When is the price of meat go
ing down?
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.

When you're ranked 1 5th In anything — even
ranked 15th in the world — it's pretty far
down the ladder. And quite frankly it bothers
us a little, that the Pepsi Capital of the World
is presently in Dillon, South Carolina. Folks
there drink more Pepsi per person than any
where else in the world. Surely a progressive,
civic-minded community like ours can top a
small, rural community like Dillon. Our course
is simple and pleasant — drink more Pepsi.
