Moral Bankruptcy

his district, which, after considering the evidence heard by the secretary of agriculture, may affirm or set aside the order suspending or revoking the license. If the order is affairmed, the court issues an injunction against the carrying on of business.
 The commissioner of foodstuffs then applies to the United States district court to appoint a receiver for the property, who has all the powers of receiver in cases of financial bank ruptcy. Application for the discharge of the receiver may be made either by the commissioner the receiver, or the packer, and the receiver, after hear ing, may be then discharged by the court. At the same time the court is required to enjoin the packer from further violations of the law.
 This receivership and moral bank duptcy" are among several new fea- lures in the bill, which was written as the consensus of weeks of conferences by the men in curbing the domination hy the packers of the food supplies Of the country.
 The shift in the situation after the termination of the war and the dncer- tainty of railroad management caused the writers of the bill to drop the scheme proposed in the last congress for government ownership of the stock yards. Instead a system of licensing has been introduced.
 Under this system the secretary of agriculture will demand that the pack CTS confine themselves to the occupa- tion for which they secure license. As the federal trade commission revealed some months ago. the five big packing concerns control 562 different corpora tions producing food or other sup plies which have no relation to the packing business.
 The Kenyon-Anderson bill compels them to the business of meat-packing.
 The secretary of agriculture" it says. 'either on his own initiative or on petition of the commissioner of foodstuffs5s may require the licensee to refrain from direct or indirect par ticipation in the purchase, manufac- ture, storage, or sale of foodstuffs or commodities other than those handled in the business for which the license was issued, either by ownership, con- trol, community, or stockholding or otherwise

lThe Christian Science Monitorl


 To an increasing number of people in these days, the reason for existing seems far to seek. NO longer content with the easy philosophy of an age which said that all Is for the best in the best of all possible worlds, and that whatever is inexplcable in this existence will be made clear in the next, the multitude has awakened to the many discrepancies in that philos- ophy and is asking very awkward questions of it's pastors and masters. The general spread of education, giving a voice to many strata of society which have hitherto been dumb, bringing to light the glaring inconsistencies of what we are pleased to call civiliZa- tion, has probably contributed very largely to this result Whatever the cause, however, there is no doubt about the fact and it would not be surprising to find from contemporary statistics compiled by book sellers and publishers, that during the last fifty years the cynical fatalism of Omar Khayyam and kindred writings have found an everlasting sale.
 With them the seed of Wisdom did
 I SOW,
 And with mine own hand wrought to
 make it grow,
 And this was all the Harvest that reaped,-
 I came like Water and like Wind
 go.'
 Into this Universe and Why not
 knowing,
 Nor Whence, like Water willy -nilly ! flowing:
 And out of it, as Wind along the Waste,
 know not Whither. willy-nilly blowing"
 To such questions as these the old l theologies give no answer; they sim 1 ply say we are not meant to under stand, and talk of faith and trust, but i to this age of questions and doubtings they do not seem to be able to give a reason for the hope that is in them i It is this state of mind that has turned many people, wearied with the con- tradctions of jarring creeds. to seek in Christian Science some resting place, and in the writings of Mary Baker Eddy, they find a demonstrable system of religion and philosophy which not only satisfies conscience but convinces reason. On page 16i of "The First Church of Christ, Scien- tist, and Miscellany" Mrs. Eddy writes: Thus may each member ot this church rise above the oft-repeatet inquiry What am 1? to the scientific response: I am able to impart truth health, and happiness, and this is m! rock of salvation and my reason fol existing" Every one must admit tha this is at least an original pronounce ment and one that is worth consider. ing, for to be able to impart trutl and health would indeed be a reason for existence worth having.
 Amongst the fundamental statement of Christian Science is the assertion that both disease and hearth are state of mind not of matter at all, but no in the way which a superficial gras] of that statement would imply, namely that it is case of mind over matter

FORDS NAY BE HAD
 AT SAME OLD PR|CE

Notwithstanding increases, both real and expected, in this pEices of many automobiles, the Ford machine con- tinues at the same price established when materials were cheaper and labor conditions more favorable. Moreover, Ed. Rudolph, local Ford agent, has not been informed of any intended increase within the next few months.
 It is generally admitted that there is a general upward trend of the auto mobile market due to the great de- mand and comparatively small produc- tion, together with the rapidly increas- ing costs of materials and labor con- ditions. Materials used in the manu- facture of autos, for example, have ad- vanced sharply in price during the past three or four months.
 In face of all these facts, the Ford factory is continuing the production of the universal car" at the same price established many months ago. If an advance was anticipated within the next few weeks, MT. Rudolph stated, he would have received notification by this time.

By A. 2. GeIdhof

Members of congress who are fight ing the meat trust have worked out an entirely new method for controlling the great Chicago packers and helping to reduce the cost of living.
 It's embodied in the Kenyon -Ander- son bill, which has met the approval of all those interested in the abate- ment of the abuses of packer sov- ereignty, and has just been introduced in both houses of congress.
 Here's the idea:
 When merchant is unable to pay his debts, his business is put in the hands of receiver, who manages it until it is once more on firm financial foundation, when he turns it back to the owner, purged of debt.
 That's called financial bankruptcy.
 The same principle has been applied to the case of the packers, although 1 instead of financial bankruptcy, it's called moral bankruptcy.
 When the packer violate any of the provisions of the Kenyon Anderson act, which places him under a license he is to be declared moral bankrupt and his business is to be turned over 1 to a receiver. This receiver is to run the business in the public interest un- l til it is evident that the packer can obey the law, when his business is to be returned to him.
 This proceeding is quite simple | said William B. Colver, chairman of | the Federal Trade Commission, who has done more than any one man to expose the iniquity of the meat trust ''It simply adopts the procedure of the courts everywhere in this country. By | it the packing firms are not dispos- sessed of their property; they are merely placed under suspension by the courts because they cannot be trusted to operate their business properly.
 There is no opportunity for unfair ness or for political chicancery in this measure. Neither the federal trade commission nor any other departmen of the government will have anything to do with it; the courts, which every body, even big business, agrees are ab- solutely impartial, will run the pack CTS business until they can be trusted to run it themselves"
 The bill provides that the presiden shall appoint a commissioner of food stuffs under the department of agri- culture to enforce the legislation Whel this commissioner finds that packe is violating the law, he serves notic upon him to appear before the secre tary of agriculture for a hearing. the secretary of agriculture finds fron the evidence that the law has bee, violated, he may suspend the packer license to do business or revoke it en tirely.
 The packer then has the right tt I appeal the circuit court of appeals 0

IN BIG GAME COUNTRY

That the district through which the government railroad operates is a big game country is evidenced by be fact hat a bull moose walked across the railroad track within a few wards of Camp S6, in the Turuagain Arm dis trlct, and was shot by l.. 0. Nyberg. foreman at the camp. The result of the walking by the moose and the sue ce>stuI shooting by Foreman Nyberg was that the occupants of the camp teasted dnring the week on the fat and choice portions of the carcass. At ra]- ksetna mother bear and two cubs wandered about on the outskirts of the town. They were shot by Harry R. Brown, deputy United States marshall
 and T. R. Owens, former employe of the Alaska Engineering commission. The carcaSses were eaten by the resi- dents of Talkeetua and the pells were shipped to Anchorage for tanning and mounting Alaska Railroad Record.
