Russians in Chicago to
Buy Sheep and Hogs for
the Farmers Back Home
BY J. LOUIS ENoDAHL.

TODAY 700 meat packers meeting in Chicago plotting
and planning make this branch of American food
proeerng triumphant in the world They have gathered
at the Drake Hotel the Gold Coast where less respect
bandits happened kill of their victims and are now
facing death on the galows.
F. Edison White, who has displaced J. Ogden Armour, at
the head of Armour Co., notifies the others that the Am
erican packing industry in with all this nations in
dustries must prepare itself ITO within the next 20
years the most competition has experenced
1t was perhaps rather significant that the time
White delivering his warming three representatives OF
the Union Of Soviet Republics wandering about the
stooyards in this Chicago, picking up few thousand
rams here few sheep there and somewhere else
few thousand hogs All in ALL the Russians spent about
quarter of million dollars in making their purchases
The workers and peasants do not intend to eat
those sheep hogs They paid high prices for them and
they going them breed better sheep and hogs
within the Soviet Union Russian agriculture and animal
husbandy still in their primitive stages to very great
extent but they rapidly forging to the front
Michael s. Pereferovtoh manager Of the live stock de-
parmen of the Soviet government who heads the mission
here, says Soviet rule doing everything possible to AID IT'S
farmers
ers who have learned many bitter experiences that the
American capitalist government at washington does every
thing help those who atten OFT the farmers me
bankers absentee landlords and the food gamblers NO
such trumvrate sits longer the backs OF the Russian
peasantry.
White tells the American packers that scientific study
intensive elaborate inventions ana
substitution of machines for must be used to the
limit to fight this competition that threatens American in
dusty Which they must be used produce cheaper
goods sold greater profits than the products
Of other countries.
The Russians will certainly join with the American
muIti-nonaire packer declaring that scientific study
intensive research elaborate inventions and continued
substiton of machines for manpower are all good But
the Russians they only lift the burden of toll
from abos shoulders that the farmers under emancpat
ing may stand and free for the first time in
all Russian history and to improve all Russian agriculture
White did not say that he thinking Of the Union
Republics when he spoke of the approaching OF
greater competition.
Better sheep wool for better clothing. More
hogs greater export of bacon and other products to
Great Britain western Europe. Even the old Russia
considered bread basket of Europe This will prove
of the New Russia, where the abolition of
profits has unclaimed the struggling efforts of the many to
build for a better life
In such competitive struggle 1t easily be
which side the victors will rest Free peoples have
always conquered ensIaved peoples. Russian agriculture
will for this in time not only oudstance American
agriculture, but the Russian people will also show the plum
peoples of America how follow their footsteps
and achieve their own triumph their oppressors.
