WOUNDED SOLDIERS
GET 35 CENTS A DAY
INDIGNATION IN PORTUGAL
OVER DISCOVERY OF NEG
LECT OF WAR HEROES.

LISBON-(By A. P.)-American
soldiers who complain that the gov
erment does not properly take care
of disabled veterans of the great war
probably are in no worse fix than
some of the Portuguese, who similar
ly suffered and on whose behalf in
dignant protests are being made to
the Portuguese government.
The greatest indignation has been
aroused here by the discovery that 25
wounded soldiers had been discharged
from a government institution with an
allowance equivalet to about 35 cents
a day.
Finding themselves destitute, the
disabled men had decided to form a
group and beg aims in the streets of
Lisbon but they were induced not to
do this by promises that their case
would be presented to Parliament and
complaint would be made against the
action of the War Office. Subscrip-
tions were taken up for them.
All the leading newspapers joined
in the agitation and one of them
threatened that if the government did
not properly aid the disabled men
they would be formed into a process
sion to march through the streets
begging aims.
AS showing the distress of some of
the men who fought for Portugal
in the great war the Imprensa says
that one soldier nearly blind is still
wearing a wooden leg given by the
French while another is trying to
support wife and three children ON
his allowance of 35 cents day.
On the other hand, the War Minis
try has denied any lack of care for
the disabled soldiers and asserted
that many have been offered posts in
the public service but have refused
them.

THE GREAT CHINESE
EGG MENACE CAUSING
APPREHENSION HERE
By W. l.. X. Perry

Nearly every poultryman Is aware
of the fact that China has shipped
many eggs into this country during
the past few months However it is
doubtful if il is generally known 10
what an extent these cheap eggs have
injured the American poultryman.
The Petaluma Chamber of Com
merce recently appointed a committee
who have thoroughly Investigated the
situation After carefully reviewing
the facts they found that last year
Gs2ol there were shipped into the
United States from China, the Ar
gentine and Australia, poultry ana
egg products which represented
value in this country IN excess Of
So. 900 900. The great majority Of
these came from China.
In that part of China, where IT is
possible to secure transportation such
try products there exists today about
25 per cent more poultry than in the
United States.
That portion Of China where trans
portation is not accessible for the
movement of perishable commodities,
of course it is addition TO this amount.
Transportation facilities in China and
the Orient generally are increasing
rapidly and every month sees more
territory added TO that which already
exists, from which perishable commod
! tiles can be moved TO the markets OF
civilization. Eggs are selling in the
/ large cities of China today at retail
| for what would be equivalent to
cents perdozen in United States mon
/ cents per dozen in United states mon
Cheap Shipping Rates
The transportation rates now in et
feet between Oriental shipping points
and New. York City, which today is
the largest egg market in the world
allows eggs to be transported thi'
proximately 4% cents per dozen. II
ship a dozen eggs from any point il
Missouri to New York costs abou
l-2 cents by freight, and if move'
under refrigeration (by eXpress), IN
cost will be about 6 IL cents pc
dozen.
1t may be seen by the above fie
ures that the Missouri poulryma
cannot compete with the Orient Il
the production and marketing of pou
try and eggs. and it is safe TO say tina
if the importation of poultry product
from China and other countries, who's
standards of living are far belo'

stopped. absolute ruin will be the r.
suit for the commercial poultry indus
try in the United states.
The amount of refrigeration spac
which is available between Orient'
shipping points and the United St3te
is increasing at a rapid rate; tcua
there is not less than 10000 tons G
such space available, where less ID"
one year ago there was less than !
The Daily Ardmoreite. [volume] (Ardmore, Okla.) 1893-current, 1921-11-16

per cent of this amount. This is evil
dence of an increasing amount Of
shipping in poultry products by the
transportation companies. all of which
is being dumped on the American
markets at the cost Of the American
poultryman.
Due to the fact that over 100000
people in the United States, either dl-
rectly or indirectly are supported by
the poultry industry, and that this
industry is threatened by the ruinous
competition of China, We feel that
every citizen of this country should
take an active part in securing ade-
industry,
The poultry in both the years 1918
and 1920 produced an actual increase
in wealth TO this country of Sl,250,-
900 GOO Therefore it must be protected
Tariff on Eggs Needed
After careful consideration dt all
phases of this question the consensus
OF opinion is that the American poui-
tryman must have q tariff Of l.
cents per dozen upon all imported
eggs in she'll. 10 cents per pound up
on frozen eggs and egg meats; 20
cents per pound upon all dried eggs
or dessicated egg products; upon
poultry cents per pound. 1t is gen
eral belief that the above figures
have been accepted as 4 fair tariff
and that they will be unanimously
requested in the next permanent
tariff bill.
We wish to suggest that you keep
i'm touch with this serious situation
to the extent that your cooperation
will be available in securing of such
| legislation as will insure the produc'
ers of poultry products in this coun-
/ try of fair margin of profit over
and above cost of production, thereby
| keeping the poultry industry in a
/ fairly prosperous condition.
1t is necessary that the widest pub
| Hcity be given this matter, and it is
hoped that you will use every possible
means of securing publicity, covering
the important points enumerated above
and any others which may seem val
liable to you. You should also i'm
