CHANDLER MOTOR CAR COMPANY, Cleveland, O.
Swift & Company
Publicity
At a recent hearing of the Federal Trade Commission there
was introduced correspondence taken from the private files of
Swift & Company,which showed that the Company had been con
sidering for some time an educational advertising campaign.
The need for this publicity has been apparent to us for sev
eral years. The gross misrepresentation to which we have
recently been subjected has convinced us that we should no longer
delay in putting before the public the basic facts of our business,
relying on the fair-mindedness of the American people.
The feeling against the American packer is based largely on
the belief that the income and well-being of the producer and
consumer are adversely affected by the packers operations,
resulting in unreasonably large profits.
Swift & Company's net profit is reasonable, and represents
an insignificant factor in the cost of living.
For the fiscal year 1917 the total sales and net profit of Swift
& Company were as follows:
Sale
$875,000,000. mmiimm. - a i
Profits
$34,650,000.
This is equivalent to a $3,465. profit on a business of $87,500.
If Swift & Company had made no profit at all, the cattle raiser
would have received only one-eighth of a cent per pound more for his
cattle, or the consumer would have saved only one-quarter of a cent per
pound on dressed beef.

Frank Swaggart, young farmer and

Echo Man Near Internment.
Tom Ross came near being intern
ed last week as an alien enemy, ac
cording to a story told by a member
of the Pendleton secret service. The
detective had been Watching a Teu
ton of mysterious manner, and fol
lowed him to the railroad station.
Mr. Ross was there waiting for the
motor, and when the German saw
him he advanced with outstretched
hand, and saluted Ross with what
the detective says is the salutatlou
sign of the alien sympathizer: "It
is Ludwig, my friend, yes?" In
stead of coming back with the phrase
that would have branded him as an
associate of the German spy, Ross be
rated the stranger so strongly for
mistaking him for an individual with
a Teuton name, that the secret serv
ice man was satisfied Rosa was not
an agent of the Kaiser. Mr. Ross
does not yet know how close he was
to arrest. Echo News.

Candidate For the Republican Xom-
ination for Governor.
Dr. Anderson is best known
throughout the state as the "Father"
of prohibition, as he introduced In
the state legislature the prohibition
law of 1915 as well as the "bone-dry"
law of 1917. That he is proud of the
title is evidenced by the fact that
when he filed notice of his candidacy
for Governor he ordered the words
'Bone Dry; Win the War; Develop
Oregon" printed after his name on
the ballot.
He is a native of Illinois, but has
resided in Oregon for the past six
teen years, all of the time in The
Dalles.
As a member of the Oregon legis
lature in 1913-1915 and 1917 he has
always been actively identified with
the constructive measures coming
before that body. He was a member
