We have no objection to the simple dat

for the purpose mentioned. but In the an
scncc OF uniform legislation in other states
or federal law, the provision would mol
cover Western cold storage goods coming
here for consumption.

and the consumer are protected in permit

season Of production to the next season

The chief objection To both bills is the
artificial and inadequate limit of six months

the bulk OF cold storage goods be- carried
from seven 10 ten months time. at least
