Claim That Conditions Are Not
As Bad As Represented
ARE CLEANING UP, HOWEVER
It is Admitted, However, That Some
of the Suggestions in the Neill-Rey-nolds
Report Pertaining to Sanita
ry Conditions Have Been Complied
- With. . I ' ' i.
Washington, Special. Thomas ! E.
Wilson, representing the ' Chicago
packers, was heard by the . House
committee on agriculture on the Xeill
Reynolds report! regarding conditions
in Chicago packing houses. Mr. Xeill
was present at the hearing. Mr. Wil
son, who is an employe of the'Xelson
Morris Company, made a general de
nial of the existjeuce of conditions at
the packing houses as set forth in the
report. He began by inviting Ube
committee1 to coime to Chicago ah
spJend a week in personal -investigation
of conditions, that, he said, would
be the onty way j for members to gain
4 proper idea ot. ivhat the eonditions
really were. Some of tue suggestions
made in the report, he said, had ; al
ready been Complied with by the pack
ers, such as additional sanital'y facili-
xies. t
He
denied ah
oiutcly ' that
there
were any diseased cattle . or hogs
butchered for food. In every car-
! y
load of cattle or hogs, he said, some
were likely to.be dead and some dis-
eased. The dead or diseased hogs and
cattle were sentj M the ." Standard
Rendering . ('omijauy, . ' different
from the Standard Slaugh
tering Company.;; although the
two were likely to be confused in the
mind. The renderinr coninanv turned
the .dead and (diseased meat into
grease which --was a co-product "in the
manufacture of soap. . i
. Packers Court Inspection. ;
Supervision of every branch of the
packing business was not objected to
by the packers, said Mr. Wilson. "The
goveniment may; put 'on as many in
spectors" as it desires, he added, so
long as the packers do not have to pay
for them." He Said the packing busi
ness would be benefitted bv the in
speeton of the different branches from
the "hoof to the can." Good in
spection is whatjtlie packers, want, he
declared. j
In addition to! the question of who
shall be the judge of sanitation Mr.
Wilson said that the only other sug
gestion made by the Xeill-Reynolds
rrport to which; thff packers would
have any objection is the requirement
tnat the date ot banning be placed on
all cahned articles. lie said that
would serve no purpose except to in
jure the canned meat business. "Nat-
urally a buyer M ill choose ( he article
vwith the freshest ippiaring iabel."
said-' Mr.- YV llsonJ ' whe. as a matter
of fact, the canned nieaU does not , de
teriorate wita age." Tu Piieakiiiff of
the return of gohds be said that con-
iiguments are sometimes sent back to
the shippers because a hail has -been
driven through

aid. would cause that

imagine that th'a

instances for tiir to have gotten into
the can ar.d caused it to swell, lie de
scribed such cars as "swellers," ; but
said there is 110
danger ot tliese ever
being eaten and
added with a laugh:
"Xot the slijhtfst."
Xo one asked
him whj'.

"Xot unless the meat were accom
panied by che cicals such as it would
be suicide to bat," replied Mr. Wil
son. , He declarejl that the use of bad
meat had never) been attempted by
reputable packers, and that it. would
be suicide to their business. At this
point a recess was taken for luncheon.
