INDEPENDENTS CLAIM
PROFITS ARE SMALL
Industry Being Harrassed by In
worthy Promotion Schemes, Says
President Rath, Of Waterloo Com
pany-spseulativs Elements De-
pIorsd.

Waterloo. May 2s.-Promoters in
Iowa, carrying neatly bound pro-
spectuses containing quotations from
politicians, the federal trade board
and other sources, that would harass
the packing industry, by setting forth
alleged enormous profits. have sold
$25.000,00o worth Of stock to farmers
OF Iowa, much Of which will be lost.
This il the gist Of statements made
by the officers Of the Rath Packing
Company, one Of five independent
plants in Iowa that have filed their
protests at Washington against leg
islation directed at the meat packing
8 industry In general
The reason profits Of the big
packers look large Is because Of the
enormous capital required to operate
the business" said J. w. Rath, presi-
dent Of the company. 1.-THE records
show that the largest profit obtained
in wartime by q big Chicago packer
{ was ~ per cent, and yet reports have
been circulated that as high as 200
per cent was realized In the business.
On the strength Of these false reports
Of big profits, millions Of dollars
worth Of stock In proposed new pack
ing plants have bean sold to the far
Iners Of lowe, much Of 1t being lost
thru unwise or dishonest manage
ment.
Tho interest Of farmers and packers
in Iowa is identical. What helps one.
helps the other: what harms one,
harms the other. Tho profits OF
neither the farmer nor the packer
are fixed by any set law, neither can
organize to put his industry on a
cost-plus basis, AZ Industrial packing
businesses are small and the risks
great. In six weeks last year we lost
10 cents q pound on meats. The far
mers' loss was equally heavy. It re-
suited from an unexpected drop in
the market.
Speculative Elements DspIored.
I'VE can not produce our products
and sell them on any definite and
. reliable cost basis. The price de-
ponds upon surces over which we
/ have no control We arc handling
live animals that are subject to be-
/ ing smothsrsd In cars. to crippling
or manning. W1e buy and sell on
an uncertain market. . market that
rises and tails, that fluctuates in q
manner that no one can foresee."
Tho Rath company officers say
that the really big profits are in the
oil. steel and automobile Industries,
as shown by the records or enormous
growth. and yet there Il no congress
sional probe 1.or them. There was
