WHAT CAUSED FOOD SHORTAGEI
Herbert timer. U. 8 Food Admin-
inirtltor'.’ says there have been two
prinit-ipnl reasons to nccount for the
wet-cot toot] shortage." First, the ”un-
klndnens or nature." including the late
spring. droughts, hurricanes. poor con-
ditions of rainfall, unexpected {route
and periods at Intense heat in mtlom
throughout the world.
Second» he sires "reduced produo

tion has been hemmht about by hurl

he explained by the withdrawal of men
irom form and held to army and too-
