VITAMINA | SHORTAGE REPORTED WASHINGTON, April 11.—Gov-| crnment scientists have reported the| |nation faces a serious shortage of Vitamin A, with the catch of soup-| ‘fln sharks whose livers are the main source of the vitamin dwind- ling rapidly. The Fish and Wildlife Service said the present indications are; that the consumption of Vitamin A| is exceeding production, and Vita-| min A stocks held by producers| and pharmaceutical houses totaled about 51 trillion units on February 29 as compared with 88 trillion 12| months before. The Service said that the soup- fin shark fishermen, most of whom; operate out of Seattle, produced far less in December, January and Feb- ruary than in the same months a year earlier. In February they landed only 83,000 pounds of shark livers in Seattle compared with 280,000 pounds in 1943. The Fish and Wildlife Service recalled that two years ago it warned coast fishermen that inten- sified exploitation of the soupfin shark would probably result in early depletion. | 'MORE AMERICANS ARE LANDED ANZIO BEACHHEAD, CLAIM LONDON, April 11.—The German controlled Vichy Radio in a broad- cast today said American reinforce- ments have been landed for the Fifth Army at the Anzio beachhead below Rome.
