A Statler
Instance

In every Statler bedroom is
framed card on which are printed the
rates for that room. for one person
and for two.
In other words, Hotels Statier mark their
selling prices in plain figures. You know
what your bill will be; you know that you're
not being overcharged through a misunder-
standing yours or the clerks; you know
that you're paying just what every other oc-
cupant of that room pays no more, no less.
That's standard American practice in first
class retail stores; some day it will doubtless
be standard practice in the best hotels.
That framed card is a smnll detail but
it illustrates the Statler way of doing thinga-
It's one of the many concrete applications of
the Statler policy Of fairness, and full and
honest moneys worth, to every patron
whatever kind or price ofroomhe occupies.

Are the Packers .Profiteers?
Plain Facts About the Meat Business
Plain Facts About the Meat Business

The Federal Trade Commission in it's recent repor on war
prons stated that the five large packers been prof

These conclusions if fair and just are matters of serious con
not only to those engaged the meat packing business
but to every other citizen of our country
The figures given profits misleading and the statement
that the packers have monopoly unsupported by the
facts.
The packers mentioned in the report ready to prove
their profits reasonable and necessary
The meat business of the largest industries
ANY citizen who would famiarze himself with its details
must be prepared for large totals
The report that the aggregate profits four large
packers $140O00O0O for the three war years
This is compared with $19O00O00 as the average
nua profit for the three years before the making APP
pear that the profit $2OOOOOO greater than the
pre-war profit
This compares threeyear profit with profta
manesty unfair method of comparison 1t not only mis-
leading but the Federal Trade Commission apparently has
made mistake in the figures themselves.
The aggregate profit of $4000OO earned
sales of over four half billion dollars 1t means about
three cents each dollar Of saes-or mere traction OF
cent per pound of product.
Packers profits negligible factor in prices of live stock
and meats No other large business conducted upon such
small margins of profit.
Furthermore this is very importan-ony small por-
ton of this profit has paid in dividends The balance

to solve-and solve oucklv-during these war years.

OF these facts you unacquanted with business

industry with those of any other large industry the pres
ent time
support of the statement that the large packers

Der and Importance of other packers
The packers mentioned statement stand ready to prove
to fair minded person that they competition
with each other and that they power manipulate
prices.
If this they not dare to make this posi-
tive statement.
Furthermore government figures that the five large
packers mentioned in the report for only
third of the business of the country
They wish it possible to interest you the details of
their business OF how for instance they sell dressed
beef for less than the cost of the live animal owing uz

The five packers mentioned feel justified cooperating with
each other to the of together presenting this public
statement.
They have been able to do big job for your
time of need they have met all wartime demands promptly
and completely and they willing to trust their the
andedness of the American people with facts before
