RENO NEARLY READY
FOR THE PRESIDENT

With a large crew of electricians
wiring the streets, and the business
men along the line OF march, over
which the President will proceed when
he arrives in Reno, preparing to hang
out flags at their place of business.
Reno will present brilliantly lighted
and decorated appearance Monday
night when the head of the nation
visits that city, according to the Reno
Gazette.
Caring for the immense crowds that
will be on the streets to see the Presi-
dent is one of the problems that the
arrangement committee is working
out, and through the assistance of 100
or $50 service men in uniform, it ex-
poets to keep the streets clear and
give every one chance to see the
President. The streets on the line of
march will be kept clear from curb
to curb and no automobiles or vehi-
cles Of any kind, except those in the
parade will be allowed.
To care for the school children of
Reno and to give them an opportunity
to view the President, the block on
Center street, between First and Sec
ond streets has been reserved for the
children, and they will probably
march from the different schools
about 1880 o'clock, accompanied by
their teachers.
Electricians are stringing wires to-
day for the lights under the supervi-
sion of Fire Chief Hawcroft. The tel
ephone comephone company and the
power company called in their men
from out-of-tow jobs to do the wiring.
Northumberland lamps will be
placed every forty feet on the

LOCAL STORE TO Be
FINEST IN NEVADA

Part of the new equipment ordered
by Krenkel & Bosch, local jewellers.
to further enhance the appearance of
their store, has been received and
installed. Most important of this new
equipment is the addition OF three
new showcases, two wall cases and
mirror sections, to allow room for
which the store room has been en-
larged. These, with expensive new
linoleum. fresh interior and exterior
painting and decorating, elegant elec-
trio fixtures and other alterations,
will make Winnemucca's favorite
jewelry store the largest and most
beautifully furnished in Nevada, as
we'll as the most completely stocked
Winnemucca is fortunate, too, in
being possessed of an institution
such as Krenkel & Bosch's for the
reason that the store is the only Hall
mark store in Nevada. The word
Hallmark. when attached to a jewelry
store, means that the owners thereof
are members of an organization of
more than 700 jewellers in the United
States for the purpose of cooperative
buying. This institution, because of
the mamoth quantity of jewelry pur-
chased for that number of stores. is
enabled to command the very lowest
prices from manufacturers. There is
no profit for the organization. BY this
means Krenkel &. Bosch are enabled
to sell jewelry at retail often for less
than other jewellers can buy it at
wholesale. Being Nevada's largest and
best jewelry store. the only Hallmark
Store in the State. and conducted by
men skilled in their work, we'll liked
by customers and friends, is it any
wonder the proprietors are a little
proud OF their achievements?

ASSOCIATED Pressl

Washington, Feb. 19.-In the first
prepared address on the league of ma
tions delivered in the Senate since the
constitution of the proposed league
was published, Senator Pointdexter
today declared the entrance of the
United States into such a league
would mean the surrender of Ameri-
can rights. privileges and sovereignty,
the abandonment of the Monroe doc
trine and violation of the constitu-
ton. The constitution of the league,
he asserted, is conflicting, indefinite
and uncertain and the machinery it
proposes to set up is similar to the

HOOvER'S VERDICT
ON THE PACKERS
ASSOCIATED Press)

Washington, Feb. IA confiden-
by Herbert G. Hoover six months ago
On the big meat packers was made
public yesterday by the food admins
tration at the direction of the presi-
dent "to establish the real position of
MI. Hoover and the food administra-
tion on the control of the Chicago
packing industries" In recent hear
ings before congressional committees
witnesses for the live stock men
charged collusion between Mr.. Hoover
ard the five leading packers.
In the report, in response to a re-
quest from the president for his views
on the recommendations of the Fed
eral Trade Commission, Mr.. Hoover
said he reaffrmed his opinion given
nearly a year before that "there is a
growing and dangerous domination of
the nations foodstuffs." and approved
some of the commissions proposals.
He recommended constructive regula-
ton rather than stretching temporary
war powers of the government. and
expressed the belief that the domina-
tion of the packers did not necessari-
ly imply wrong doing ON their part,
but was the natural outgrowth "of
various factors which need correc-
ticn."
Mr.. Hoover accepted as economical
ly sound the Federal Trade Commits
siOn's recommendation regarding fed
eral control of animal and refrigera-
tor car service, and said stockyards
SHOULD be entirely disassociated from
the control of the packers" He con-
tended, however, that wrong practices
between buyers and sellers would not
be corrected by the government con-
trolling or owning yards.
His own instinct, Mr.. Hoover said,
was against federal ownership of the
packers branch houses and cold stor-
age and warehouse facilities. Going
into aspects of the packing industry
not covered by the trade commission,
he said:
IF proper abattoirs could be ex-
l,tended near the larger towns, possib-
ly with municipal help and the opera
tions therein protected from illegiti-
mate competition, believe they would
not only succeed, but would greatly
stimulate the local production of meat
animals. One effect would be great
stabilization of prices by a wider
based market than that now so large
ly dependent upon a small group OF
buyers"

the American people will face an i'm
mediate and immense loss, and to the
millions thus distressed other millions
will soon be added from the ranks Of
labor, which those who produced those
stocks Of produce viii be unable fur
ther to employ.
This government must for q time,
be run by boards and commissions
with unlimited powers and these
boards should cooperate very closely

be within the easy range of their

our British friends. that our own re-

for getting the future. Immense cap

The prospect for foreign consump-
