railways to manipulate the interstate
commerce law convention last Octo-
ber and expressed qualification thae
the public grasped the true situation
there He urged the live stock men
to endeavor to secure the extension
from twenty -eight to thirty-siX hours
as the time limit for shipping stock
without unloading to water and feed.
He reminded the convention that the
lines are bing drawn tightly in the
markets c,f the world against the i'm
portation of live stock from this coun-
try. He hoped some action would be
taken by the convention that would
suggest a method for having removed
the restriction placed by England and

stated that much greater quantity OF
meat products could be exported did
this government provide more ade-
quate inspection.

Public Bitter at Packers.
Mr.. Hagenbarth said in part:
'It is asserted that we, in the United
States are curtailing our consumption
OF beef and beef products. This, if
true, can be accounted for primarily
from the fact that many people desir-
ing to give vent to their feeling against
the so-called beef trust have decreased
their consumption Of beef, and thus
visited their wrath on the producer
Secondly, the high price at which
choice cuts Of beef are retailed. and
which cuts supply the greatest beef
demand has a further tendency to de-
crease the consumption. Thirdly,
large proportion Of beef is marketed.
which is so inferior in quality as not
to be available for home consumption"
