Why Is 1t That the American Goods Sell
Cheaper in England Than at Home?

American goods of every charac-
Der sell cheaper in London today
than in America, despite the added
cost of rail and ocean transporta-
ton. 1t is one of the conditions
wrought by the trustfostering high
protective tariff.
This claim has been made for
years, the public has believed it in
a general way, though manufacture
ers have denied it, and now, by a
painstaking investigation, made
simultaneously in London and
American cities, correspondents Of
The Press have proved it.
American commodities only were
considered in this investigation,
which proves conclusively that the
trusts are making all staples ex-
pensive to the American consumer
and cheap to the foreigner.
The deadly parallel here given
shows that meats shipped from
Kansas City, Omaha and Chicago;
steel products from Pittsburg;
watches from New England; har-
vesters from cities of the middle
west; cereals from the great north
west; shoes from Boston, and an
innumerable array of products from
all states sell cheaper in London
than here.
This is one of the most amazing

WASHINGTON, D. c., Nov. 81
Beware of the Thanksgiving tur
key. This is the warning of Dr.
Harvey D. Wiley, United States
government food expert. The aver
age Thanksgiving bird is taken
from the cold storage warehouse
and is not fit to eat. 1t does not
taste good and it is bad for the
stomach.
LET the housewife get a fresh
turkey, superintend the killing and
do her own hanging if the bird is to
be hung" is DR.. Wiley's advice on
the subject. "A couple of weeks
hanging in the open air in cool
weather will not hurt the average
bird. But a cold storage bird hung
two weeks in the open will not be
fit to eat"
An official report on cold storage
fowl is now being written by Dr.
Wiley, and for the present he will
dine off of other things than tur-
keys, geese, chickens and game
The report will be something fierce
For two years the department OF
chemistry, under authority from
congress, has been investigating
and experimenting with cold stor
age eats, eggs, etc. and only ten
der solicitude for a thankful public
prevents the publication of the re,
port before Nov. %.

no way in which the housewife may
detect cold storage turkey from
fresh one. There is. however, a
very great difference. EXamina.

To the expert 1t smells differently
and tastes differently. Invariably

cases storage meats are kept from

lies the danger in eating this kind

The secret of the discrimination
to the American manufactures lies
| partly in the concessions made him
by the shipping agencies, both rail
and water. The combination eX-
tends into ocean shipping as widely
as into American manufacture. The
allied trust interests work hand in
hand.
Robt. ID. Holt, m. p, head of the
Lamport & Holt Shipping Co. of
Liverpool, which has refused to join
the ocean shipping combine, said:
at costs as much to ship cotton
from New Orleans to Boston as it
does from New Orleans to Liver
pool.
This condition obtains with all
other classes of merchandise. This
is not the result of the legal impos-
sibility of any but American ships
engaging in the American coasting
trade. 1t is the old, old story of
making things dear for the home
consumer and cheap for the for
eigner."
Now, Mr.. American Consumer,
add in the cost OF transportation to
London prices for American made
goods and estimate for Yourself
what the trust system cost you in
one year.
