S.TOCONTROL
PACKING PLANTS
Offer to Put Business Under
Licensing System is APP
proved by Hoover.

Washington, Sept. l4.-Govern-
ment regulation of the packing indus
try will be the next move of the food
administration. A voluntary offer Of
representatives of the packers to put
their plants under licensing system
made to Herbert Hoover, the food
administrator, at a conference here
today, was acted upon and plan OF
control will be drawn up shortly.
The packers, numbering about a
score, came to Washington to talk
with Mr.. Hoover about the threatened
meat shortage and the subject of riS-
ing prices. They are of one opinion
that prices can be brought down little
unless determined effort is made 10
increase the production of live stock.
The great export demand, they be-
lieve, will maintain prices at high lev
el until long after the war has ended.
A licensing system for packing
houses was provided in the food con-
troll bill. Putting it into operation
will 90 far toward eliminating hoard
ing and speculation and stabilizng
prices, is believed by food admins
tion officials. The packers will con-
fer soon with cattle growers to discuss
the food administrations plan for re-
moving herds from the west to better
feeding districts in the east and south.
Increased production of live stock
is military necessity, Carl Vroomah
assistant secretary of agriculture, de,
clared in a statement after the pag
ers' meeting ended. "The keeping Of
more live stock was highly desirable
before the war" said Mr.. Vrooman-
Now it is national necessity, first
because of the terrible dearth Of
meat animals, not only in this coun-
try, but throughout the world; see
Ond, because no further waste of
leeds must be permitted, and the only
hing that can prevent waste on the
farm is the production OF more live
stock.
''The fact that keeping more live
stock is a military necessity does not
mean that il is any the less a good
business. The farmer should not jose
his golden opportunity to cash in his
waste forage at war prices"

received here from England that the
Atlantic transport liner Minnehaha,

Liberty" Engine in Final
Tests Is Success, Secre-
tary Baker Announces.
INVENTED In HOTEL ROOM
American Birdmen, Equipped
With Super-machines, Will
Fill Skies Of France.

Washington, Sept. 14.-The Lib
erty motor, the aeroplane upon which
the United States is relying to defeat
the Germans on the battlehelds of
France, has passed its final test and
is complete and gratifying success,
Secretary Baker announced. In his
statement Secretary Baker told how
all the best brains and business of
American motordom had contributed
its secrets and achievements to the
government to produce the Liberty
motor which is to carry the thousands
of American airplanes over Germany.
Probably the war has produced no
greater single achievement" the
statement says, and relates for the
first time the story of the construction
OF the new motor which has added a
thrilling chapter to American engi-
neering records.
Secretary Baker says the motor is
now the main reliance of the United
States in the rapid production in large
numbers of high power battle planes
for service in the war;"
Fer obvious reasons specifications
of the motor, details of its perform
ance under tests and arrangements
made for its production in quantity
are withheld. In conclusion, howev-
er, Mr.. Baker says:
Progress has already been made to-
ward organizing the industry for the
manufacturing the new machines and
deliveries will begin in a comparative
ly short time"
Back of that announcement stands
the fact that American aviators in high
powered American built machines
will begin to appear in large numbers
on the fighting lines next year.
Secretary Baker coupled with his
formal request to the
press of the country to refrain from
publication of any information regard
ing the Liberty motor other than that
included in his statement.

Minister Told to Go at Once
Berlin Expected to Place
Onus on Him.

Buenos Ayers, Sept. 14.-The
downtown section of the city was the
scene of the widest disorders We'd
nesday night in connection with the
great anti German demonstrations in
which thousands of Argentinans took
part. Many of those in the mobs car
ried firebrands and as a result scores
of buildings were set on fire and sew
eral blocks of German business hous-
es were destroyed.
Among the structures attacked were
the German club, one. of the finest ed
i6ces in the city, and the building Of
the German daily La Union. AS fast
as the fires in these buildings were
extinguished they were started again.
Mounted patrols and the entire fire
department kept rushing from one
part of the city to another in an at
tempt to quell the riots and put down
the flames. In several instances po-
lice who were attempting to shoot at
those welding torches were set upon
by the crowds and disarmed.
The German legation and German
newspaper buildings were stoned.
There was serious rioting and mount
ed police charged the mobs in the
fashionable Avenida Florida.
The Argentine government sent to
the legation passports to be delivered
to Count Karl Won Luxburg, the Ger
man Minister in Buenos Aires, involv-
ed in the scandal over transmission OF

COUP WAS A BIG FAILURE

General Korniloff' S rebellion against
Premier Kerensky apparently has
been quelled, like other attempts that
have been made to overthrow the pro-
visional government in Russia. Off
cial reports from Petrograd say that
Korniloff's headquarters has surren-
dered and that Xorniloff himself de-
sires conditionally to place himself in
the hands of the authorities. The
government, however, demands his
abject capitulation.
Meanwhile troops that had answered
the call of revolt issued by Korniloff,
continue to desert his ranks and re-
turn to the government fold, declar-
ing that they were misled by Korni-
lofts professed aims.
Kerensky has been confirmed by
the cabinet as commander-in-chief OF
the army and will have with him as
chief of staff in his prosecution of the
war against the Teutonic allies, Cen
eral Alexieff, former commander-in-
chief and one of the most brilliant
officers in the Russian army. Added
strength is also expected to be given
Kerensky's rule by the appointment
of new military officials for the dis
trict and city of Petrograd.
