Meat Pricing To
Be Revealed Soon

Washington - A new system
of price retail cuts of pork is due
to be unveiled by the Office Of
Price Administration Friday.
Long promised by the agency
to replace the present irregular
system by which each butcher has
different price maximum, the
new system is to provide uni
formity in each of the large zones
into which the country will be
divided.
The new prices, however, will
not 60 into effect until April l..
The pork schedule will be follow
ed later by similar pricing sys-
TENS on beef and other meats.
Under the new system, OPA
will fix standardized ceiling pric-
es for each type of cut, specifying,
for instance, the top price in
Zone l is so many cents per pound
for loin chops, so many cents per
pound for shoulder chops, and so
on
While the new price system
will not affect the total supply
of meat available for sale to civ
ilians, it is expected to even up
supplies between stores in the
same localities. At present, those
stores which have the highest
individual ceilings tend to get
more meat to sell than competi-
tors who have lower individual
ceilings.
