Cheese production lifted for five weeks amid wartime shortages
A temporary relaxation on most cheese production restrictions except cheddar, pot and cottage cheese was announced to run a little over five weeks. The move, timed with peak milk output, allows Swiss, limburger and other varieties to be produced and stored. May factory output rose 4 percent with total production up 7 percent year over year, while civilian supplies remained tight. Dairy leader Owen M Richards urged shifting emphasis from distribution to production, noting a wartime policy parallel. Wisconsin accounted for 46 percent of cheddar in 1944, dipping 4 percent from 1943, as Minnesota Missouri Illinois and the Far Northwest showed gains.
