Anderson moves to lift meat supply by local plants
Secretary of Agriculture Anderson outlined a plan to boost slaughtering at clean, locally operated packinghouses and integrate their meat into the national supply. An agriculture department spokesman said the move aims to widen supply, improve distribution, and curb the black market, with effects expected in the fall as slaughter increases. The program stems from a Patman amendment to extend price controls and allows unlimited slaughter by non federally inspected plants certified for sanitation, making their meat eligible for interstate commerce and government purchase. Timing not announced, but work to begin soon.
