with U. s. District Attorney Chas.

at the unprecedented rise in food

SABBATH said today he had authentic
information that there are combines
in food commodities such as potatoes,
eggs, and butter. He Is drafting a
bill which he believes would prevent
such speculation.
Warehouse owners and cold storage
men will be hardest hit in Sabath's
bill, which would regulate the length
of time food can be kept in storage.
He would also provide for congress

alton and a special permission for
district attorneys to push their fight.
Notices are being sent 200 cold stor-
age, warehouse and foodstuff men
here today. These will appear before
the investigation just begun here by
Clyne. He will endeavor to learn
whether there is a real shortage in
this years crops or whether prices
are being inflated by middle men.
Plans were being made today to urge
the passage of a state law by the
legislature this winter, prohibiting
speculation in butter, eggs and poul-
try. ..

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, Nov. 21.--
Frank Hagerman, acting as special

the decision can be had from the
high court before February 1. when
the law becomes effective, 1t was
said here today. .i
The proceedings filed by Hagerman
was not an answer to the Injunction
asked by the railways direct, but was
brought in the receivership case OF
the Missouri, Oklahoma and Gulf Ry.
The road is now in the hands of a
receiver.
The petition asks that the court
give a forthwith decision on the in
junction asked by the receivers
against the Adamson law and then
for an order directing the receivers
to join with the government in get

supreme court which convenes De-

By this short cut proceedings, the
government hopes to get a favorable
decision from the supreme court be-
fore the railway brotherhoods carry

The proceedings today will be the
first in the United States to be tried
out and much of the future action,
both of the government, the brother
hoods and the railways will depend
on the outcome.
