One" of the: key points the

cerns the role -played by the Live­

a .semigovernment body which
‘maintains the prices of beef high
in ordei’ to protect the domestic
industry.’Because of this agency,
the-low-priced imported .beef„ is
retailed here, at prices competi­
tive with domestic products.
When contacted by The Japan

of the Japan Meat Journal, said
he did place “some restrictions”
on Yokota’s activities. “There-is
no problem about the contents of

action was taken against Yokota
