A congressional committee has heard testimony that illegal deal ings in meat (illegal because of price regulations, civilian quotas and fake grading) have become nearly as widespread as the sale of bootleg liquor in prohibition days. There have been prosecutions for illicit trading in tires, gaso line, coffee and sugar . . . But nothing to compare with the scope of the meatleg trade. OPA now has nearly 1500 investi gators working full time running down meat violations. Production of tires, gasoline, coffee and sugar is relatively easy to check, OPA men say, but meat ... Meat on the hoof can be butch ered on the sly . . . under a tree, in a barn or garage . . . trucked away at night . . . and turn up in butcher shop, private home, hotel or restaurant. It hasn't been government- inspected or graded . . . and how can the housewife be ' sure it somebody says it's higher grade and therefore costs more? Demand for meat is strong, and the supply is short (about half is going to the armed forces and lend-lease) . . . Those are the basic elements for a black mar ket, all hands agree. While OPA says it's trying to crack down all along the line, at least part of Washington of ficialdom apparently looks upon rationing and public opinion as the best hopes for stamping out meatlegging. When rationing starts a month hence, each person will have his stated ration. This will put the matter squarely up to the in dividual: You stay within your ration or you deal with a meat legger. There the factor of patriotism and concern for the food of fighting men will pre sent a clear issue, some officials tell you, at the same time that ration coupons will give investi gators something to work on in checking up on dealers.

There is talk of freezing prices on live animals. Packers com plain that they've squeezed be tween ceiling prices on meat pro ducts and the uncontrolled prices of livestock on the hoof. But if these prices were frozen, con gressmen ask, what's to prevent the livestock raiser from selling to a black market operator for more money, so long as there's. a black market?
