Expanding Income
Predicted To
Raise Meat Price
CHICAGO, Dec. 29 —bP>— More
meat but at higher prices was
served up on the national platter
this year. The experts calculate the
same trends for 1951.
They reason that consumer in-
comes are on the rise. As short-
ages of durable goods increase,
even a larger proportion of the
expanding income will go into com-
petition for meat, thus forcing
prices higher.
And though greater meat sup-
plies appear to be in the offing,
military needs may reduce the civil-
ian supply below' the leved avail-
able this year, already squeezed by
a population increase of some 19
million in the last 10 years.
More for Meat
In summing up the meat situa-
tion, the Federal Reserve bank of
Chicago said, "The retail value of
meat consumed per per.son is closely
related to disposable income per
ixtrson. During periods of full em-
ployment and shortages of other
consumer goods, more
usual proportion of disposable m- M^j.Zs JoC ^
come is spent for meat. I Sile W n,ld MrS‘
