabilization program was a reference to an assertion by WLB Chairman William H, Davis that the end of the war in Europe was “certain” to bring changes in the nation's wage policy. 8 “It would be outrageous for this board to suggest that the outcome of this case must be further delayed or the effective date of .the directive postponed pending fure = ther developments on the military front,” Murray said. "Both labor and industry are entitled to immemediate determination.”
