Governor Urges Liberalization of Pork Rationing
Governor Bourke B. Hickenlooper urged liberalization of pork rationing to move surplus pork from storage and free packers to process more beef. He argued heavy hogs over 300 pounds should be sustained, pork rationing reduced, and a larger five point allowance would not suffice to ease storage and price penalties. He stated the meat supply for armed forces and shipping is adequate, yet storage restrictions cause piling.
