SWIFT DENIES PROFITS CHARGE
TeIesraphs Wilson and Trades Com
mission Figures Were Unfair.


Chicago, July 2-Louis F. Swift, pre-
ident Of Swift & Co., today telegraphed
a formal protest to the federal trade
commission on the report made public
Saturday regarding the profits OF
Swift &, Co. kilograms of similar i'm
port were also sent to President Wilson.
The protest follows:
Swift & Co. protests against GER
tain unwarranted statements In the
report issued by the federal trade COM
mission on war profits in that they give
the public false impression regarding
the profits and the conduct OF the
packing business.
Swift &. Co. can justify It's pronts
as not only reasonable, but necessary
for efficient conduct Of the business, to
finance large inventories at high prices
and to expand facilities at increasing
costs.
The report states that the five large
packers have a monopoly OF the meat
industry and manipulate the market
without regard to law. This is serious
charge, unsupported by facts Swift q
Co. is in competition with all other
packers, has no control over prices, and
the policy Of the company Is to obey
the law.
PACKERS profits are unjustly ex-
aggerated by the statement that four
large packers made a profit of $140, 900
900 during the three war years as
against an average annual profit OF
s19, 0O0,O for the three years before
the war.
This compares a three-year profit
ND tho 41Q 0(lO-
900 should have been s57,000,000 to
make the comparison just.
1T would be fair to the industry If
the report stated that this $14O0O0,O 900
profit of four large packers was earned
on sales of nearly $4,000, 100000 and
amounted to only about 3 cents on
every dollar Of sales.
This profit amounts to only
| frocton Of a cent a pound on the pro-
duct sold In view of these facts the
packers cannot be justly accused or
| having preyed upon the public uncon-
scionably.
THE trade commissions report, as a
matter of fairness, should have ex-
planned this and that it covered trans
| actions prior to establishment of con-
| troll by the food administration in
| November, 1917. Since that time our
profit has been limited to per cent on
capital employed in the meat business,
| equal to about cents on each dollar
Of sales.
THE impression has gone broadcast
! that license control has been fouted
by the packers. Swift & Go. has at all
times endeavored to nve up to the reg
ulations Of the food administration
| both as regards to handling and
marketing the food products and also
| as to profits"

COMMISSION HOUSE PURCHASING
SENDS PRICES UPWARD
AFTER EARLY DECLINE.
DOWNTURN DUE TO
LIBERAL RECEIPTS
Oats Tend to Reflect Action Of Corn,
But Selling Is Only of Scattered
Character - Provisions Average
Somewhat Higher Owing to Light
ness of Offerings.

Chicago. July 2. Liberal receipts
and favorable weather gave an advan-
tage today to the bears in corn. On
the resulting decline in values, how
ever commission house buying in
creased and the market rallied. Trade
for the most part was local. OpeninS
prices, which ranged from Is cent to
q cent net lower with July at s1.47@
1.47as and September at $3.50 u, were
followed by moderate further setbacks
ana then by a decided upturn.
Later announcement that consump-
ton of wheat in Canada would be re-
duced July Is, and the use Of corn
largely increased, had a notably bull
ish influence. The close was at SLABS
41.491s for July. at s1!52A 61.57B for
September, a net gain OF ~ o. cents.
Oats.
Oats reflected the action OF corn. Sell
ing tho was only of a scattered sort.
After opening 4 cent to Is cent down,
with August at 67&@67A, the market
assembled to slightly above yesterdays
finish.
Provisions.
Lightness of offerings made provi-
sions average little higher.

little increase in consignment notices
from Iowa. The principal bullish in
fluences were the announcement by the
Canadian government that after July

Oats-Large sales of cash oats in
the last two days to go to Georgia.
Bay ports, the strength in corn and
late bids from the seaboard were the
chief factors in a higher oats market.
The buying was general, while most

While combined hog receipts at the
eleven markets Monday were 5000
smaller than a week ago, the seven
leading western markets received prac-
tically the same number as previous
Monday, the decrease being at points
east Of Chicago.
Chcagos total Monday was 11,1OC

larger than a year ago. The four Mis-

less than a week ago and 800 more

hard to sell at reduced prices.
Buyers undoubtedly were rather
keen for the good to choice kinds be-
cause Of the holiday later in the week
and they are taking no chances OF get

not very active especially when light
as buyers expect liberal marketing OF
such lots for the next few weeks and
see no need for exerting themselves.
Monday receipts were fully as large
as expected at $4,000, standing over 5000
larger than the previous Monday and
over 1000 short Of year ago. but
more than twice as large as two
years ago.
Six outside western markets, with
5000, had around 5000 more than

Bladder troubles you.

When you wake up with backache

become sort of paralyZed and loSgy-
When your kidneys get sluggish and
clog you must relieve them, like you
relieve your bowels; removing all the
bodys urinous waste, else you have
backache. sick heada che, dizzy spells;
your stomach sours, tongue is coated,
and when the weather is bad you have
rheumatic twinges. The urine is
cloudy, full of sediment. channels
often get sore, water scalds and you
are obliged seek relief two or three
times during the night.
Either consult a good, reliable physi-
clan at once or get from your pharma-
cist about four ounces of Jad Salts;
take a tablespoonful in n glass of
water before breakfast for a few days
and your kidneys will then act fine.
