The remarkable thing about the American
livestock business is that the maximum consump-
ton is some two thousand miles away from the
center of production. Yet, through Armour
and Company, it is possible for you, no matter
where you are, to set your table as bounteously
Is if you lived alongside the farm
But also remember thisl
Armour and Company did not become of
national need for their services. a.
This need did not arise until the East was no
longer able to compete with the West in raising
livestock Then it was that the public, realizing
perishable products sold on small margin cannot
be passed long distances through many hands,
began to demand more and more of US - began
to make US strain every effort to keep pace with
their needs
But, despite our service, our economies pos
sible through volume and scientific utilization
of by-products, our perfection OF preparation
and marketing, the pay we receive for it all aver
ages less than three cents on the dollar in our
total years business. One outstanding fact must,
therefore, be obvious to every thinking man.
ANY Drs-snainencs Armour and Company

straight basis of thai highest of all ideals

father, Philip d. Armour; for, the motives of
this organization have been my LIES inspiration
and even though sometimes misunderstood,
may say with pride that they have always been
true to the best interests of the American people.

1t Is not that the facts are today any different
than they ever were. But their consideration now
has an especial tmeLness.
Statistics, particularly of the past two years,
have shown something that many have not been
prompt to comprehend basic good faith of
Armour and Company to consumers. s..
To fully realize al that this implies, you
must understand the economic conditions on
which this business IS based
The preparation of foods for human con-
sumption 10 the oldest business on earth.
AS consequence, although people do not always
appreciate it, this is the most competitive of ALL
industries.
Our function IS to collect, prepare, transport
and distribute foods more capably and at less ex-
pense than the ever-present competitor can do it.
The work of preparing food stuffs is
business of natural competition. II 0LIO0,s
has besn. IL always Wiu Be.
This competition forces two things-opera-
ton at the lowest profit, and the giving of the
utmost In service. For, ifprofts were excessive,
concerns able to operate at lower cost would
quickly capture trade. And if service were In.
adequate, those with better service would win.
Thus, the amOant Of production in field so
highly competitive, must be very significant.
When you find business in staples att
tanning size. you may be sure that in some
broad, economic Uay, IL makes for increased
efficiency and gives a Fundamental ssrDice to
consumers. In no other GOGy could it con-
finue to exist.

Sir Rabindranath has visited many

three months. He has studied US
from every angle.
This is what ne say:

YOU Americans come to India, do you
put on our dress? But we don't
laugh at YOU; we expect you to re-
main Americans in our country.

"The contrast between the Ameri-

LEONARD AND KILBANE
MAY BOX in CLEVELAND
Big Percentage Offer Made by.
Hinkel for Tilt Between
Great Champions
NEW YORK. May 2s.

Lightweight Champion Benny Leonard
and Featherweight Champion Johnny Kill
hane are going to find out which Of them
is the champion of champions. They are
going TO meet within very short time. and
the bout undoubtedly will be under the
direction of the famous Cleveland referee
and promoter. Matt Hinkel
Arrangements for the bout virtually were
agreed upon today when Jimmy Dunn,
manager Of Kilbane: Billy Gibson. manager
Of Leonard. and HinKel met here. Hinke
offered 55 per cent Of whatever passes the
turnstIles for the privilege of staging the
bout. lie is going home tonight ready to
lay the attraction in front of Cleveland and
ask for the best accommodations that can
be obtained in the sixth city. lie wants the
bout for Cleveland.
At the Manhattan Athletsc club. where
Freddie Welsh lost his title last night, II
was stated today that the fight drew
$131OO. OF this Leonard was given $4,000
and Welsh drew down approximately $4,000.
Leonard spent nearly all the day with his
mother. who was the first person away from
the Tingside to hear of his victory over
Welsh He came downtown this afternoon.
Benny doesn't bear a mark Of his battle.
Evening public ledger. [volume] (Philadelphia [Pa.]) 1914-1942, 1917-05-29

Welsh lost the championship because he
appeared too anxious to make good
showing He held Leonard too Cheaply and
tried to lead when his only chance was to
cover up. ! saw him hit Benny on the jaw
at least dozen times, thus leaving OPEN
iugs for right counters and lefts to the
body Leonard took advantage Of all of
these openings and soon had Freddy in bad
shape
II was q sad spectacle and I was almost
sick when the referee stopped the bout At
that I don't know whether Mcfarland did
the right thing or not. lie saved a beaten
man from taking more punishment, but to
my mind a championship battle over the
no-decisiou route should be won cleanly and
no room should bc left for argument
Freddy wasn't knocked out hut | know
he would have been in IA few more seconds
If he ever got away from that corner and
slipped to the floor II Is doubtful II he
could have arisen. But he WAS not on the
floor he wasn't counted out and the chances
are that the referee will be blamed for stop
ping the bout too soon.
/ am not a bloOdthrsty individual nor
do | like to see a helpless man battered
and pummeled into inseusiblity From a
humane viewpoint It was the best thing
that could have happened, but it was a
championship fight and there should be no
lOOpholc left for an excuse to belittle the
victor.
