J. r. Morley Of OWatonna, president

Stand Local Losses.
Commissioners Murdoch.
CO. a

THE big packers can afford to
stand local losses for ten years il
necessary to put a competitor down.
Mr.. Heney replied. Because their
profits elsewhere more than take
care Of such losses"
With the intention of showing
that competition between the, big
packers virtually has been eliminat-
ed by understanding regarding all
business, three letters were intro
duced concerning proposal to go
into the FL Paso market. Arthur
Meeker, ce-president of Armour &
Co, wrote Louis f. Swift, March is,
1915, asking "how do you feel about
our going to Ell Paso?' Swift re-
piled he didn't think the FL Paso
connection was important for the
Fort Worth stockyards.
A memorandum from Charles H.
Swift &c Louis +. Swift, dated Oct.
81, 1916, gave a list of trans-ship-
ments of cattle said to have been made
by various big packers. Mr.. Heney
introduced this, he said, with the
intention of showing that there were
more cattle at these points named
than needed by the big packers ana
that the existence of other indie
pendent firms was iustifiable.
I'm trans hipping cattle, the
packers were going in the face OF
economic law and adding to the cost
to the consumer" Commissioner
Murdoch remarked.
