The Federal Trade Commission in its recent report
profits stated that the five large meat packers have been
proteerng and that they have monopoly OF the market
These conclusions if fair and just matters of serious
not only to those engaged the meat packing bust
ness but to every other citizen of our country
The figures given profits misleading and the state
ment that the packers have monopoly unsupported by
the facts. FL
The packers mentioned the report stand ready to prove
their profits reasonable and necessary.
The meat business is one of the largest American industries
Any citizen who would famiarize himself with its details
must be prepared for large totals.
The report states that the aggregate profits of four large
packers were $1,000 for the three years.
This sum is compared with as the averge annu
profit for the three years before the war; making appear
that the profit $121OOOOO0 greater than the pre-
war profit.
This compares threeyear profit with oneyear profit
leading but the Federal Trade Commission apparently has
made mistake in the figures themselves.
The aggregate threeyear profit of $14OO0OOOO was earned
sales of four and half billion dollars It
about three cents each dollar of saeor fraction
OF cent per pound OF product.
Packers profits are negligible factor in prices of live stock
and meats No other large business is conducted upon such
small margins of profit.
Furthermore and this is very mportant-only small por
ton OF this profit has been paid in dividends The balance
has been put back into the businesses had be- you
realize when you consider the problems the packers had
to solve-and solve quickly-dwing these war years
To conduct this business in times with higher and
the necessity of paying two three times the former prices
for live stock has required the use of two or three times the
ordinary amount of working capital The additional profit

larger pOOn OF the prOtS earned has been used to finance

ments made necessary by the demands of our army
and navy and the Allies.
you business man you will appreciate the signif
of these facts you unacquanted with business
talk this matter with business
your banker sayand ask him to compare profits of the
packing industry with those of any other large industry at
the present time
No evidence offered by the Federal Trade Commission in
support OF the statement that the large packers have
monopoly The Commissions report shows the large
number and Importance of other packers.
The packers mentioned the statement stand ready to prove
to any fair minded person that they in keen competition with
each other and that they have power to manipulate
prices.
If this were not true they would dare to make this pos
tive statement.
Furthermore government figures show that the five large
packers mentioned in the report account for only about
third OF the meat business Of the country.
They wish it possible to interest you in the details of
their business OF how for instance they can sell dressed
beef for less than the cost Of the live animal owing
utilization OF byprOducs and of the wonderful story of the
methods of distribution throughout this broad land well
as in other countries.
The five packers mentioned feel justified in cooperating
with each other to the extent of together presenting this
public statement.
its time of need they have met all war time demands
promptly and completely and they are willing to trust their
case to the famndedness of the American people with the
facts before them.
