Mrs. Kean Luke and son Ted launch a weather balloon for envimnmental tests by North American Weather. Congressman Gunn McKay last week signed a telegram to president Nixon urging that toe freese on beef prices be immediately removed. He was one of toe 63 congressman signing toe telegram, representing 32 states. The president Imposed the free re to keep beef prices down," McKay said. Hie result has been a virtual disappearance of beef from toe market. If s a highly emotional and unstable situation, and toe shortage of beef is causing toe price of poultry and other meat products to rise." The freeze on beef prices has had immediate Impact on toe meat packing industry, McKay said. Already, smaller plants are closed and thousands of employees have been laid off. Beef shortages aredevO-lopi- ng throughout toe nation, worried consumers are buying toe remaining beef in quanltlty and freezing it, and beef already has disappeared from supermarket shelves in some parts of toe country. The beef freeze also has created a crisis in the cattle industry," McKay said. Producers cannot raise toe price of beef, even though their costs for feed grains and other products necessary to raise cattle are rocketing." The cattle futures market Is in chaos, black markets are developing, and cattle are being shipped toCanadaand. Japan to toe markets there." McKay said toe beef freeze is also hurting toe consumer. As beef becomes scarce, prices for other meat products become artificially high. I think this Is a serious problem which the President can immediately solve, McKay said. H he Insists on waiting until Sept. 12 to lift toe freeze, I feel toe beef Industry could be permanently damaged and toe consumer will end bearing toe cost.
