Food Prices Remain Steady For Week (By the Associated Press) Retail food prices held fairly steady this week, with no notable changes either up or down. Pork loin roasts, chops and bacon were reduced one to four cents a pound in many places. Butter climbed one to two cents a pound, continuing the seasonal uptrend that began weeks ago. Egg prices turned irregular after dropping about 14 cents a dozen in the two weeks following Thanksgiving day. Prices of several fresh produce items eased slightly this week. Snap beans, Brussels sprouts, cauliflower, cucumbers, eggplant, lettuce, peppers, spinach and most citrus fruits were lower. Lettuce and peppers were still unusually high because of light shipments. Cranberries also were relatively high. Higher prices for fresh fruits and vegetables, dairy products, lamb and eggs were blamed for pushing the government's retail food index to a new record high between Nov. 15 and 26. The index for the eight cities surveyed was up about 2.6 per cent from the previous month and 15 per cent above the average just before the Korean war began.

WHITE Gazette Home Economist The price of eggs is going down, red Washington Winesap apes and California navel oranges, skinned grapefruit from Arizona can almost be classed as sap, and pork is still the best in the meat line.
