SHOWS WAY To
PACKER CONTROL
Federal Trade Commission
Sends Recommendations to
President Wilson
BY ROBERT ]. BENDER

UNITED Press Staff Correspondent
WASHINGTON, Aug. SHOWING to
break the power of the so-called
packers trust" the Federal Trade
Commission has recommended to
President Wilson that the railroad ad-
ministration be given a monopoly in
the transportation and distribution OF
meat.
The report of the commission, made
public by President Wilson today,
urges that the far reaching packers
influence on American business can be
e~masculated by transferring from the
packers used in the distribution OF
the following:
All stockyards In the country.
All so-called branch houses of the
packers used in the distribution
meats.
All stock cars and refrigerator cars
now owned by the packers.
All iceing plants located along the
railroads throughout the country.
This would leave the packers the
lone business of slaughtering n
skinning. Through control of the
transportation. storage and the distrfb-
uting facilities. the railroad admins
tration would break the alleged priori-
ties the packers trust grants its
members now In all phases Of the
business.

IN the national crisis. 1t presents an
outline for Il program of service to
humanity at q time when world condi-
tions are chaotic and unsettled, and in
many countries people of varied
tongues, but with common hunger,
are absolutely dependent upon Amer
lea for the food that will keep them
alive until they can beat their swords
into plow&harcs and pruning hooks
and produce food crops in fields where
for more than four years blood has
yum in the furrCWS and ruin has been
wrought, but where, through suffer
ing and death victory has been har-
vested.
THIS message is to be read also in
all secret society meetings held during
the week and at all meetings of wo-
mems organizations.
On Tuesday, December 3, which has
been designated conservation rally
day. it is expected that county food
administrators with the aid Of the wo-
men committees will arrange mass
meetings to be held in the largci'
towns Of each county. Programs for
these meetings have been prepared
ard sent out by the food adminiStra-
ton.
Wednesday, December 4, will be wo-
mems organization day, and Friday,
December &, conservation day in the
schools.
The Importance of State wide OBJ
Scrvancc Of conservation week for
world relief will be readily realized
when it is remembered that America
is pledged to send l7,500,00O tons Of
food overseas by July |, 1919, and
that this amount, while half as much
again as was sent during the past
twelve months, must be increased to
20 100000 tons because with France
and Belgium liberated and millions in
south central Europe clamorng for
food, the responsibility becomes
greater. The American harvest has
come and gone and whatever food is
exported must come from the surplus
and from what is saved, very largely
the latter.
This is the realization which the
food administration hopes to bring
home TO every individual man, woman
and child in this country during the
week Of December I.

Committee Plan Would Cut
Inheritance Revenue
$6O,00O,000
Spirits Levy Lowered
House $40 Impost Is Re-
duced to $2.2O, the
Present Rate
BY Theodore M. Knappen

WASHINGTON, Oct. 24.-The Senate
Finance Committee to-day changed the
entire nature of the estate tax and be-
fore it gets through with it will SO
after the rates that the Ways and
Means Committee will not be able to
claim any responsibility for the result
.ng title. The Finance Committee sub
stituted an inheritance tax title for the
estate title OF the Kitchin bill, rewrit-
zen throughout. the rates of taxation
belng left undetermined, but certain to
De about half of those imposed by the
House.
The House favored an estate tax be-
cause 1t deals in one operation with the
whole of an estate of a decedent. but
the Finance Committee favors taxing
each lnheritor of a beneficiary's share of
an estate separately. An exemption of
$4,000 is allowed to each beneficial in
terest, and larger allowance will be
made IN the case of wife or children.
The rates remain to be fixed, but be-
aween the lower figures which they
VIII be and the increased number
and total amount. of of exemp-
tions resulting from separate al
iowances, as compared with the $4,000
lump exemption under the House bill,
the revenue from inheritances may be
Ieuuce0 from an estimated amount of
$l1O,OOO,000 to as low as $4,000 900.
The proceeds of insurance policies are
exempted to the extent of s25 900, if
received by specified beneficiary, in
determining the gross value of the es-
tate. The House bill made the corre-
spending exemption $4,000.
The committee slashed the rate of
taxation on distilled spirits, used in
manufacturing, from $32Osto S2.2O, the
latter being the rate Of the present law.
The House fixed this rate at $40 and
the Finance Committee tentatively low
cred it to 1920. The change was made
in order to stimulate production of al
cohol for use in industry, munitions.
chemicals and medicines 1t is believed
that the reduced rates will tend to in
crease rather than to decrease revenue.
While the Finance Committee has
now completed its revision work in the
rough. except as to some sections here
and there, it will probably take until
the middle of next week to complete
the amended bill, incorporate new feat
ures. such as the proposed sales tax,
and polish it up for reporting to the
