If prices are exhorbitant, it is because the retailer is doing some private profiteering. Just issued is a guide for Western buyers which gives max imum prices for various pork cuts, The prices vary in different states, hut here are the absolute top prices for the West: Pork chops, 49c; sliced bacon, 46c; sliced ham, 73c; salt pork, 30c; whole ham, 40c. If prices are higher than this, protest first to your butcher, then, if essary, to the Office of Price ministration.
