D3o—Lancaster Farming, Saturday, December 6,1980 DENVER, Colo. - The National Cattlemen’s Association recently voiced strong opposition to the Administration plans to suspend limits on meat imports in 1961. The NCA statement followed a government estimate of 1981 imports and an announcement of plans to suspend quotas and not negotiate import restraints with the exporting nations. The U.S. Department of Agriculture has now estimated that, without controls, imports subject to the Meat Import Law would total 1,458 million pounds in 1961. This is 11 million pounds more than the import law, with its counter-cyclical quota formula, would nor mally permit next year. Claiming that the total meat supply in 1981 will be inadequate, the Ad ministration said it intended to suspend the import quotas which apply to beef and veal By law, the Administration must make a decision on 1981 meat import restrictions by January 1.

Sale By Order Of Executor EARLE HAHN Don Ostrander Auctioneer For Information call Ken Warfield - 215-489-9730 Owner & Auctioneer not responsible for Loss or Accident NCA opposes meat import quota suspension president, strongly criticized the Carter administration’s action, and he pointed out that, as in past cases like this, the action actually could be counter-productive and hurt the public as well as cattlement. Carlson said, “First, it should be recognized that, because of rapidly escalating costs as well as lower cattle prices, most cattlemen have been losing money recently. While the estimated amount of extra meat to be unported is not large, the government’s action may create more uncertainty and discourage many cattlemen. This can halt or limit the rebuilding of cattle herds. As a result, the public may see less beef and higher prices in future years than otherwise would be the case. “Secondly, I point out that domestic beef producers in 1981 will be about as large as in 1980. The consumer price problem that the govern ment refers to is a result basically of government caused inflation as well as smaller supplies of other meats.
