D. T.. Meat SHORTAGE
Termed Limited by
Dealers
But General Situation
Is Serious, Counsel
For Packers Warns

Washington wholesale meat deal
ers reported continued limited short
ages of beef and pork products to-
day, but said that new supplies
though somewhat curtailed, are
still coming in regularly.
Persons studying the meat sit
uation, reported acute In some areas
in the East. said Washington pur-
chasers may have to visit several
shops to get the particular choice
cuts they desire, but that there is
no danger Of meat famine.
Wilbur LaRoe, jr., general counsel
for the Emergency Conference OF
Packers, warned yesterday that "the
meat shortage is more serious than
people realize"
1t is due. he said, mainly to an
unfair Government policy which
fixes prices on meat products and
then lets the prices of animals rise
without limit until the profit Of
meat packers are converted into
huge losses"
Calls Shortage Limited"
Mr.. LaRoe said, however, that
supplies are coming in all the time"
and that proper description of the
situation here would be q limited
shortage in which the people will
have some difficulty as to choice
cuts"
Mr.. LaRoe's criticism OF Govern
ment ceilings on the processed cuts
of beef and pork conceded with
other demands for maximum prices
on cattle and hogs. The latter. he
said, have risen to such an extent
that the business Of many packers
Is threatened and some have been
forced out.
Omcials Of the Agriculture De-
partment and the Once of Price
Administration contend that an
other major factor in the Eastern
shortage is the tremendous govern
ment buying for the armed forces
and for lease lend shipments.
But there is plenty on the farms
and I believe the situation will take
care Of itself" one prominent Wash
ington meat merchant said.
A representative of large pack
ing firm here said that anothe,
cause of the shortage in hog prod
ucts is the seasonal nature of hos
marketing.
