PACKERS PREDICT
SERIOUS FAMINE IN
MEAT SUPPLY SOON
CONDITIONS MUST BE CHANGED
AND REMEDIES ARE POINT
ED OUT.
HINTS GIVEN TO THE SOUTH
On the Small Farmers of the Nation
Is Placed Most Responsibility.
Rainse Corn Instead of Cotton and
More Cattle and Hogs.

CHICAGO, Sept. 23.-The response
bility of averting a future meat fam
Inc was put up to small farmers by
speakers at the eighth annual conven
tion of the American Meat Packers
today. All the speakers agreed that
If the decrease in meat production OF
the last ten years is not stopped the
question of the meat supply for the
people of the United States will be
most serious.
Among the remedies suggested by
the speakers were:
Every small farmer should raise at
least two beef steers year to offset
the decreased production of the great
ranches Of the west.
The remaining ranges should be cut
up in small farms to put all farmers
on an equal footing.
Development Of the hills of New
England with their bountiful springs
and prevailing shade as a beef pro-
ducing country.
Substitution Of corn for cotton in
the Southern states and the conse.
Quent development Of the cattle and
hog production.
The report of the executive COM
mittee sounded the first note of the
danger of famine.
The American meat packing house
situation and that of consumers of
meat food products in this country
are both in a condition more preca-
rious than at any other time in our
history" the report stated.
I'VE are facing conditions in the
production of meat food products
which would have been thought inn
possible ten years ago. The short
age Of live stock, which has been i'm.
pressed upon US, as packing house
producers, for several years has been
intensified during the last year Our
population is growing at it's normal
rate. We have passed the point
where demand has overtaken produc.
ton and we are now on basis
which shows tina demand exceeds the
supply of meat food products to such
an extent that we have abnormally
high prices for meat food products.

IMPERIALISM

TRY, IS OBSERVATION OF
uNTERMYER.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 23-"We are
so dangerously near to Imperialism
in finance in this country today, that
this bill is needed to lead us away
from it,"
This terse observation was made
by Samuel Untermyer before the SEN
ate committee on banking and cur
rency today in reply to a statement
by Senator Hitchcock that the Glass
Owens measure looks towards the es-
Enlistment of financial imperialism.
Mr.. Untermyer was an enlightening
witness. He gave the committee
more concrete information than it has
been able to gather from any one
other person who has appeared be-
fore it. In most emphatic terms he
gave his approval, although he sug-
gested minor points could be
strengthened and improved
IT want this committee to under
stand" said Mr.. Untermyer, that
without qualification of any sort, am
a champion of the principles upon
which this measure is based. BY

LATEST THING
IN VACCINATION
UNDER THE ARM THE PROPER
PLACE, SAY PARIS PLY
SlCiANS.

PARIS, Sept. Fashionable
physicians have now decided that the
best place to vaccinate girl, baby
or otherwise, is under the arm. Vac
cination on the arm was long ago
dispensed with, owing to the disfigur-
ing marks shown in evening dress.
Then it became the fashion to vacci
nate girls on the thigh, but owing to
new rulings in different European
countries, this practice had to be dis
continued. too. Russia, Turkey and
the Balkan states, orrather their from
tier representatives, now demand oc-
cular inspection of the vaccinate
marks, and naturally ladies object to
the exposure.

Major Mallery's body crashed head

during the rush hours when thousands
were pouring from subway exist and
