BULGARS TOOK
BIG IMMUNITY
FROM SERBIANS
Enemy Found the Country
Rich in Food and
Material

Nish, Serbia, Feb. 1S.-Bulgaria,
during its occupation OF Serbia.
found tho country not only an abun-
dant source of food and material
but also of considerable revenue
Bulgarian officers exacted large
sums of money fro mthe civilian
population for what they considered
special privileges. For immunity
from deportation, for example, some
Serbians were forced to pay the
Bulgars as high as $4,000 francs.
Other Serbian civilians paid large
sums that their daughters might NOT
be molested, say the Serbians.
Seven thousand francs was the
price paid by Make T. Pastel, wheat
merchant in the town of Bel Pal
anka, near here, to prevent the seiz-
ure by Bulgarian soldiers OF his
daughter, twenty years old. Pasitcfs
son, seventeen years old. had been
deported by Bulgars and died OF
starvation in an internment camp.
Peter Goshitch. banker or the
same town, paid six hundred francs
for the release of his daughter VINO
had been taken from her home by
Bulgars and held at Nish f1ve days.
This young woman's husband, who
was a priest, was killed by Bulgar-
ians short time before, 1t is charg-
ed.
From five hundred to twenty thou
sand francs was the tax put upon
Serbians who desired freedom to
move about, and from this source
the Bulgars reaped a rich harvest.

SAYS PACKERS
ARE A MENACE
Seney Declares They Will
Soon Control Food
Supply

Washington, Feb. 13.-Francis j.
Heney, former counsel for the Fed
eral Trade Commission. testifying
before the House interstate COM
merce committee, declared that
~rShin ten years and probably with
fn five, the five leading meat pack
ers would control the entire food
supply of the country, and would be
able to charge any price they de-
kAred. Mr.. Heney said the packers
have extended their activities into
so many fields thaf they had become
q menace to the country. They now
sontrol cheese, oleomargarine and
butter markets, he said, and rapid
~ are obtaining a monopoly of a
large number of other food prod
ucts.
Mr.. =Heney said the packers re-
ceived their first start towards dom
ination of the food markets through
rebates granted By the railroads.
The second step was the obtaining
of special privileges from the rail-
roads for their refrigerator cars, in
tended originally for perishable
meat products alone.
The packers, Mr.. Heney said, now
use refrigerator cars for perishable
and imperishable goods alike, and
at such a great saving in money and
in time of deliveries as to destroy
competition. AS a result, he said,
wholesale grocers are being driven
out of business.
