 BOUGHT HOTEL STOCK
Republican A. p. eased Wire1

CHICAGO, Oct. 2S.-Letters indicat- ing that the big Chicago packers had invested large sums in the stock of large hotel companies, especially in New York city. were introduced to- day in the interestate commerce com missions hearing of the National Wholesale Grocers' association com plaint that the packers received special service from the railroads, The letters went into the record over the objection of counsel for Swift and company
 The letters. chiefly written in 1917, by Louis F. Swift, head of Swift and company, indicated that Armour and company, held $200, 900 in stock in the Biltmore and about $500.0OO in the Commodore hotel companies of New York and that Swift and company had taken $50.000 in the Hotel Me Alpin. The letters, to other officials of Swift and company, suggested that it should be a good policy to take stock in substantial hotel enterprises in order to obtain the business of provisioning those establishments, and told of an effort to obtain stock in the Biltmore and Commodore hotel com panies, adding:
 But it was impossible; Armour had arranged it in advance"

NEW YORK, Oct. 2&-Employmehl of 3,700 drafted soldiers, who were given an average of $S a day by the contractors in addition to their govern ment pay to help construct logging railroad in the northwest, was de- scrfbad today to the congressional sub- committee investigating aviation ex- penditures during the war.
 The government spruca railroad was built in the Olympia peninsula. Wash ington, and connects with the Chicago, Milwaukee and St Paul lines. It is 3S miles long and cost $4.000i000.
 We didn't need the. soldiers at all; the government insisted on giving them to us" testified H. $. Kerbaugh, member of the New York contracting firm of Stems, Carey and Kerbaugh, which built the road.
 According to the witness. the. con- tractors had to supplement some civilians with soldiers. These orders, he said came from Major M. Sawyer, representing Colonel B. P Disque. Major Sawyer is now a superintendent of the Chicago Milwaukee, and St. Paul. The soldiers numbered one third the civilians employer on the construction and received the same pay as the latter.
 MT. Kerbaugh denied that commer- cial uses to which the road might be put after the war resulted in it's great cost. He said a heavy roadbed was necessary in order to bring out quickly 3e0000,000 feet of spruce which he and his associates had contracted to log. No spruce had moved over the road when the armistice was signed and the road was not completed then.

CONF FERENCE REPORT
 ADOPTED BY SENATE

WASHINGTON, Oct. 2S.-The com ference report on the general deficien- cy bill was adopted by the senate with out record vote despite criticism by Chairman Wadsworth of the military committee and others. of the conferees action in eliminating entirely from the bill the senate appropriation of $15,- 1000 for the army air service. The house has yet to act
 Should an emergency arise, Senator Wadsworth declared. the United States would not be able to muster more than three squadrons of airplanes and even those would be obsolete. Because of this country's dilatory tactics toward the development of aeronautics, he added the airplane industry in this country practically had died out and if it did die completely, g years would be required for this country to catch up with the other nations.

WASHINGTON, Oct 28.-Juhus H.

an amount which has been exceeded only twice in our history"
 MT Barnes admitted that the control which the grain corporation had exer cised during the two years of the war emergency should be removed in the very near future, but he urged that steps to consummate this should pro- vide for a general transition to prewar conditions and not an abrupt change
 One of the first steps, he stated, would be the elimination of export and import restriction authorized under the wheat guarantee act He recom- mended to the president the removal of these restrictions on June 30 he added, but for fear that the removal of these restrictions might lead to ad vancing bread prices, action was de-
