PROTEST AGAINST "N0 FLOUR" RULff
 MAY BE VOICED
Wholesalers, Retailers and Grain Men to Have Con-
 ference Tonight.

Protest against the virtually total prohibition of the sale of white flour in Pine Bluff and JeffersCn county may be voiced tonight at a metin2 of wholesale and retail grocers and grain men at the chamber of Com merce.
 The meeting, which was called by IF. s. Reynolds of C. M. Ferguson X Son, was noh called for the purpose of registering a protest against the flour rule, but to confer with the County Council of Defense and M. c. Hollis, food administrator, on the various regulations regarding food, The conference will begin at S:30 o. clock and E. B. Bloom will be chair man.
 It is said that many retailers have complained of being hurt by the "no white flour rule," and some of the wholesalers are said to be losing GUS toners who are getting their flour from wholesalers in other cities. It is not improbable that some of the merchants may seek modification of the rule at the meeting tonight.
 "The object of the meeting" NIT Reynolds said last nigh, is tC talk over the various food regulations with the food administrator. Many o1 the retailers do not know Mir. 'Hollls personally. They want to get ac quainted with him and they want tC know more specifically what he wants them to do. It is just a "eat-together meeting"

CONGRESS KEEPS ITS HANDS OFF
 AIRCRAFT PROBE Chamberlain Will Not Inter fere With Investigation
 by Hughes. PRESIDENT WINS
 OPPONENTS OVER Hughes Promises Results of Inquiry Shall be Given to the Public Re- gardleSs of Result of Criminal
 or Ci,iI Proo'edings.

Washington, May 22.-There will be no controversy in the senate ovei the military committees war inquiry plans to which President Wilson ob- jected, and the department of justice investigation of the aircraft product ion, directed by Chas. E. Hughes, vii proceed without having it's patf crossed by congress.
 Developments came quickly today in situation which had threatene' an open fight on the floor of the sen ate and in which administration lead CTS saw the possibility of two simul- taneous inquiries into all phases ol the government aviation program.
 Reach Compromise
 First, compromise was reached under which the resolution of Senate Chamberlain, authorizing investiga- tions of various branches of war acti- vities,, including aviation, was passec by the senate after being stripped of language which the president has con structed as virtually constituting 8 military committee on the conduct ot the war.
 Soon afterward Senator Chamber lain received letter from Attorney General Gregory, including one from Mr. Hughes in which letter statec that the work he has undertaken a' President Wilson's request would be embarrassed by a parallel inquiry.
 Will Shield No One
 Mir. Hughes outlined his idea o1 how the departments investigation should be carried one, declaring tha it should go into the whole history of aircraft production since the wal began and that a statement of results should be given to the public, regard less of whether basis was found fol either criminal or civil proceedings ii the court. This letter for time seem ed to threaten new conflict. Mem bers of Mr. Hughes statement ano it was tentatively agreed tha" the subcommittee on aviation should con fine it's activities to looking over the existing situation on all that ha: gone before the deparmen of justice.
 Another meeting will be held in day or two to discuss the matter fur ther.

 tIrasrs PcrShing's Men.

With the American Army in France, May 70 Washington's announcement that the combined front held by thc American cXpeditionarN forces in France covers greater distance than that held by BrlGium and takes third rank. has inspired the men in the American ranks as probably nothing else could.
 The announcement was published in newspapers reaching tAe various zones in which there are Americans today, and the result is that every one of the "doughboys' is walking just a little strai9hter and there is just a little more snap in his salute.
 Staff officers and certain other of ficerS have known the fact for some time. but the average American sol dier.s billeted in some out-of the way French village and living where the shells fly, does not gel chance to know what is going on outside of his own little sphere.
 The announcement was the sole topic of conversation tonight in dug outs. trenches and billets. The men now are looking forward to the time when there may be an announcement that the Americans are occlryin@ the second places.

HOW TQ. TREAT EYE. DISEASES OF CATTLE

A recent report of serious eye dis eases of cattle in Texas and New Mexico was published, which has al- so created some uneasiness on the part of cattlemen in Arizona. f-
 Prof. w. s. Cunningham, Assistant Animal Husbandman of the Univer- sity of Arizona, has been consulted by number of stockmen lately and he makes the following public statement:
 "There is disease affecting the eyes of cattle prevalent in the south ern part of the State. There have been many reports of this. among range cattle and dairy herds. This disease is called infectious keratitis", or pink eye of cattle, and has been present every summer for several years in certain localities of Arizona. It affects cattle of all ages, but main ly young cattle during the summer, pollen is present, and it is infectious or contagious.
 "The symptoms of the disease are watery discharge from the eyes, the eyelids become swollen and red, and are held partly closed to shut out the sunlight, a red spot appears in about the center of the eye which later turns white or yellowish white in color, and the entire colored portion of the eye becomes clouded or whitish in appearance. The pupil of tho eye may bulge out to a considerable de- gree because of the eye lens being swollen. In some cases this swelling is so great that the eyeball may burst and cause permanent blindness. All cattle effected with this disease are temporarily, partially or totally blind, but they regain their eyesight in mbst cases. It usually takes several weeks to effect cure, and during that time vigorous treatments should be ap- piled.
 "For those who cannot convenient ly consult or call a veterinarian the following remedies are given: First wash out the eyes we'll with a satur- ated solution of boric acid, then twice each day place into the eye four or five drops of 20 per cent solution of This treatment should be kept up persistently until recovery.
 "The above treatment, if followed will cure, practically all cases of the disease"

CATTLE SAVED
 FROM BLACKLEG

Dr. R. H Williams, Animal Hus- bandman, of the University of Arizona in an interview gives the following statement concerning the prevalence and control of blackleg in Arizona:
 "Blackleg is widely spread over Arizona, and causes the loss of thou sands of cattle annually. These losses may be absolutely prevented by vac- cinating all cattle under 2 years of age. With gentle animals the vaccine, which may be secured free from the State Veterinarian, Phoenix, or the Bureau of Animal Industry, Washing ton, D. C., can be used to advantage. Commercial companies prepare this samb vaccine and sell it as pellets at 9c to 10c per dose. The pellet vac, cine is more easily prepared and ad- n4nistered than the freel but either of these vaccines should prove satisfac- tory if applied every six months until the animals are IS months old.
 Range cattle are usually wild and handled with difficulty, so that it is considered more feasible to use sim gle treatment for vaccinating them.
 ''There are several companies pre- pairing a special germ-free vaccine which renders the animals permanent ly immune. Treatment with this kind of vaccine costs from 35c to 50c a dose, but calves may be treated when they are aa young as 3 months, and this renders them permanently inf mune for the rest of their lives. An-. other advantage of this serum is that. it gives the animals immediate pro- lection from the time of application. and sonte claim that the serum may have curative value if given in the early stages of the disease. -%
 "It is anticipated that most of the range stockmen will use this new serum. The losses caused by black leg in Arizona are only second to that. of starvation. There are possibly 30,000 head of young stock that die annually in Arizona from this disease alone, andI the loss amounts to fully q million dollars a year. There is ab- solutely no need of sustaining this loss is stockmen will vaccinate their animals.
 Another important consideration in overcoming the blackleg is that of burning all the carcasses of animals that die of this disease. If carcasses are burnt the germs which cause the disease will be destroyed, and no doubt in time will be exterminated. Stockmen should cooperate in an ef- fort to eradicate this most trouble some complaint from Arizona ranges"
