Meat Should Be
Cheaper To The
Ultimate Consumer

Mrs. Housewife, did you buy pork any
cheaper during the past week than you
have been accustomed to buy it for
the past few monthsT
II you did not, there Is profiteering
somewhere along the line between you
and the farmer who produces the pork.
In the last 10 days the price of hogs
on the hoof has dropped total OF
cents on the pound, or about one quar-
ter OF its value This drop, according
to w. NJ. Landess, Shelby county agrl-
cultural agent, should mean decided
difference In the price OF pork to the
retailer.
Beef cattle have dropped about .
cents on the pound In the past 10 days
and In the past six months about 5
cents. But 1t is doubtful, Mr., Landess
states. II beef Is any cheaper to the
housewife who buys II for her family.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 20.-Officials
of the railroad shop unions called on
Rail Director Hines today to renew
their demands for wage increase.
These unions withdrew wage de-
mands last summer when Hines, act
ing under direction of President Viii
son, granted them small increase
with the understanding that the gov
campaign to bring down liv-
ing costs would begin to show results
within ninety days. More than ninety
days have passed since that time and
railroad leaders declare living costs
have not dropped.
The demands Of the shopmen are
understood to be preliminary to a
general effort by all railroad EN-
ployes to obtain increases before the
roads go from under government con-
troll. Action by the union is being
held up until after the presidents

According to a railroad administra-
ton announcement, Hines today told

in few days to give them definite
advice on the subject Of wages and
living costs. A further conference
