Willis, president of the Grocery Manufacturers of America, incorporated, re ported today. The traditional baked ham dinner, including a five pound ham and 20 appropriate food items will cost the aver.ige homemaker $10.19. Five years ago she paid $11.74 and last year, $10.16, Mr. Willis said. A roast chicken dinner, with a five pound fowl, and the 20 food items will cost $9.48 this year. Last year it cost $9. SO and five years ago it was $11.16. Another Easter favorite, eg of lamb, will cost $10.81 for a five-pounder and the other 20 food items, compared with $12.22 in 1958 and $10.53 last year. The 20 food items which In clude vegetables, bread, dairy products, juices, beverages, relishes and dessert account for $7.03 of the dinner cost, compared to $7.05 last year and $8.31 five years ago. These comparative figures reflect the stability of food prices. In addition homemak crs are now spending only 19 cents of their after-tax dollar for foods, the smallest share of income spent in all history, In any nation of the world, Mr. Willis pointed out. Another plus which home makers will appreciate this Easter is the shorter time they will spend in preparing of the greater variety of tlme the holiday dinner because saving convenience foods which are available, he added.
