With plentiful reserves and resources virtually untouched, her people starved at home and at the, front because there, was no adequate organization to place food where it was needed. ' . Animals on the hoof were shipped thousands of miles to the various fronts, wasting trans portation facilities required for" other purposes. They arrived shrunken and emaciated, to be killed and dressed amidst filth and confusion behind the lines. Half of those brought from Siberia, it is said, perished on the .'way; many more were unlit for food. On the other hand, the American packers turned live stock into meat in large sanitary plants located in the producing sections, and shipped the product under refrigeration so that it reached the trenches in France in perfect condition, witho"t waste.
