NO LET UP SEEN IN FOOD PINCH

Increase in Supplies Is Unlikely Next Winter.

WASHINGTON, July 9 (U., P).— American housewives can expect shortages in such important food categories as meat, sugar, fats and olls to be with them at least until dpring of next year, a survey of gavernment food agencies indicated today. Prospects are that meat supplies for this fall and winter will be no better than last year. While there will be an increase in beef marketings, that will be offset by a fur-! ther cut in the pork supply. Officials believe there will be no real improvenient until late next spring when both beef and pork are expected. to be more plentiful. Butter production is lagging béhind 1944 and non-civilian demands have been greater. The 40 per cent cutbatk in military purchases to be ‘effective next month, however, will- relieve the situation somewhat. The expected spring increase in pork is also expected to ease the fats and oil supply.

Hinges on Crops

Domestic stores of sugar are crit- | ically low at present, The picture | may improve next year if shipments from the Philippines are resumed. | The public will get-a good guide| to 1945 food production tomorrow when the department of agriculture | issues its July crop report with the | season's first official forecast on all major crops.
