MORRIS AND CO.
SUSTAINED Loss
REPORT REVEALS
Chicago Packing Firms Re-
Ceipts SIumped $780,
sos for the IL Months
Ending Oct. 20, 1921.

Chicago, Feb. 5.--Morris and
company, packers, sustained a net
loss for the year endi-g october
20, 1921, of $5,SG3,506, while this
loss and operating expenses re-
duced the surplus account from
$13,271,79G.20 to 99,255,43,
decrease of over St1,900.0Oo, ac-
cording to the financial report
made public today.
Volume of sales was satisfactory,
however. the report stated, adding
that cash in bank is over $4,000, 600,
and quick liabilities are about ST.
100000. while quick assets are over
$39, 100000.
Commenting on the report in a
message to stockholders, Nelson
Morris, chairman of the board of
directors, said:
"The year just closed has proba-
bly, been the worst year in the his
tory of both the livestock and pack
ing business. The tremendous drop
in all livestock and wholesale meat
prices to below pre-war levels has
made it impossible to operate ex-
cept at loss; a large part of
which, of course, was caused by
readjusting inventory values to the
new basis.
prospects for the coming year
are better. We fave already had
some reaction in prices and our in
ventory today is worth considerable
more than at the close of our fiscal
year. Every effort is being made
to get expenses in line"

WHOLESALE PRICES OF Il
PORK UNCHANGED LAST
MONTH, FIGURES SHOW

Chicago, Feb. 5.-The two fea-
lures of the meat trade during
January from the viewpoint OF the
consuming public, were the fact
that wholesale prices of fresh pork
remained practically unchanged
despite an increase of about 81 per
100 in the cost of live hogs, ana
the vigorous demand for ham. a
statement of the Institute or
American Meat Packers said to-
day.
Light stocks of pork and hogs at
market centers indicates packers
have refused to accumulate large
stocks at present prices. the report
said.
An effort is being made to mar
ket as much pork as possible Whlle
it is fresh. rather than to place in
cure.
Export trade was described as
"fairly good" for January. The
market for live cattle showed a
lower trend, because cattle receipts
and beef shipments in January
were heavier than for the latter
part of December, said the state
ment. Cattle were also converted
into fresh meat as much as possl-
BILE, it was stated. Live lambs DUR
ing the month showed an increase
of over two cents, the report said.

cIared in a statement today.
