Cents-Per Pound
Revision of Meat
Prices Told by OPA
WASHINGTON, May 12 (VP) New cents-Der-Dound retail
ceiling prices for specific cuts and grades of beef, veal, lamb and
mutton revised downward to comply with the president's "hold
we line order were announced today by the office of price
administration.
' Effective Monday, OPA said the ceiling generally represents
a reduction of 1 to 3 cents a pound from retail ceilings originally
scheduled to go into effect April 15 but withdrawn in the fac6
of the "hold the line" edict. -
In a companion order, also ef
fective Monday, OPA likewise
revised downward retail price
ceilings for all parts of pro
cessed .hams (bone end) and
processed picnic hams. These
reductions also amount to 1 to
3 cents a pound for specific cuts,
but retailers still will receive
substantially the same profit on
a ham. This will be brought
about by a provision permitting
the sale of one-third of a bam.
instead of one-fifth, as center
slices, which bring a higher
price.
Ten Per Cent Cut
The new beef, veal, lamb and
mutton ceilings will be reduced
further by about .10 per cent
roa June 1 under a recently
announced plan for- the pay
ment of government subsidies
to processors.
OPA estimated that the prices
which become effective Monday
will represent a slight reduction
in the retail - prices of meats
shown in the February cost-of-living
index, with more substan
tial reductions from March and
April index prices.
Brown disclosed that an or
der, now is in preparation to es
tablish special classifications for
large-volume handlers of meat.
In the meantime, he said, large-
volume handlers should main
tain' prices 10 per cent under
the' ceilings established by to
day's regulation.
Retailers Divided '
The present order divides re
tailers into two classes inde
pendent stores with less than
$250,000 annual volume and all
other retailers. The dividing
line for the new classification
has not yet been decided upon,
OPA said.
Prices of all beef steaks and
roasts and several types of beef
stew meat were reduced from
those established in the April
15 regulation, while Iamb and
mutton prices were reduced in
some instances. Prices of veal
cuts and of beef hamburger,
were unchanged.
Additional cuts of beef, veal,
lamb and mutton were - given
specific ceiling prices for the
first time.
Price ceilings are on a zone
basis, each zone covering a sub
stantial area, generally includ
ing - several important cities.
Prices vary somewhat from zone
to zone, but the difference gen
erally is small.'
The order requires retailers
to separate the different grades
of meat they display to help
customers keep check on price
ceilings.
OPA said the priccs-by-grades
would provide a deterrent to
hidden price increases, equalize
competitive markets and aid
substantially in enforcement of
the regulation.
