PACKERS SEEK coNrRoL
OF ALL THE FOOD sTUFFs
Five of the Big Companies Said to
Actually Jictate to 65b I'm
related Concerns.

Washington. Jan. 1.-THE big five
packers actually control 655 unre-
lated companies and have a minol
interest in IS others, Chairman Will
liam h. Colver of the federal trade
commission today told the house
interstate commerce committee in
vestigating the packing industry.
Colver read a statement from a
wholesale grocery declaring the
packers had extended their inter
ests into 5000 commodities, none of
which are directly related to the
meat business.
In questiOnnaires sent out by the
commission to wholesale grocers,
he said, it was the uniform opinion
that the packers were Threatening
their existence. One wholesaler in
New York declared that the trust
had assumed power enough to de-
stroy all wholesalers in this coun-
try in five or ten days, he added.
Chairman Colver has asserted
that the present growth OF the com.
binatiOn would destroy grocery
competition in ten years.
Giving an example of the broad
scope of the packers, COlver said
the commissions investigation has
disclosed that besides dealing in
canned goods, breakfast foods.
fruits: groceries in general they had
entered the retail coal business.
This venture, however, had not yet
assumed such threatening proper
tions, he said.

: Copenhagen, Jan. 2.-The Danish
authorities are now becoming con
vilced that Germany will be used
as base for Bolshevik attacks
against the western powers.
Many Danes, it was learned last
Thursday, are urging the govern
ment to take the most drastic ac-
tion to suppress the Bolshevik
propaganda.
This city is greatly stirred by the
appearance of Carl Radek and a
Bolshevik delegation in Berlin.
A majority Of the German popu-
lation realize that the BOlsheviki
caused desperate confusion in East
Prussia and undoubtedly will try
to use Germans to further the move
ment.
The Bolshevik congress at Berlin
voted by 63 to % against Karl Lieb-
knecht's proposal to participate in
the national assembly election Jan.

Copenhagen, Jan. IA Polish

Gustav Noske, member of the
Ebert cabinet, in charge Of military
affairs, Is said to have ordered the
Fifth German division to meet the
Poles.
Events in Posen are assuming .
grave character, according to ad-
vices from Berlin. Large parts Of

miles northeast of Bfeslau. German
troops there must, 1t is stated, re-

which adds that the Poles have oc-
cupied Beuthen, in Prussian Sile

 Dear Father and Family: We'll as I have just returned from. trip to Gibralsa~ and Cranode Spain, will drop line before sailing for tho Azore Islands Wednesday, and then to Philadelphia. Ia We expect to ge, there by April 26.
 I am sending Bonnie and Beatrice a card each from over here-one is g souviner of point on the Big Rock which is 1900 feet above sea level, and the other is a souvineer from a Spanish town just across the bay from Glib. I stood on the shores of the Mediterainian sea and looked across the Straight in the Moroca in north ern Africa and saw the moon capped to my left could see the Queens Chair in Spain, where the queen of Spain sat when the British took the rock of Gibraltar form the Spanish and after the battle was over she said she would sit there until she saw. the flag of Spain on top of the Rock once more; so in her honor. af- ter letting her sit there for about 3 hours they lowered the British flag and hoisted the Spanish, and after she left her seat they hoisted the British colors again.
 Then to my back was No Mans Land", small island between Gib- raltar and Spain that belongs to no country. While one my sight touring into the heavens to the height of 1.4od feet stood the Big Rock, and on my side near small dirty faced Spanish boy saying, "Ombfey un pennie". don't believe I ever witnessed any. thing like it before. It is trip never to be forgotten.
 Sending all my love to all at home | close hoping to see you soon.
