PLAN TO BOYCOTT
KOSHER PROFITEERS
establishment of co-operatiye
Stores Proposed--Butohers
Predict Price Decrease

PIhns for general boycott of kosher
butchers who charge exorbitant prices
Tor meat were discussed last night st a
meeting OF representatives of the United
7chrcw Trades. 240 Pine street Among
other things suggested was the estab.
IShmont Of 90. operative butcher sbops
with shares being held by the working
people
several speakers declared that the cost
OF meat to the kosher butchers ranged
from fifteen to seventeen cents per pound
and that this was sold at thirty two and
forty five ce1ts pound.
Butchers predict big reduction In
the price Of meat. Among others hold
ing this Wow is Jesse " Dietz. head
OF the meat department of the Amer
lean Stores Company. The fact that
America can consume all the available
supply and the expense and difficulties
OF transporting frozen meats overseas
are the factors which will tend to keep
plentiful supply of it in this country,
Mr.. Dietz says.
II think that before long we NAV
look for substantial drop in the price
Of beef and mutton" hr said. There
are just as many cattle aud sheep in
the country as there ever were. Very
little frozen meat is being shipped to
Europe from the United States. It
costs about three cents a pound to send
/ it across, and when II gets on the
other side there are no refrigeration
facilities beyond the coast. South
America and Australia can take care
of the European market.
Pork. however" he continued. will
stay up in price. United States is the
only large pork producing country in
the world and we must feed the world
with pork. Pork is salted down, packed
in boxes and can he shipped overseas in
the hold Of an ordinary vessel. 1t costs
about half as much to send it across as
II does 70 send frozen meat. There is a
real market for it in Europe, and the
demand over there is likely to. continue
for long time. We cannot look for
any reduction in pork or lard for an
indefinite period. -
