Washington. Jan. fS-That the tend
ency toward centralizing 50 many
things at Washington is growing. IS
shown by the determined opposition
that has developed against the bill for
the Federal inspection of grain. The
Senate committee on agriculture now
holding hearings on the bill has re
ccived requests from boards Of trade.
commercial clubs and other business
mems organizations in every section
of the country. asking permission TO
appear before the committee in oppo-
.sition TO the bill. So far. only Boston
and Philadelphia have been heard
The middle west will have an OPP
portunity TO appear before the commit
tee next week. The chief criticism of
the bill is that ii lodges too much au-
.thOrity in the federal government. Tn
der it the secretary OF agriculture
would have an army of inspectors AT
work the year round 1t is admitted
by the opponents of the legislation
that the inspection system now follow
ed in some states is open TO criticism
but the point is made that the question
is one with which States can deal and
will deal. The demand for the Iegis-
lation comes from the farmers of the
Northwest who represent that. under
the present Inspection system they arc
Disseminated against. So far no de
mand for the legislation has come
from Indiana.
