Steak Prices
To Fall Slightly
WASHINGTON UP—Beef prices are going up at wholesale and retail. So are butcher shop cellings for ham, bacon and pork shoulder. For the housewife it will mean about two cents a pound more.
The government's Office of Price Stabilization (OPS) announced the increase in wholesale beef cellings last night and said the beef and pork retail hikes will be coming out in the next few days.
A beef carcass under the new wholesale cellings, effective Wednesday, will be about a penny-a-pound higher. The OPS said this is necessary because prices for hides and fats from a beef animal have dropped to a point denting packer processing profits.
Two big midwest packing houses immediately protested that the penny increase is not enough to help them out of a squeeze between the price of live beef and the amount they can pay for it under ceiling limitations.
Average More
The higher beef wholesale prices will require the higher retail prices. These changes in butcher shop cellings will average about 1½ to 2 cents a pound more to the housewife for beef cuts.
In adjusting wholesale beef prices, the OPS moved to correct what it said had been generally too high cellings for the better cuts of beef and too low cellings for cheaper cuts.
The good steaks weren't selling too well, so OPS plans to cut choice porterhouse, for instance, about four cents a pound. Less desirable cuts which people were scrambling for will get increased cellings.
OPS Had Choice
The OPS said it had a choice about letting beef prices go up. It could have restored packer profit margins to what they were before hide and tallow prices dropped by merely reducing the allowable price packers may pay for live cattle. This would have allowed retail prices to remain unchanged.
But the agency said this was "impractical at the present time because, since Congress eliminated slaughter controls, packers have been experiencing difficulty on obtaining cattle at the present live cattle ceiling prices."
In other words, OPS officials feared lower cattle prices might lead to a meat shortage...and a black market.

Atlantic Treaty Council Proceeds Under Proposals
OTTAWA (UP)—The disputed American proposal to extend the Atlantic Alliance to Greece and Turkey headed for a showdown today in the North Atlantic treaty council meeting here.
Top United States officials privately expressed confidence that it would eventually be approved. But opposition by any one of the 12 nations in the council could block the plan and Denmark and Norway were reported still cold to it.
Meanwhile, as the council came up to the fourth session of its Ottawa meeting, which opened Saturday and is scheduled to end Thursday, there were these other developments:
Reached Its Peak
1. The United States was reported telling its European Allies here that American economic and military aid has reached its peak and they cannot look for increased help from this side of the Atlantic to ease their permanent burdens.
2. Secretary Acheson, British Foreign Secretary Herbert Morrison and French Foreign Minister Robert Schuman conferred with foreign policy chiefs of Belgium, Holland, and Luxembourg yesterday on plans now being pushed through to give Western Germany maximum independence, short of a peace treaty, and to get German military forces into General Dwight D. Eisenhower's defense.

To Speak Before Committee—Yet
WASHINGTON (RP) — Senator Mundt (R-SD) said today William M. Boyle, Jr., Democratic national committee chairman, "will be called" by a Senate group inquiring into his relations with the RFC but that "the time to hear Mr. Boyle is not yet."
Mundt is active in the inquiry into charges that Boyle has used his political position to influence operations of the Reconstruction Finance Corporation, big government lending agency.
Two other members of a Senate investigations subcommittee disagreed over interpretation of testimony in their inquiry into Boyle's role in the granting of $645,000 of government loans to a St. Louis printing firm in 1949. The loans have been paid off in full.
Senator Nixon (R-Calif.) contended the Democratic chairman's "claims of innocence have been refuted under oath."
Far From Friendly
But Senator McClellan (D-Ak.), who is viewed generally as far from friendly to the Truman administration, said that "up to now the testimony doesn't bear out the strong implication" that Boyle collected $8,000 in "commissions" from the American Lithofold Corp., St. Louis printing firm, after it got RFC loans totaling $645,000.
The St. Louis Post-Dispatch has printed articles to that effect. Boyle says Lithofold paid him $1,250 for legal work not related to the loans.
James E. Toole, former treasurer of Lithofold, testified last week that Boyle arranged a 1949 meeting between negotiators for the firm and Harley Hise, then chairman of the RFC board of directors, and that the first of the loans was approved three days later.
Ernest B. Howard, former chief of the RFC business loans division, testified that a number of usual procedures were "by-passed" by the agency in making the loans.
Foreign Secretary Herbert Morrison and French Foreign Minister Robert Schuman conferred with foreign policy chiefs of Belgium, Holland, and Luxembourg yesterday on plans now being pushed through to give Western Germany maximum independence, short of a peace treaty; and to get German military forces into General Dwight D. Eisenhower's defense command as soon as possible.
3. Acheson told the council Saturday that the Atlantic treaty nations must press their defense

CONCLUDING VISIT
Mrs. Rose Aless Reid, grand president, Young Ladies' Grand Institute of San Francisco, and her mother, Mrs. Aless, who have been visitors in the home of Mrs. L. A. Benner, 219 So. Lemon st., have returned to their home in San Francisco. Mrs. Reid has been here making some of her official visits to YLI institutes in Districts 11 and 17; she will return in January.
Ernest B. Howard, former chief of the RFC business loans division, testified that a numbed of usual procedures were "by-passed" by the agency in making the loans.
Mundt told a reporter "there is a tacit agreement" in the subcommittee that "Boyle must testify," as he has said he is willing to do.
Mundt said the group wants to hear first, however, from R. J. Blauner, head of Lithofold when the loans were made, and from at least two other key witnesses.
