Grocery Bill Exceeds One Billion For War Purchases
Government military shopping for food clothing and medical supplies is set to reach 1.8 billion dollars for the 1966 fiscal year ended June 30, Defense Supply Agency officials said. Expenditures for medicines and hospital supplies total about 150 million, with clothing and textiles around 500 million and food costs about 1.75 million for beef. The agency ships to depot stocks, making exact consumer totals hard to track, while contracts in the first half of fiscal 1966 reach 2.6 billion, an 800 million rise from 1965.
