No Attempt to Keep Prices High.

The charge was made in some quar-
tiers that this was an effort on the
part of the packers to get these large
quantities Of meat shipped out OF the
United States. so that they could keep
up the present high prices of their
commodities.
While he is of the opinion that the
canned meats could well be sold to

Ordinary Trade Channels Used.

In disposing of the vast surplus
quantities of munitions of all kinds
assembled by the War Department for
the use of the Army Mr.. Hare has, so
far as possible. adopted the plan of
making use of the usual channels of
trade. 1t is obviously impossible, as
he points out, for the government to
open retail stores the country over to
sell the materials which range from
shoestrings and canned meat to air.
planes, auto trucks and steam en-
gines. He has no authority of law to
attempt such thing.
So Mr.. Hare called in the packers to
discuss the best way of handling the
canned meats. The packers insisted
that the meat had been packed in
large cans and crates. much too large
for domestic trade. and sailed so heav-
lily that there would be no good mar
ket for it, If they agreed to take the
meats off the governments hands. The
suggestion was made that the meats,
which were originally prepared for
sending overseas. might we'll be used
to feed the starving poor in Europe
and the east, and that Herbert Hoover,
who is in charge Of the work Of fur
nishing rations to these starving
people. might be a purchaser Of these
meats, since he had to purchase meat
anyway,
