OF MEAT
 BOUND TO RISE
 ARMOUR THINKS
Republican A. p. Leased Wirel

CHICAGO Feb 13-The future trend of meat prices can not be great ly affected by the segregation of lines or business not allied with the pack recent agreement with the attorney general, J. ogden Armour president of Armour and company, meat packers, declared in a statement tonight.
 The cost of the live meat animal is dependent largely upon the cost of corn and other feeds and labor and such factors as taxes and freight rates: MT. Armour said. These fac tors are not affected by the arrange ment brought about by the attorney general.
 Must Be General Decrease First
 If the farmers cost of production, through decrease in the price of corn or labor or other things he needs to produce cattle, the price of meat will come down; but if these costs continue tc climb they have in the last sev- eral years, there will be no reason to expect cheaper meats
 MT. Armour's statement said that the cost of the raw material represented about S5 per cent of what the packers get Tor the finished product that the meat and by-products business today was being conducted on a margin of approximately 15 per cent gross Out Of this 15 per cent, he said, was paid i3nOr ana other costs oI all distributing and selling charges and taxes, the residue representing profits. @ a, ,,-ss
 Hints Higher Meat Prices
 The packers hope that the new ar rangement will not make necessary any increase in the gross margin on which meat is handled" the statement said Ut must be evident. however, that some way must be found to make up for the loss occasioned by our getting out of the grocery business If sales organization works only part of the time-as during dull season-tfe expense Of distribution naturally is iI1- creased If the withdrawal from the grocery business makes it impossible te operate our plants or refrigerator cars at or near capacity il can not help bl.lIt increase our overhead charges and such increases must necessarily be reflected in the cost of the product we handle.
 "ReIinquishment of financial interest ri stock yards may or may not have an effect upon the price of meat. The stockyards have been operated effici- ently and the cost of the service rem dered has been remarkably low
 The statement declared that no other essential industry has perfected it's or sanization and operations to a point where it maintained itself and provided q profit at so low a gross margin. The net profits in the meat packing bus mess had represented, over a period of years only about two per cent on the volume of business transacted, 1t was declared
