Deconicl Board Orders

OPA Is Given Until Friday. To Establish New Livestock Prices: No Curb Put on Milk

By EULALIE McDOWELL United Press Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON, Aug. 21.—OPA set out today to roll back most meat prices by Friday to June 30 levels.

But the sky was still the limit

By order of the price decontrol board, controls were. restored on livestock and on soy beans, cotton seed and their products. Dairy products and most grains, the board ruled, must remain

free of price curbs, The decision, announced last night, had been Washington's bestkept secret since the atom bomb. Even OPA was kept in thetark. For that reason, OPA held the new oontrols in suspension for two days while it draws up necessary regulations. Price ceilings to become effective at 12:01 a. m. (Indianapolis time) Friday will be announced tomorrow, OPA said. Meat Subsidies to Return One OPA official believed ceilings on most meat cuts could be restored to levels in effect on June 30. The roll back, he noted, will be aided by restoration of meat subsidies as ordered by the decontrol board. In restoring meat controls the board authorized OPA to put back into effect the same subsidies that

were applied to meat on June 30. An agriculture department official sald these subsidies—totaling $864 million in fiscal 1946—should be sufficient to allow a rollback .of meat prices to June 30 levels. Consumers meanwhile had it on authority of the three-man decontrol board that their troubles are! not yet over. Board Members Roy L. Thomp-| son, Daniel W.

Milk Prices to Be Watched The board declined to clamp controls on milk because, it said, prices have failed to rise “unreasonably” since ceilings were lifted. It added, however, that prices of

sion after nine days of hearings and study. The task was given the board after congress failed to reach a price decision on ‘many commodities after six months of wrangling. { Now the board must study pos-| sible price action on poultry, eggs, tobacco, and petroleum. Congress said these products will remain control-free unless the board decides otherwise,’ In restoring meat controls, the board authorized OPA to put back into effect the same subsidies that | were applied to meat on June 30.

That| cushion probably can absorb any | subsequent increases in the farmers’) {cost of living. | To ease the transition into a sub-sidy-free era beginning, by order of! congress, on April 1, the board de-| creed that the subsidy payments 1 must be cut in half not later than | Jan. 10.
