Protests Mailed to Congressmen Over Meat Shortage

In Welsonville, Retail Merchants Association president Walter Wolf told business leaders that OPA rules have driven meat onto the black market, leaving 75 percent of small dealers affected and forces to protest to Congress. He noted 1944 slaughter status limits and that packers now lack meat, with only 400 pounds yearly per permit to dress. Meat is reachable at stock sales but cannot reach local shops, prompting mailed protests to Congressmen and Senators. An unrelated ad for Teol fungicide appears at the end.
