Meat Must Be Sold
Fresh meat is perishable. 1t
must be sold within about two
weeks for whatever it will bring.
A certain amount Of beef is
frozen for foreign shipment, but
domestic markets demand fresh,
chilled, unfrozen beef
Swift & Company cannot in
crease prices by Withholding meat,
because it will not keep fresh and
salable for more than a few days
after it reaches the market
Swift & Company cannot tell
at the time of purchasing cattle,
what price fresh meat will bring
when put on SALE If between
purchase and sale, market Condi-
tons change the price Of meat
must also change.
The Food Administration limits our
profit to 9 per cent on capital invested
in the meat departments This is about
2 cents per dollar of sales No profit
is guaranteed, and the risk Of loss is not
eliminated.

Accuser Charged With Being In

amounted to charges that Gutgon Borglum,
the sculptor, sought to Use for personal gain
the commission gwen him in January by
President Wilson to inquire into the air
craft program, were laid before the SEN
ate yesterday by Senator Thomas of
Colorado.
Documents were presented and read
into the record which were intended TO
show What MIR Borglum, while engaged on
the inquiry lntrusted to HIM, was dealing
with a manufacturing concern with the
purpose of forming an aircraft production
company that would receive assistance in
getting contracts through MIR Borg
lums reputed standing with the White
House.
The documents, which included sworn
statements, letters, and kilograms, comes
from the files of the Army Intelligence
Office.
In an interview last night with Gutzon
Borglum in New York, the sculptor re-
ferring to the Washington charges said
This scurrilous fraIne-up, which
charge il to be, has been in the hands
of the government for months, and is now
sprung when it has finally become evident
that shall insist and persist until the air.
plane failure is honestly and thoroughly
investigated.
