TO Take Over Industry As Was
Done With Railroads
INVESTIGATION SHOWS
SOURCES OF BIG PROFIT
Employees Of Every Branch and
Representing Every Craft Make
Up Body and Are Prepared To
Present Case In Full ..- s..

+GHICAGO, January l7-(As-
~ sociated Press -To urge the
Immediate taking over by the gov
ernment of the great meat pack
ing and SlaughterhouSe industries
Of the country a delegation com
posed OF representatives OF every
branch and every department and
every craft OF the packing indus
try left Chicago last night for
Washington. 1t is the intention
of this delegation to secure a
hearing from the President and
present their case to him directly
but they are ready to see any
other government officials and to
lay the case before them and the
Federal Trades Board which has
already held a number of hear
ings on the packing industry and
the various other industries with
which it has become interviewer.
4 HEARINGS IN PROGRESS
Hearings before the Federal
Trades Board have brought out
testimony to show ownership of
railroad terminals in Chicago by
packing house industries. 1t has
been shown the stock yards are
owned and controlled by the same
OF similar Industries. The con-
nection between the packers and
! the hide and leather business has
also been shown as well as has
the entering of the packers into
retail business and its effect upon
the retail prices paid by the con-
sumner.
Following the hearings, which
have not yet been declared closed
by the Federal Trades Board,
there have been voiced from all
parts of the country through the
public press demands for a tax
ing over OF the great packing
houses by the government in
much the SAME manner as the
railroads were taken over.
EFFECTIVE ARGUMENT
The demands which will be
voiced by the employees OF the
meat supply industry will per
haps be the strongest argument
yet presented for this drastic step
The testimony adduced before the
board has shown how the pack
crs secured profits from each
branch Of the industry, from the
railroad terminals, the StockyardS,
the packing houses, the by-prod-
ducts and from the hides and has
enabled comparisons Of prices
paid for stock aud Of the various
prices secured by the packers,
with a profit exacted from each
industry in which their business
entered, Now will be told the
conditions under which the en-
ployes labor, wages paid and an
other commentary can be made.
Some government officials have de
MED any 5intentions on the part Of the
government to take over the industry
while others have been rcticeut and
the Recommendation of the trnde
board have not yet been presented.
