But presto! The “strip” heard that the congressional committee was coming to town and might look them over, and over night, almost, the strip cleaned house. Rubbish was gathered in piles and sburned by night. The odors which arose from their burnings had our friend Frye stunk off the map. And paint! Nobody knows when they did it, but those shacks blossom ed forth over night, resplendent in the morning sunlight in coats of gray paint with white trimmings.

Prices— . Up or Down? High prices for livestock in- * crease the producer's income. Low prices decrease it and even result in losses. Similarly, high prices for meat increase con- sumer’s expenses. But Swift &,Company as a middleman does not benefit by high or low prices. Our income depends not on & high level of prices or a low level, but rather on the margin between the live- stock price and the meat and by-products price. The company’s only concern, in whether prices should be high or low, is that they should be high enough to satisfy pro- ducers and low enough to please consumers; but over the move- ment: of these prices Swift & Company has no control. Swift & Company is compelled by competition to pay high enough prices for livestock to secure an adequate supply. We must sell meat at a price low enough to make it move. We endeavor also, between the two prices, to secure a margin large enough to pay all expenses and yield a fair profit. Our profit for 1919 averaged less than two cents on each dollar of sales, or 6% per cent on money invested. Swift & Company, U. S. A. Seattle Local Branch, 201-11 Jackson St, J. L.
