“DOBBIN STEAK”
“As Good As Any Other” (Rec. 6.30 p.m.) NEW YORK. Jan. 8. A butcher's shop devoted exclusively to the sale of horse meat has been opened at Summit, New Jersey. The proprietor insisted that “dobbin steak” was as good as any other. The Mayor of New York. Mr H. F. la Guardia, admitted that the meat shortage was critical, but issued a warning to butchers that if they insisted on selling horsemeat he would force them to erect a sign 12 feet high with a picture of a horse on it. He added that horsemeat was degrading.
