Shipping Crisis Impends and Feed Prices Rise
Federal transportation experts warn of a looming shipping crisis in mid July as freight car construction slows despite rising wheat exports. The Office of Defense Transportation may lapse on June 30, with a push for the ICC to take over full loading orders if needed. May car output fell short, blamed on steel shortages and strikes, though officials argue the government mandated steel for the 10,000-a-month target. Agricultural outlook suggests feed prices rise into 1947 and 1948 amid strong foreign demand, with 1946 corn sales around 832 million bushels expected this season. Spruille Braden resigns as assistant secretary of state for Latin America. Norman Armour poised to replace him, signaling a potential shift toward appeasement in Latin American policy.
