MEAT PRICES

May Drop Under OPA Level

Within’6 Weeks, Some Experts Believe.

By OLIN D. RUSSELL Seripps-Howard Staff Writer WASHINGTON, Oct, 22.—A week after price control of meat went

off you could get a T -bone steak in Indianapolis at 80 cents a pound

and at El Paso at 65 cents. In Indianapolis that was 20 to 40 cents lower than black-market prices, and 10 cents lower thanson the first day without OPA, although most dealers had no meat that. day. If the price of a T - bone was too high and you wouldn't settle for a lesser cut, you could fight back with that new weapon, “consumer Tesistance,” and resort’ to time-tried substitutes, poultry and eggs, whose prices were invitingly down-pitched. That was the general picture throughout the country today. It came about more quickly than was expected. There were even predictions that today's high prices for meat might drop below old OPA levels in a month or six weeks. Credit consumer resistance— mama with her marketbasket—plus a re-oiling of the old machinery of supply and demand, for the generally favorable situation, as revealed in a survey by. the ScrippsHoward newspapers. Average Community Take Indianapolis as an average community, or even New York whose staple food larder was well stocked for the first time in many months, Consumer resistance was credited with depressing prices in both places, and as much as 10 cents a pound at the wholesale level in New York. In Indianapolis 20 to 30 per cent of housewives shied sway from high prices. Everywhere the movement of livestock to market continued in heavy quantities, so much so that packers were slowed in filling the! pipelines to butcher counters.
