peace in ireland difficult.
AS the British cabinet went into
session today to draft a reply to us

nounced officially that Craig's plan
for an unconditional home rule in
South Ireland would be rejected as i'm
possible and that the government
would ask that the Ulster represen-
tatives reconsider their latest move
and assume an attitude more reason
able in order that peace might be
attained in the Irish situation.

drastic steps must be taken to prevent
practical wiping out of the stock
raising industry. The only way out
Of the situation is to use up the sur
plus production by increasing con-
sumption in this country.
The proposal to encourage the
packers to embark in the retail bust
ness calls to mind the fact that not
long ago the packers extended their
activities to the supplying of groceries
to their trade. The wholesale grocers
raised so great a disturbance over it
that the packers were forced to dis
continue the handling of their side
lines. If they now embark in the
business OF retailing meat, all meat
dealers between the packers and the
consumers may be expected to de-
mand protection from such competi-
ton. But there can be little doubt
that the consumer would be able to
buy cheaper meat.

SHALL MEAT BE CHEAPER?

Cattle and hogs are either down to
or below pre-war levels. The prices!
of beef and pork, however, have not
reflected adequately the decline. In
creased freight charges, wages and
other overhead expenses have prevent
ed a commensurate reduction in the
wholesale price of slaughtered cattle
and hogs. The packers are now ask
ing their employees to cut their own
wages thru their plant assemblies.
Retail prices of meats. on the other
hand, are entirely out of line. There
has been some drop, but relatively, re-
tail prices are still too high. This
does not mean that retailers neces-
sarily are profiteering. Government
officials point out that the cost of dis
tribution of meats, from cheaper cat
tie and hogs, is practically the same
as when it was at the peak.
1t is pointed out that the paper in
which meat is wrapped for the house
wives cost SO per cent more than in
pre-war days; rents for shops are
higher; wages of clerks and delivery
men are higher; even the Irvine with
WHicn packages are tleu COSTS more
Furthermore, the government reports
that the average retailer is taking
nearly twice the profit per pound that
he did before the war. Service" it IS
said. is what binders aAproper adjust
ment between the prices the farmer
gets and those consumers pay.
Now. Washington reports confer
ence between government officials
and the big packers looking toward a
reduction in the retail costs of meats.
The plan under consideration con-
templates opening by the packers of
retail meat markets in all the large
cities of the country to sell directly to
the consumer. The big packers are
reported to be not very anxious to
extend their business into the retail
market. since it would bring retalia-
tion from their present customers.
However, it is thought in Washing
ton that with the "big five" under
government control the move would
take a semi-official aspect. The rea-
son for this unusual suggestion is that
