Chicago. Nov. 49, - Advices from
Washington today carry important
news to hog producers. 1t now be-
comes known that at a recent meeting
the agricultural advisory committee of
the food administration deemed 1t ad-
visable to stabilize hog prices for De-
cember on a basis equal to the Novem-
Der level The decision was made last
week in Washington.
Following the meeting F. s. Snyder.
first assistant to Food Administrator
Hoover wired the Chicago packers
asking them to continue their co opera
ton and requesting them to hold a
meeting to discuss the December hog
prices. They went into session last
week and again Tuesday OF this week
and agreed to sustain a minimum aver
age of $3.50 for December. They
wired Mr.. Snyder of their agreement
md he issued statement that the
daily average minimum Of $3.50 for
November would be in effect for the
month of December. The $3.50 price
for absolute minimum on all except
throw outs also holds good.
Price Better man Expected.
Setting of the daily average minimum
for December at $3.50 should instill
confidence in the hog raisers in every
section of the country, as without Il
doubt they expected a lower price to
be fixed. Only the food administration
realizes how serious the food situation
is in Europe and undoubtedly this had
a great deal to do with establishing n
price so high for December even tho
a liberal number of hogs are on the
farms.
In some sections farmers were load
ing out their hogs for market in larger
volume than usual in fear Of a depres
sion in the market, but the present
action of the food administration should
dispel any prospects Of Improbable
prices.
Packers Increase Killing Capacity.
Packers have had a hard time buying
hogs at the agreed prices recently be-
cause of the liberal receipts and short
age of government inspectors. Not so
long ago. for example Armour e. Co.
could only slaughter 5000 hogs day.
but on the recommendation OF the
United States Sterilization and price
control committee the bureau OF animal
industry was ordered to furnish more
inspectors. so that now the concern
can kill 5000 daily. There have been
corresponding increases elsewhere with
an added number of inspectors.
While the December prices will be
received by the country with some sur
prise, those in close touch with for
eign food needs took the action as
matter of fact
