REINDEER MEAT ON
TRUMAN’S TABLE VIA
PAN AMERICAN
WASHINGTON, Sept. 16,—To
morrow when meatless Tuesday
rolls around at the White House,
President Truman will not have
to worry about facing a vegetable
dinner. He will be dining on
reindeer steaks from Alaska.
The reindeer meat, 200 pounds
of it, was consigned to the Presi
dent and other of the nation’s
executives, from Nunivak Island,
near Bethel, Alaska, and sent by
PAA Clipper to Seattle, Washing
ton, where it was divided with
portions going to President Tru
man and Secretary of Agriculture
Quentin Anderson, UNRRA Head
Fiorella LaGuardia and former
President Herbert Hoover. Each
wifi try the reindeer meat as a
possibility for a future source
of meat supply for UNRRA ship
ments to needy countries.
The meat was obtained by the
Fish and Wildlife Service at Nuni
vak from domesticated reindeer
herds placed on the island by the
; Bureau of Indian Affair*.
Nunivak Island first gained
! fame in 1936 when a herd of the
I almost extinct musk ox were ship
ed there from Greenland to be
' raised until numbers had suffi
ciently increased to repopulate
Alaska with them and to provide
the Eskimos with a ready source
of meat.
