You May Be Able To Throw Ration Books Away In 1946
Secretary of Agriculture Clinton P. Anderson said civilians may discard ration books next spring after 1 6 million tons of Japanese stored sugar were found in liberated Java ports. The American share could reach 700 000 tons, enough to end sugar rationing months early, possibly when the Cuban sugar crop is harvested. Rationing of sugar and meats may end by spring, with shoes becoming ration free within weeks.

Byrnes Disappointed Over Results Of London Meeting
U S Secretary James F Byrnes and Soviet Foreign Commissar Vyacheslav Molotov clashed over whether a big three understanding exists for blanket participation by five powers in European peace settlements. Byrnes expressed disappointment at Potsdam outcomes while noting continued work by deputies on issues including Austria, Nazi loot, and the Ruhr and Rhineland. Molotov admitted disputes but expressed hope for future cooperation as the council pursues matters beyond Europe’s peace treaties. The exchange underscored unresolved tensions among wartime allies ahead of formal settlements.
