American Fighting Men to Have Turkey On Holidays American fighting men all over the world are going to have turkeyâ€"for Year‘s day. ‘They may be a long way from home but Uncle Sam is deterâ€" mined to make certain that every fighting man asea or on shoreâ€"if the vanguard of the march on Berlinâ€"or Tokioâ€", or sailing the seven seas, will have a taite of home on the days he has been accustomed to celebrate in the states." The War Food administration toâ€" day called upon the American turkey industry to provide approximately 10 million pounds of turkey meat in August and September for shipment o American armed forces overseas. The turkey will . supply . the main course of Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year‘s day dinners on every battlefront where soldiers, sailors, marines, coast guardsmen and airâ€" men are fighting.

GRADUATES FROM HOSPITAL SCHOOL Based on the present outlook, all requirements for turkeys for the American armed forces, including the cmergency request for overseas birds, can be met by considerably less than 10 per cent of the total production anticiâ€" pated. Present prospects for all poultry indicate a per capita supply of about 33 pounds for civilians in 1943 against 26 pounds in 1942. In spite of weather and feed condiâ€" tions, supplies in prospect for 1943 are expeeted to top about 34 million birds. While this production would Fall short of the number needed to reach the 1943 goal of 560,000,000 pounds of .turkey meat, it would exâ€" ceed 1942 production by nearly 2,500,â€" 000 birds.
