in the High level of employment
that has prevailed this spring
and early summer coupled with
steadily rising personal incomes.
Housewives, with higher family
incomes, have apparently been in
clined to increase their purchases
of meat and to keep right on buy
ing it even though their collective
action has been to force prices
higher and higher.
Meat is perishable product and
fear of a war could not induce
any significant boarding. The
answer apparently is that consum-
ers remember the meat rationing
days of World War II and are de-
termined to eat as much meat as
possible now, come what may. If
the foregoing analysis is correct,
then any collective action by
consumers to assist present price
levels by reducing purchases could
bring about a swift reversal of
the present trend.
Building materiais are the only
other important group of commod-
tiles that have experienced a more
than average rise in wholesale
prices. The gain this year has
! been nearly 6 percent and prices
now are almost back to the peak
levels that prevailed in the fall
of 1948. Unprecedented building
activity is responsible for the in
tense demand for materials, and
lumber price increases have been
particularly sharp. More recently,
the cost of various metal building
supplies has moved up.
The impact of the war news up
on the sensitive primary commod-
ity prices in the "spot" or cash
wholesale markets has been rather
small. From June %, or just be-
fore hostilities began, to July z
the Bureau of Labor Statistics
daily index for % commodities ir
the primary market rose almost
A percent. In addition Some further
rises took place this week.
Significantly, perhaps, two inn
portant war materials actually
dropped in price in this two-weel
period. Flaxseed declined 6 per.
cent and lead dropped one-hall
cent a pound to II cents. The lat
ter is now only one-half CEN
above its postwar low point. Stee
scrap, copper and zinc prices die
not change. Fears that war woult
interrupt supply lines for tin pro
badly were a factor in the per
cent rise of that product to 80.
cents pound.
Concern over future natura
rubber supplies together with yer.

Wholesale prices increased 12
percent in the first two weeks of
the Korean War. This was for the
period ended July A and marked
some acceleration in the creeping
advance which has been underway
all of this year. Since January the
gain for the entire period has
amounted to nearly 5 percent.
These comparisons are based up
on the Bureau of Labor Statistics
weekly wholesale price index
which is an abbreviated version
of the comprehensive monthly in
dex covering about 900 commod-
tiles and services.
Wholesale prices are now nearly
percent higher than year ago.
During the coming weeks COM
parsons with the year-ago periods
may show even larger year-to-year
margins, particularly because
prices continued to drop in 1949
until December. Despite the re-
cent gains, it is worth noting that
wholesale prices are still 6 per-
cent below the all-time peak reg
istered in August 1948.
Most of the rise in the general
price level has been due to the
unusual strength of agricultural
and food prices. Since January,
farm products have risen 10 per-
cent, with about one third of this
gain taking place in the week end
ed July 4. Wholess1e food prices
are up nearly Z percent. In con-
trast to these gains, all commod-
tiles other than farm products and
foods rose only 2 percent in the
first 6 months of the year.
Within the food group, gains in
meat prices have been almost
spectacular, since they have ad-
vanced more than 20 percent since
the first of the year. Hog prices
were about $1,000 hundred
pounds at the beginning of the
year, but on July 7 were nearly
S24.00 a hundred pounds. This
was a gain of 50 percent. During
the same interval, steer prices
weakened in the spring under the
impact of the seasonal rise in hog
marketing, and have now returned
to about the level prevailing at
the first of the year.
The rise in wholesale meat
prices is not due to any shortage
of meats. In fact, combined pro-
duction of dressed pork, beef, veal,
lamb and mutton by the packing
houses have been running about
3 percent above 1949. Pork pro-
duction has been considerably
higher than this average gain for
all meats. Since there have also
been larger marketings of poultry,
consumers have not had to bid
up meat prices because Of short
age of this item. Eggs, too, have
been SO abundant that the Com
modify Credit Corporation has
been buying them and taking them
off the market in unprecedented
quantities in order to maintain
prices in accordance with the Con-
gressional mandate.
The answer to the riddle of
rising meat prices in the face of
plentiful supplies is to be found
