Dear AB: 1
You’ve presented a poser ih that
letter. Your question shows that
you are indeed a deep one.. From
it I can readily tell that you con
stantly probe for the inner and
important reasons of things. It
would be insulting of me ;to be
flippant in my treatment of that
sterling question.
Also, from your style | can
glean that you are abrupt and
to the point. I shan’t ihince
words with you. I’ll give ;it to
you straight from the shoulder.

M ii bin the state «f Texas alone-
the supply of Turkeys will drop
shjort of last year’s production by
lOi per cent. The situation is so
, barf* that Walter Cardwell, man-
! ager of the Luling Foundation
for Agricultural Research, glum-
! ly declares, “Over half of thdse
persons expecting a turkey (or
Thanksgiving dinner will be dps-
i appointed.”
I i . I . ■ :
Cardwell, speaking at a meeting
|)f tuikey industry research work
ers in Dallas, piaid, “There are
inore orders for turkeys now' than
Car possibly be filled.”
, ’’his scarcity won't be limited to
Texas, though, far the sgd news is
predicted' for tHe whole nation.
Such a plight is Hound to call ujpon
i-he utmost in Yankee ingenuity
for a solution. Americans, essen
tia ly a conventional race, will' not
just stand by and see such a Icng-
jctqnding tradition as turkey di n_
jiet-s for Thanksgiving and Chiist-
biits shattered just because a [few
exiperts are pessimistic.
: A few resourceful husbands will
quite possibly , bprrow from t leir
Pilgrim : predecessors, grab the
family blunderbipss or a suitable
equivalent, and sally forth to draw
aination peri ids. During (he summer The Bat

Other less ambitious famtilyimen
may simply try to bribe the local
meat merchant with a new;Cadil
lac or some other such petty offer
ing. They will probably reap either
a discourteous “no” or a slightly-
used soup bone for .their efforts.
Many mournful Milquetoast may
merely munch meatballs rather
than gb to the tj-oublc of rtjetoijider-
ing from market to markqti striv
ing to maintain the .trakjiticinal
menu. i
Still others will grab thofr fam
ily and pay-eheck and head for the
nearest restaurant only to find an
awfully blue bluc-platc special sans
turkey. The restaurant dealers, too
will be affected by the decrease in
gobblers.
The year 1948 holds proiiiise, in
deed, of bding definitely direary as
far as holiday meals are concerned.
What with ' current pricey and
shortages the familiar scene of
the family head hungrily carving
a tantilizing turkey may hi) chang
ed to that of a haplesps husband
asking for a key with* WiKidh to
