lar to Springfield to prove that they
are not In a trust.
A Trust has no more standing In
law In Illinois than Burglar. Both
exist In violation Of the law and both

There will be some music over the
Beef Trust when the next Illinois Leg
islature meets.
The Beef Trust controls the food
supply Of the American people.
