CANNING LAW
IS VIOLATED
PACKERS HEAR
DR.. MeSSiCk Tells Tri-State
Association Sanitation is
Neglected by Some
PACK OFF 100000
CANS THIS YEAR

Sixty or more members of the Tri-
State Packers Association assembled
in Eden Hall this morning when the
annual meeting was held. Among the
speakers was Or William r. Messick,
State canning inspector who declared
that while the law recently passed by
the State Legislature was good one
& was being opposed by some Gamers.
The greatest question concerning the
cauneries, he said, was that OF santa
ton, and he quoted an article publish
+ ed by the U. S. Department of Agricul-
ture concerning the erecting of can
lneries.
Among the evils DR.. Messick spoke
of was that of the little attention paid
TO drainage, and said that in some
places, when he demanded that filth
accumulated in two or three years be
lcleaned up, the owner or operators
would herate him.
Among the other speakers at to-
days meeting, were DR.. Bigelow OF
the National Gamers Association
research department, Wilmington, and
Professor White, of the Maryland
Agricultural College. The members
Of the association held a conference
in the Hotel DUPONT last evening. and
the condition OF the pack was dis
cussed. No reference was made ia
this subject today, however.
II was said by members today that
this years pack would fall short by
5.000,000 cans. The Delmarvia PENN
sula also shows a decrease. although
the upper portion of this State pro-
dueed a good Yield
In his address this morning, DR.
Messick said in part:

Bt The united Press.


WASHINGTON, Nov. 6.-An open
break between the President and SEN
ators who are opposing his currency
plan, was regarded as almost certain to-
day Following conferences between GER
tain senators who have had the conf
dence of the administration, it was
stated that the President has refused to
approve the radical changes made in the
proposed law by the combination OF Re-
publicens and Democrats now in control
of the Senate banking committee. If
necessary tile last weapon available
party caucus-will be resorted to by the
President. He had long conference
with Senator Simmons today.
Simmons led the fight for the tariff
bill. in the upper house. After leaving
the President said:
Democrats cannot be expected to ac-
cept and support currency plan which
is reported out of the committee through
a combination which gives the Republi
cans the majority, And any bill opposed
lby majority Of the Democrats on the
committee cannot be assured clear sled
ding in the Senate
The President is reported to be con
siderably troubled over the apparent
open opposition of certain Of the Demo
cratic senators to his plan He has tried
to influence these members to stand for
the original GlassOwen bill, but has
failed. ifri''
1t was generally accepted today that
a ca,irus Of the majority members of the
Senate viii be called TO force the Presi-
dents ideas through the Senate Sim
mons admitted that this was being con-
sidered
Within FIVE minutes after Simmons
left, Senator Thompson of Kansas con
ferred with the President. He also said
that he believed hat the question
should be submitted to caucus.
"The time has arrived when | believe
patience has ceased to be a virtue,' said
the Kansas Senator. 81 think that this
currency question is one which should be
settled by the majority" H-a
The fight in caucus would be led by
Senator Simmons. 1t was confidently
pred ted today that the "insurgent"
element in the party would be voted
down five to one.
Senators Vardaman and Lewis confer
red with the President on currency.
Vardaman said that he thought the
matter should go to a party caucus, but
declared he would insist on an open eau
