Over the nation the food situation looks this way: East In New York City, fruit and vegetable retail associations threatened a "holiday" in protest against alleged tie-in sales and overcharges by wholesalers. This would affect 3,000 shops. Meat and eggs continue scarce.

Mid-Continent Earl E. Mason, secretary of the Iowa-Nebraska Poultry and Egg Institute, said a black market in eggs had been added to the operations causing shortened food supplies in Iowa. In Cleveland, a spokesman for 14 packing houses which claim to supply some 800 local butcher shops said the concerns would remain closed all week. In Minneapolis potatoes were virtually unobtainable. I West More meat markets were closing temporarily in Seattle with lamb about the only variety available in quantity.

Fish was helping ease the beef-pork shortage. Some Montana markets were closing. Europe Allied food experts estimated northern Italy's rich wheat fields would yield 70 to 80 per cent of last year's bumper crop. This would leave only a slight surplus for distribution to the remainder of the country. Bern reported the Colorado potato beetle spreading in Alsace and northwestern Switzerland as a possible menace to one of Europe's main foods.

In Greece, no salt has been Issued for over six months and the black market price Is 70 times the prewar price. Salt now is sold for 400 drachmas or $1 a pound.
