WEEKLY REPORT OF
TOBACCO CROP

"The weather has continued dry
the past week and deliveries have
been light to the factories and sales
places until the evening of the 18th
when we had light season and it is
understood that quite good deal of
tobacco was taken down and gotten
ready for delivery. But, the season
is not good one, and unless we have
more moisture and continued warm
weather, we do not look for heavy
deliveries at present.
1.-The market continues very firm
on all grades and the tendency is
toward higher prices. A number Of
the large buying interests re-entered
the market this week, and a good
deal of tobacco has been sold at the
barn doors at prices fully as high as
they have been at any time and in
some localities where the crop Of to-
bacco is good, there has been mark
ed advance. In Galloway county
high as 80 cents for the leaf and IL
cents for the Tugs, crop around, and
prices generally run from 90 to 30
cents for the leaf and 8 to IL cents
for the Tugs In other sections where
tobacco is not so good prices are firm
but no higher.
1--WE estimate that fully 80 percent
Of the crop has been sold and with a
continuation Of the buying the Wes-
tern District crop will be sold in a
couple more weeks. Never before in
the history of the market has crop
sold as quickly and at such high pri-
ces. The large buying interests have
shown an eagerness to buy from the
opening of the market, most of them
continuing in the market throughout
the season, while others dropped out
temporarily, but soon re-entered.
Farmers are taking advantage of
the good weather conditions prepar-
ing for the 1919 planting. They
have finished burning and planting
their plant lands and have otherwise
advanced their work so as to be
ready for an extra large planting
this year"

j. B. ATKINS DEAD
AT RIPE OLD AGE

j. B. Atkins, aged 81 years, passed
away at his home near Puryeaf at
one o'clock Wednesday afternoon,
from infirmities incident to old age.
The funeral was held at the residence
Wednesday afternoon, with services
by Rev. Edgar Underwood, the burial
taking place at the Bradley grave
yard.
The following obituary it written
by friend:
]. B. Atkins, Familiarity known as
Uncle Jack, departed this life Feb.
10, 1919. Uncle Jack was in the 81
year of his age, and had lived in the
Puryear vicinity all of his life. $ He
was one of the Civil War veterans.
His first marriage was to Miss Elvira
Smotherton, to this union two chill
dren were born, Mrs. Mandy Neal,
and c. W. Atkins. His second mar
~'age was to Miss Ponela Bridges,
now deceased, and to them was born
Luther, Robert, John, George, Jennie
and Matte. Mrs. Neal and Luther
preceded their father to the grave by
several wears, the other named chill
dren, togethr with a large acquaint-
ance, and many friends are left to
mourn his loss as an affectionate faith
er and as friend to all who knew
him. The writer has had lifetime
acquaintance with Uncle Jack ane
can truly say that | never heard ;
criticism passed that reflected in tn,
The Parisian. (Paris, Tenn.) 1907-1962, 1919-02-21

there is no reason for the govern
ment to take over the branch houses
of the packers, but do not feel that
sufficient consideration has been CIV
en- to the question of handling other
products than meats Swift & Co.,
handles only few such products,
and they are distinctly related to
our business, either as by-products
of the packing houses, or as goods
which can be economically handled
through our extensive distributing
organization.
/ hardly think that the government
should assume authority to dictate
what products any business concern
may or may not handle. There is
not only no need for such step in
connection with the packing business
but it would act as a dangerous pre-
scedent which might be extended to
all other industries.
It is a little difficult for me to rec
oncile Mr.. Hoover's criticism of the
fact that the large packers have ell
minated middlemen and gone direct
to the retailers with the general opin-
ion that marketing should be as di-
rect as possible from producer to
consumer. ! think it will be conce-
ded that if we have eliminated I'M
necessary middlemen this has been
to the advantage of the public at
large.
Since there Is no monopoly, the
facts do not justify the statement
that as time goes on this efficiency
cannot fail to diminish, and, like all
monopolies, begin to defend itself by
repression rather than efficiency AS
long as the large packers have to use
their utmost efforts in competition
with leach other and with hundreds
of smaller concerns to earn their
profits Of only two and three cents
on each dollar of sales, there is no
room for falling off in efficiency.
However, / welcome such sincere
and disinterested views as those ex-
pressed by Mr.. Hoover. The public
and our legislators need to under
stand our business much more thor
oughly than they do now, before they
are in position to undertake re-
strictive regulations. Swift & Co.,
have voluntarily appeared before
congressional committees to give
such information as is desired. We
have nothing to conceal. All we want
is an opportunity to get the facts
before the public, and when this has
been accomplished, we shall rely on
the sense Of fair play Of the Ameri-
can people, and shall abide by their
verdict" d

