Meat Trade Demoralized By Wide Price Drops In Washington
The Washington meat trade is in demoralized condition as strikes keep packers idle and beef sells at historic lows. Poor to medium grade beef fetches 4 1 2 to 7 cents a pound while prime beef stands at 8 cents, with low demand and uncertain causes cited by butchers. Some blame newspaper agitation and consumer caution, others oversupply from independent packers. Pork and lamb decline is milder due to lamb scarcity and reduced hog slaughter. AFL President Samuel Gompers says negotiations with strikers and packers are ongoing and a conference could yield settlement, though individual job applications are not urged yet.
