Community Council Institutes'
Study of Kosher Meat Prices

Robert Nathans has been named
by Dr. Sharmya Kleinman, chair-
man of the internal relations com-
mittee of the Jewish Community
Council, to head a subcommittee
which will make an investigation
into Kosher meat prices. Com-
plaints have been made that
prices charged for Kosher meat
have been higher than is justi-
fied by the small extra cost of
Kashr uth.

`Putzi' Freed

Once Hitler's piano player, Dr.
Ern e s t "Putzi" Hanfstaengl,
was freed by a de-Nazification
court at We il-
.i•heitn, Germany.
He • testified - he
was a friend of
Winston Chur-
chill, that the
la t e President
Roosevelt gave .
him a home near
Washington and
recalled his son
Egon from army
Hanfstaengl service to serve
International Photo as a guard — all
for weekly reports on psychologi-
Cal war.

The internal relations commit-
tee conducted a•. investigation of
a similar nature two years ago.
At that time it was found that
the cost of kosher slaughtering
was not the only factor
be
considered in the retail price of
meat: Because only certain parts
of the animal were used, it was
sometimes necessary for butchers
tu pay a premium for their meat.
The butchers also maintained
that the buying habits of house-
wives caused them to lose money
on undesired cuts of meat and
that this loss had to be made up
by raising the price on the pop-
ular cuts.
All of these questions will be
reinvestigated by the new sub-
committee and an attempt will
be made to determine whether
meat prices are actually higher
•
than they shold be.
(Mrs. S. K., writing to The
Jewish News two weeks ago, and
Mrs. H. C., in this issue, raised
the question of high meat prices
in kosher butcher shops, Their
'names were not used at their re-
quests.)
