It happened behind closed doors, but a lot of housewi7es would have relished being present when Cong. Clinton Anderson's special food committee quizzed an array of Washington bigwigs. A lot of star witnesses were present, but the army, represented by Maj. Gen. Carl Hardigg of the quartermaster corps, chiefly took it on the chin. War Food Chief Marvin Jones started the ball rolling when he produced figures showing that last year, when meat was plentiful, the army gummed up the works by failing to take anywhere near the quantity allocated to it. In the fourth quarter of 1944. the army had asked for one and a quarter billion pounds of meat. Actually, the army took half a billion pounds less. That, according to the closed-doo- r testimony, was the chief reason why ration points on meat were dropped last year and the housewives got a windfall. The public then got back to the habit of eating meat. But today, with meat far less plentiful, the army has ordered even more than allocated to it last i t 4-- pa s mnthnr.

Treasury Department OPA board, chairman Ed Deakin of the local war price and ration- ing board announced this week. Commercial and retail slaughterers must register between April 30 and May 14. Farm slaughterers must register and obtain a permit from their local board by July 1. However, a farm slaughterer may not sell or transfer meat after May 14 unless he has registered and received a permit. The new regulation, according to the chairman, is part of the plan recently announced by William H. Davis, economic stabilization director, to channel more meat into FARM SLAUGHTERERS areas.

General Hardigg was unable to satisfy the congressmen as to why the army failed to take up its meat last year, or at least failed to put it in cold storage for later use. Had this been done, army demands would now be much smaller. General Hardigg also was asked to report back to congress on meat consumption per soldier in the British army, also in the Russian army. Congressmen also asked Hardigg to report on how much meat States. RELAXED MEAT INSPECTION One proposal to ease the meat shortage is to abolish federal inspection in small local slaughter houses. These slaughterers have to pass state inspection anyway, and most of them are thoroughly reputable. But to sell inter-stat- e they must pass federal inspection, so many now sell only within state limits. This Is one reason why cattle-raisin- g states are experiencing no meat shortage today. General Hardigg, however, sat on the idea of relaxing federal inspection. lie argued that federal inspection must continue. War Food Chief Jones and War Mobilizer Vinson were not impressed with Hardigg's argument. "I never tasted federally inspected meat until I was in my Jones. 20s," scoffed Texas-bre"Out in Kentucky we did all right without federally inspected meat," Vinson agreed. "I never had it until I was out of my teens." Representative Anderson of Albuquerque, N. M.t chairman of the committee, then took General Hardigg to task for the army's system of poultry buying. "Out my way, where we've got plenty of meat," Anderson said, "the army isn't interested In buying poultry. Here in the East, where meat is scarce, you're taking all the poultry. Why not spread your poultry buying so that in areas where the public has a hard time getting meat it can at least get a little poultry." He pointed out that the army is taking 100 per cent of the poultry in the Delmarva area Delaware, Maryland and Virginia. Vinson supported Anderson, telling Hardigg: "Try to work that out with the war food administration. Gend eral." j j Si U. .... f: -- ' s y 5 -- . y- ,.,. f.Z t 1 -- i V J uxi - :J .
