Canned vegetables returned to the

‘Toughest Problem’ Explaining the action, Bowles

that: “The actions are necessary be-

butter and commercially canned fruits and vegetables are at the lowest point since the war began and meat supplies are declining. . . . “When Americans understand the facts back of today's agtion—that prospective supplies are smaller and that it will help each one to get his fair share—I am sure they will welcome the action.”

‘No Alternative’

Bowles said there was “no alternative” except to cancel unspent stamps, but “we all recognize that most people who have old unused stamps simply didn't need the food at the time the stamps were intended for use.” He added that encugh stamps will be..made good in 1945 to assure each consumer his fair share. Still valid are blue stamps X5 through Z5 and A2 and B2 and red stamps Q5 through S5. Blue stamps C2 through G2 and five red stamps, T5 through X5, become®valid Jan. 1. * The five red stamps, each worth 10 points, will give consumers 20 more meat points during January

months, but. Bowles said the OPA had hoped to make it six red stamps.

Reduce Vegetable Points

This was decided against, however, because of smaller supplies generally, and because lard, shortening, codking and salad oils, some veal, lamb and pork are still point-free. Bowles pointed out that while five canned vegetables were added to the ration list, point values en most canned fruits, tomato catsup and chili sauce were reduced so that consumers will be able to get the same amount of processed foods. He also said that a new sugar stamp will become valid Feb. 1, and will be good for five pounds, but that it will be for a three-month allotment instead of two and a half months.

Destroy Old Stamps The QPA chief advised consumers to destroy” all old canceled stamps at oncé, and warned that grocers will not be permitted to accept them. ) He indicated that the program had been under. consideration for some time by stating that it was advanced by 24 hours “to protect existing supplies on store shelves” when unofficial reports were circulated about proposed restrictions. One such report which came from the American food institute in its “Washington food report,” said that lard probably would be added to the list but butter wotld not be changed. Another report said said the regulation would become eflective next Sunday and that retail sales would be frozen until that time
