Sanborn Discusses Relation
Retail, Wholesale Meat Price

closer organization than any of the
big trade union organizations of
America?
There is no more justification for
the prices asked by many retailers of
meat than there would be for an auto
cratic form Of government in America.
"A recent survey of wholesale and
retail meat prices in Chicago dis
closed startling comparisons. Only
last week / checked up on prices in
two shops located directly across the
street from each other.
Tells Of Own Observations.
Meat obtained from the same pack
er was being sold in one shop at from
10 to Is cents a pound more than the
same Brand and cuts were bringing
across the street In another shop
found popular brand of sausage re-
failing at the same price it was bring
ing during the period of high prices OF
last fall and winter, although I happen
to know that the maker Of the sausage
has reduced his price to less than the
pre-war basis.
Il was offered lard Of a well-known
! brand at exactly two and one-half
times the price that brand was whole
sailing for on that day. Bacon costing
wholesale 80 to IS cents was offered at
IS to IS cents pound, the buyer pay.

An Injury to Producers,
In rapping the federal trade COM
,, mission for its activities against the
packers" Mr.. Brown declared that
Attorney General Palmer. when he
forced the packers to give up their
side lines, did more to hurt the farm
er and producer in America than any
one thing that has happened in the
| last 10 years.
| 1t is no secret in trade circles that
the large packers, and other wholesale
meat distributors supplying a part OF
the trade, have long blamed retailers
for the slump in the consumption OF
| fresh meats, notably beef and NUT
| ton. 1t is also true that less ham
and bacon has been eaten in the aver
| age home than would have been con
sumed had the retail prices more gen
orally kept pace with the trend in
wholesale quotations. The meat deal
ers will not dispute this. They know
it to be true; they know how otter
! the careful buyer has cut an order
| in two on account of the extravagan
| cost.
Worse in Large Cities
! AS President Brown has indicated
price conditions are most unsatisfac
tory in large cities. The corne

BY WILLIAM r. SANRoRN.

A Franklin township farmer who
had trucked in a few hogs and a
couple of calves on a recent morning
decided that when he came to town
with Ma" on Saturday they would
pick up a veal steak or roast. Having
sold has calves on the basis of seven
cents per pound he concluded that
veal would be on a pre-war level
So he took Ma around to the market
house before pulling out for home.
Having discovered some likely looking
veal steak at market woman's stand
he at once prepared to invest. How
much pound" he asked? Fifty
cents" replied the lady. This was a
shock to the farmer, who began to see
red. There was no veal served in
that farm home on Sunday.
And this reminds US of well-to-do
citizen whose family agreed that, so
long as cattle is so cheap and beet
roasts so dear. they will limit their
being the extent of their beef buying
until beef on the block is much
lower.
Greatest Profiteers Ever Known.
A story comes out of Washington
declaring that 'the national live stock
! exchange has declared war on the re
tail meat dealers. The man who fired
the first gun in the fray was no less a
parsonage than Everett c. Brown
| president Of that exchange. He was
| speaking before the agricultural com
: mlttee OF the house in opposition tC
meat packer legislation. In his talk
he characterized the meat retailers as
the greatest profiteers this country
has ever known" He urged the com
mittee to desist in trying to regulate
the packers and to concentrate efforts
| to break up the profiteering BY
retail meat market men"
Brown Hits from the Shoulder
| When the president of the Nationa
Live Stock exchange talks before con
gress in relation to the final market
ing of meat animals, as did Mr. Brown
on Thursday, his conclusions meri

was the position taken by the Chi
