 MEAT CONTROL PLAN
Republican A. p. Leased wirel

WASHINGTON. March 91.--Senator Kendrick of Wyoming who introduced Il bill at the last session of congress providing for the government regula- ton of the meat packing industry. is sued a statement tonight opposing the creation of a conference committee of the livestock industry as has been proposed for the adjusting of differ ences between the packers, stock rais- CTS, and the government. He declared a permanent solution of this situation could not be obtained through the work of such a committee.
 The interests of packer producer and consumer" said Senator Kendrick may be conserved according to my judgment, only by legislation which shall in the first place. remove all grounds for misunderstanding and dis trust, and in the second place give full publicity to all the activities of both the producing and the consuming markets.
 No conference committee can bring about these results because no con- ference committee can destroy the ab- solute control which a few packers now exert over the stock markets on the one hand and the distributing system on the other. It is essential that the packers be divorced from ownership and control of the stockyards and that the refrigerator car system of the country be placed absolutely at the 1 service of all shippers upon equal terms. These reforms may be secured only by legislation

Republican A. p. Leased Wire1

LONDON, March 31-The house of commons today passed the third reading of the military bill by a vote of 2S2 to GA. after strong criticism of the gov ernment on the ground of wasteful ex penditure and violation of election pledges to abolish conscription. Win ston Spencer Churchill, secretary of war, made a vigorous reply to these criticism. He described the broad band across Europe from the White sea to the Caspian as smodering or aflame through bolsheviki attacks and de- clared that Germany and Austria were likely to slide into hopeless anarchy or form a military alliance with the bol- sheviki.
 The approximate distribution of troops. the secretary said, would be as follows
 In Great Britain. 176,000; in France, 10000; on the Rhine, 264, 900. In Italy and adjacent regions, MT. Churchill added there would be 10000 men. in order to adjust the lamentable differ enceS which had arisen between Italy and the Jugo- -Slavs, saying: We are keeping small forces of British troops there in many localities where the troops of no other nation would be welcome. We have been asked to do this in conjunction with our allies because it has been found that these troops could prevent troubles between the local populations merely by their presence during the period We are trying to settle things.
 This was. of course. continued the secretary. done at the request and by the desire of both parties, who felt that otherwise there might be a grave pol itical situation and there were nc troops anywhere engaged on more merciful and beneficial task.
 In the middle east and the Caucasus there were 75.000 men, and he hoped | this number might be substantially re- l duced in the near future. These troops ! had been there to expel Turks and Ger mans, and were there now merely tC | keep the people from flying at eacf others throats until decisions had beer reached at the peace conference. In Mesopotamia Great Britain hat 30.000 men. After emphasizing th' smallness of the number of troop: actually in Russia, MT Churchill sait that if Russia did not exist, the oil still would be necessary.
 In north Russia and Siberia, ther 1 were something like 10000 men out o a total of S59000 British troops com prising the contemplated army of oc cupation in the various areas durin

The beginning of the flight must be so gauged it was explained. that the machines will not overtake one storm as it slows down before disspating at sea and yet will not be caught in a second squall.
 Before jumping off for the actual crossing Of the ocean the seaplanes will be called upon to make a longer voyage than has yet been negotiated by naval machines-that from Rocka . way Beach to New Foundland. At least one stop will be made on this flight. probably at Halifax, for fuel
 It may be necessary for one or more Of the machines 10 descend at other points and it is to select possible land - ing places that the destroyer Barney was sent on it's cruise along the coast from Maine 10 New FOundland.
