Heavy Shipment 0f Cattle Aggravates Animal Fat Shortage

OTTAWA, Dec. 1—~(CP)—Short- age of animal fats in Canada is be- ing aggravated by the heavy ship- ment of Canadian cattle into the United States market, the Govern- ment's latest statistical review notes. '

To offset the shortage. a govern- ment spokesman discloses, Canada has been forced to ask the United States for an allocation of inedible taliow and grease and soybean oil.

The request so far has been met with an allocation of 8,800,000 pounds of taliow and grease to be used in the manufacture of soap, which the pokesman said, "will make Canadian soap manufacturers very happy.”

No word has as yet been receiv- ed as to what allocatio Canada will receive of soybean o l.

The allocations will mean that Canada will find some of the Am- erican dollars received for cattle exports going back to the U. S. to pay for the cattle lay-products.

Altogether Canada exported in September $15,000,000 worth of cattle and another $7,500,000 worth of fresh beef and veal to the U. S. The statistical review says the heavy export of beef cattle to the U. S. II continuing.

The result will be, lays the re- view, that Canadian beef-eaters may find a reduction especially of the best grades of beef. Added to that will be n continued high price of beef products.

More Livestock Crowns For Canada

CHICAGO, Dec. 1—(CP)—Ceneda set out today to add more crowns

to the livestock championship al- ready garnered in the 49th inter- national livestock show here.

A snow-white Canadian lamb—a breeding Southdown ——owned by Don Head Farms of Richmond Hill, Ont., yesterday outclassed 14 other Canadian and American entries in the yearling ewes entries to win the title of tha pionship ewe of the show.

In other livestock crowns award- ed, the grand champion steer title went to a sleek, Black Angus from the fertile breeding country of Iowa in the heart of the corn belt. "Old Gold", LZOO-pound animal entered by C. E. Yader and Sons of Muscantlne, Iowa, was placed ahead of more than 400 compet- tors.

A Chester White, sleek and pink- sklnned, was chosen grand cham- pion barrow. The BOO-pound ani- mal, a previous winner in the heavyweight barrow class. was shown lay Tip Top Farms of Flore, Ind. Donald Brown, 28, a co-owner of Tip Top Farms, showed the eni- mai named Tip Top Farm's 48 Model.

In other sheep divisions Cana- dians placed well.

Don Head Farms besides winning the championship ewe showed fifth and sixth place animals.

In the Southdown class D. E. McEwen of London, Ont., was awarded a reserve championship for a ram he exhibited. He also placed first in two-year-oid rams while Don Head Farms were awarded second and‘thlrd place in the class which brought only three entries.

King intervenes To Preserve 0ld London Statue

LONDON, Dec. 1-—-(CP)—Inter- vention by the King has saved one of London's best-known statues— the historic red lion that stands atop an old brewery on the south side of the Thames, opposite Char- ing Cross.

For nearly 150 years the lion has been a landmark. During the war many Londoners came to re- gard it almost as a mascot as it stood defiantly through every blitz.

Now the brewery is to be torn down. Its site will be included in gardens which the London County Council plans to develop in that area.

Fate of the stone lion wae un- certain. However, the King's re- quest that it be saved won in- stant approval from the L.C.L.

Council Surprised-

His Majesty surprised the coun- cll by his knowledge of the brew- cry’: decorations by inquiring at the same time about a second lion which he thought stood over an en- trance. Sure enough, it was there.

The rooftop lion, which was set up in 1799, is to be prcseved in the new L.C.C. garden. The second lion, which is on a smaller scale, probably will be given to students of King's College, who said they would like it as a mascot.

No one seems to know what hap- pened to a third lion which dis- appeared one night during the war. There were no bombs that night. and if students carted it off, they have remained unusually quiet about the prank.

Venerable Monument-

London's most venerable monu- ment is Cleopatra's needle, a gran- ite obelisk originally erected in Egypt in 2'1 B. C. It was brought to London by sea 70 years ago.

Now it stands on the Victoria Embankment, across the river from the red lion. Those who admire its antiquity grumble that it's the most-ignored relic in London.

Certainly it isn't spectacular. However, Londoners may pay more attention to it next summer, after it's had its first scrubbing since being raised beside the muddy Thames.
