Beef prices to climb as cattle supply tightens
U.S. beef prices, down for five months, are expected to rise this winter due to reduced cattle supply, though Agriculture Department experts foresee no sharp increases before next spring and avoid predicting exact future retail levels. President Ford will keep FBI Director Kelley and Joint Chiefs Chair Brown after controversial remarks, saying Kelley’s planned speech would not reflect his views and Brown’s interview remarks were ill advised. Commerce Secretary Richardson reiterated opposition to the Arab boycott of Israel and urged American firms not to participate, reaffirming U.S. policy.
