Are the Packers Receiving Fair PIay7

When the Garfield report on the
business methods Of the packers ap-
peared, after eight months investiga-
ton, it was severely criticised and
roundly denounced. After three
months of publicity it is significant
that those who attempted to discredit
it have failed to controvert the figures
contained in that exhaustive docu-
ment The public is beginning to no
tice this omission, and the feeling Is
rapidly growing that the sensational
charges out of which the Beef In
vestigation" arose were without foun-
dation- II the official statements OF
the report are susceptible of contra
dictiOn. . good many people are now
asking why the facts and figures are
not furnished to contradict them.
The truth seems to be that most OF
the charges contain unfounded sensa-
tional assertions. A fragrant example
OF this appeared in a recent article in
an. Eastern magazine, to the effect
that forty Iowa banks were forced
to close their doors in 1904 by the
Beef Trusts manipulation Of cattle
prices" Chief Clerk Cox, Of the bank
ing department Of the Iowa State Au-
ditor's office, has tabulated the list OF
banks, given in the magazine article
and has publicly denounced the state
ment as utterly untrue. He gives
separately the reasons for each fail.
ure mentioned and officially states
that they have been caused by unwise
speculations and by reckless banking
methods. It may be well to suspend
judgment upon the packers until the
charges against them are proved.
