Livestock feeders urge Council to consider facts
The National Livestock Feeders Association writes to Cost of Living Council Director Donald Rumsfeld urging restraint on red meat price controls. NLFA argues prices fluctuate and any action would unfairly harm farmers, noting meat prices lag 20 years behind costs which rose 50 percent. The letter cites Secretary Butz and recent CPI figures to argue against price lowering actions.
