Ann Arbor consumers are nowv
paying generally less for individual
food item purchases than April
1953, according to a Chamber of
Commerce analysis.
Robert Gage, Manager of the
Ann Arbor Chamber of Commerce,
issued a list of monthly food prices
composed of 25 representative
items. Included were bread, but-
ter, meats, milk, fruits, canned
vegetables, and various other
popular foodstuffs.
The aggregate of these items
sold for $11.37 in April 1953, rose
to $12.25 in April 1954, and today
sells for $10.71, a 21/2 year low.
The groceries were charted at
the same Ann Arbor market and
constant brand names were used
during the study.
Since April 1953, meat, eggs, po-
tatoes and butter have experienced
price drops. Bacon fell from 69
to 49 cents a pound. Pork chops
are a dime less at 59 cents.
A pound of coffee which towered
at $1.29 in late 1953 rests now at
95 cents. Potatoes and butter are
5 and 14 cents lower respectively.

prices one year ago reveal milk
and bread each up 2 cents to 23
cents, margarine down 3 cents,
and ground beef holding steady
at 49 cents a pound.
The Chamber of Commerce
warned that the study was not
an officially weighted food index.
Gage noted that, "Consumers may
purchase a larger quantity of the
food items which have not fallen
in price than of items which have
become cheaper and thus their
total food bills are not less."
U' Professor
Austria Bound
After delivering a paper in At-
lanta last week, Prof. Lloyd E.
Brownell, supervisor of tie Uni-
versity's Fission Products Labora-
tory, left for Austria to speak at
a medical conference.
Prof. Brownell will tell the con-
ference later this week of the
machines that have been designed
in the laboratory to irradiate parts
of the human body.
Prior to Prof. Brownell's trip
to Badgastein, Austria for the con-
ference, he spoke before the 122nd
meeting of the American Associa-
tion for the Advancement of Sci-
ence, held Dec. 27 in Atlanta.
The topic of his talk there was
"Radiation Facilities Designed to
Process Commercial Quantities of
Food Products."
This was in conjunction with the
lab's recent work in shifting em-
phasis from sterilization, to lower
levels of radiation, which include
pasteurization and insect deinfes-
tation.
Wages Changed
A reduction from a 44 hour to'
a 40 hour work week for hourly
city employees was authorized
Tuesday night by the City Coun-
cil.
A 20-cent-an-hour pay increase
was also passed by the council for
hourly employees, instead of a 12
cent increase approved at the Dec.
19 meeting.
