implication that the consent decree

Producers of butter. eggs and.
poultry felt distinctly easier in their
minds. for although poultry and
dairy products were. excepted from
the operation of the consent decree.
the Federal Trade Commission has
submitted a. report recommending
that the large packers be divorced
from ownership or operation of re-
fugeratorfi‘urs. Dairy and poultry
men-vhavc been worried as to who
would transport, store or distribute
their products it the recommenda-
tions were complied with.
There is little reason to doubt the
statement of the packers that they
are little exercised as to whether
they engage in the marketing of
_ canned goods or ,uot. The whole
business grew out or the desire to}
use retr orator care to their utmost
capacity Catcasses oi beet and mu:-
ton in the cars hang i‘xom walls
along the. row! and thvre is consider»
able space beneath them. The pack-
ers found that the best way to utilize
this space was to pack canned goods.
dairy products and poultry beneath
the meat.
Then too the fruit and other pro.
ducts produce-d return loads for the
meat cars which otherwise would
-have been returned to the
establishment empty. \Vhen cars
were sent into the fruit or vegetab
districts or to sea food centers loa
ed with beer. they were able to pick
up grapes or‘ other fruits or sea. food.
transport them to the canneries and
take on loads of finished products
Which then were combined pith beet
cargoes shipped from the central
distributing points.
. The packers hurl space in their
fioolers [or the raw products and
3 place in ‘their warehouses for the
finished goods. These methods of
operation became fairly general and
enabled some of the packers to sell
such canned products at prices
fat: which Were far from pleasing to
some ot'the large grocers in various
”sections. Considerable controversy
resulted and in 1820 the packers en-
' *4 ”tered an agreement with the govern-
Eek
.ment. known as the Consent Decree.
by which they agreed not to manu-
facture products not derltatives or
meat with the exceptions of dairy
products and poultry and some few
other food articles
. The Culltornia. canners with whom
l-Arfnour and Company had a con~
,, tract to take a certain percentage
l; at output sought to have the consent
. Fidecree declared void as tending to
‘ .' ‘dcmrive them of their rights without
due process or law. In resisting
that pics. the government, according
to the packers made certain allega-
t1:10:13 that the packers had violated
a. law or laws in their operations and
.that the consent decree Was the re~
suit of those violations. It is the
clearing of the record in this respect
' that the packers demanded most.
.. Nevertheless, the suspension of the
accree insular as the California
gunners are concerned, probably
,will result in the entry or California
