Blow to Wimpy— Hamb

Boost Due Monday on Retail Level

By United Press

WASHINGTON, Sept. 28— Hamburger and hot dogs jump in prices next Monday. Hamburger will go up as

"much as 4 cents a pound. Frank-|% furters and other processed meats §

such as sausages and baloney will go up even more. The price rises will result from an order issued by the Office of Price Stabilization last night revising ceiling prices on beef cuts ranging from stewing meat to porterhouse steaks. The revisions—mostly upward | —yere made to allow the butcher er pace with the higher ceilirigs set last week on wholesale meat. On beef cuts the housewife buys most, the price increases will average 1% to 2 cents a pound. Prices on Plateau Price Chief Michael V. DiSalle said after the -orders he believed meat prices have reached 4 “plateau.” : Mr. DiSalle said, “we don't like meat and livestock prices at their present high level,” but he felt the government was “licking the meat problem.” The new beef ceilings vary widely according to grade, cut and where the meat is sold—from increases of as much as 29 cents a pound on the cheapest grades of utility beef to decreases of as much as 20 cents a pound on brisket stewing beef. Biggest increases were made in prime and utility grades, which each make up only about 10 per cent of the total beef supply. Prices on choice cuts — which make up 35 per cent of the beef supply and is bought by most housewives — will jump an average of 1% to 2 cents a pound. Display Restrictions y While allowing higher prices, the new regulation will also place tighter restrictions on how the butcher displays his meat. The order will provide that the butcher must place different grades of beef in different compartments and label each according to grade and price. $ To. protect the consumer still further, the OPS is preparing

That's the estimated amount Indiana would lose in federal grants in two years. “I think we should leave the law as it is and pay the freight,” commented builder-realtor A. H.' M. Graves. One of the voices to be heard came from! Realtor Robert Allison. |

“Don’t change the law,” he urged. “Nothing could help the Democrats more. It's Republican mistakes like this one which have been helping the Democrats win elections for the past 20 years.”
