SHE is HAVING EXPERTS FIND
SOME SUBSTITUTE FOR
MEAT MEANWHILE.
(By United Press Leased Wire)

NEW YORK. Jan. pa mass
meeting of housewives in New
York will be called for. next week
by Mrs. Anita Comfort Brooks, the
most active ciubwoman in New
York. to institute a boycott against
meat that will be world wide in its
scope.
The exact date for the meeting
has not been set. The boycott,
Mrs. Brooks proposes. will not be
confined to meat, as. has been the
case in most cities. Mrs. Brooks
will urge the housewives of New
York to abandon, as far as possible
the use of all foodstuffs that are
controlled by trusts.
To take the place of such food
Mrs. Brooks has experts at work
on comparative table of com
pensative foods, which offer just
as much nutrition as meat and are
not controlled by monopilies. 49,.
Plans to have the Central FEEDER
ated union, with 10000 union mem
hers, sanction meat boycott, is

While not saying so in plain Eng
fish. the attitude of the Stanton
Packing Co., which furnishes the
bulk of Spokane's meat supply, as
given forth by its manager, in the
absence of Stanton himself is that
of 'the people be damned"
He invites a meat strike and says
that if the people will but pay their
meat bills the packers will take
~
their chances on strike.
Mr.. -Overhoit was not exactly
sore when he was seen by Press
reporter at the company's office in
Bernard street, but he was evil
IDENTIFY little out of patience, and
proceeded to tell what he thought
of the meat consuming public of
Spokane, that by virtue of its pat

Of his interview on the proposed
discontinuance Of the use of meat
In Spokane. as a protest against the
high cost of living. Mr.. Overholt
said:
This talk of the high price of
meat is all bosh. It exists solely in
the newspapers. Meat is as cheap
today as II was three years ago, and
you can get more meat for the
money today than you did a year
ago.
s'Let them declare a meat strike.
If' the people whom the butchers
have carried all winter will pay up
their bills We can afford it and will
enter no objection.
why do they pick On the butch
ers? Everything else has gone up.
bHt the butchers seem to come in
fer all of the hard knocks.
IF the people looked after their
business as closely as we do, they
would have money to buy meat for
cash, and we could make a better
mice. Instead of that they will
spend $500 in one afternoon and a
might to hear Harry Lauder or
crowd theater for nights to hear
Blanche Walsh.
There is a scarcity of cattle in
the country. The supply has de-
creased and the demand has in
creased. which means still higher
prices before the limit is reached
Everyone wants to live in town and
desert the ranch. hence the short

WHICH CENT? EMAN

Division street and First avenue at

Sevendos hold up and attempt to
rob Frank 6aeeeIlievi?
That is the question which re-
mains unanswered in a peculiar
case in which the arrests were
made by Officer Pike on Division
street near the n. p. crossing. Both
men insist that it was the other
fellow who did the holdup stunt,
and it seems to be a case of the

Italy.

BECAUSE Of
HATRED
(By United Press Leased Wire)

CHICAGO, Jan. 22.-Scores of
women and children of foreign
birth, fearing that one of the big
gas tanks in South Chicago had
Flown up and that their homes
might be destroyed, fled into a
driving snOwstorm late tonight
when a mysterious dynamite eXplo-
sion destroyed a car loaded with
structural iron and damaged four
others.
Threats against the steel trust
uttered by foreign workers in the
big South Chicago steel mills,
which have reached the ears of the
police, lead them to believe that
the dynamite was placed beneath
the car by some person who sympa-
thized with the men who are strik
ing against the trust in the east.

injured above the ankle, laying the
flesh bare to the bone. In that con-
dition she walked up to the track,
away from the burning car, and
sat at the side of the track for five
hours awaiting the coming of ply

her leg that the physicians needle
would not reach across it, and ]

zELAYA IS MOVING
ON TO BRUSSELS
(By United Press Leased Wire)

MEXICO CITY, Jan. 22.-Former
President Zelaya of Nicaragua to-
day positively announced he would
leave within the next two weeks
for Brussels. He said he had de-
cided to go after receiving letters
from his wife. saying she consid-
cred Brussels more desirable as a
place to live.
AS a matter of fact, it is be-
lieved that the real consideration
in his determination is hint by
the Mexican government that he is
not wanted here, for fear he may
be assassinated.
A man was arrested here tonight
on a charge of completely in a plot
to kill Zelaya, and three others
are under surveillance. The plot
is said to have been formed by
agents of President Cabrera of

of man who had not been con
cerned in the melee, and began to
maui him about a trifle. Up rose
the special officer and threatened
to convey the whole bunch to the
police station.
Saving the situation for every
body but himself, the real culprit at
this point made a full and COM
plete confession" He forked out a
couple of simoleons for the cost of
the window, and with this happy
elimination of the row, the special
officer withdrew his threat, and
everybody proceeded on their way
to the beds which had been waiting
for them so long.

Although the storm played havoc
everywhere, northwestern Pennsyl-

The snow drifts quickly choked the

Heavy rains preceding the snow
