The three hotels were not named by strike leaders woh made the an- nouncement. It was said they have not yet been affected by the strike. Both sides are claiming the upper hand as a result of the end of the war The strikers #ay the big hotels lost $500,000 on Election night, last Thur- day when tho first report of the armistice signing was circulated, and on Monda: when the big news was| ofMcially announced.

The walters declare the real issue directly affects the public, It is a question, they say, whether the ca- terers ghall pay them living wages|. or the public shall be compelled to do so through the “tipping” system, in addition to the high prices charged and shortened portions the restau- rants serve under food regulations, Restau‘ant men assert the waiters will not abate their exaction of “tips.” The end of the war, they say, brings labor conditions more nearly to nor- mal and their “help” no longer can grip, them, Sherry’s closed when 150 waiters, cooks and storeroom girls walked out and joined 2,500 strikers meeting at the New Amsterdam Opera House.

Comparison has been made by the Federal Trade Commission of this profit with the profit on coal, and it has pointed out that anthracite coal operators are content with a profit of 25 cents a ton, whereas the beef profit of one-fourth of a cent a pound means a profit of $5.00 a ton, The comparison does nof point out that anthracite coal at the seaboard is worth at wholesale about $7.00 a ton, whereas a ton of L.G.

Mr, Fisher has bad a sea chi fe ad forty- nine years, GOME people have an idea that “all molasses is alike."’ This is not so. Molasses varies in grades —like coffee, for instance. To know real molasses is to know Brer Rabbit — absolutely pure New Orleans Molasses from New Orleans. ‘The sugar shortage taught thousands of resourceful housewives how Brer Rabbit takes the place of sugar. We all know that we use sugar be- cause it’s swect—it has no flavor. But Brer Rabbit not only sweetens like sugar —it flavors. Both sugar and Brer Rabbit are made from Sugar Cane. Both are pure.

To carry the comparison further, the 25 cent profit on coal is 31/ per cent oi the $7.00 value. The $5.00 profit on beef is only 114 per cent of the $400.00 value. The profit has little effect on price in either case, but has less effect on the price of beef than on the price of coal. Coal may be stored in the open air indefinitely; beef must be kept in expensive coolers because it is highly perishable and must be refrigerated. Coal is handled by the carload or ton; beef is delivered to retailers by the pound or hundred weight. Methods of hendling are vastly different. Coal is handled in open cars; beef must be shipped in refrigerator cars at an even temperature. Fairness to the public, fairness to Swift & Company, fairness to the packing industry, demands that these indisputable facts be considered, It is impossible to disprove Swift & Company’s statement, that its profits on beef are so small as to have practically no effect on prices, Swift & Company, U.
