"PooR PACKERS" EDITORIAL .


To The News Scimitar:
The News Scimitar Of July 20 had an
editorial entitled THE Poor Packers "
In which II refers to the fact that the
packers have filed a claim for six mil
lion dollars, which represents losses on
meat orders that were Cancelled by the
war department after the signing of
II this represents the profit that the
packers expected to make in one month,
there must be some justification for
the activity OF the attorney general in
proceeding against the packing indus
try
We are sorry that you saw 1T to
comment on such a serious matter
without going into 1t thoroughly and
getting all the facts. We are often
put In an entirely wrong light because
OF msinterpretation of our actions.
The truth Is that Swift & Co.,
into a contract with the war depart
ment two days before the signing of
the armlstice, In which, al the request
OF the government. we agreed to fur
nish army bacon to the limit of our
capacity. during the months OF Jan
uary February and March. 1919
This bacon, as packed under gov
eminent specification, is quite different
from the commercial product, and the
additional expense OF packing in tins
alone amounts to approximately cents
per pound. During January and Febru-
airy limited amount OF bacon was fur
nished on shipping orders received from
the government, and we were notified
during the latter part OF January to
discontinue putting further amounts
into cure for government orders, with
the assurance that the government
would take all we had in process of
cure at the time OF notification Since
II takes several weeks to cure and pre-
pare this bacon, our contracts could not
be completed until the end Of March.
We had several Cfour) million pounds
remaining after the receipt OF the last
shipping order from the war depart
ment in February. and this was held
In anticipation Of further orders as
promised by the government until about
April Is. then we were notified that
the government would not take the re-
mainder OF the bacon we had specially
prepared for It., and advised US TO sell
1t elsewhere. At this same time the
surplus supplies of army bacon were
being sold on the market at greatly
reduced prices A drop also occurred
in untinned bacon at this time. II is
obvious that this failure OF the govern
ment to carry out its contracts caused
swift & Co. very serious losses.
Consider also that prices paid to us had
been set by the government for over
q year and that our profits had been
limited by the food administration to a
prewar basis also that we had saCri-
feed in every possible way to do a
successful war job, and you can better
appreciate the Justice Of our action in
asking to be reimbursed for actual
losses due 10 government action
We feel sure you viii want to give
your readers the benefits OF the facts
in this statement. Very truly yours,

seems necessary to remark that the
new course that the prime minister Is
about to start upon seems destined to
make trouble rather than relieve 1t
II seemed likely, week or 50 ago
that Lloyd George was about to under
take a policy Of another sort, Taking
his cue from the attitude OF British
labor, and from an olive branch or two
hesltatingly offered by Irish patriots,
he was on the point OF opening con-
yersations with the Sim Feiners re-
garding the withdrawal OF the present
home rule bill and the establishment
OF some Kind OF dominion government
under which Ireland might be as free
as Canada Something has happened
to change his mind,
As the one man in all the world
chiefly Interested in the preservation
OF law and order in the British empire.
Lloyd George has n good deal Of ground
for proposing to stop the reign Of terror
and civil war now raging in Ireland by
the application OF the strictest meas
ures of repression.
But since the days OF Burke the virtue
Of Cancellation has been rated by states
