Department of Agriculture has proposed to amend lederal meat inspec tion regulations to restrict the qualilications under which meat dealers are granted "re tailer exemptions” from Fed eral inspection requirements. The proposal would give greater assurance ot the wholesomeness of meat sold direct to consumers, includ ing meat sold in hotels, res taurants, and institutions, USDA said. The proposal was made by the Consumer and Market ing Senice to limit the “re tailer exemption” privilege to smaller retail meat dealers, in line with the original pur pose ot the Federal Meat In spection Act. C&MS moat inspection of ficials explained that the Act prondes for exempting from federal inspection those le tail meat dealers and butch ers usually located nedr state borders—'ivho sell meat directly to “consumers” acioss state lines. To qualify for such an ex emption under existing reg ulations, such letail meat dealers must sell at least 50 percent of their meat prod ucts directly to consumers. Once exempted, they are permitted during any week to ship acioss State lines without Federal inspection to consumers and other retail outlets, such as grocery stores, not more than 5 car casses ot cattle, 25 of calves, 20 of sheep, 25 of lambs, 10 of swine, 20 of goats, or 25 of goat kids, or the equiva lent of fresh meat. In addi tion, they can ship an un limited lolunie ot salted, y - FLORIN DAIRY FEEDS for your cows pay off in greater milk productivity The 4-H idea began to ma terialize in the late 1890’s when rural school superin tendents encouraged students to plant corn, tend a garden, sew and cook.

Under present legulations, exempted establishments must also comply with the Act’s requirements as to sanitary facilities, restrictions on the use ot dyes, chemicals, and pieservathes, and other pio vlsions to assure the whole someness and pioper label ing ot meat products. While the term "consuni eis” is not defined in the Act, USDA said it has been con stiued to include restauiants, hotels, boaiding houses, or similar institutions as well as household consumers —• as the teim applies to the ledeial meat inspection pio grams. In recent years, a new type ot meat supplier has ecolxed m the industry who specialises in large volume sales of meat and meat prod ucts to hotels, restaurants, and institutions, USDA said. Basing their applications on the fact that they “retail” moie than 50 percent of their products direct to such 'broad ly defined “consumers,” many of these large volume sup pliers have been granted ex emption from federal inspec tion under existing regula tions. C&MS officials said the Act was not intended to exempt from fedeial inspection such large volume suppliers who sell acioss state lines The pioposed amendment to the regulations would restrict such retailer exemptions to smaller operators w r ho sell chiefly to consumers.
