CONGRESS OPENS DRIVE 4
ON "NIEATLESS DAYS"
Livestock Producer Will Tell
Senate Committee Food
Program Faults
Washington, March 20.

The drive against 'meatless days"
opened In Congress today.
After more than a week of inaction
the Senate Committee on Agriculture
today again opened its hearing on the
meat question. Thus far the entire
trend of the hearings has been to show
that "meatlcss days" are disrupting the
livestock market and are causing n loss
of production In meatstuffs. IL was ex-
pccted that todsy's testimony would
show the effects Of the meatless orders
from a new viewpoint.
Ed bassiter. meat producer. who
has been member of the meat division
or the food administration, was called
TO testify. Lasslter some time ago re-
signed his connections with the food ad-
ministration because he could not agree
with the food administration in the fix
ing OF prices on cattle and the restriction
OF tho meat market. lie was prepared
70 take tho stand today and show the
iaults he found. az a livestock producer,
10 the food administrators policies.
onicials of the food administration
declare that the Senate committee has
been misled in forming its opinion on
tho policy of the food administrators
meat division II is contended that the
largest and most influential producers
OF meats have entered into agreements
with the food administration.
ON the, other hand. members of the
committee take the stand that the agree
merits have been forced from the live
stock producers. who have agreed rather
than see their business interfered with
further.

REACTION IN RUSSIA
MENACE TO GERMANY
Nasl,ingion. MarCh Ha

HdsuInStOV,
Germany, row drawing on her Rus.
sian forces for west front re-enforce-
ments, may have TO shunt back some of
these troops before long to meet the
menace of a Slav uprising, according to
official information here today.
\ Information here is that the soviets
now realize that Russia has been bad
ly "double-crossed' by the Teuton. And
this is stirring a revolt, the reflection OF
which Is seen here in the Odessa and
Nkolaiev capture by the Bolsheviki..
Germany has thinned out her Russian
forces to the extreme, according to mill
\ tary data. She moved virtually all she
desired to before the Brest-litovsi
( peace conference, but she now finds 1t
h necessary to draw more from the east.
Realization of Germany's trickery IN
the east Is actuating Trotsky's latest
Efforts to rehabiitate the army, accord
ing to general Government opinion. And
military men point out that though his
I efforts can meet with only partial sue
| cess at present, revolution now would
cause much anxiety to the harassed Ger
fmans busy with the western line.
The Siberian problem has dwindled
out of sight since the west front strug-
gle started, particularly In view of the
Japanese declaration that no immediate
intervention Is planned. Niscount lshii,
the new Japanese ambassador. Will as
sumo his post here next month, and II Is
assumed he will take early opportunity
70 discuss a Far Eastern policy with
the President.
