1906, United states Senator Beverldge,
OF Indiana, said:
NEARLY everybody eats meat, and so
long as everybody eats meat the meat
industry should DO organized so that
1t can serve all the people. But the
government Of all the people. whom the
organized meat industry serves. should
SIZE that 1t deals Justly by all the PEG.
pie whom 1t serves.
"And so, while the government Of
all the people should not own the meat
industry that serves all the people. It
should regulate the meat industry that
serves all the people. When that bust.
ness becomes so great that II affects
all the people 1t becomes not only a
private business but public business.
Tho profits for its owners are no longer
the sole consideration, but the health Of
tho people Is also q consideration"
The United States government Is to
withdraw Its suits against the Beef
Trust because the government Is afraid
that 1t would not get Justice In Its
own courts!
