The man who has 4een. prominently
mentioned as the probable secretary
of the Japanese delegation to the peace
conference spent yesterday in Portland.
He disclaimed any Information as to
this probability. , .
K. Kumasaki, formerly Japanese
Consul at Portland, will be the first of
the Japanese diplomatic corps in Rus
sia to return home to make personal
report to his government on conditions
n the land of Bolshevism.
Mr. Kumasaki Is of the trained diplo
matic service of Japan, 'educated in
the government school. He speaks half
a dozen languages and while in Port
land as Consul was known for his
mastery of Knglish, knowledge of the
American people and admiration for its
uovernment.
Home Voyage Beg-ina Today.
Recalled from this country, he was
assigned to the Foreign Office in Tokio
ana soon dispatched to Russia as secre
tary to the Consul-General at Moscow.
With the foreign legations acoorded
safe conduct to Sweden a few months
ago he reached Stockholm and under
orders of his government proceeded
homeward. He spent yesterday in
Portland and took advantage of the
opportunity to call on old friends, leav
ing for Seattle last night. He will sail
tor nome today.
lesterday jir. Kumasaki recalled
some of the scenes of the revolution
In Moscow. A year ago Moscow was
in tne throes of conflict, when the Bol
shevik forces overthrew the Kerensky
government. The revolutionists brought
into the city a number of pieces of ar
tillery. The irony of the situation to
the Japanese there was the fact that
the field pieces were of their own man
ufacture. Fortunatelv. it was fmmri
that the larger cannon had been put out
of "commission. N

With shrapnel, and many buildings- de
stroyed. For six days there was fierce
fighting between the soldiers loyal to
the Kerensky government and tha rev
olutionists who, largely unorganized,
resorted to plunder as their might gave
them opportunity.
Formation of the tenants' commit.
tee of the Bolshevik government, he
said, was one of the drastic measures
taken. This committee demanded of
the owners of buildings that one-half 1
of all the income from their property
should be paid over to the committee.
The effect of this conscription of reve
nue caused owners of buildings to at
tempt to conserve by reducing service,
in which they were outdistanced by
the desertion of janitwrs, engineers in
charge of heating plants and other
workers, who Joined the ranks'of the
revolutionists.
Destitution Is General.
Long before members of the foreign
legations induced the alleged govern
ment to afford them safe conduct to
the border chaos prevailed. There was
destitution everywhere, and desolation
was sweeping over the land that a lit
tle while before had been plentifully
supplied with essentials.

'i.
What Determines Meat and
Live-Stock Prices?
Some" stock 'men'still " think that Swift Company,
and other big packers can pay as Iittle for live-stock as
they wish.
Some consumers" are'still led to believe'that the packers
can charge as much for dressed meat as they wish.
This is not true. These prices are fixed by " a law 7 of
human nature as old as humannature Jtself thejawof
supply and demand.,
When more people want meat than there is meat to be 'had, the
scramble along the line to get it for them sends prices up. When
there is more meat than there are people who want it, the scramble
all along the line to get rid of it within a few days, while it. is stil
fresh, sends prices down.
When prices of meat goup Swift & Company" not 'onTy'can pay the
producer more, but has to pay him more, or some other packer will.
Similarly, when prices recede all down the line Swift & Company
cannot continue to pay the producer the same prices as Jjefore, and
still remain in the packing business.
All the packer can do is to keep theexpense"of turrunglstck into
meat at a minimum, so -that the consumer can get as much as
possible for his money, and the producer as much as poslible for his
live-stock.
Thanks to" its" splendid "plantsTmodern" methods7 branch" houses,
car routes, fleet of refrigerator cars, experience and organization,'
Swift $ 'Company is able to pay for live cattle 90 per cent of what it!
receives for beef and by-products, and to cover expense of production'
and distribution, as well , as its profit (a small fraction of a .cent per
oound), out of the other 10 percent.
