Financial Crimes Jump.

Financial crimes have increased
alarmingly since 1913" says f. A.
st. John, president of the National
Surety Company of New York.
Losses paid by a group Of surety
and burglary insurance companies
in 1913 totaled $3,328,789. These
same companies in 1923 paid losses
OF $20,912, 706, and will pay as much
more in 1924. Our own share in
1928 was 17,051-the largest of
any single company. In thirty-five
years we have paid in losses $4O,-
100000. If the crime wave is to be
checked employers, public prescott
ors and magistrates must join in a
campaign for relentless prosecution
of the criminal and seVerer prison
sentences.
Financial and commercial insti-
buttons must increase protection Of
messengers and funds; must be
more careful in selecting new en-
ployes; must watch even old and
trusted employees and install better
systems Of accounts and checking.
Citizens and public officials must
insist upon honesty courses in the
public schools.
Magistrates must increase re,
spect for the law by imposing more
severe sentences.
Surety companies must seek to
punish more severely the unfaithfuI
bonded n1an-they should do, as
this company has done-make the
punishment fit the crime.
while these measures will not
end burglary and embezzlement
they will prevent their increase, and
should. greatly lessen the yearly
Ioss.'

MEAT PACKING
INDUSTRY
NORMAL
President Of Packers Organ
ization Addresses Convention
on Meat Production

CHICAGO, Oct. 21.-After pass
ing through q year which brought
the heaviest meat production of
its history. the meat packing in.
dustry apparently is entering upon
a period of lighter hog receipts
from farms which indicates a re-
turn to- normal production, accord
Ing to Charles r. Herrick, president
OF the Institute of American Meat
Packers, in an address made today
before the nineteenth annual con-
vention Of the institute at the Drake
Hotel.
"As pork production has de.
creased. storage stocks have been
drawn upon to help supply the
consumptive demand, and prices
have strengthened" he said. with
the dwindling Of the hog run, hog
prices advanced sharply, so that
current prices are very much higher
than those which prevailed a decade
ago. Hogs, for example, have been
selling on the Chicago market for
an average price considerable higher
than $40 per 100 pounds. This is
approximately cents a pound, or
40 per cent above the prices which
prevailed Just a decade ago, and
also about 40 per cent above the
prices which ruled q year ago.
Cattle are about 12 per cent higher
than they were a decade ago, sheep
about 20 per cent higher and lambs
about IS per cent higher"
considerable Improvement has
been shown during the last year in
the hide market, according to Mr..
Herr1ck. although he pointed out
that hide prices still are well below
1914 levels.
The institute president then quoted
OFFICIAL figures on meat production
during the current year. He said
in part:
More Hogs Slaughtered.
During the seven months ended
with July, the latest figures OBJ.
tainable. the number Of hogs dressed
under Federal inspection-thc only
slaughter for which official figures
are now available-exceeded by
more than II million, or apuroxi.
mately per cent, the number
dressed in the similar period of
1928. The number of cattle, calves,
ana sheep dressed under Federal in.
spectlon during this same period was
slightly larger than in 1923.
The Importance Of the, increase
In hog slaughter becomes apparent
when we consider that the humber
OF hogs dressed under Federal in
spection during the first seven
months Of 1923 exceeded nv three
million, or about Is per cent. those
dressed during the similar period
OIL any preceding year.
During August and Septemfer
however, receipts Of hogs at the
leading markets slackened, SO that
the total received at seven markets
for the latter month was approxi.
mately per cent below the nun.
Der received during September a
year ago."
In discussing the export situa.
ton, Mr.. Herrick stated: Our ex.
port trade has not been as salts.
factory during the current wear
as We had hoped it would. The
latest figures available, those for
the eight months ending with Au.
gust, indicate that the total ouan.
tty of our exports was only Az
per cent, or 69,000,00O pounds.
smaller than during similar period
a year ago, but that the value
was some z per cent or $4,000 900
less"
