Grace live stock pool in its 11th year turned down all bids on its semimonthly hog shipment. Bids matched the old OPA ceiling of 4.75 while top hogs had fetched up to 23 per cwt earlier. Pool secretary Mrs. Clyde Renberg said bids dropped with the return of ceilings this weekend and protest will go to Earl France for possible federal action.
