For a few days the Palmer children
handled Tommy very carefully. But
they soon found out that he was per.
fectly harmless and a very good play
fellow.
They built him a pen under the big
rose bush and in the evening he had a
wonderful house and yard made of
Peters building blocks and put on the
rug in front of the crate. For as papa
sad, he was used to a warm climate.
Peter brought home strange boy
en- afternoon to show Tommy to MN.
The boy was lot older than Peter, and
Peter was anxious to make a good I'M
preston on him.
He left his visitor on the porch while
he went to look for Tommy. He wasn't
in his pen under the rose bush and he
wasn't in his house on the hearth rug.
Mamma wasn't to be found and Norah
didn't know where the ugly, little
beast" was, she said. ii
Peter heard the twins in the nur-
sery and went to see II they knew any
thing about him.
Nov isn't that the sweetest thing,
Patty was saying. "That pink dress
Just fits him. Now tie this sash on
him and let me see II can put this
sweet little hat on his horns"

Tommy from the dressmakers,

his hand in his gun pocket, wheeled
to face a second bandit who stood
beside the first Then Morrison's
hands went up.
Nobody spoke, but the leader of the
gang whistled and another masked
Mexican appeared at the door. At a
gesture from their leader, the two
extra intruders seized Morrison by
the arm.
But even as they did so the detec-

bullet struck the top Of the dor. The

. SAY CONTROL PACKERS
(Contributedl

< The packers are trying to raise a
fog concerning the Kenyon Bill by
making people think that it would
establish "license system AS, a
matter of fact, no such system is
involved in the bill. Would requir-
ing a reckless driver to give bond
for future good conduct create a
bonding system?" The idea is little
short of absurd. Obviously, the bond
would be required only Of driver
who was reckless and would not af-
feet those who did not drive automo-
biles, nor those who did not drive
them recklessly, says the Bureau of
Research and Publicity of the South
crn Wholesale Gr0cers' association.
The fact concerning the Meat
Packing industry is that it has been
found to be in the control of mo-
nopoly. This fact has been found by
The Food Administration and by the
Federal Trade / Commission. Also,
previous Government investigation,
|>iong before the Federal Trade Com
mission was established, has proved
the same fact.
The question is, how can we make
l tIlC k1uLl- 1IuoV Laws CICCJlVC
stamping out monopoly in the Meat
Packing Industry, and remove the
menace of great food trust? We
do not want to destroy the Meat
Packers, but they must be regulated.
T Past experience shows that if
has been almost impossible to convict
the trust, and when convicted the re-
suits have been small. Therefore
Senators Kenyon and Kendrick, in
drawing their bills, which are now
before the Senate Committee on Ag-
risulture, have endeavored to put
teeth in them-teeth which will be
effective in checking monopoly.
They believe that the investiga-
tions of the Food Administration and
of the Federal Trade Commission es-
tablish a prima facie case that mo-
nopoly control exists. Therefore
these Bills shift the burden of proof
to the Meat Packers. That means
that when the Secretary Of Agricul-
ture shall find that the Meat Pack
ers are disobeying the law, he may
take prompt action against them,
which action will be effective unless
the Packers can prove in the Courts
that the findings of the Secretary OF
Agriculture are wrong. To accomplish
this, the Bills provide that the Pack
ers must go through the form of TAX
ing out license, an which they agree
TO live up to the Anti Trust Laws,
If they are found to be in violation
if these laws, the Bills provide that
the Secretary of agriculture, may
either suspend or revoke the license
The Meat Packers may be appeal to
the Courts and have full hearing
before action is taken. Thus he is
provided with his HDay in Court"

sion designed to make it possible to
