Cattle Raiser Says Days of Cheap Meat Are Past Forever, Washington, March 81. — “Unless some one can find a way to repeal tac law of supply and demand, there is no remedy for increasing prices,” assert ed Samuel H. Cowan, of Fort Worth. Tex., counsel for the Cattle Raisers’ Association of Texas, before the sen ate food investigating committee. “The people of the United States need never expect cheap meat again.” Mr. Cowan told the committee tha’ in the future it would be necessary for cattle raisers to maintain as hig! or even higher prices in order to kee, pace with the increased cost of grazing land and feed. Like many other witnesses before the committee Mr. Cowan thought the present price of beef was due to the decreasing production and the increas. ing population. He sald cities were luring young men away from farms to such an extent that it was almost im- possible to get sufficient help. The only way, he said, to attract men to the country was to give them high wages which, with the advanced price of land and feed, made it neces gary for stock raisers to charge high for their cattle.
