Competition Largely Eliminated.

Mr.. Hoover said that the hold of the
packers on the meat and many other
trades has become SO great that com
petition has been eliminated to Il
great extent, and it is practically in
conceivable that any new firms can
rise to their class, and in any event
even sharp competition between the
few can only tend TO reduce the num-
Der of the five and not Increase it.
THE worst social result of this
whole growth, of this expanding DOM

undermining of the initiative and the
equal opportunity of our people and
the tyranny which necessarily follows
in the commercial world.
Mr. Hoover declared in favor of the
railroad administration taking over
all animal and refrigeration car serv-
ices, as recommended by the federal
trade commission. He advocated thus
arrangement as permanent basis.
Whether or not the service should De

Notes Growth of Industry.

The food administrator, in his report,
entered into the history OF the growth
OF the meat packing business. Atten-
ton was called to the Capitalization of
plants because of natural expansion, the
consolidation of slaughtering in large
centers, the construction of large stor-
age houses and the purchase and upkeep
of network of refrigerator cars. so
great became the industry in the hands
OF a few packers, he points out, that a
large part of the stock yards and car
services naturally fell into the hands OF
the larger and more wealthy packers
who have used their advantages as, In
effect, a special and largely exclusive
railway privilege with which TO build up
their business"
Because of the advantages acquired
through this practical railway privilege

ries and the large banking alliances,
continues the report, this group has
found itself in position not only to
dominate the distribution of interstate
animal products, but TO invade success

CANTRILL PREDICTS
RECORD WEED PRICE

On the eve of the opening Of the
Burley tobacco market in Kentucky
Congressman J.. C. Cantrill gave out
a statement in which he says that
from every reasonable standpoint the
price of tobacco this year of the
Burley type should break all previous
records"
His statement, no doubt, will have
a tendency to "bull" the market, as he
is the best known recognized authori-
ty on Burley tobacco. ''It is well
known" he says, "that the crop Of
tobacco grown in the year 1918 was
an unusually large crop of Burley to-
bacco and yet on October 1, 1919, the
stocks in the hands of the dealers
and manufacturers were practically
the same as the average amount
during the past eight years. 1t is
also well known to every one COLI
versant with conditions in the Bur-
ley tobacco district, that the crop
grown this year is an unusually short
crop of tobacco and applying the
law of supply and demand there is
every reason to believe that there
will be an unusual demand for the
crop of tobacco which will go on to
the market very shortly and there is
every reason why, owing to the
scarcity of Burley tobacco and the
stocks in the hands of the manu-
facturers and dealers the crop which
is to be sold this winter of Burley
tobacco should bring higher price
than ever in the history of the tobac-
CO market.
