Califor nia cattlemen have had the under standable worry that lower beef supplies and higher prices might attract more imports. They have. Beef carcass imports for the first part of 1058 were more than were imported in all of 1957. At the same time, a plan to import live cattle from New Zealand to California to take ad vantage of good beef prices is radually materializing. Rumors of the impending impor tation of live cattle have circulat ed for months.- Imperial Valley cattle king James Dclfino and Sa linas cattleman Art Shannon were said to be nlannine the imports The U.S. Department ot Agri culture even issued the necessary Range Grass Tour Made permits for two shipments, one to arrive at the l'ort 01 MocKion ana Ihe other to arrive in San Diego. But the New Zealand government efused to okay the shipments ana the permits expired without being used. Sources close to the industry now iay that the New Zealand govern. ment has issued export permits for two live beef shipments .total ing around 3.000 head. At the same time. Dr. C. L. Gupding of the U.S. Department of Agriculture says he has issuea a new import permit and plans to recommend approval of a second one for which lie has received an application. Both of the permits call for the arrival of the ship ments within three weeks after mid-July. Meanwhile, Shannon has de clared himself out of the deal. Ha told United Press International I hat he had talked to New Zea land about beef imports . . . but he has given up the idea because rates and import duties are too high.
