WAR AND THE
CATTLE BUSINESS
COLLEGE STATION.—-The war
will tend to maintain or even raise
cattle prices in spite of the Increased
jrod.uCtion in prospect.
This situation will come about
nartly from increased consumer de.
•nandr and partly- beeatisfr of -HmHei-
nated demand for hides, but mostly
because hog prices are ekpected to
?o higher and thto will cause some
improvement In demand as people
‘.urh from pork to beef,
No large foreign outlet for the
United States is likely to develop
as a result of the war. Such a det
velopment would occur only if ship-
ping from Argentina and Australia
became very hazardous, j.
It does not appear probable that
dther domestic or foreign demand,
and price, will improve in the pres-
ent situation as much as during the
World War. At any rate, prices for
beef should not rise markedly in
1940.
This outlook for the cattle bus-
iness comes from the United States
Department of Agriculture's Bureau
of Agricultural Economics.
In commenting on the. report, Geo.
W. Barnes, animal husbandman of
the Texas A. and M. Extension Ser-
vice, pointed out that there are sev-
eral marked differences between the
present situation and that of 1914.
In the first place, beef production
In 1914, was at the lpwest level since
1902. In 1940 .supplies of meat are
expected to be the largest since
1924. Small decreases in beef
slaughter will be more than offset
by a considerable increase in thf
production of pork.
Prior to 1914, England imported
around 000 million pounds of beef
from Argentina: but shipping dif-
ficulties caused these imports to
drop to 221 million pounds in 1918
while United States exports went
up. Little, if any, increase in beef
exports is expected during the pres-
ent war.
For some reason, mahy cattlemen
believe that war will bring a strong
and rapid upswing in price. "That's
what happened in the World War,'"
they stiy. Actually, prices showed
only a moderate increase.-during the.
early days of the World War.
Here are the figures on the aver-
age price per 100 pounds of beef at
Chicago! 191.1—$8.25; 1914—$8.65;.
1915—$8.40, and 1916—$9,50. Rises
in lives,to.ck prices growing, out of
iVar-iime conditions did not get ,
underway until about the middle of
1.916, and that was largely due to
■industrial activity arid consumer
demand Til the United'States. . |
PROCLAMATION
THE WHITE HOUSE
WASHINGTON
EACH TEAR, at this season,
we gladly turn our thoughts
and our hearts toward the
American Red Cross—that instltu-
-ttoni wtrtoh Interprets so well our
Instinctive desire to extend,a help-
ing hand ot compassion and sym-
;pathy to those in distress. As our
officially recognized national volun-
tary relief agency, the Red Cross
through its democratic organization
and popular membership serves us
all in bringing relief to those in
need. -
We are proud that our Red Cross
knows no creed; race or color; that
It respects no boundaries as It goes
forth on ItS never-ending errands
of mercy, carrying prompt and
practical aid to afflicted humanity
everywhere. We know that we can
always rely upon it for speedy re-
lief in time of disaster, for combat-
ing disease, for fighting to elimi-
nate accident and death on. the
highway, in the water, in industry
and in the home, .and for training
our youth through the Junior Red
Cross. v
From the very outset of hostili-
ties, the Red Cross has been an-
swering urgent appeals for aid in
Europe without neglecting or for-
getting, its’, obligations of service
here at home. We know, however,
that as the, war continues the suf-
fering will greatly increase and need
for assistance will multiply many
times. So far the'Red Cross is fi-
nancing its relief operations from
voluntary contributions and its own
funds. To give it additional strength
tor its .expanding work we must
lend orir generous support both
through Contributions and member-
ship. . ■
During the period- from Armistice
Day to November ’30, the American
Red Cross will risk every adult cit-
izen of yur nation for this support
through individual membership. I
am confident the American people
will rally to "the appeal.
