To The American People There is no foundation for the alleged violations of law attributed to our Com pany by agents of the Federal Trade Commission and I want to say emphatic ally that Swift & Company is not a party to any conspiracy to defraud the Govern ment Nor has Swift & Company been guilty of improperly storing foods or of making false entries or reports. Conferences of packers, where prices have been discussed, have been held at the urgent request and in the presence of representatives of either the Food Administration or the Council of National Defense. And yet the packers) have been accused of committing a felony by acting in collusion on Government bids 1 We have done our best, with, other packers, large and small, to 'Comply with the directions of the United States Food Administration in all particulars, including the furnishing of food supplies) for the U. S. Army and Navy and the AlSesnow be ing handled through the Food Adminis tration. We will continue to do our utmot,un- der Government direction, to increase our production and assist the Food- Adminis tration. We consider that the opportunity to co-operate whole-heartedly- and to our fullest powers with this branch of the Government is our plain and most ) press ing duty. . The Trade Commission Attorney'has,1 by false inference and misplaced empha sis, given to disconnected portions-of the correspondence taken from our private files and read into the Record, a false and sinister meaning with the plain.purpose of creating antagonistic public opinion. The services of the packersof the United States are most urgentlyneeded, and I regret exceedingly that weshould at this time have to spend our efforts in defending ourselves againsf unfounded, unproved, and unfair assertions, such as are being daily made public. Qirr. President Swift & Company, U.S. A.
