If Beveridge Amendment Fails Meat Inspection Debate at White House
Washington May 29 The White House hosted a key talk on Senator Beveridge Indiana meat inspection amendment to the agricultural appropriation bill. President Roosevelt, Senator Carter of Montana, and Prof Charles B Neill discussed packer abuses. Carter read a statement noting opposition from packers. The president warned he may release reports if the amendment is defeated, but would rather enact a law mandating inspection. Beveridge defended the measure as carefully considered and practical, proposing packers pay inspection costs around five cents per beef carcass and three cents per mutton carcass, totaling about 1.59 million dollars yearly.

It contends lost tickets are not replaced or refunded and that the ticket is easy and economical to use if allowed in this state. It asserts interstate law cannot be restricted for lack of jurisdiction and denies the ticket is unreasonable or annoying.
