When the average family in come goes down, says the Nat- ional Live Stock and Meat Board. The current issue of the organi zation’s industry newsletter, Meat Board Reports, states con sumers must face the fact of higher meat prices: “There can be no going back to the meat prices of ‘the good old days’, unless we want to go back to the standard of living and pay- check of the ‘good old days’. “Continued, expanded pros perity depends on a strong eco nomy. The strength in that eco nomy, like the strength of the hu man body, is directly dependent on the industry that produces food. It, too, must be strong.* If it were not, the Meat Board GRADUATE —Richard M. (Rick) Sanders of Clinton received the B. A. Degree in Music last week at Newberry Col lect. He is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Leroy San ders. He has accepted a position as band instruc tor in the Lexington City Schools. says, food prices would be even higher and some foods more scarce. It’s unlikely that meat prices will “go out of sight,* in any event, according to David H. Stroud, Meat Board President. “The classic supply and demand economic factor always has been a strong control on food prices,’ he said, “which is one reason meat prices always have lagged far behind other consumer pro ducts in inflated money periods. It’s the reason that meat costs are not 50 to 100 percent higher than they are now.’ Stroud said the cost of red meats, as a percentage of dis posable income, is less than it was 20 years ago; that it now buys 40 more pounds of meat per capi tal. In the same period of time, he said, the average disposable income of American consumers has jumped by more than 50 per cent . “The people who produce meat have the same right to share in prosperity as those who pro duce -- and those who buy --TV sets, cars and houses,” Stroud said. “The guy on the farm, ranch and feedlot, like others in agriculture, hasn’t gotten much of a piece of the action in our national prosperity. Sure, he’s eating regularly, and his child ren probably can go to college. But he’s a businessman, too. . . heavily invested in his own‘man ufacturing plant, ’ just like the TV or auto manufacturer. For the first time in years, he’s begin ning to see a ‘reasonable’ re turn on his investment. Even so, like everyone else, he’s paying more today for every piece of goods and all the services he requires to produce cattle, hogs and sheeps; but receiving fewer real dollars than he did 20 years ago. “Measured in real percent ages, the livestockproducer’s in come has been going in the re verse direction from the take- home pay of meat buying consum er,” Stroud said. ****¥*****■»***♦♦**♦*♦**¥**#*#* NOW WE'RE Ltfr'* Go To Tht Top!

Surely a progressive, civic-minded community like ours can top a small, rural community like Dillon.
