Higher Food Prices
Doubted by Experts;
LeveIing Off Seen
By Malcolm Lomborne, Jr.

Agriculture Department off,
cials today discounted reports OF
a general sharp rise in food
prices and maintained that
prices were in for "leveling of
in the months ahead.
-: Department economists were
standing by an earlier prediction
that last November's all-time high
in food prices would not be reached
again.
Sd. One expert said record-breaking
prices being paid for hogs and a
squirt in wheat prices were only
temporary" He added: "Of course
there might be dollar-a-pound pork
but consumer resistance will take
care of that"
Hogs hit $50 a hundred pounds.
the highest on record, at Chicago
Yesterday, and a meat packing Of
fetal commented that consumers
seem willing to pay higher prices.
The weekly wholesale food index
kept by Dun & Bradstreet reached
a new high Of 1862 for the week
ending yesterday, the Associated
Press reported In the previous week
the index, which represents the COM
bined cost per pound of 81 food
items. stood at $6.47, as against s4,16
a year earlier. Last weeks figure
thus is more than so per cent over
last year.
Moderate" Advance Admitted.
Washington meat wholesalers said
they doubted that pork would Jump
to 81 a pound retail. However, they
conceded wholesale prices on pork
products had advanced moderately.
Raymond Briggs, chairman of the
wholesale food division Of the Mer-
chants and Manufacturers Associa-
ton, said live hog prices were bound
to drop" He pointed out that plenty
of other types of meat were avail
able here and that If pork prices
got out Of hand, trade resistance
will take care of that"
The rise in wheat prices was at
tributed to a big demand for export
grain. This demand is expected to
continue if Congress votes funds for
continued relief feeding abroad.
1--WE are coming into the period Of
rising production, when there will
be more dairy products and fresh
vegetables coming to market" an
Agriculture Department ofhcial
added
Eggs and frozen flsh are plentiful
In addition, holders OF processed
foods may be expected to start un-
loading and reducing prices as new
produce becomes available, the ex-
pert pointcd out.
1T all adds up to possibility OF
a very temporary increase in price
OF some foods, followed by a level
ing off as we 60 into the heavy
production season." he declared.
AS crops are marketed later this
year, further price declines can be
expected.
More than 200 members Of Con-
eress, guests last night of the Ma
tional Cooperative Milk Producers
Federatio were warned that a dis
astrous break" in dairy prices was
in the making.
John Brandt, president OF the
farm group, declared that unless the
Agriculture Department acted quick
ly in announcing adequate price
minimums for dairy products, mar
ket chaos" will occur this spring,
followed by shortages of butter and
other products next fall.
The dinner, held at the Hotel
Statler in honor Of members OF
Congress, followed two-day meet
ing of dairymen from 40 States.
