In accordance with the peltcy of the Food Administration since Iti foundn Hon to Ion Null representative turn la the agricultural Industry on occasion of Importance to .peckil brauches of the Industry, on October 24 there win convened In Washington a meeting of Hie Live Stock Subcommittee of the Aw'' uiiurat AdvlHury Board and the Spatial members repfaBBIItlag tho swine hviustry to consider the situation in the hog market.

If Incorporated In u i:'-to-l ra tio, obviously result In u continuously falling price for live bOg. In view or these chanced conditions many swine preducers anticipated lower prices and as a result rushed their hog to market In large numbers, and this overslilpiueuf has added to and vati'd the decline.
