BOYCOTT ON BEEF
EUROPEAN NATIONS AND JAPAN
LIKELY TO FOLLOW ENG
LANDS INITIATIVE.
CONSUMER TO Benefit
Means Partial Solution Of the "High
Cost Of Living" ProbIem.-Farm-
ers and Stock Raisers Will
Be Principal Losers.

Chicago, Ill. The high cost
of living" question is to find q par
tial solution in the exclusion of the
beef trust" from competing for Eng
lish army contracts and the antici-
pated boycotting of products of the
United States trust by the general
public of that isle.
II the packers fear that Russia, Ger
many, Italy, France and Japan will
follow the precedent established by
England is founded upon fact, meat
and meat by-products will take a de-
cided slump and the workingman will
be the triumphant winner, with the
stock raisers Of the country-not the
paCkers-holding the small end of the
horn.
The law Of supply and demand is
the basis for the prediction Of the
packers and board of trade men. They
declare that IL the American exporta-
tion Of meat and by-products is cut
of and the packers are forced to cater
to the domestic trade alone, the price
Of meat can only be held up by a
terrific display Of physical force"
To stem the slump would be as fu-
tile, they say. as for one man to at
tempt to dam the Mississippi river at
its mouth.
The United States produces more
meat than is now used by the citizens.
The workingman has been forced to
cut down the ration to his family be-
cause of the excessive price. To rid
themselves of this enormous surplus.
the packers have built up a great
market abroad. England, Russia. ia
pan and Germany have been the larg-
est buyers. Little beef, other than
the canned variety, has been exported.
The great export business has been
in pork, bacon, hams. lard and oleo-
margarine.
OF recent years Australia has en-
tered the field as a big producer Of
sheep. In the past year Ireland raised
three times as many hogs as in any
year previous and Denmark. a third
more. Argentine and other South
American countries have become the
cattle producers. The unlimited ranges
and therefore cheap method OF feed.
ing has placed them In a position
where they have given the Chicago
packers. who practically control the
United States meat export trade. a
hard battle for supremacy.
The stock raisers and farmers will
be the real losers II slump in the
domestic market takes place. For sev.
eral years they have been enjoying
a season of unrivaled prosperity. Cat.
tie, hogs and sheep have brought
prices in the market which have made
even the most optimistic hold their
breaths. Added to this has been the
extremely liberal profit margin added
to the meat products by the packers.
The packers make no secret about
who will get the first slashing IL the
foreign trade is cut of and a slump
in the domestic trade market results.
They insist that their business Is
being conducted on a far smaller mar
gin Of profit ut present than any other
industry. II slump comes the stock
raisers and farmers must take the
brunt they assert.
