move causes OF friction with livestock
producers and food distributors. EN-
phatically Mr.. Veeder stated that the
decree was not to be construed as an
admission that Swift and company
had violated any law.
"The company feels that the same
spirit which caused the business men
of the country to submit to personal
sacrifices to wi the war;" he said, ''is
just as essential during this period of
reconstruction as then and therefore
lit meets the request Of the govern
ment for the sacrifice of its own inter-
ests. The company has consented to
the entry of decree for injunction
only unon expressed condition that it
should in so many words recite that
the decree does not adjudicate that
the company has violated any law of
the United States"
Attorney General Palmer said that
overtures for compromise came first
from the packers, after the depart
ment of justice had placed its evi-
dence before a grand jury in Chicago.
The attitude Of Morris and COM
pany was expressed by M. W. Bor-
ders, general coui.sel, who said the
firm had consented to the decree ain
the spirit of true Americanism."

and made certain business sacrifices
in order to meet the views of the gov
ernment," he continued, "and for
ever set at rest the fear of monopoly
Of the American table by the packers.
In this period Of reconstruction and
unrest we desired to promote conf
dcnce, cooperation and stable condi-
tions."
Bills proposing government regu-
lation of the packing industry, now
before the Senate agriculture COM
mittee, win not be abandoned as a re-
Snlt. of the decree, Senators Kenyon,
Iowa, and Kendrick, Wyoming, auth
ors of the measure, announced last
night.
"'The attorney-gencrai's victory is
merely a step, though a very long
one, toward the goal we have been
seeking to attain" said Mr.. Kendrick.
'"The fruits of his victory may be
made permanent only by legislation
along the lines of the measures now
pending"
Telling Blow.
Senator Kendrick said the decree
was 'the most telling blow" yet de-
livered against the high cost of living.
Senator Kenyon declared the govern
ment should maintain over the pack
ers the control provided by the pend
ing bills, inasmuch as sis is evident
they were building the greatest mo-
nopoly the country has ever known"
The five big Chicago packers will
dispose of all interests controlled by
them except those directly allied with
meat packing under an agreement
reached with the department of JUS
tice for the settlement of the anti
trust suits against them
All stockyards owned by the pack
ers will be sold under the approval of
a United States court to whoever de-
sires to purchase them.
Government officials regard the de-
cree as so complete that it will re-
move permanently any danger of the
packers monopolizing the dinner table
Of the average American, inasmuch as
the packers will be forced to retire
from their domination of the markets

Van Name Attacks Sea View
Hospital Before Board

ToTTENVILLE, May 24.-Borough
President Calvin d. Van Name ap-
pearing before the Board of Estimate
n Apportionment yesterday at City
hall, Manhattan, charged that no suf-
ferer from tuberculosis of the lungs
sent to the Sea View Hospital ever
comes out alive. The Sea View Hos
pital on Staten Island is one of the
numerous institutions maintained by
the city for its poor. 1t is under the
direction of Bird s. Coler, commits
sioner of charities. The charges were
made when a request was received
from Commissioner Coler for the APP
prevail of the expenditure of $3.50 for
bronze tablets on q new building at
the hospital.
These tablets were to be inscribed
with the name of Mayor Hylan and
other members of the Board of Esti-
mate and with Commissioner Coler's.
II want to give a cord of advice to
the members of the board" said
President Van Name. II is this: THAT
no member of the board shall pert it
his name to be put on any tablet on
that hospital, for sooner or later
there will be IN awful revelation of
the number of deaths from lung tu-
berculosis at that Institution. mo one
RECEIVERS who goes there from this
form of consumption. There have
been recoveries from tuberculosis of
the bones and they give out figures on
these. But not a single patient af-
hicted with tuberculosis of the lungs
ever in that institution. The
atmosphere is bad. The hospital is
enveloped in fog most of the time"
After the other borough presidents
and other members of the board dis
cussed the matter of the hospital the
request for the money for the bronze
tablets was denied and the charges of
Mr.. Van Name left standing.
