56 Our Dumb Animals 1 (1923-1924)

handle is hein.journals/animals56 and id is 1 raw text is: 1823 THE GEO. T. ANGELL CENTENNIAL 1923 OUR DUMB ANIMALSY THE GREAT CRUELTY IT STILL GOES ON-THE NEEDLESS SUFFERING INFLICTED UPON OUR FOOD ANIMALS IN SLAUGHTER-HOUSES OF THE UNITED STATES. IT WILL GO ON UNTIL EITHER PUBLIC OPINION DEMANDS THAT IT CEASE OR SOME METHOD OF SLAUGHTER IS FOUND THAT WILL KILL AS RAPIDLY AND ECONOMICALLY AS THE PRESENT BRUTAL METHOD BUT PAIN- LESSLY, OR UNTIL THE DECREASE IN THE CONSUMPTION OF MEAT AWAKENS THE PACKING INDUSTRY TO THE FACT THAT MEN AND WOMEN WILL NOT EAT THE FLESH OF ANIMALS KILLED WITHOUT REGARD FOR THEIR SUFFERING. THE LONG LINE HEADED FOR THE SHAMBLES MOVES ON NIGHT AND DAY. IT NEVER STOPS. MORE THAN A DUARTER OF A MILLION FOUAUFOOTED ANIMALS ARE BUTCHERED EVERY DAY IN THE YEAR, INCLUDING HOLIDAYS AND SUNDAYS, WITH SO LITTLE REGARD FOR THEIR SENSIBILITY OR CAPACITY FOR SUFFERING THAT ONE WONDERS IF THEY ARE THOUGHT OF BY THEIR BUTCHERS AS IN ANY SENSE WORTHY OF CONSIDERATION SAVE FROM A FINANCIAL POINT OF VIEW. THIS SEEMS A HARD THING TO SAY ABOUT A GREAT INDUSTRY, BUT IT IS SAID ONLY AFTER YEARS OF FAMILIARITY WITH THE TREATMENT OF CATTLE, SHEEP, AND SWINE IN THE SLAUGHTER-HOUSES OF THE UNITED STATES. IF YOU WOULD STOP IT, SEND US YOUR NAME AND ADDRESS.
