Continued from Page 1
the past few weeks, it is possible
tha* vessels may be taken from Al
aska runs for transportation of
food and supplies across tlyj Atlan
tic. The railroads in the States
ar» already short of cars. All this
means th>e possibility of food sluort
ac-i and it is therefore advisable to
be prepared for any emergency by
producing foodstuffs at home."
Aside from selfish motives, Mr.
Hahn added that home production
'n Stag way and other Alaskan
towns would help the nation thru
decreasing demands hero for food
stuffs from the States..
