From The Tribune'8 Washington Bureau
WASHINGTON, May 3O.-The aver
age American pays one-siXth of his
earnings for products controlled either
directly or indirectly by the big pack
ers, W. Jett Laucls, consulting eco1o-
mist for the railroad labor orEaniza-
tions, declared in a statement to-day
The statement was based on q survey Of
proftecring in the packing industry
submitted by him TO tie United States
Labor Board.
THE average American tamiiy,' said
Mr. Lauck. has been contrib1ting dur
ing and since the war period from $500
to $500 yoar to swell the gross re-
turns of the Big F:ve meat packers
namely, the Swift, Armour, Morris, Will
son and Cudahy companies.
"While wages paid by these concerns
increased IS per cent and the value Of
products only 100 per cont, the profits
increased from 800 to 400 per cent
not only in dollars but in rates of re-
turn on investment during and since
the war,
"The precise amount which the rapac-
Lty Of these big interests is costing the
american public is not ascertainabio,
but they now have under their control

OIL, soap, leather, sugar and other neces-
saNos of daily life. Their grip also is

groceries. Moreover. the Big Five
stand in real financial relationship with
'O0-odd corporations whose eXtortion-
ate prohteering has contributed largely
10 the present financial distress amonr
jhe working people of the nation.
According to their own published
figures the Big Five earned between
