 Paris, January 25.-France now is faced with a commercial struggle with Ger many, Edward N. Hurley, chairman of the United States shipping board, de- clared at a Franco-American dinner to- night, and must prepare to meet German competition which will be organized with the energies formerly devoted to making war. The end of the war, MT. Hurley declared, cannot be considered as hay ing come until France is entirely re- habilitated commercially.
 For % years, MT. Hurley said. Germany had devoted 50 per cent of her efforts to- wards commercial lines and the re- IT. ainder to building up her great military machine. As no such machine will be permitted in the future, he added, 1t will really be devoted to commerce Say what you will about her method, he declared, she has demonstrated her efficiency in commerce and with her whole effort devoted in the future to trade, the other nations of the world always will have formidable competi- tor, no matter what restrictions it be- comes advisable to put in her path. To solve this problem France must organize, as she cannot meet it by relying on iso- lated individual efforts ... French products, MT. Hurley proposed, should be protected with made in France trademark vigorously protected against infringement. Shipping. he said, must be furnished at fair and equal rates in order to give all nations an equal footing in manufacturing and selling genius The American shipping boards he hoped, would be of assistance to France by furnishing ships to increase the French merchant marina.
 "The commerce and authority of France" MT. Hurley concluded, "are now free to make her greater nation than she ever was before. You will, with your energy and skill place her in the position in which the world wants her to be-one of the leading nations of com merce and industry. If the people Of France will enthusiastically support their commercial and industrial leaders as they supported their gallant army, l have no doubt that her devastated regions will | be quickly rehabilitated and her trade and commerce restored as important fac tors throughout the world. Your com n.ercial future and supremacy are before you''

MEAT MONOPOLY 1 IS BEST FOR ALL,
 | SUGGESTS ARMOUR
Says Plan Would Save Mill lions, Increasing Profit of Producer and Lowering
 Cost to Consumer
By Associated Press

Washington. January 2S.-J
 Ogden Armour today suggested
 monopoly, under government su-
 pervision, of the entire meat i'm
 duStry of the country as the best
 for producer and consumer.
 Testifying before the Senate agri- culture committee, he declared by this plan millions of dollars could be saved, which would help increase the profits of producers of livestock and at the same time cut down the cost of meat to consumers.
 The necessity of close government supervision was emphasized, however. by MT. Armour in connection with the proposal.
 such a concern must be regulated by the government" he told the conl- mittee, because few men with such power would use 1t properly"
 There was no discussion of MT. Ar mour's plan, which he proposed dur ing cross-ex examination by Francis J. Heney, who conducted the federal trade commissions packing house n- quiry.
 The questioning then touched upon the alleged existence of a communion among the leading packers, which Mir. Armour denied.
 RAISE GENERAL FUND
 Mir, Armour explained that the pack CTS contributed to q general fund, sue h as might be used in joint legislative action, and said he believed this was a common practice among industries.
 Payments were made on a percent age basis, which followed, he added. the basis adopted during pool by these concerns many years ago ito prevent an over supplied market"
 Each of the companies, he testified, now tried to maintain about the same share of business as at that time, but he denied that there was any actual agreement to that effect.
 Don't you think that there is a de- cided tendency" Mir. Heney asked, toward eventual growth of only three big packing companies -- Armour &s Co. Swift X Co. and Morris & Co.
 i've heard some such statement be- fore" Mir. Armour replied.
 Mir. Heney contended the country will benefit if the business were con- ducted by more small packing houses, widely distributed
 MT. Armour contended that the pack CTS acquired no advantage from their relationship with banks and railroads He gave the committee a full list of all banks and railroads of which he is director and smaller companies in which he holds stock. Mir. Armour will continue his testi- mony Monday and probably will be followed by his counsel. Levy Mayer who will discuss the validity of the Kendrick bill to regulate the meat ln- dustry
