document which I brought back with

GERMANY Is OUT

NEW YORK, Oct 16.-Germanv will
not be in a position for at least an
other year to compete with the United
States and the allied countries for the
worlds dye markets, according to a
copyrighted dispatch to The World
This is the view of Irving A. Keene.
Of the American Chamber Of Com

mission appointed to investigate the
German dye industry. Mr.. Keene has
returned here after a month in Ger.

He reports that German manufac-
turers need raw materials badly for
medicals, chemicals and dyes. He
says that after the German dive in
terests have sold so per cent of their
output, as in January, 1919, to the
German government for delivery to
the allies as an indemnity. there will
be hardly enough available to meet
home demands.
Mr.. Keene found several big dive
interests stiIl greatly handicapped bv
injuries done to their plants by allied
bombs. He reports that wonderful
crops have encouraged the people
greatly, but there Is still much un-
rest among the workers and pegsI-
mism among the manufacturers.

SWIFT DENIES BIG s.
HAVE DIVIDED FIELD
Packer Declares Industry Is
Put In False Light By
PrejudiCed Report.

CHICAGO. Oct. 15.-Louis F. Swift,
president OF Swift & Co., today an
swered charges made against his
company in Part OF the Federal
Trade Commission report. He said:
"The packing industry is again put
in a wrong light by the latest Install
ment of the series Of attempts on the
part OF the Federal Trade Commits
sion to scare the American people into
the belief that the large packers are
getting control Of the food supply Of
the country.
In the first place, the packers do
not control anything. Swift and
Company Is in active competition
with all other packers in the purch-
ase and sale Of every product bought
and sold. The charge that the five
packers have divided the field, each
specializing on certain lines, is alb
surd.
Handle Logical Products.
Swift and Company handle only
such products as logically result
from being in the packing business,
and such other products as can be
handled efficiently through its sales
organization and refrigerating equip
ment. The net result is the lowering
Of selling costs, more direct market
ing from producer to consumer, and
a better service to the public.
This statement we stand ready to
prove to any impartial tribunal It
is silly for the trade commission TO
say that our statement Swift & Co.
does not handle coffee, rice, or GER
eals proves that we have agreed
with other packers to divide the
Ffa1d There is no ground for the
claim that the large packers bid fair
to dominate the wholesale grocery
trade. Swift & Co.'S sales Of groc-
cry products amount to only a little
over 1 per cent Of the total whole
sale grocery business.
Figures Exaggerated.
"The five large packers together
handle not to exceed 3 per csnt. The

a truck operated by Jesse Buck, of
l245 Jackson street northeast, yester-
day afternoon, is reported to be i'm
proved at Casualty Hospital today. A
slight fever has taken effect, but II
is likely that the child will recover,
according to attending physicians. A
fracture was sustained at the base OF
the skull when the motor ran the boy
down. Buck gave himself up to the
police after the child was removed to
the hospital.
