trade commission with others is en-
gagged seeking TO subject the packing
industry and other lines Of business
TO the arbitrary control of subordinate
government officials through z IL
eense system.
1T is to be regretted that in these
days when the public feels keenly the
pressure OF high prices a government
body does not give out facts respect
ing prices and profits This has
never been done fairly BY the federal
trade commission as regards the pack
ing industry. although the commits
sion has constantly had the most COM
plete Information in its possession No
one disputes that out OF the total re-
ceipts Of the packers derived from the
products Of animals about s.. percent
is paid out for the live animals them
selves; about Is percent is paid out
Tor wages transportation and other
such expenses; about > percent on this
turnover is earned by the packer as
net profit, and no one disputes that
this amount is but a small fraction OF
4 cent per pound and that it is so
negligible as not in any event to af-
feet the price which the consumer
pays for meats.
