New Ceiling Price
On All Beef Cuts

Retail butchers are required to
post, by June 4, the new ceiling
prices for beef cuts which go in
to effect May IA, according to
Edward F. Wagner, district OPS
director.
These beef prices will be ef-
fective until July 81. On that
date, the Office of Price Stabili-
zation will put into effect the
first of two ceiling price re-
ductions. The next reduction will
take place October l.
The step-by-step reduction in
retail beef prices will result in
an average decline of 10 per
cent by fall Wagner said. Actual
percentage reduction will be
partly dependent on the type and
style of beef cuts. The ceilings
effective next week hold retail
prices at about the freeze level
of last February.
The Office of Price Stabiliz-
alton controlling beef prices is
part of a group of regulations
that reduce the prices that
slaughters can pay for beef cat
tie and that wholesalers may
charge retail butchers. The cat
tie prices will be reduced about
10ao ON May 20, another 4laGo
July %, and still another 41a%o on
September 30.
The price slaughterers may pay
for cattle are the lowest which
would protect cattle feeders
against inventory losses en- cat
tie acquired before the freeze
date. The three reductions con-
slider both the feeders position
and assurance of orderly market
ing through normal channels.
The new beef ceiling prices are
based on zones that take into ac-
count distances from markets,
transportation and the like. In
Columbus and southeastern Ohio,
ceilings for zone IL apply

is not dead, the senate has voted
against dispersal of some $4,000
government employees to nearby
Maryland and Virginia and else
where in the country to insure
continuity of vital governmental
activities in event of atomic at
tack on Washington. The vote
was relatively close, As to 80. The
vote came, however, on a

program has been under study in

the cost has been estimated up
