Children Given Food Instead of Toys and Candy

Four thousand children whom Santa

And four children who had the best

his gifts to the city's poor. From
their seats on tho platform, between
Commander Eva Booth and Mrs. John
+. Mott, wife Of the head of the Young
Mems Christian Association. they
gazed out over the sea Of thin childish
faces, and the rows of ragged little
figures.
However, the four little rich chill
drcn had little time for philosophizing
over the difference between their state
and that Of the four thousand. for
there came prancing in dancinr
donkey. who shimmied and bowes! in a
way that was as irresistible to Fifth
Avenue as to Third.
Firc-Eater Has Narrow ESCAPE
The little Shepards laughed and the
four thousand let out roar that
brought persons running from all over
the block to try and elude the qua rds :

Prices of Meats
At Retail Fa1lino
In Many Lines
Medium Cuts of Beef Have
Declined Two to Eight
Cents i'll Six Months: Lamb
and Mutton Also Lower

Retail meat prices have steadily dc
cnned in the last siX months, medium
cuts of beef being to cents pound
lower, with even greater reductions in
ali but the fancy and special grades of
meats. according to survey made
throughout Greater New York by tho
Meat Council, representing all factors
IN the city's meat distribution.
Striking reductions over last sum
mer's prices have been made by butch
ers for round steak, which is a third
less in some markets, and sirloin steak.
which is 25 per cent lower in MANY
stores.
Lamb and mutton can be hourht for
10 cents less pound, with chops even
lower. That is a decline of about 25
per cent
Fresh pork has shown about tho same
decline, and hams and other cured prod
ucts have fallen off one-third in retail
price. The Meat Council urges house
wives TO buy more pork.
Meats of the very highest grades. ac-
eordlng to the survey, continue high,
because there is concentration of de
mand for them. Poultry also remains
hlgh because there is not normal sun
ply of the best grades.
According to August +. Grimm. chair
man of the meat council. moro rapid
reduction of prices by retail butchers
IS prevented by heavy overhead costs.
increased freight, higher rents. higher
labor costs and startling reductions in
the market for butchers by-products. He
says butchers receive $40 and $50 week
ly, whereas wages formerly averaged
S22, and calfskins sell at Is cents .
pound that brought $50 pound a
year ago; fat trimmings for and 6
cents that formerly brought 90 cents.
and suet for l e cents that sold for
II cents.
The outstanding features of tho
wholesale meat market during the last
week were the increased prices in
choice poultry and cattle and special
meats generally, such as turkeys, roast
Ing pigs and spring lambs There was
8 strong demand for all these meats.
Prices of hogs and lambs remained
steady and showed no marked change.
Butter prices advanced cent during
the week. Receipts Of eggs were lght
and were quickly used up by the
market
In tho vegetable market cahbace
and caulfower were plentiful Twenty
cars of cabbage are expected in the
market this week. Receipts of celery
were heavier than last week, but car
rots and especially onions were light.
The combined holdings in storage OF
apples were 6,7AS,362 barrels, COM
pared with 5,922,S79 last year, and
100000 more than two years ago.

Bcause Of the unemployment. many
families already are beginning to feel
hard times. the army scouts dis

were in the Christmas bags, but nuts,
raisins, crackers and popcorn.
"Next year we hope to be able to
give the children toys again" said
Commander Eva Booth. "Perhaps we
shall be able to buy them cheaper by
that time, and the people will not be
in such great need Of nourishing 2
things to eat. We gave ont chicken

1t Is d Time for C0-0pevati0n

EVERY industry, every business, every
IL individual is to-day face to face with
the inevitable return to a lower cost of
living, to more sensible buying, to more
stable markets. 1t will be a welcome
change if accomplished calmly; it may
otherwise cause untold hardship.
We stand for frank facing of the facts
and cooperative effort to bring about
the change as quickly and as easily as
may be.

The Situation Whfch
MuSt Be Faced

THE present situation is a deadlock.
4 Until the manufacturer can depend
upon a steady and reasonably uniform
flow Of orders from the merchant, he can
not plan his future production with any
New-York tribune., 1921-01-02

certainty, and therefore cannot revise his
prices to meet the new conditions.
Until the merchant can forcsee consistent
buying on the part of the public, he can
not give the manufacturer assurance that
the orders will be forthcoming. Until
prices are definitely and permanently
lower there is no assurance that the pub
lie will continue to buy at a consistent
rate, even though there may be no
present lapse.
New-York tribune., 1921-01-02
The Hathavay Solution

WE are breaking through this trio1so-

a definite production program is assured.
