COMMUNITY SERVICE RELEASE No. 39 Local retailers selling meat were reminded by Hamer S. Culp, chairman of the Salt Lake City war price and rationing board that they are required to post in a conspicuous place the current OPA official consumer table of point values as well as the OPA charts showing the retail prices of beef, veal, lamb, mutton and pork. The meat price charts show in cents per pound how much ma; be charged for each meat cut according ac-cording to the grade of the animal ani-mal from which it was taken, it was stated. These charts showing the point values, as well as those showing the prices of meats are as much for the convenience of the storekeeper store-keeper as for the consumer, the chairman said. "Surveys have shown that there is no more effective ef-fective method of speeding service and reducing the inconvenience of wartime shopping than to display dis-play the point value and price charts in a permanent place." The July" consumer point velue tables were distributed to local post offices troughout the country, coun-try, where grocers and butchers could call for them, it was stated. In the future, OPA will mail the tables from Washington directly to the retailer. The meat price charts were mailed to all retailers retail-ers in Utah by the state office. It was suggested also that the stores selling meat should keep handy a copy of the trade value tables showing the points required requir-ed to purchase wholesale cuts of meat. These should be used to check against the point charges made by the wholesale supplier and made available to consumers who buy cuts shown on the trade chart, but not shown on the consumer con-sumer point value table, it was stated. " Trade charts are available at the local board office. |
