PRICE TERRORISM
LAID TO PACKERS
Senator Capper Charges Stop
page Of Livestock Buy
ing to Halt Probe.

Virtual packer control Of live stock
markets is responsible for heavy
losses to producers during the last
ten days, Senator Capper Of Kansas,
said today.
This sensational market break, the
worst since 1907, was cited by Capper
as reason why legislation along the
lines proposed in the Kenyon and
Kendrick bills should be enacted by
Congress.
Although not charging the big
packers with deliberately causing
these heavy losses to stock raisers, he
characterized the sudden stopping of
buying by the packers as a scare" to
halt the movement for legislation to
regulate the meat industry.
While there is probably no proof
that the big packers actually con-
trolleG the situation, I cannot but be-
iieve that they have been a factor"
he said.
Didn't Try to Help.
81 think the market would have
been better on in such an emergency
IL the big five did not have practical
control They did nothing to brace
up the market ana can see no good
reason for a decline to the extent we
have just witnessed.
II am naturally disappointed that
a scare Of this kind should be thrown
out at a time when it would tend to
arrest the movement for regulatory
legislation"
The National Consumers League
declared that the packers, with their
warehouses bulging with food, could
AFFORD to cease buying just as the
Senate hearings on the Kenyon and
Kendrick bills got under way.
The farmers of the country are be-
ing made to suffer for the sins of the
packers as in times past" the Ma
tional Consumers League stated.
FnFmeFs Frightened.
This time the penalty has been i'm
posed for a different reason. Just as
hearings were started on the Kenyon
Kendrick bills to regulate the pack
ers, a most unprecedented drop in
prices paid for hogs and cattle took
place. So last week Washington was
flooded with cattle raisers, farmers, |
retail dealers and independent pack |
ers to beg Congress to put a stop to !
all agitation. Meanwhile the packers !
warehouses are bulging with enough |
food to carry their business for the |
coming winter and they can afford to |
cease buying for a while"

y. F. Lining, n1achinist, 641 E ST s. E., says. I
think the jarring and joltng Of the cars on which
l used to work weakened my kidneys and caused
backache. Many times, when tried to step from the
car, sharp pain caught in the small Of my
back and almost doubled me upl The action Of
my kidneys was irregular, I had pains in the back
of my neck and dizzy spells, when everything
seemed in blur. heard about Doan's Kidney
Pills, and several boxes, procured from F. P Well
ers Drug Store, brought very satisfactory results.

Mrs. Kate Boyle, 1920 v street southeast, says:
"Some time agoimy kidneys were out Of order and
I had dull baekaches. Severe catches and pains
in the region Of my. kidneys made it hard for me
to get about and my kidneys acted irregularly.
Others of my family had used DOan's Kidney Pills
with such good results, so tried them They
proved equally as good in my case, and soon
was feeling like myself again-free from the aches
and pains"

Czecho-Slovaks and ougo-siavs
Nothing was said according to com
mitteemen, concerning the probable date
of completing the peace treaty, nor of
the president s final return from Eu-
rope.
Following the dinner, which lasted
from p. IN. until nearly 10 p. m. the
president, without any long preliminary
statement, invited the guests to ques-
ton him So many questions were ask
cd that the session did not end until
just before midnight. Members declared
the president did not present any argu-
ments. He simply answered inquiries,
usually BY stating his own view OF what
the effect of specific provision would
be. There was an entire absence of the
controversial spirit, according TO COM
mittee members.
Senator Brandagee, republican, took
a leading part in the questioning Sena.
tor Hitchcock, chairman OF the foreign
relations committee, asked few ques-
tions, as did Knox and Lodge. These
three are scheduled to address the SEN
ate this week on the league of nations.
Chairman Flood of the house com.
mittee, in a formal statement following
the conference, said:
81 am heartily in favor of league
and since talking with the president am
heartily in favor Of the constitution rs
presented. 1 see nothing in it affecting
the sovereignty Of this country or the
right to control its domestic affairs or
anything that weakens the Monroe uoc-
trine.'
Moral Force is Weapon
Members of the house committee car
iied away from the white house con-
ference the distinct impression that
the "moral forcen is almost the only
weapon of the proposed league, they
said today.
The president was said to have stat
ed emphatically that this country could
rot be forced into a war without ats
own consent, and that the United
States is not bound otherwise than
morally to accept the league decisions
as applied to us.
Enlarging upon his views of our
"moraln obligations the president was
said to have told his visitors that he |
believed that the sentiment Of this |
country was for the protection of the |
small nations. such as Poland and |
Czeeho-Slovakia, until they could stand |
alone" even to the extent of the use |
of armed forces if that became neces-
sary. Under this view, it was pointed |
out by members of the house committee
that it was question of our "going it |
alone" or as members of a league.
