Dairymen'S Position In
Secret Meeting.

MIX producers OF Maryland and Vir-
g'7ia strongly disapprove Of the atti-
tude Of Washington dairymen toward
the Health Department regulations con-
cerning dairy farlla.
Behind closed doors at 6l3 Louisiana
avenue today the farmers threshed out
the question Of the Uubeuculin test, and
though no statement was made for the
newspapers it was learned from individ-
ual members that this attitude had been
taken by the producers.
Instructions We're also given TO the
executive committee regarding the fight
to be carried on in Congress, and this
committee will meet Senator Thomas
Martin and Representative CarIin OF
Virginia at the Capitol Offices JOmOr-
row evening to complete plans for this
fight.
The secrecy today was indicative Of
the fact that the dealers have decided
TO rest on their own oars. Heretofore
they have invited dealers TO Join with
them, but today sentinels We're posted
and all comers were refused admission,
dealers, reporters, and visitors alike.
The farmers disapprove Of the charges
made by dealers against the District

HOPE FOR BALLOONS
HOURLY WEAKENING

OTTAWA, Oct e5.-This city is today
the base Of a number of expeditions
that have set out in search Of the miss
ing balloon America II, and Pilot Alan
r. Hawley.
It is considered significant that not
one definite clue as 10 the probable
whereabouts Of the balloon has been
received The belief is growing hourly
that the missing air craft either dropped
into Lake Huron or is now lost in some
Canadian wilderness. from which not
even the aerOnauts themselves can es-
cape.
Edmond Stratton. representing the
Aero Club Of America. is in charge Of
the main relief expedition and has is
sued a DOminiOn-wide call for assist
ance.
The federal and provincial govern
ments of Canada are cooperating

While Vice President James s. Sher-

This morning the President spent sew

He would have found time. however. 10

presented himself at the Executive
Offices.
There is a strong suggestion in the
minds Of many who know the Vice
President well, that the distinguished
New Yorker purpOSely avoided calling
upon the Chief Executive. It is re-
called in that connection that the letter
written by the President 70 County
Chairman GriscOm, at the time the tenn
pOrary craftsmanship fight was on. would
not have a tendency to make the re-
latiOns between the President and Vice
President any more cordial.
