[HeaublIesn A. P. Leased wlrel

WAsHINGTON, Aug. Federal trade commission charges against the five leadine packers, on which the Kenyon and Kendriek hills proposing license regulation of the industry are based, were denied today before the senate agriculture committee in behalf of Swift and company D. D. Weld manager of the department of business research for the Swift company, was the only witness actually on the stand but his statement were supplemented occasionally by Henry Veeder as eoun- sel for the company and by John Chaplin, it's general auditor.
 Statistical analysis of Swift and company's beef operations presented by MT. Weld fixed the cost price of fresh beef to the company in 1914 at s7.06 a hundred weight. and the sell
 ing price at sl2.0s. In 1918 the cost price had jumped 53.1 per cent or to s10s1, and the selling price had in- creased AT per cent OF 10 sl7.7T. Dur ing the four weeks ending August Is, livestock, Mir. Welds charts showed cost Swift s1o2.s6 head and were

THIS STORY |S ABOUT
 RAILROAD STRIKES,
 FISH AND WEDDINGS

Justice Frank De Souza returned on Sunday morning from his vacation. just escaping being caught in the door by the strike. He left Los Angeles on the last Santa Fe train that has come eastward. The situation, said Justice de Souza, is much more serious in Los Angeles than one would gather from the dispatches. It is mare serious than is outlined by the Los Angeles papers. but when one reads all of the papers he can have some idea of the gravity of the case. The chief fear there is that the strike will spread to the trades and that the city will be utterly tied up.
 Market reports show a sharp ad- vance in the price of fish since the de- parture of the justice in fact for the last week, for 1t was a week ago that he quit fishing in preparation for his departure. The supply, thus having been curtailed, there was naturally an anvanee in prices which, as is seen, was not in this case result Of profi- teering.
 There was an unfortunate hiatus be- tween the arrival of Justice de Souza and the departure four days ago of Justice Wheeler on his vacation. When the latter left he understood that Jus- lowing morning. So far as the general run of the business of the courts of in : herent jurisdiction is concerned, 1t made little difference whether there was a justice here for a few days or not. But there were the people who wanted to get married Four days is a long time for one 10 wait after he oh she has determined to be married Many of the candidates are not &C., quainted with the ministers of the ges- pei and do not know where to find them.
 So there had been an accumulation of young men and women armed with licenses. They began calling at the of flee of Justice De Souza last Thursday morning. They were met and 1oliied along by Miss May Daley, the efficient clerk of the court, who assured them that Justice De Souza might be K pected almost every minute. She was sure that If he missed the regular train he would come by a specially chartered train or by automobile. Just sit down and be comfortable.
 Now and then, when a prospective bride and groom gave signs of rest i Iessness and began inquiring whether 3 1uSLltS utl6iit iiVt pc A0utiA at Ptctupte Mesa, Tempe or Wickenburg, she eau l toned them against undue haste in a matter of so much importance such an 1 irrevocable step as they were con 1 templating. Tt is better.r she told them, ito wait as long as possible, for the longer you wait, the shorter will be the period of repentance after the wedding"
 Miss Daley was not able to stand al Of the aspirants off, but she held fouI couples in check and they were united yesterday.

AMERICAN RANCHER BRINGS REPORT IF
 YAQU| LAUNDERING
GRepubIIcan A. p. Leased wirel

