more than delighted with the
splendid showing made by that

enough money left to pay the
stockholders a dividend of so per

Can Use Horse Meat,

Horse meat for human food has been
approved by Congress in order to increase
the meat supply in large cities of the
United States, and the Department of
Agriculture has been authorized to in
spect horse meat and meat products.
The sum of $l00, 900 was authorized last
month to carry on the work of inspection
for the fiscal year ending June 80, 1920.
According to those familiar with the
meat packing industry in the United
States, there is little reason why horse
meat should not appear on the table of
the average American home; little rea-
son, that is. except the question of senti-
ment that the packers are now making
any great preparations to put horse meat
on the American market at present, all
though there are reasons why horse meat
should become staple food.

A few months before'the European
war began there were six corpora
tions in New York whose outputs
were. in three principal features,
similar. These corporations found
themselves perilously near serious
trouble. and one or two of them
were confronted with the probability
that 1t would be necessary to seek
the protection of the courts. or. in
other words. go into voluntary
Many times suggestion
was made to them that they would
gain strength and find firm foot

instead of continuing a like bysi-
ness as six independent concerns. be
There appeared to be
nothing in the law to prevent a con.
solidation of this kind. Neverthe.
less. it was not possible to secure an
agreement and the plan was aban-
doned.
Within a few months after the
European war began there came
from the nations across the sea i'm
perative demand for the commodi-
ties these companies manufactured.
Short OF capital as they were. they
were able, by reason of these de-
mands. to finance their needs. Art
er our own government went into
the war their output was increased
and their pr0Hts were far beyond
any that the MANAGERS Of the cor
porations ever deemed to be pos
sible.
The European war saved these COM
panies from bankruptcy, or at least
the necessity Of drastic reorsaniza-
tion. Today they are very strong.
but they have learned a lesson from
experience. The cNig"ncies Of the
war permitted certain agreements in
all Industries which were in the ma
ture Of combinations FOR the control
OF trade.
Thereby a lesson was taught. Al
ready some of the larger corporations
have established Il policy Of that Kind.
In times OF panic the United states
steel Corporation and the standard
oil companies were undismaycd.
They were able to turn io their sur
plus account and not only in that WAY
provide themselves with the means
whereby they could be carried over
the period Of panic and depress ioa.
hat they were also able to lend funds
to others who stood in need Of assist
ancc.

he six corporations above referred to
