Meat supplies rise in 1954 and meat consumption falls
A 1954 meat supply increase is linked to a slight drop in per capita meat consumption from about 151 to 154 pounds. The American Meat Institute notes total production near 246 million pounds, with Osaka reports of a radioactive fish scare tied to Bikini Atoll tests affecting markets. Charles W. Bressler Pettis, Lions ambassador for International, dies at 65 after an accident at a construction site in Kissimmee Florida.
