A resolution is to be urged on the
coming session of congress requir
ing that the American artuy in the
Philippines l«e supplied with Amer
ican meats. Th* army there con
sumes about 40,000,000 pounds of
meat annually, all of which ia said
to be secured from foreign sources.
The National Association of Ex
porters has issued a call for a meet
ing to be held the latter part of
June at Chicago, to take up the
question, and attention will be giv
en to the subject by the National
Association of manufacturers, which
meets at Atlanta in August, and al
so by the Millers’ Association of
the United States, the Agricultural
Implement Manufacturers associa
tion and other bodies. It will prob
ably be brought before the Portland
convention of the Trans-Missiseippi
congress.
The livestock men are making a
determined effort to enlarge foreign
trade, and secure a readjustmept of
our commercial relations with con
tinental countries, in behalf of freer
admission of Americau meut pro
ducts. The recent split. between
the packers and growers in the na
tional meeting of the asstx-iation at
Denver, and the formation of sepa
rate bodies, grew out of the fact
that the interests of the two clashed
when it came to some matters of
national policy and legislation.
The live stock growers of the
west want, among their things,
to secure from the transportation
interests of the country adequate
and proper service at reasonable
and equitable rates: and front the
packing house combine a stable and
regular market in response to the
legitimate demands of the public,
and avoidance of market tuunipula-
tion. The association is a strong
adherent of the doctrine of gov
ernment control of railroad rates,
and the abolition of special privi
leges and rebates.
