Beveridge Amendment Aimed at Meat Packing Reform
President Roosevelt plans to urge immediate passage of the Beveridge amendment to regulate packing houses with strict sanitary rules and federal meat inspections. He promises to veto substitutes and may push Congress with a second message if packers drag feet, signaling potential limits on shipments to Europe if rules are not followed. Beveridge and Reynolds reports are central to the push, with confirmed fines and inspection funding to be packer paid.
