The Amer ican Meat Packers association in a statement Issued today declares that lower prices for meat may not be ex pected until the war-stricken coun tries of Europe are enabled to resume their quota of production. The statement reads in part: ' "That high prices are caused large ly by heavy demands rather than any f control aimed to stimulate production has recently been illustrated - very -clearly in the case of hogs. When the minimum price fixed for hogs was removed,' the food administra tion predicted that the prices might go still higher. 'The prediction is .npw being verified. ,'"Higk prices will continue for a ; long time. Each day that brings final peace nearer means a greater , call on this country tor meat. The supply of meat Js dependent first of all on, the supply of livestock. " European herds have been reduced by war. "Livestock on farms in the United States at the beginning of this year exceeded the number at the begin' nlng of 1918 by 1,036,000 cattle, 4 213,000 hogs and 963.000 sheen. "But the armistice, instead of hav ing reduced the demand tor meat has given us more than 200,000,000 additional mouths to feed, ; either wholly or in part. As shipping hi comes available, an increasing nam ber of hungry nations will be acces sible for provisioning.' ONE umy talk until blue in 'tluv face ulnint tho Lcmguo of Nations but the issue in the last analysis is this, some sort of League-, of Nations or the ruin of moderu civilization. ,' ; , ; This does, not menu that no criticism of tho terms of the Covenant should be made. ThOVahuvof sincere and honest criticism .has been demonstrated,, by the recent amendments to the former, draft. . ' s But friends of tho league while naturally desiring tho best working arrangement that can' bo secured, neverthe less feel that sonic international organisation, even with sonic minor delects, is prererable to no organization at ail. For the alternative to no League of Nations is 'plainly to return to the old system of the balance of power. And tho balance of power means a return to largo standing amnes. large navies, the inci-ease of debts and taxes upon a world already staggering under obligations tuat only ircnerations of peace can liquidate.

And it should bo noted that among the bitterest opponents of the League of Na tions are Leuine and Trotzky. yYhy ' Because they realize the best friend of Bolshevism is war, ami its Avorst enemy peace. In other words the seeds of Bolshevik de struction lie within itself, only requiring the germination influence of peace and order, to demonstrate the lesson that civilization to endure can no more tolerate the tyran ny and autocracy of a class, than the tyranny and auto cracy of a nation. - I y , - CANADIAN TROOPS WILL . i .

Herbert C, Hoover, the food administrator. has issued a statement with regard to the feeding' of Russia. The 'itata ment says: ; ' "'- v-' With regard to ithe rumors, of food relief to Russia. Mr. . Hoover stated that numbers of projects from various sources have been laid beforo him for provisioning the people "in the larger cities ot Russia. Qr. Nan son (bead of the Norwegian food mission - to the United States') and other eminent neutrals came to Paris sometime ago with proposals for relief (words missing) of the first order and. have "therefore all been referred to the council of tour as they arose.' --, The relief - administration has! carried on a great deal of investiga tion as to the actual food conditions In Russia. The gravity of the situa tion cannot bo over-estlmatod. A very conservative estimate would in dicate that upward ot two hundred thousand people arc dlreatly or indi rectly dying from the food shortage monthly at the present moment and the situation is likely to grow in in tensity as the season progresses., , ."Our. reports would indicate that the children who. attend the schools are being reasonably cared for, that the Red Guard Is receiving a suffic ient ration but that the burdon of the shortage falls upon. the middle, upper and Intellectual classes and threatens their considerable . extinc tion before the next harvest. How far this Will be the practical result, how ever, la a little difficult to determine because of the great migration to tho country- ,Tne 'population of Petro grad has decreased by .70 per cent."
