Increase is Attributed TO the High

Shows a Decrease.
MORE MEN GIVEN EMPLOYMENT
Althought 400 More. Men Are AZ

Lees that the fetal for Year
Ago In the Housss.

South Omaha packing houses took in
mere than ss.ooeOcO over ana above the
receipts Of a year ago. In 1913
ths total receipts Of the packers here
amounted to s1O60Oo0OO. Approximately
speaking. the receipts for this year win
run TO Sis. 100000. of which amount $1,000
900 is apportioned to the independent
packers in South Omaha. The packers
do not make public their-~individual re-
ceipts. but they are computed as a total,
and the average amount of business done
by each house may be apportioned ac-
cording to the size OF it's force and the
purchase of live stock for killing pur-
poses.
The increase I'm the money receipts is
attributed to the high prices paid for
cattle and stock on the hoof. There is
a shortage of cattle and the packers say
they pay high prices for their stuff.
stilI an ssOOO,O0o increase over last year
in the face OF Industrial depression.
The figures given out by the four large
packing houses show that there are more
men working for them here than were
employed a year ago. Last year the pay
roll contained the names OF 7,1s7 men, and
the aggregate amount paid them
amounted to s5.57o.s7O. This year the total
number OF men employed is reported to
be 1878, almost 200 more than year ago,
and yet there are more unemployed men
in South Omaha than year ago. The
