End ofMeat Shortage Expected This Week
 Greater Supply Anticipated During
 Coming Week; Chamber of Commerce
 Issues Statement on Controls Removal

With local branches of packing firms expecting to receive large supplies of meat next week, tomor- row may be the last of the series of Sunday dinners in which many housewives have had no choice but poultry for the main course.
 What meat was available today was principally on sale at lndepen- dent markets though one chain was reported to have fair supply for regular customers. Most stores had only chicken or turkey, and quantities of these were limited in some cases
 Prices of meat today were only moderately higher in many stores, but more instances of excessive in- creases were reported.
 The Waterbury Chamber of Con- merce in a statement issued by its Board of Directors yesterday pledg- ed it's members to resist excessive price increases. The Chamber took a strong stand in favor of rent control, declaring itself in support of whatever program may be de- sirable to continue the benefits of rent ceilings"
 The Chambers statement, issued by President Bertram B. Bailey, is as follows:
 The directors Of the Waterbury Chamber of Commerce recognize that the termination of the Office of Price Administration controls creates a grave problem for the community In a commodity in which the supply is snort, an op- portunity is now presented for prof. teering and for uncomfortable in- creases in prices. The directors feel that the consuming public should be protected against sucf practices.
 In order to accomplish this pur pose, the Waterbury Chamber 0 Commerce, through it's board of di' rectors, pledges itself and it's mem bers to resist excessive increases in the price of items bought fo1 resale, to resist excessive costs in items manufactured for sale and to abstain from excessive charges in making sales.
 "Inasmuch as the short supply of rents will probably continue fol some time, the Waterbury Cham Der of Commerce strongly sup ports whatever program may bt desirable to continue the benefit of rent ceilings. Insofar as it i! feasible to do so, the rent contro should be so enforced as to remove such inequities as may exist
