on pig iron would come reductions in
finished materials.
1T does not seem TO me-" Mr.. Smart
said that the most important question
Is as 10 the extent of the decline in
prices but as TO the ability TO carry on
business at a reasonable profit with a
lower level of prices. The lowering of
costs will of course involve the read
Justment of wages. and this is already
going on in a quiet way.
Assuming then that there will be a
reduction in wages and other costs, we
need have little fear OF reduction IN
prices. even though II is estimated that
the slump in corn. wheat. potatoes and
cotton, measured in values OF the total
crop, amounts to more than Ave billion
dollars. This OF course means a tre-
mendous decrease in the buying power
OF millions OF families, and the enforced
economy OF farmers Is bound to be one
OF the influences which will bring down
the price OF iron and steel products"
TX the railroads should be unable to
buy, Mr.. Smart predicted the conse-
quences would be serious, as they con-
sumo about 80 per cent OF the steel
industry's output. THE automobile in
dustry." he said, gets more attention
than 1t deserves, because 1t does not
consume more than 10 per cent. And
no matter what readjustment may be
coming, there Is no cause for fear OF a
panic. There Is the Federal Reserve
system, and there is the positive con-
viction that when prices do descend to
what In the opinion of the average
buyer Is a reasonable level buying will
be resumed and will continue very &C
lively"

ARMOURS INDICTED
FOR LAMB PROFITS
1877 Counts Charge Violation
of Lever Act on New Zea-
land Meat.
TWO n. Y. MEN NAMED
Allegations Say Sales Should
Have Been Made Below 10 !.
Cents a Pound.
TWO n. Y. MEN NAMED

Indictments charging profiteering and
violation OF the Lever Act on 1877 counts
were returned yesterday by the Federal
Grand Jury against Armour & Co.. J.
Ogden Armour. president OF the COM
pany, three other officers and two EN-
ployees. The indictments resulted from
a secret Investigation made by Lester S.
Kafer. Assistant United States Attor-
ney. The counts allege that New Yea
land lamb that should have been sold
FOR 1916 cents a. pound was sold for
from "a to S5 cents a pound.
Each of the counts in the indictment
describes sales of lamb in Manhattan
and the Bronx during April. May and
June at prices which. the indictment
says. were unlawful and unreasonable
Although no mention is made Of It in
the indictment, IL is said that some of
the lamb. which was brought here from
New Zealand in refrigerator vessels
was sold at a still higher price as fresh
native lamb.
Aside from Mr.. Armour the individ-
uais named in the indictment are s. Ed
son White. vice-president; Herbert A.
Phillips, manager Of the dressed sheep
department in Chicago; Arthur H. Van
Pelt. district superintendent of the com
pany in this city; Charles A. Meyer, an
assistant in Mr.. Whites office, and
William A. Neesch. an employee Of the
company in this city.
The first count charges that on or
about June ! 1853 pounds of the lamb
was sold to Z. Lowenthal at "a cents a
pound. which yielded the company 5.54
cents a pound profit beyond the 1916
cents which rightfully should have been
charged. In the eightieth count a sale
of seventy-f1ve pounds of lamb to Joe
Wyland on April "a is described On
za1a fha tor oh no
company realized profit at the rate Of
1864 a hundred pounds.
Summarized, the indictments allege
that the shipment of lamb to Armour *
Co. petted them a profit of 1851 a hun
dred pounds, for the eight weeks 1t took
to dispose of the meat
CHICAGO, Oct. 2t.--Declaring that
with our lamb business as a whole
showing a loss. 1t seems a rather bitter
joke to indict us for making too much
money" officials Of Armour & Co. to-
day issued a statement commenting on
the Federal indictments returned in
New York to-day, charging profiteering.
The statement follows:
1--WE are at a loss to understand
these New York indictments. The rea-
condolences of profits cannot be judged
by consideration Of few transactions
We made some money through the sale
of New Zealand lambs, but we did not
make enough on them to offset the
losses we sustained in the sale OF do
nestle lambs. and with our lamb bust
ness az n whole showing loss 1t seems
a rather bitter joke to indict us for
making too much money. The net result
Of the New Zealand lamb business was
to give consumers meat for less money
than they would otherwise have had to
pay"
