Washington, Dec. ment has 30 million pounds of fresh frozen beef that it will sell to mayors and governors, in oar-load lots, at 10 less than the packers will sell It. Is this much beef? From the standpoint of vegetarians, It is more than the j)eople should ever eat. From the viewpoint dietitions, it is as much as the 100,000,000 people in the United States should eat in two days. From the angle of the cowpuncher, it means a herd of 45,001 steers.

From the standpoint of consumers, it is as much beef as they could buy $12,000,000 at current retail The government expects to "get about for it, laid down at the point of consumption. And furthermore, the government expects this meat to save the consumers $0,000,000 on their mear bill. And this is what is worrying the fire big packers. They have tried to buv this meat, which is stored in New York and Chicago, for export, but th-i government refused to sell on their terms. The packers want to buy tins beef, unload it on Europe at a big price and prevent a reduction in meat prices in America.

Mayors who want to give their stituents cheap meat may purchase this frozen beef, by applying to any of the government zone retail stores, for from .10 to 12 cents per pound. Thev may get local meat dealers to handle it at a fixed margin of profit, but fair. The government thinks it should sell for from in to 20 cents a pound to consumers. The ogvemment also has 1,000,000 pounds of pork shoulders that it will ship in the same cars with beef wliil-' it lasts at 171-2 cents a pound. This will give the people cheaper pork roasrts than they have seen in years.

It also has 600.000 pounds of mutton that it wi'l ship as far west as the Alleghenv mountains and 100,000.000 pounds of chickens it will sell on the eastern board for 30 cents a pound.