DOUGLAS, Aug. 25.- Three Mexi- cans were killed, several others wound ed, ranch and at least one mining property footed by a band of 80 Yaaui Indians, operating in the district south and west of Moetezuma, Sonora, ap- proximately 160 miles south of Doug las eight days ago, The first news of the raid reached Douglas upon the arrival here of pr. G. T, Veal, presi- dent of the Slaughter Land and Cattle company.
 The Yaauis were reported to have left the Slaughter ranch for the San Nicolas mine, operated by a Douglas corporation, which is said to have been footed, but no one war silled- From there they are said to have gone in the direction of Arizpe, with the announced intention of footing the Chispas and the Babieanora mines. Efforts tonight to ascertain whether they had reached either place were futile At the Babi- camera there are four Americans, ]. T. Ravens, E. H. Schram, Gilbert Meleher and R. H. Whitesides At Las Chispas the only foreigners are Antonio Pa drazzinin, Swiss. and J. Montijo of San Francisco, Cal. the largest stock : holder in the concern.
 In describing the raid on the Slaugh- ter ranch, which he said he had re- ceiyed from employees who met him in Moctezuma as he was on his way to the ranch and turned him back, Dr. Veal said that the Indians came up to the Basura river from the direction of Ures, arriving on the property on the afternoon of August 15 En route they were known to have killed one Mexican near Basuran camp and the mail car rier between that place and tres. On the Soque ranch, near the Slaughter holding, they killed a Mexican cowboy and his horse. The man reached the doorway of his home after heinz shot and fell dead at the feet of his wife The fate of the woman is not known.
 Juan Cruz. an employe of the Slaughter ranch, was set upon by the Indians and badly wounded, his hip be- ing shattered by bullet His life was spared on condition of his guiding the Indians to the headquarters ranch which he did. Later he was allowed tc ride to Babicanora for treatment,
 The band reached the ranch Sunday morning, August IT, and failing to ffnt Dr. Veal, who then was in Douglas they killed scores of cattle, 160 chicken. and turkeys and 20 fat hogs, while g horses and mules in the corral were driven off.
 l Lumber which was piled near ths house was burned, the garden wantonl, dug up and the Yaquis pastured theii horses in the fields where there wer. | growing crops.

sary to accept the higher costs as a permanent basis of adjustment and railway wages should be adjusted with the rest.
 MT Hines recommendations to the president showed that the average in crease in shopmens earnings was in excess of the total increase in the cost of living from July I. 1915. and August 1, 1913, due to the fact that standard ization adopted at the request of the employees had given thousands higher classification and higher pay than they previously enjoyed.
 Cases Not Parallel
 Wages paid for similar work in ship yards, which workers the shopmen have cited as higher paid, Mr. Hines said, were higher because the work was temporary and carried on under great CT pressure, and also the workmen were forced to live in congested districts where living was extremely high while railroad shopmen generally have the advantage of small, or semi-rural com munities. Private industries the di- rector general found were paying about three cents an hour more than the railroad administration. which differ ence will be capitalized under the four CtII duNdnG6.
 In addition to the four cents an houI increase for most of the shopmen, the director general ordered that all freight car repair men receive 67 cents in- stead of 6s cents for steel car repairers and 5S cents for wood car repairer; and that car inspectors should receive 67 cents instead of 5s cents, with the exception in both classes that increases for men employed at outlying points where the work is not continuous shal be four cents an hour.
 After their visit to the White House the shopmen's representatives con ferred with Director General Hines al the railroad administration Later they went into conference at the American federation of labor headquarters and a midnight so far as could be learned still were discussing the resolutions t, be submitted to the union membership which numbers about 250,000
 Acting President Jewell said a state. ment setting forth the attitude of tht union heads will be issued as soon as decision was reached.

 slaughtered and shipped at an expense of s12.S2 a head The beef in eaen animal brought an average of SS5.ll and hides and ysproducts SS1.s6. The profit deduced from this was 2S cents a hundfedweight.
 MT. Weld denied that any profits not shown were concealed in the by-pra- duct distribution, and when committee members pressed the point, MT Needer declared that the books of the com- pany and all it's subsidiaries were open to it's examination for yerifieati0n.
 Denial was also made by MT. Weld that combined profits of the packers during 1918 under food administration control, were SITS, ,000,o00, as stated by Federal Trade Commissioner Colver.
 ''The facts, said Mir Weld, are that in 1918 the five companies earned s5S,51e, 900 and that after federal taxes were deducted they earned s51,600,00e net. Under the food commission regu- lation the profits were much lower than they were in 1917. In 1915 the packers profits were equivalent to 15.27 per. cent on capital and surplus; in 1917 they were 1928 per cent and in 1918 1042 per cent.

MUCH UT TON| IN VALLEY INJURED
 IN b|C STORM
Many Fields Escaped En- tirely, But Some Were Badly Damaged, Espec-
 tally Those Where Hail and Wind Were Heaviest

