Calls On Farmers To Increase Their Pig Production
State representative Stanley Munro of the War Administration urges farmers to boost hog production to lift the nation’s meat supply. He cites the WFA raising hog price supports to 13 dollars per hundredweight through September 1946 and the OPA guaranteeing no cut in live hog ceilings through September 1, 1946. He warns price support holds only if packing plants can absorb the hogs.
