Black Market B««f Forecast Owyhee Cattlemen's Asso< Annual Summer Meeting In Silver City Silver City. Idaho - "Due to government Interference price ceilings and other res trictions, American consumers are facing "black market" beef for the first time since World War 11. It has recently come to our attention that some meat wholesalers are resorting to 'under-the-table' deals in beef purchasing. This has come about due to a tremendous beef shortage in the Northwest and throughout the nation,** so stated the Executive Vice- President of the Oregon Cattle men's Association, Donald Os- tensoe. He was speaking to Idaho business leaders and cattlemen at the annual summer meeting of the Owyhee Cattlemen's Association, Saturday noon. Sil ver City, Idaho (July 28. 1973). Oslense* continued, "Consu mers in the Northwest and throughout the nation should be planning on beefless meals in the immediate future, because in a week or ten days there will probably not be any beef at the retail markets. The only way this situation could pos sibly be helped is for 'he Cost of Living Council to remove price ceilings on beef imme diately, rather than to continue them until September 12, as previously announced. Beef is the only food commodity which the Administration andCLC has singled out for price ce'lmgs. This is a disgrace to cattle feeders and producers through out the nation. It Is quite ap parent that the beef industry has become the ‘whlppi'-g boy' of the administration ana the CLC.” "Last Thursday beef indus try leaders, representatives of major packing houses and retailers, met with the Cost of Living Council and represen tatives of the Nixon’s Adminis tration. They informed them of the dire consequences of beef shortages and black market manipulation if the price ceil ings on beef were not lifted im mediately. Their presented case was to no avail, as the request was denied.*’ Ostensoe further stated, "The cattle feeders and producers have been put in a financial and psychological straight-jacket and meat packers have their choice of closing their doors, buying on the black market or stay in business and continue to lose money. Here are some of the industry’s proUems-feed costs are more than double to day than they were a year ago; removal of DES (diethylsti- bestrol) has added 10^¡ to cattle production costs Presi dent Nixon has lifted all res trictions on imported foreign beef, increased costs for cattle to graze on public lands, in creased pressures from the en vironmental protection agen cies, plus a host of other res trictive regulations.'* by dale witt a ■ NEWELL HEIGHTS - Mr. and Mrs. Jim Thompson of La Grande visited in the Carl Lee Hill home Friday afternoon.
