Fair play plea from livestock leaders on packers probe
The speaker defends the livestock producers amid anti packer controversy, insisting their side be fully presented. He traces opposition to 1916 efforts by producers who feared meat price control, argues five large packers remained in competition with 250 others, and cites profit losses, high cattle prices, and limited ability of legislation to raise cattle prices while lowering meat costs. A disinterested committee is urged to study the entire supply chain from calf to steak and publish a lasting course of action.
