The increase has been in the cheaper
cuts of meat The consumption of the
more expensive cuts and the high-gradc

ably, he explained The result has been
a gradual increase in the price of rough
cattle and decrease in the market
value of the best grades. The Govern
ment Is now working out plans to re-
lieve this situation and to protect the

one Of the factors operating to COM

The Government is also compiling cold
