Religious Survey of
County to Be Made

A complete survey of Fremont
county to ascertain the existing en-
vironments of each family in relation
to all religious. social and moral agen-
be underyaken here in conformity
cies that surround them. VIII shortly
with nationwide campaign to be
launched my the Inter-Church World
Movement of North America. When
the census is completed the facts will
be collated and sent to the national
headquarters. where they will be
placed with those from every county
in the United States where Il similar
survey will be made. This data will
be studied and made available for
every religious denomination that
cares to use them.
The survey was determined upon at
the recent conference offenders of
the Inter-Church World Movement
held at YonKers. n. Y, at which Ora
Miner of Platteville. Colo. was the
official representative from this state.
Astonishing revelations of how the
140 or more Protestant evangelical
denominations of the United States
have overlooked vital religious needs
of the country came to light at the
Yonkers convention. 1t was discov-
cred that while each denomination
had been working intensively in its
own fields. because of lack of CO.
operation in methods and purposes
among them. many sections have been
wholly neglected.
When the census is finished the
facts obtained from it will be analyded
and tabulated and will then be ready
for use in evangelization work The
Inter-Church World Movement exists
for the Strengthening of every reli-
gious denomination and not for the
weakening of a single one of them Il
is hoped that the ascertained facts
from the survey will afford the basis
for local, statewide and national co.
operative efforts that will enable Pro-
testantism to see its tasks as whole
and enable it TO undertake them in
a sane and businesslike manner
Anything of so great Importance as
the Inter-Church World Movement
surely can not help but meet with the
heartiest cooperation and assistance
on the part of everybody interested
in religious enterprise and good citi
Zenship.

strike of $4,000 employees of the

OF
MEAT CONTROL
Among the Five Big Packers
Who Divide Their Meat
Fifty-Fifty.
ALSO CONTROL THE HIDES

Washington, D. c., Aug. 6.-The
Federal Trade Commission, in its
report to President Wilson on the
Packing Industry, makes these spe-
cif1c charges concerning the manner
in which the meat combination works
now"
1. That Swift & Co., Armour & Co,
Morris & Co., Wilson and Co., Inc,
and the Cudahy Packing Co, are in
an agreement for the division of live
stock purchases throughout the Uni
ted States according to certain per-
centages.
That this National livestock di-
vision is reinforced by local agree
ment among the members of the gem
eral combination operating at each
of the principle markets, as at Den
yer, where Armour and Swift di-
vide their livestock "fifty-fifty.''
That these national and local live
stock purchase agreements consti-
tute restraint of interstate COM
merce in live animals and in the sale
of meats and other animal products
ktifling competition among he five
companies, substantially controlling
the prices to be paid to livestock
producers and the prices to be charg-
ed to consumers of meat and other
animal products and giving the
members of the combination unfair
and illegal advantage over actual
and potential competitors.
2. That the five companies ex-
change confidential information
which is not made available to their
competitors and employ jointly paid
agents to secure information which
used to control and manipulate
livestock markets.
8. That the five companies act
csllusively, through, their buyers in
the purchase of livestock, their spe-
cific collusive activities embracing:
(a) Split shipnlen purchases
whereby through the interchange
of information, the split lots are
made to sell at the same price on diff
ferent markets regardless of how
many packers are involved in mar
ketingS the purchase.
