ST. LOUIS LABOR COUNCIL
REJECTS BOYCOTT METHOD

ST. LOUIS. Jan. 23.-The anti-nleat
crusade in this city suffered It's first
setback today when the Federated Trades
and Labor council representing 10000
union men voted down resolution 10
cschew meat for thirty days.
The question was debated for t%o
hours and finally was rejected on the
ground that such action would accom-
plish nothing. while il would cause real
suffering among members OF the council.
Several unions have acted independent
" of the federated body and are dis
tributing PIECES.
The Retail Butchers association passed
resolution that high prices OF meat
are caused by the demand OF immigrants
for veal and Young pigs.

BOYCOTT ON MEAT
SPREADS RAPIDLY
Senator Bristow Says Reyolu-
tiOns Have Started With
Even Less PrOyOcatiOn.
PACKERS DECLARE PRICES
WILL GO STILL HIGHER
Poor Should Be Taught to Eat
Less Choice Cuts,
They Say.

Revolutions hayo been started by less
than the American people are suffering
now. says Senator Joseph l.. Bristow OF
Kansas. Meat foots up 10 a quarter
OF the average household expenses, and
1t ought to be cheaper today instead OF
dearer than it was twenty-five years
ago, because OF the greater economy in
It's preparation and sale. When i was
boy 20 per cent of the carcass went
TO waste. Now nothing goes TO waste
not even the blood"
Senator Bristow's words crystallize the
sentiment OF protest in all parts OF the
country against the higher cost of liv-
Ing Thus far the movement, which irst
took form in AN actual boycott at Clevc-
land. has met with most success in the
west The east has been slower TO fol-
feeling among small l-dealers. and IN the
Ia Dor unions, that universal boycott.
| though effective as a protest, would
actually play into the hands of the pack
ers. who. with their control OF cold stor
age houses and refrigerators lines. could
carry their product through A prolonged
boycott through thirty days cessation
of trade and would put the small inde-
pendcnts out OF business.
Against public clamor. the packers re-
ply that high prices for meats are at
trbutable TO high prices OF corn. and ad-
vocate that the poor be educated 10
eat cheaper cuts.
These cuts arc just as good and more
