Roosevelt outlines hog and dairy price pegs plan
President Roosevelt described the agriculture department move to peg hog and dairy prices as a stabilization measure to spur production and enable food exports. He said hogs would be insured against low prices if farmers fatten with corn, aiming to boost fattening and corn use, with similar goals for butter and milk. Government buys may set peg levels around hogs 49 per 100 pounds butter at $1.00 per pound, eggs 22 cents a dozen, chickens 15 cents per pound, with minimal retail fluctuation expected.
