EXPLAINING MEAT RATIONING In 1948, the people of the United States will have to accommodate selves to the rationing of meat. Mean- while, they are.requested to substitute cheese, poultry, fish and beans for part of their meat requirement. It is well to understand the facts about the meat situation. Livestock production | is the greatest in history. Packers are! handling more meat than ever before. For this year, the meat output of the nation wi! be cver 24,000,000,000 pounds. Along with record. production, how- ever, there is a record demand. Our fight- ing forces require large quantities of meat. Our allies also need large supplies. gether, six million pounds of meat are re- quired and, if ships become available, the demand will be increased. The civilian population, with improyed gingomes and working harder than, ever,|; wants,, more | It is estimated that | they would ¢ofisume 21 Billie pounds “of | meat than ever before. meat if the supply wag ‘uyilimited? A As Secretary of Agricilture’ Wickard points out, the total demand adds up to more than the total supply. The demand is 27 billion pounds and the supply 24 billion pounds. The nation must choose between rationing meat for civilian consumption or taking meat away from our fighting men and our fighting allies. Faced with this problem, there is only one answer. The Department of Agriculture. points out that late in 1940, foreseeing increased demands for meat in the future, it urged farmers to increase production of:pork. In the Spring of 1941 price supports were an- nounced for pork to assure adequate pro- duction. Farmers responded~ and °* in- creased production is now showing, up on the markets, youd 9g The rationing of meat: will:inot; werk}: hardships upon the American) constimensi Die to increased supply, there will be left for civilians about the same amount of meat that they have consumed, on the average, during the ten years from 1931 to 1940. The rationing program is designed io give Cac), | ae | person a fair share. of the meat available for. civilian consumption.
