S.A.T.A. 4228 First, Tucker, GA 30084 (800) 241-9082 59tll United Press International The International Coffee Organi zation (ICO) which is to the coffee break what OPEC is to the car pool, came up today with a Madison Avenue-style solution to the prob lem of escalating prices — get coffee addicts to swallow the price as well as the product. In the United States, the coffee boycott spread to include a hospital in Chicago, a drug store in Mount Ayr, Iowa, and a New York City del icatessen. Representatives of the 62-nation ICO, comprised both of producing and consuming nations, have been huddling in London this week under the fire of worldwide outrage over coffee costs that have multip lied sevenfold in the past 18 months. \ Tuesday, the ICO’s 16-nation executive board ordered two new studies of the supply and demand situation in the world coffee market. “To the extent that better infor mation will affect or steady the mar ket, this should help,” said an American delegate to the summit conference. Today, the ICO will map out a multimillion-dollar promotion cam paign designed to convince con sumers that coffee is good at any price. That move — to be financed by both consumers and producers under terms of a six-year interna tional coffee agreement that went into effect in October — followed general agreement that neither study will do much to halt the rise of coffee prices toward a predicted U.S. retail level of $4.25 to $5.00 a pound by the end of the year. Just across the street from ICO London headquarters, a depart ment store was selling instant coffee for $7.51 a pound — $1.88 for a four-ounce jar. Mount Sinai Hospital and Medi cal Center in Chicago said Tuesday it will stop serving coffee in its LOST PERSONALS 1976 Aggie Ring. Belongs to Adolph Tingan.