Hundreds of acres of cotton were laid flat in the Mesa Tempe region by the terrific windstorm Saturday night but several days must elapse before it is known if the stalks are injured per manently or if they will right them selves. Hail fell in several spots, ac- cerding to reports received yesterday.
 Near Litchfield and Tolleson, little or no damage was done. Fields as far northwest as Glendale yesterday showed little effect of the storm.
 Warren Cook of the Cook brothers ranch about three miles east of Chandler, stated yesterday that the wind storm was slight in the vicinity of Chandler, and that the bulk of the damage had been done around Mesa and Tempe.
 More details of this damage were learned through interviews obtained with various Phoenix men interested in cotton.
 Storm Worst Near Tempe
 None of the fields in which we are interested were hurt said Charles G.. Steele, with the R. Allyn Lewis com pany. There was very little damage on the north side of the river
 Others corroborated this and stated that the storm swept down the south bank of the river as far as the Laveen district Byron Carr had a 60-aere field leveled on his ranch three miles southeast of Tempe. A rancher living northeast of Mesa said he had 40 acres the same way and that all the cotton in his district was in like condition.
 W. H. Knox of the Arizona Cotton Growers association had not been iE the field when questioned. Cahell and Peek reported slight damage but be- lieved the telephone poles were hurt more than the cotton. The E. w Hud- son ranch suffered heavily in the Tempe district, as did Sydney Moeur and Carl Brookes. Guy Attaway's ranch was reported damaged.
 The Mccall Cotton and Oil com pany had no reports from the field, but lost s200 cupela blown from their seed cotton storage house at Seventh street and Grant street, in Phoenix

DAIRY TALKS
 Prosperity of the Dairy Mo IF business assured for all VUs lO time to come Com
 parative food values and education of masses make mar ket for all dairy products.
 We have had number of queries which read something like this:
 From figures which you have given us in Dairy Talks, there is no question but what dairying is a good business NOW, but will it mot be overdone? Is there not chance that there will be an overproduction?"
 To answer this question in brief we can $ truly say:
 1 There isn't chance
 There is shortage of dairy cattle all over the world, occasoned by the world war and the fact that breeding was neglected during the four-year period of the war; and the fur ther fact that hundreds of thousands of dairy cattle were slaughtered for food and on ac- count of shortage of forage. Then there has been developed the knowl- edge that dairy products are possessed of higher food value for the money than any other foods on the market Scientists have ' expeYimented to the end that the products of the milk can have assumed prominent place in the dietary of adults, as well as being more firmly entrenehed as perfect food for grow ing children.
 During the war most tremendous demand was developed for all kinds of fats but es- s pecially dairy fats and today butter and F cheese in European countries is in such de- NFa mand that the price IS almost prohibitory. " The value of the cheese produced in Wis eonsin alone exceeds $1, ,000, 100000 for the year 1919 Five years ago Wisconsin cheese \ was worth 12c per b; it is now worth 31c per lb., and the demand exceeds the supply. At the present time one can scarcely purchase a ~ first-class Eastern Cream Cheese in the mar s ket
 With climatic conditions so ideal for dairy ing in Arizona, is 1t not reasonable to expect that greater returns can be secured from dairying than in localities where the country is in the grip of snow and frost for six months in the year and the growing season for forage crops is short?
 Since conditions are so favorable and the market so stable, does 1t not seem that every effort should be put forth to milk every dairy COW in Arizona, and to develop the dairy herds to the end that much larger produc- ton of dairy foods may be had? Every farmer in Arizona should plan to keep some dairy stock. If necessary, start with few head of good cows, breed them into good milk strains, and build the greater herd from the offspring.
 This department is maintained for the pur- pose of assisting any farmer who desires to secure information or assistance in getting started in the dairy business, and to assist with expert advice and service the daryman who is not getting the best results from his herd These services are free Call, write or phone.

 "This is not a political quetsion, ' MT. Laguardia said, Ut is question which has back of it the American people. During the war, the great cry was to stand behind the president, and win the war. We want to stand behind him now and put through an agree ment that will make another war inn possible"

Magnolia. Ark, March 3.-(Special to The Graphic)-A massmeeting was held with the city council here Fri day night to consider report from the committee appointed by the mayor some time ago to discuss plans with Mir. Garrett of Pine Bluff, a represen- tative of the Arkansas Light and Pow CT company, and endeayor to adjust complaints.
 A month ago the council notified the company that their franchise would be cancelled February 2S. Since this action was taken the sub ject has been very live issue here. The meeting resulted in voting down the committees report agreeing tC rescind the act of a month ago. How
 ever, a vote was sustained to peami' the company to operate under the old contract, the peopl ebelieving that the new legislation just passed, requiring electric light and gas companies tt fulfill their contracts, will require the Arkansas Light and Power company to fulfill the specifications of the previous document.
