Acknowledging that a black mar-

riculture Secretary ,Claude Wickard,
of Washington said that "it can be-
come much more serious" and distrupt
the United States war food program.
Informed by Senator George Ai-

war food production of reports that
beef steak was selling as high as
$1.75 a pound •in a New York black
market Wielcard, said he preferred to
leave the problem to the office of

"If this goes on without check, it
is going to be very difficult to oper-
atethe war food program. The con-
dition is serious enough now and it
can be much more serious." •
Although General George C. Mar-
shall, the army's chief of staff; was
reported to have informed a group of
congressmen privatelyy a few days
