Price Of Meat Is
 Lowest Since 1924
Wholesale Prices of Beef Pork and Lamb Are Down
 With Declines Reflected in Retail Prices

Chicago, I'll, March 6.-Meat prices at the present time are lower than they have been since 1924, it was pointed out to-day by Charles D. Carey, prominent livestock man of Cheyenne, Wyo, in a statement to the National Live Stock and Meat Board, of which he is chairman. '
 There has been very noticeable decline in meat prices all along the line during recent months, MT Carey stated. Wholesale prices of beef, pork and lamb are down and these declines have been reflected in the retail market. The consumer can now satisfy his wants in the way of meat at prices lower than they have been in seven years, ac- cording to the board chairman.
 Take beef, for example. Annual average prices for all slaughter cat tie declined from $10.58 per 100 pounds in 1929 to $8.55 in 1880, a drop of over Pc pound or 19 per cent. The downward trend of slaugh- ter cattle has been accompanied by similar trends and greater declines in wholesale beef prices. These de- clines also have been evidenced in the retail prices and to bear out this fact MT Carey quoted figuhres com piled by the bureau of labor statis- tics which showed that retail beef prices for the country as whole have declined cents per pound or IA per cent from December 1929 to December 1890. He pointed out further that special survey by the U. g. department of agriculture cov- ering about 1000 retail shops in New York city showed that the

average composite price of all re- tail cuts of good grade steer beef had dropped 1-3 cents a pound, or 20 per cent from the first six weeks in 1929 to the same period this year.
 In order to show exactly what these prices mean to the cattleman and to the housewife in actual dol lars and cents, MT Carey took as an example a 1,000-pound good grade live steer. The steer is sold for $30 Jess during the first six weeks of this year than it did during the same period in 1929. he said. The carcass of this steer, which would weigh 5S0 pounds, brought $30.74 less than two years ago. The trimmed sale- able retail cuts totalling only 464 pounds were bought by the consum- amount of meat of the same quality would have cost during the period in question in 1929.
 When it is considered that a larger part of the family budget goes for meat than for any other one food, the present trends in prices are o fgreat importance to the house. wife who purchases the family sup plies. said MT Carey. Not only are cattle prices down to the low est levels since 1924 but the beef supply is ample to meet all of the consumers requirements.
 In speaking of the other meats MT Carey quoted figures showing the decline in wholesale prices of pork and lamb cuts in Chicago by con trasting the prices prevailing during the last week in January 1880 and

The difference between common place meal and an excellent meal often depends on the first course. the hors-d-oeuvres. When dinner starts with an attractive, hunger-whetting appetizer, the stage is set for thor ough enjoyment of every course.
 There is nothing difficult about preparing hors-d 'oeuvres. Just ordi- nary condiments and pickles are needed in order to add the smart, zestful touches that make these dainty appetizers.
 For the simple dinner, hors-d 'oeu- vres of two or more kinds may be attractviely arranged on salad plate and placed on the table. 1

RAIL RATES BOOST
. OPPOSITION IS SEEN
Brookhart Believes Move
Would Prove Costly to
Roads Just Now.

The proposed increase Of railroad
rates. which was discussed at recent
meeting of executives of the roads in
Chicago, aroused comment in congress
sional circles here yesterday. Accord
ing to press reports, the roads have
decided to seek 10 per cent increase
in rates.
While it is apparent that the ques-
ton of increasing rates will ultimately
be decided by the Interstate Commerce
Commission, there were signs yesterday
that strong opposition to increases
would be manifest from some elements
in Congress, especially from agricultural
factions.
Will Engage Congress.
With these and such subjects as
railroad consolidation and control Of
motor buses at the front, it Is realized
here that interstate commerce prob
lens are likely to occupy large share
of the attention Of the next Congress.
Senator James Couzens, chairman OF
the Interstate Commerce Committee OF
the Senate, plans to give close study to
this increase. Until he has. done 80, he
does not want to give his views. Sen
ator CouzenS has heretofore indicated
he was opposed to reduction of wages
by the roads or by industry.
But in some quarters the view was
expressed that the railroads would lose
business by increasing rates under pres
ent conditions. This opinion was ex-
pressed by Senator Smith w. Brook
hart, Republican and 1nsurgent, from
Iowa, and also by Senator Duncan u
Fletcher, Democrat, Of Florida.
Advance Would Be Mistake.
Senator Henrik Shipstead. Farmer
Labor, of Minnesota, predicted the
roads would not benefit by higher rates
in the agricultural States. Senator
william E. Borah held an advance OF
rates now would be a mistake.
Reduction of rates, Senator Brook
hart held, would promote freer inter-
change of agricultural and other prod
ucts over wide areas and would tend to
restore prosperity, while increase OF
rates would cramp and restrict business
and agriculture.
