OPA Holds To New Prices Despite Delayed Date
The OPA maintains its plan to restore meat price ceilings on September 9 after a late delay that left live animals free of control for four extra days. The new ceilings will be about five and a half cents higher per pound for beef and two to three cents higher for pork than June 30, but still below current costs. Secretary Anderson used new powers to push higher ceilings for beef and pork to spur production, prompting CIO to call the move pro-firm profit bias. Ceilings apply to slaughterers and packers on September 5 10 wholesalers and September 9 for butcher shops.
