for each violation of the so-called
twenty-eight hour law. The statute
requires carriers transporting live
stock from one state to another to
unload. feed and water and rest every
head of the livestock carried for a.
period of five hours after il has been
on the road for more than twenty
eight hours

so strong against them that attorneys
representing them are negotiating
with Secretary Wilson with a view
OF having the minimum penalty or
$500 imposed the understanding TO

with the law

secretary is disposed to agree because

gard the statute with impunity, but
