LONDON MEAT PROBE,
City to Hold Private Inquiry Into
Alleged American Control

Foreign Correspondence of The Star
LONDON, June 2j.-The cornora t;op oe
the city of London is holding a private
inquiry into the alleged control of the
English meat supply by the big Ameri-
can beef companies. 1t was proposed at
a recent meeting of the corporation that
the development of these comnanies he
clipped by placing limit upon the num-
Der of stalls they may hold in the Smith
Held market but upon adverse report nv
a special committee, it was decided moi
to interfere. o'
The committee repored that the condi-
tons of the business and the nature of
the trade have very materially changed
during the last ten years. and that the
tendency to eliminate the middleman. or
commission agent. and to concentrate
the trade into fewer hands had affected
the meat trade as we'll as other indus
tries.
The corporation decided. however. by
ninety votes to seventy. to have a priv
ate inquiry to ascertain which sectinos
of the market if any. are under Ameri-
can control. IT is asserted that many of
the Smithtield statesmen are financed by
what is called trust funds" but the
extent of the American Influence In
Smithfield is not known.

I'VE have about 800 miles to go before
we arrive at the south pole. Our object

lowing fifteen days food for billiards,
but we can go on much shorter rations.
If necessary. We can travel only in the

tween fifteen and twenty miles an hour
and carry about fifteen men each.

Our food has been carefully thought

Church Officers Statement.

Clifford P. Smith Of the committee on
publication of the Christian Sciene
Church. issued a statement later de-
claring that the practice of Christian
Science differed from the practice of
medicine and that it could not "be made
the same by law"
1t was announced that in all probability
the case will be appealed. The appeal
probably will be based upon dissenting
opinion rendered by Justice Bowling, say
ing that if Cole INDUCED simply in silent
prayer with his patients there was moth
ing unlawful in the act as. by so doing.
Cole might honestly believe he was .'as-
sisting the cure of the alleged ma ladies'
by placing his patients in the proper
spiritual attitude" toward their Maker.

Secretary Daniels Has Authorized
Retention of Popular Brands
for Men in Navy.

General satisfaction was expressed to-
came known that Secretary Daniels. con-
trary to expectations, had authorized the
retention of popular brands of tobacco
and articles which 1t had been rumored
would he denied admission to the COM
missary stores.
. The action of the Secretary, following
the enforcement of his order. abolshing
the officers wine mess. officially upset
what had become a general belief among
the enlisted men that they. too. would he
denied certain proprietary articles which
they had heretofore enjoyed. Under the
new order. not only will those articles
which have been carried in the commits
sary department be retained, but il is in
tended to assure greater latitude of
choice to the men by admitting addi-
tional brands of tobacco and personal
commodities. In announcing his decision.
Secretary Daniels said
Feels He Is Trustee.
II firmly believe that the enlisted men
of the fleet should be allowed to buy
what they want. | feel that in purcha sing
these supplies l am acting as trustee for
the men. and that it is my duty to make
this possible so far as lies in my power.
Under the excuse that the majority of
the men wished particular brands.
found that purchases had been confined
in many cases TO one brand of toilet
article or tobacco. Under the new plan
there will be a far greater variety OF
brands in each line. Commissary stores
ashore and afioat will offer the men as
nearly as possible the same variety to
select from that they would have in a
civilian store
