Increase in I Canned Fruit And Juices Predicted in OPA Report.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 12 (U. P). ~The agriculture department notifled foreign food claimants today that after Sept. 30 they will be strictly on their own as. far as meat procurement in this country is concerned. At the same time, it told housewives they could expect substantial increases in supplies of canned fruits and juices but that dried fruits would be scarcer than last year while frozen fruit supplies remain about the same. Officials said foreign nations wishing to buy meat in the United States will be granted export licenses for a specified poundage but that it will be up to them to drive their own bargains with American packers. Other Buying Halted In addition to meat, the government has discontinued buying flour nd wheat products, oats, . grain orghums, cotton, tobacco, fruits and vegetables and several special commodities for export. The only foods it now will buy for export will be dairy products, dried and- frozen eggs, animal fats, including lard, vegetable oils, wheat, corn, beans, rice, canned fish and agricultural seeds. The only countries exempted from the new order are those under) UNRRA’s wing. UNRRA has beén scheduled to get 595 million of the 1,615,000,000 pounds of meat earmarked for export during the year ending in January.

JINNAH AND WAVELL ~ MAY RENEW TALKS

By PHILLIPS TALBOT Times Foreign Correspondent NEW DELHI, India, Sept. 12.— | _Viceroy Lord Wavell has invited President Mohammed Ali Jinnah to New Delhi for talks which will mark a new effort to bring the] Moslem league into the interim | government and prospective constituent assembly. This move presumably had the prior agreement of Jawaharlal Nehru's Congress party cabinet. It reflects Lord Wavell’s concern over rising Hindu-Moslem tension which has caused bloodshed in New Delhi and Bombay since the Calcutta holocaust last month. Mr. Jinnah's recent interviews, arning of trouble ahead if no agreement is reached, is interpreted fn New Delhi as suggesting his willingness to reconsider the Moslem league's stand now that the interim government is actually functioning without league participation.
