no effect on the Beef Barons. Moth
ing but am indictment under the
criminal section of the antitrust law

by compelling the farmers and ranch
men to stand the loss on Cow stuff
that has been thrown out by the in
spectors, although the beef trust
buyers selected and bought the COWS
which were apparently sound and
healthy The stockgrowers have
taken alarm and some are holding
