If any Of our readers know Of an
The evening leader., 1918-07-09

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
not only those engaged in the meat pack
ing business but to every other citizen OF our country
The figures given or profits are misleading and the
statement that the packers have monopoly unSup-
ported by the facts.
The packers mentioned in the report stand ready
prove their profits reasonable and necessary.
The meat business is one of the largest American in
dusries. Any citizen who would famarize himself with
its details must be prepared for large totals.
The report states that the aggregate profits of four
large packers for the three years
This sum is compared with s19OOOOOO as the average
annual profit for the three years before the war; making
appear that the war profit was $121OOOOOO greater
than the pre-war profit
This compares three-year profit with one-year
prot-a manfesty unfair method of comparisons 1t is
not only misleading, but the Federal Trade Commission
apparently has made mistake in the figures themselves
The aggregate three-year profit of S140O00OOO was
earned sales of four and half billion dollars. Tt
about three cents each dollar of sales-or
mere fraction of cent per pound of product.
Packers profits negligible factor in prices of
live stock and meats No other large business conduct
ed upon such small margins of profit.
Furthermore-and this is very mportant-ony
small portion of this profit has been paid in dividends
The balance has been put back into the businesses It had
to be- you realize when you consider the problems the
packers have had to solve-and solve quickly during
these years.
To conduct this business in war times with higher
costs and the necessity of paying two three times the
former prices for live stock has required the of two
or three times the ordinary amount of working capital
The evening leader., 1918-07-09

No evidence is offered by the Federal Trade Commits
sion in support OF the statement that the large packers
have monopoly The Commissions own report shows
the large number and Importance Of other packers
The packers mentioned in the statement stand ready
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 not dare to make
this positive statement
Furthermore, government figures show that the five
large packers mentioned in the report account for only
about onethrd of the meat business of the country
They wish it were possible to interest you in the de-
tails of their business. Of how, for instance they
sell dressed beef for less than the Of the live ANIMAL
owing to utilization of byproducs and of the wonderful
story of the methods of distribution throughout this
broad land as well as in other countries.
The five packers mentioned feel justified in co-operat-
ing with each other to the extent of together presenting
this public statement
They have been able to do big job for your govern
ment III its time Of need they have met all time de-
mands promptly and completely and they are willing to
trust their to the farmndedness of the American
people with the facts before them
The evening leader., 1918-07-09
Plain Facts About the Meat Business

The additional profit makes only fair return on this and
has been stated the larger portion Of the profits earned
has been used to finance huge stocks Of goods and to pro
vide additions and improvements made necessary by the
enormous demands of army and navy and the Allies.
The evening leader., 1918-07-09

you business nan will appreciate the sig
nfcance OF these facts Ii you with bus
mess talk this matter with business
ance-With your banker say-and ask him to compare
profits of the packing industry with those of any other
large industry at the present time.

CONSIDER LOOKS OF THINGS
Any Number of Reasons Why Every
Effort Should Be Made to Make
Home Attractive.

I'm travelling through a certain Sec
ton of Illinois the other day l noticed
that most Of the homes were cheerleS5
and desolate," Director Charles Adkins
told me the other day. 'The yards
we're full of weeds, there were no flow
ers nor vines, apd the majority of the
houses were implanted.
"Who would want to live in such a
place? What attraction is there to-
keep the boys and girls on the farm?
/ felt like asking these people why
they didn't paint up and clean up and
make their homes look like something
Soldiers are required to keep their
equipment clean and their faces shaved
because of the effect on their morale.
A clean, trim-looking soldier has more
self-respect and fights better than a
slovenly one. The man who takes
pride in the appearance of his place
Is a better farmer and a better man
en- that account. The whole family I'M
dertakes its tasks more cheerfully and
more successfully because Of it.

There was opposition only at the
outset. This was carried out by brisk
machine gun fire for from 20 to 80
minutes, when II eased off and enabled
the troops to advance without serious
fighting.
Later stiff opposition developed In

some time, but all the detectives along

Robert Cecil, assistant secretary of

that n secret undertakings or en-.

is concerned"
He admitted>that the armistice had
been signed by Great Britain on be-

Germans were losing their hold. He
declared that ~bolshevikism had been
reported in Germany, but that it was
spreading in parts of Austria.
