Products that PackersSen
na mb4 Grossly Exaggerated

The Federal Trade Commission has
published list Of some $40 articles said
to be sold by the packers
This list is ridiculously padded in
order to scare people into the belief that
the packers are getting control Of the
food supply Of the nation
For example, the list includes not oniy BEEF
sides and beef CUTS, but also over so other items Of
beef products md by-producS
Over 90 articles listed not sold to the outside
trace but are raw materials and Supplies such as
n1ck cement etc, used by Swift & COMPANY IN
carrying ca its business
Glar1ng applications appear, such as "sardines"
and canned sardInes"; butterine' and ~oeonar.
ga1me dried sausages and dry sausage" etc.
The list includes 81 kinds of Sausage dif-
fe1ent KINDS or preparations Of beef tongue etc. etc
Sinarnered down, Swift & Company handles IN
ADDITION to meats and meat by-products only butter
eggs, cheese poultry canned goods lard substitutes
and to very small extent, dried and salt fish And
the proportion which we handle of the total supply
OF any one Of these is absurdly small
Do you want to be fooled by such misleading
and ridiculous statements Ct the Trade Commission?
Do you want radical legislation based On such absurd

Cayon Denies Plot
To Invade Mexico

Roberto Gayon, former secretary to
the late General Aurelio Blanquet
who is being held for removal tc
Laredo, Tex, where an Indictment was
returned charging him with conspir-
ing to organize a military expedition
against Mexico, was given hearing
yesterday before United States Com
missioner Hitchcock.
Former Congressman William Ben
net, attorney for Gayon, entered an
emphatic denial of all charges. Gayon,
in his own behalf, explained that the
indictment had been found on the
mistranslation of letters he had given
to Foster Averitt, reputed agent of the
Banquet movement in April Of 1918.
These letters, he asserted, were in
Spanish and directed to a Mexican edi-
tor in San Antonio and to General
Banquet, who was in Mexico
He submitted carbon copies of the
letters. When these have been trans
lated and compared with the documents
on which the Indictment was found
Cayon will be cross examined by AS
sistant United States Attorney Robert
Stephenson. The hearing was ad-
journed until May Is.

DR.. Copeland Urges State
Aid to Narcotic Board,
Saying 100, 900 Cases Can
Be Cured in Few Months
City Lacks Needed Laws
Changes in Sanitary Code
Suggested if Cooperation
Is Refused by Herrick

prehensive recommendations
which, if adopted and enforced, he
believes would exterminate the drug
evil in New York City within six
months, have been sent to Walter R
Herrick, Commissioner of Drug Con-
troll, by DR.. Royel S. Copeland, City
Commissioner of Public Health.
In making public his recommends
tions DR.. Copeland pointed out the
fact that his power over the drug
situation in the city is so curtailed
by the narcotic drug act that his in
fuence can be exerted only in the
form of recommendations. Mr.. Her.
rick's narcotic drug commission has
the power to adopt regulations with
the force of statutes, according to DR..
Copeland.
Would List All Addicts
Dr.. Copeland's recommendations
would define a drug addict as one
who, with certain provisos, requires the
daily administration of a narcotic for
longer period than three weeks; that
drug addicts must need carry a photo
graphic Identification card; third, that
no drug addict shall be given a pre-
scription who has not proper creden-
tials from the Board of Health; that
every prescription shall be made in
triplicate and filed with the State Mar
cotic Commission, and that means be
provided to deter physicians from ad-
ministering drugs in a manner likely
to perpetuate the drug habit.
Dr. Copeland considers the drug sit
uation in the city so serious, both from
the number of addicts and the lack of
organized effort to relieve it, that if
the Commission Of Drug Control does
not adopt some thorough going plan to
meet this situation, he will attempt to
have the Sanitary Code Of the city
amended so that the Health Depart
ment may act.
Would Change City Code
With this purpose in view, the Health
Department. has prepared an amend
ment to the Sanitary Code, which will
incorporate into the present law addi-
tional regulations which DR.. Copeland
thinks will cover the needs of the
Health Department. This amendment
will be submitted to the Corporation
Council for an opinion.
1t the amendment is considered legal,
1T will be enacted at once by the Board
Of Health.
DR.. Copeland expressed the fear yes
terday that if the amendment is held
Illegal and the State Narcotic Commits
sion does not take comprehensive action
soon, the city drug clinic now in oper-
alton may have TO be closed
1T would not be right for the city
to continue administering to some 5000
addicts any longer" he said, mot know
ing whether they were obtaining addi-
tional drugs elsewhere.
IL honestly believe Commissioner
Herrick's commission could clean up
100000 cases of drug addicts in this
went at the job systematically"
In giving out an outline of his rec
concentrations, 'Dr. Copeland expressed
himself against the use of fingerprints
in registering drug addicts, owing to
the usual association of tingerprinting
with criminality. He favors the iden-
tification process followed in obtaining
passports, requiring a description. of
the registrant, his photograph and his
signature be filed.

WASHINGTON, May 1o.-An early
readjustment of the railroad situation
was predicted here to-day in state
ment by Senator Cummins, of Iowa,
who will probably head the Interstate

Il am very much encouraged over
the possibility of reaching some agree
ment that will take care of the situa-
tion OF readjustment which we all feel
is necessary" said Senator Cummins.
II have advocated three principles
which | believe ought to be embodied
IN our railroad policy. These are:
First, the consolidation Of the rail
roads into anywhere from fifteen to
twenty systems: second, the private
operation of these systems throuoh
Federal Incorporation, each one Of
which becomes the operator of one Of
