Food prices rise as beef ceiling lifts and new rules take effect
Shoppers faced possible price increases as the beef price ceiling ended and new regulations on other foods began. Experts blamed consumer buying patterns for determining prices, with Armour and Co. noting that higher prices depend on household demand. The North California meat trade, chilled by the freeze, began reopening, but shortages persisted and layoffs occurred as about 1,000 butchers were out of work. Stores in South County anticipated price hikes of around 10 percent with fresh shipments expected today and tomorrow.
