chants association, slid many retail
ers in that area were sending meat
back to wholesalers because consum-!
ers lacked enough red ration points'
to buy it.
The two government agencies is-,
sued a joint statement denying what
they described as “rumors” of dis-^
agreement between them on the lift
ing of ration controls.
“The department and OPA are in!
agreement that meat ratitoning I
should be ended as soon as supplies
are sufficiently adequate and distri
bution is sufficiently equitable to
permit such action.” said J. B. Hut
son. acting secretary of agriculture. |
“However, they are also in agree
ment that the present supply situ-j
aiion does not now make possible
predictions of the time at which meat
rationing can be ended."
Earlier in the day a rationing of
ficial had stated that meat might be
knocked from the ration list “if sup
plies look good by the end of the
month," but said that a final decis
ion remained to be made by the two
agencies.
