Why Compare Beef and Coal Profits?
0
Swift & Company has frequently stated that its profit on beef
averages only one-fourth3 of a cent a pound, and hence has practically
no effect on the price.
Comparison has been made by the Federal Trade Commission of
thi§. profit with the profit on coal, and it has pointed out that anthracite
coai operators are content with a profit of 25 cents a ton, whereas the
beef profit of one-fourth of á cent a pound means a profit of $5.00 a ton.
The comparison does not point out that anthracite coal at the
seaboard is worth at wholesale about $7.00 a ton, whereas a 4on of
beef of fair quality is worth about $400.00 wholesale.
"To carry the comparison further, the 25 cent profit on coal is 3y2
per cent of the $7.00 value.
The $5.00 profit on beef is only 1^4 per cent of the $400.00 value.
The profit has little effect on prite in either case, but hasjess effect
on the price of beef than on the price of coal.
Coal may be stored in the open air indefinitely; feeef must be kept
in expensive coolers because it is highly perishable and must be
refrigerated. —-■
Coal is handled by the carfoad or ton; beef is .delivered to retailers by the
pound or hundred weight.
Methods of handling are vastly different. Coal is handled in open cars; beef
must be shipped in refrigerator cars at an even temperature.
Fairness to the public, fairness to Swift & Company,' fairness to the packing
industry, demands that these indisputable facts be considered8. It is impossible to
disprove Swift Ac Cdmpany's statement, that its profits on beef are so «¿pall as to
have practically no effect orf prices. . •
