U.S. Meat Shortage Fresh meat, hard -o get in war- time with rationing in effect, has virtually vanished from most of the United Tiates' peacetime dinner tables. Slaughtering operations of most of the big packing plants are at an historic low level. There is only a trickle of supplies turned out as pens remain empty. Many plants have closed. Butcli- cr shops in many cities remain closed two or three diiys a week. The scanty fresh meat supplies butchers can get are sold out in a hurry. Chester Bowles, Director of Economic Stabilization, said there would be an increase in meat for five or six months ;.fter July 1. He also predicted relief from the shortage of bread within thirty days and an ample supply of most foods, except sugar, for the rest of the year.
