    littlingi found a usage for this word in a script of the movie The Hamilton woman, circa 1943. The line went for the full watering and LITTLING of the English fleet. I assume that littling has some reference to supplies. I have searched the WEB and could find no definition of the word

    Littling is an obsolete verb form: little meant "to make small" or "diminish". In the context you cited, "littling" looks more like a misspelling of "vittling", i.e., "victualing" or "supplying".
