Nixon Admin Imposes Cap on U S Cattle Hide Exports
The Nixon administration announced a midnight cap on export shipments of U S cattle hides at last year's 16 million level. Export tickets will be issued to producers based on their share of total production, keeping any higher foreign prices benefits with U S producers and consumers. Officials said this may lower future shoe and meat prices but did not guarantee immediate relief. Shoes have risen about 1 percent since January with a projected 3 to 10 percent rise without the limit.
