Rationing Coming Back;

WASHINGTON.—It is now
clear that War Food Administration was
responsible for
the un-rationing of meats and
canned goods, but it is clear
also that OPA was sold a bill
of goods which it should have
rejected, the consumer division of the UAW-CIO reports.

A separate motion considered
