B. Brette of New York, is mainly RESPONSE
BILE for the prohibition of the importation
of American bacon, and says the
chamber should make it publicly
known that the pamphlet must
be considered mere stroke
of business enterprise" and that no i'm
portance whatever must be attributed to
us remarks about the quality of goods.
The committee add: Some remarks by the
New York Stats Ieltung, as well as some
other American papers, to the effect that
dead hogs are used for the manufacture OF
lard, and that the product of hogs used for
mercantile purposes is called Lard A l,
| have done the greatest harm, and contrib
uted toward the establishment of prejudice
against American hog products with some
members of our government, who
without any experience of the matter take
theoretical view of it, and seem to think
the public may be led to believe this lard is
also fit for consumption. Everybody ac'
quainted with the trade knows this is inn
| possible. Nevertheless We would recon-
mend that for this name be substituted
another, perhaps "Refuse AL" which
would render misunderstanding OF tina
kind impossible. Any term that does moi
contain the word "lard' would suit the
purpose in order to secure repeal; your gov
eminent should take the trouble Of making
necessary investigations which would es
tablsh the following facts: First, hat M
diseased hogs or dead hogs are usedfor the
export trade; second, that examination o
goods when shipped is a very strict one
SO much 80 that only fully cured and whole
some meat can pass it. When the opinion
of our leading men has changed in favor
importation, such investigation cal
only have beneficial inhuenc
on the whole trade in American products
in general At the same time they would
certainly prove the best means OF removing
the existing prejudice and securing the re
peal of the prohibition lately issued. 1t is
, however, evident that such measures, or l
fact any effort in this direction can be
avail when sanctioned and backed by you
, government, and If upon such Official exam
ination, prohibition appears TO be based O.
Misrepresentation, the repeal OF the prom
bition ought to be obtained.