LETTER OF MUCH
INTEREST FROM
PACKER SWIFT
!. Sets Awry Theory That Packers Are
In Combine; Fair and Open
Competition in Industry.
~ -----
PACKERS HAVE NOTHING
Appreciates Opportunity to Get Facts
Before The Public; Rely On
Sense of Fair Play.

Mr.. L. F, Swift, president Of Swift
& Company, made the following
comments Wednesday with regard to
Mr.. Hoover's letter to the President
on the packing industry.
Il am naturally greatly interest
ed in Mr.. Hoover's letter to the Pres
ident, which was written last Septem-
Der, and welcome it as an honest ex-
preston of opinion about the pack
ing house situation am only sorry
that Mr.. Hoover had not the oppor-
tunity to avail himself Of the infor-
nation brought out at the recent
congressional hearing In Washington.
The principal issue seems to be
whether or not there is monopoly
and / believe it was clearly demon
strated at these hearings that the
large packers are in active compe-
tition with each other. There are alb
solutely no agreements among the
five largest packers to control prices,
and they together handle less than
forty percent of the meat supply of
the country. The largest company
handles only about twelve percent
Of the total meat supply and less
than twenty-five percent Of even the
output Of houses that are under U. s.
inspection.
There are about two hundred and
seventy packing concerns besides
those operated by the Ave largest,
that are under Federal inspection,
and hundreds of local houses that are
not subject to inspection. All large
cities have packing houses that COM
pete directly with the five largest

have publicly stated that we have
no serious objection to being reliev-
ed Of our interest in refrigerator

pointed out that it is decidedly ques-
tionable whether an efficiency or
benefit can be gained by such proce-
dure. We would also call attention
to the fact that during the recent
hearings, no evils, needing correc-
ton have been brought to light in
connection with packer ownership

PETITION COURT
TO REMIT FINES
Chambersburg Federation of
Labor Says Strikers in
Jail Are Destitute

ChambersburS, Pa, Nov. 5.-The
local Federation of Labor, w. ].
Gettel. secretary, is circulating copies
of petition addressed to Judge Gil
Ian asking him to remit the fines
and costs imposed on the 5S Waynes-
boro strikers who are now serving
3O-day sentences in Jail. Each de-
fendant who was found guilty was
also sentenced to $25 fine and costs.
The costs in the aggregate amount
to $2,424.24.
The petition points out two rea-
sons for asking the county to bear
the costs. rather than have the pris-
oners serve an extra 80 days in Jail
for failure to pay their fines and
costs. The first is that in most cases
the men are destitute and do not
have the money to pay and will.
therefore, have to serve 90 days
more. The circular refers to the
fact that the county pays the sheriff
40 cents day for keeping pris-
oners, and If the So men are kept
go days it means a bill of $2.0SS
| nxtra.
The other reason is that the men
are being punished now, but if they
are kept in Jail ninety days their
| families will be severely punished.
Already the families of several OF
the men are suffering, being without
| funds.

Service Men of West
Shore May Form Post

Returned service men from several
West Shore towns are discussing the
Feasibility of a West Shore post of
the American Legion. The move has
not been widely circulated, but has
been talked of by some of the more
active service men who feel the need
OF post along the West Shore.
An organization of this kind would
mean a post with a membership of
more than 500 men which would be
the means of keeping a large body
of service men together. With small
posts in each of the West Shore
towns, advocates of the West Shore
post believe less work could be ac-
complished. The largest post in any
of the towns would not have a men,
bership of more than 100 men.
Advocates of the move feel that
the West Shore Firemen's Union
was so successful in improving the
West Shore along municipal lines
and are urged to encourage an or
ganization which will be even
greater and stronger than the union
and could work in conjunction with
all boroughs for the advancement
and improvement of the West Shore
at large.
Up to this time, the New Cum
berland post is the only one organ
lied.
