sumption. He also aaid hr hho
visited Chicago banasrs and adj
yissd them 10 help get II out by
calling all loans ON this poultry.
Dealers called Priebe's attention 10
the shortage Of the isi7ls crop and
the desirsibiiity Of holding the 1857
pack for the regular trade.
But Priebc went 10 Washington
and Issued an order that all turkeys
must b~ out Of storage by January ].
This waH followed by an order that
all the other poultry Of the lsisl7
pack must he out by March !. 1918.
This was in September.
At that time Priebe A Co. were sold
out. and Swift A co. had reduced
their holdings from ie.000.00o "a
3 800 900 pounds.
Poultry dealers came 20 Washing.
ton early this year and pleaded for
an extension Of time. but Priebe stood
pat In the meantime the bulk OF
! the storing OF the islT-is crop had
been done. and Swift \ Co. Priebe A
Co. the other packers and their
friends had bought up all the poultry
they could get: and NOW TIKI
PACKERS OWN 30 PER CENT or
THE POULTRY IN STORAGE.
Had Information
Neumnn said that priebe was the
only man in the country who could
know just what pack OF poultry each
operator had In storage: that while
tho bureau ~ markets issues n state
ment twice a month showing how
much frozen poultry IL in storage. u
doesn't say what pack. But each
storcr has TO notify the food admin
is;rauon. not only the amount he
holds. but Of what years crop.
Priebc also issued regulations tina,
storage houses could not loan more
than 20 per cent 81 the value o,
/ poultry. butter or eggs TO the storer
whereas. before they could loan "a
per cent. and often loaned as high az
ss and 100. This regulation didn',
affect the packers. as they own their
own cold storage. and hence are no,
public warehouses.
Editor Seuman said this handling

In this belief he honest and sincere He frankly
voiced such sentiments in private conversation and IN

nothing hypocritica double-faced in his attitude.
This spirit of the almighty dollar which began to be
prevalent in this country in recent simply came
to focus in Henry Hewitt natural-born trader and

zeal and full fruition.

We desire. however. to point out that April Of
last year the United States adopted which is
carrying forever away further and further from the
viewpoint and ideals of Henry Hewitt. Money is not
god. and Americans all coming to that is only
useful tool of This country is engaged in the most
coossay unsefish task that human history records and
no longer has heart for the piling up OF gold.
Henry Hewitt Is bound TO stand out a big figure in
the annals Of the Northwest but his philosophy would be
strangely out Of place in the entering
