No More Beef Shipped
Abroad; Pork Is About
Finished
ALL FOR HOME
MARKET SOON

Meat prices are about to drop. and
within the next ten days the effect OF
wholesale quotations In the local mar
kets will be noticed. II became evident
yesterday when the Institute OF Amer
lean Meat Packers In a statement Issued
from their offices In Chicago announced
that the meat export Industry practical
ly has ceased.
Beef exports ceased some time ago,
according TO the statement, and the
amount OF pork being loaded for
abroad has dropped TO a negligible
amount from total annual export OF
25O0.O00 pounds. The result Will be
that the output OF the packing Indus

and foreign consumption. VIII be
thrown on the domestic market.
Chicago already has felt the effect
OF the shutting down OF the exporting
trade. II was reported yesterday. Hogs
and steers being sold there, however,
VIII not reach the eastern markets
until next week. and even after their
arrival there VIII be required a few
days during which the local market
can be adjusted TO the new situation.
The Chicago reports Indicated last
night that the downward trend Of prices
was noticeable last Saturday.
The review OF the foreign meal
situation as given out by the Big Five
shows that the United Kingdom has
about 275OOO 600 pounds OF bacon
under her control. This will last for
seven months. Her present cOnsump-
tlon Is being satisfied by supplies OF
Engl' 'sh. Irish. Danish and Canadian
bacon.
The Big Five agents In Germany
are unable 10 sell meat products there
and have been forced 10 turn 10 cold

condition exists because the German
Government Is unable 10 pay aecepi-
able currency the report states.
As for Holland, Belgium. France END
Scandinavia meat sales have about
ceased. In Holland the return to The
InEed States OF lard and boxed pork
has been recommended Money has
been lost in Belgium because Of the
small quantity the packers were able
to dispose OF. In France. active SELL
ing stopped two weeks ago, and under
the present exchange conditions the
trade will be small.

q poor market for some time. and there
is no hope Of developing a demand.
The Big Five had hoped the Allied
Council would permit Russian cooper
