"m Meat: Russia and the Allies Russia crumbled away and failed the Allies largely through lack of food, accord ing to an American eyewitness. With plentiful reserves and resources virtually untouched, her people starved at home and at the front because there was- no adequate organization' to place food where if. was needed. Animals on the hoof were shipped thou sands of miles to the various.fronts, wasting transportation facilities required for other purposes. They arrived shrunken and ema ciated, to be killed and dressed amidst filth and confusion behind the lines. Half of those brought fromVSiberia, it is said, perished on the way; many more were unfit for food. On the other hand, the American packers turned live stock into meat in large sanitary plants located in t the producing sections, and shipped the product under refrigeration so that it reached the trenches in France 'in perfect condition, without waste. ' ' Says Our Authority : , "Had such facilities for cold storage transportation been available to the Russian supply committee as were placed at the disposal of the quartermaster of the United States by Swift & Company, there might have been a different story concerning Russia's part in the final drama of the war." ' A large-scale parsing industry would be an" asset to Russia, in wvar or in peace, as it has .proved to be to the United States. The cost of this large scale industry in the" form of profits is-only a fraction of a cent per pound of meat Swift & Company, U. S. A. P. M.
