SMALL CHANCE FOR DROP
IN PRICES, SAYS ARMOUR
Segregation of Packers Industries la
Likely to Have Small Effect
on Cost of Meat

Chicago, Feb. 1.-THE future trend
of meat prices cannot be greatly af-
fected by the segregation of lines Of
business not allied with the packing In.
dustry, In conformity with the recent
agreement with the attorney general.
]. Ogden Armour president of Ar
mour 4 Co, meat packers, declared
In statement last night.
",rhe cost of the live meat animals
is dependent largely ON the cost OF
corn and other feeds and labor and
such factors as taxes and freight
rates. Mr.. Armour said. "These fac.
tors are not affected by the arrange.
msnt brought about by the attorney
general.
If the farmers cost of production
drops 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 II these
costs continue to climb as they have
In the last several years. there viii
be no reason to expect cheaper meat"
Mr.. Armours statement said that the
cost of the raw material represented
about SO per cent of what the packers
get for the finished product, that the
meat and byproduet business TODAY
was being conducted on a margin Of
approximately Is per cent gross. Ont
of this 10 per cent, he said, was paid
labor and other costs of manufacture,
