being what it termed 'shoddy," This is
old wooden material, tailors' clippings,
etc, put through a special machine
which tears them apart and reduces
them to fibers. Such goods have many
uses. 1t is stated by WOODEN manu-
facturers that the best grade of worsted
shoddy, which,is Of long fibers, is supe-
rior to a low grade, short staple, new
or virgin wool; also that it is impos-
stble to get the texture and finish re-
quired for some of the best grade goods
without the, use Of some shOddy, As
shoddy is made from WOOD fiber 1t gives
the same chemical tests as pure wool,
and small amounts are almost impos-
sible to detect, except by the use of the
microscope. The rough feel and cheap
appearance of a fabric give some idea
to the shopper of the presence of a
large amount of shoddy.
Cotton Is also used with wool. Such
goods have many uses. 1t is a simple
matter to detect the presence of cot
ton as wool Is dissolved in alkalies and
not affected by acids, while cotton is
dissolved by acids and not affected by
alkalies. The odor of burning wool is
characteristic, too.

SELL YARD HOLDINGS
WILL ENTER BINDING AGREE
MENT IN FEDERAL COURTS
WILL COMBINE FUTURE BUSINESS
TO PROVISION AND MEAT
PACKING.

Washington, Dec. l9.-The govern
mcnt'S antitrust action against the
great meat packers, begun last summer
rs part of the fight on the high cost of
living, has been compromised under AN
agreement 10y which the packers will
roufine themselves hereafter to the
meat and provision business.
An injunction decree, To which the
Dackcrs have acccded, will be entered
u the federal courts To make the agree
ment binding. Under its terms, the
Big ~Fi,e-Swift, Armour, Morris, viii
son and Cudahy-have agreed to di-
vorcc their meat packing industries
from their other commercial activities
and Ia sell their holdings in public
Stockyards and their interests in
stockyard railroads, terminals, market
newspapers and similar side lines"
Two years are given To comply with
he decree which affects clghty-seven
corporations, and forty-nine individ-
uals
"In general" said Attorney Palmer's
official announcement, this decree pre-
vents the defendants from exercising
any further control oven the marketing
of livestock. 1t forever prevents them
from any control over the retailing of
the field of meat substitutes, with the
exception of eggs, butter, poultry and
cheese, which are left for future on
sidcration and action; and, therefore,
the price of meat is within control of
the people themselves. 1t places the
conduct of these great a~ggregations of
capital Immediately under the eye of
II Federal Court with reference To their
business practices.
But, greater than all, il establishes
the principle that 40 group of men, no
matter how powerful, can ever attempt
10 control the food table of the Amer
lean people or any one of the neccssi-
ties or component parts of it.
THE Department of Justice, having
in mind the necessities and interests
of the whole American people in this
critical reconstruction period, feels
that by insisting upon this surrender
on the part of packing interests ii has
accomplished more for the American
people than could have been hoped for
as the result Of "a long drawn out legal
