WASHINGTON, July 2-The committee
appointed by Secretary Wilson, composed
Of DR.. A d. Melvin OF the bureau OF ami
NAL industry and George p. McCabe, soli-
citor OF the department which Investigated
the charges OF ]. f, Harms that the fed
eral meat inspection service at East St.
Louis was rotten and a farce" today re-
ported that the inspectors there were hon
est men and performing their duties effi-
ciently and that no meat had passed which
was unfit for human food.
The report, which was submitted to the
secretary today and approved by him. Is
an exhaustive presentation Of the case.
The committee states Its investigation was
most searching and that II failed to reveal
any trace Of dishonesty on the part OF any
employees at the East St. Louis station. 1t
is declared that while there is absolutely
no basis for the statements made by Mr..
Harms they will undoubtedly to a greater
or less extent reflect injuriously on the
foreign market for American meat food
products.
The report concludes as follows:
