BY PETER Cans, Soup, Sweat and Tears Herald-Journ- EDS0.V ru Iff Uavhintu Fork Correspondent jHich.1 By PETER F.DSON Herald Journal Mash. Correspondent THE STORY of how the rationing of canned goods came to be necesUnited sary in these States makes an interesting bit of background, now that his rationing is about to be put into effect. The first move in this direction was taken as long ago as February. 1942, when a temporary ceiling, order was slapped on wholesale prices of canned f fruits and vegetables. This order went into effect March 1, 1942. There was some hoarding of canned goods going on even then, and there was some need for alocation. The Army and Navy were asking that large supplies of canned goods be set aside for them, and the war production areas with their big new populations were upsetting all the normal demands and chanels of distribution. At inat time, no one had any accurate idea of what the canned goods situation of the country really was, and the curbstone opinion of most people in the food industry was that little or nothing could be done about allocating output. n That created one of those government needs for statistics, and as a result there was compounded one of those now famous government questionnaires. It was tough. It was everything any business had ever heard or seen in the line of a government questionnaire, and more. It went out to the 23o0 food canners and processors and the 7290 wholesalers. THE RETURNS CAME FIRST RETURNS came in May and by May 31 the division of supply and requirements in the Office of Price Administration had an idea of where the inventories of canned goods were at the beginning and end of the month, how much goods had been canned during the month and at what rate they were disappearing. These reports have been made out monthly since that time by 90 to 97 per cent of the 9500 iirms. By summer need for rationing really began to be felt, so in August the War Production Board slapped down its conservation order restricting tanners to the delivery of not more than 35 per cent of the civilian allotment of 1942 canned goods to retailers by Dec. 1, 1942. and not more than 70 per cent by April 1. 1943. This was applying rationing at the top. In September the order was amended and rationing was applied to the wholesalers by restricting purchases to 70 per cent of the fruits and 80 per cent of the egetables they had sold to retailers during the first eight months of the year, January through August. This was an effort to control wholesalers' stocks and to limit their purchases in acerdanee with wartime rationing in metropolitan areas there will undoubtedly be a good bit of confusion and considerable tellj'acting.
