! Plenty Far AU-Dtrl Overbuy
The food bins are full. There
is no reason to stock up, and
, every reason not to. The way
to create shortages is to buy
more than you need.
The Agriculture Department
made these facts clear in its
July 23 report, “The National
Pood Situation."
“Supplies of food available....
in the U. S. are expected to con
tinue at about the same high
level as in the past two years,"
it. said. "Even if the Korean
situation results m some increase
in military procurement of food
in coming months, supplies avail
able for civilians would not be
noticeably affected.”
"Production of food this year,"
the report continues, “is expected
to total about the same as in
IMS), 38 per cent more than the
1935-39 average and 20 per cent
above 1041."
However the survey shows food
I consumed this year is expected
to average only It per cent high
er than the 1935-30 average and
a little above 1941, the record
year before World War II.
It also shows that “in the
next five months prices are not
likely to go more than three or
four per cent above the July
level . . . The current food sup
ply situation is again such that
speculative buying and price in
creases are not warranted.
“On the basis of present in
dications of food supplies and
consumer demand, retail fool
prices in 1950 are expected to
average about tha aan— as last
year.’’
Agriculture secretary Charles
Brannan told the House Agricul
ture Committee July 24 his de
partment is worried not about pos
sible shortages but about what
to do with the tremendous food
surpluses bulging Government
warehouses.
“We have adequate supplies,”
Brannan declared, “and there is
no need for the hording or for
the rise in prices.”

WORRY MARTIN?
Rep. Thomas E. Martin (R.,
Ohio) in a speech before the
House recently said, in effect*
that the corporation's pants
pockets had not been inflated
enough. He didn’t like the pro
! posal to increase corporation
i taxes He blasted at the Fair
| Deal. * ' **
Tired of his harangue, Rep.
Boyd Tackett (D., Ark.) re
marked:
“The gentleman has expressed
considerable concern about the
, possibility of inflation. I wonder
if j the gentleman is concerned
over the fact that cOrfl was
worth $1.45 a bushel!”
worth 1$2 cents a bushel in 1932
and now is worth $1.45 a bushel!"
