Blocks Final Action
on Oil Lease Bill

Washington, August Discussion by
Senator LaFollette, republican, Wiscon-
sin, of the oil land leasing bill again to-
day prevented final action on the meas
ure. The Wisconsin senator Yielded the
floor late in the day after speaking II
hours in three days against the meas
ure. but announced that about two hours
more would be required to conclude his
speech.
Senator Smoot, republican. Utah, gave
notice when the Senate recessed until to-
morrow that if final vote was not
reached by o'clock tomorrow evening he
would ask for a night session.
The leasing bill, even as now framed,
Senator LaE'ollette said, was not satisfac-
tory to the navy and justice departments.
During his remarks the Wisconsin SEN
ator attacked the newspapers of the

After having made the charge several
years ago, he said the newspapers

BRYAN PRESENTS
HIS DUAL PLAN
/. FOR OWNERSHIP OF
|. NATIONS RA|[W WAYS

New York, August 20 Viii
liam Jennings Bryan today laid
today before the House inter-
state commerce committee his
dual plan of state and federal
ownership of railway lines as a
solution Of the railroad reor-
ganization probltm. In doing so
the former Secretary of State
denounced private ownership
of railroads as indefenslble
and intolerable and character
lied railroad magnates as po-
litical corruptionists.
1--WE have never tried government
ownership declared Mr. Bryan, refer
ring to the railroad administration. a
subsidized newspaper never thinks to
tell that the government took over the
railroads when the private owners coulo
not run them. The government mas
been only in temporary control, and
the roads in the hands of those who
wanted to see government ownership
fall, SO they cOulQ y Ell the TOduS Jam.
Mr. Bryan advocated that the federal
government own a skeleton trunk line
system, running into every state, which
in turn would own the other carriers
within the state boundaries. His plan,
he estimated, would cost the govern
ment four or five billion dollars. while
state ownership would be decided by
the people. who might decide for tenn :
porary private ownership.

STRONGLY PROTEST.
PROPOSED CONTROL.
PACKING INDUSTRY

pie to Curtail Production
Till Consumer Will Eat
the Whole Beef Carcass
BY Associated prsss

Washington, August 20.
Interfering some sharp advice
and warning to city jewellers as
to meat prices, western stock
men today laid before the
Senate agriculture committee
further protests against the
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS bills to regu-
late the packing industry.
I'm going home and tell my neigh
bors that we'll have to curtail produc-
ton to the point where consumers
will eat the whole beef carcass" said
George T. Donaldson, president Of the
Kansas State Live Stock association.
With ]. H. Mercer, cattle commissioner
al that state and others, he said he had
b&en investigating the distribution OF
mats in all the larger eastern cities-
fright in your city of Washington,
Ia al told the committee, I've found the
dore-quarters of beef selling to the re-
Mailer for IS cents a pound and selling
10 the consumer dt SCAilst " y AoN@-
Xhere are roo places here where meat
rs sold and we think that 100 would be
ample and reduce the cost to consum-
Sers, too"
Mr.. Donaldson opposed the regulatory
measures and Senator Kenyon, repub-
lican, of Iowa, asked him If he had
read the federal trade commission re-
port on the subject.
II have" replied Donaldson, and
regret to- say that I haven't as high
a regard for the federal trade commits
sion as an American citizen OF my age
ought to have"
Mr. Mercer, although opposing the
bills, said packers ought TO relinauish
ownership of the stock yards in favor
of producers.
II don't know that legislation could
accomplish the result" he remarked.
but they would save lot of agita-
ton by just getting rid of the yards"
wv. B. Tagg, an Omaha, Neb., live
stock dealer, said that commission
to regulate the industry and admins
| ter licenses would be preferable to a
single official. ]. H. Bachelor. another
Nebraska stock man, attacked the en-
tire proposal, as did most of the wit
nesses heard, and said that the high
price agitation was due largely to "peo-
aple who want six hours work and 16
hours pay

GOVERNORS PLEDGE
FULL COOPERATION
IN CAMPAIGN FOR
FAIR PRICE LEVEL

Washington, August 20,
New impetus was given the
governments campaign to re-
duce the cost of living at con-
ferences here today which as
sured the closest cooperation
between federal and state au-
thorities.
Six governors-Gardner of Missouri,
Milliken of Maine, Burnouist of Mime
sofa, Campbell of Arizona, Sproul OF
Pennsylvania and Cooper of South Car
olina and Lieutenant Governor McDow-
ell of Montana. representing the ma
several hours studying the situation
with Attorney General Palmer and then
called at the White House to offer Presi-
dent Wilson the full machinery Of the
states in the effort to restore normal
price level.
As result, there was greater optimism
in the capital tonight over the outlook
than has been evident in many days.
With the far-reaching state organiza-
lions carrying the message of economy
and increased production into every
county and aiding the federal authori-
ties in bringing to justice hoarders and
profiteers, officials believed excellent re
suits could be obtained in the next 81
days, which would avert the menace OF
transportation strikes to obtain higher
wages.
After our meetings today with the
President and the Attorney General,
the committee of governors announced
certain facts are clear
81 That all the people of the nation
and all organizations should Immediately
cooperate for the purpose Of increasing
the production of the necessaries OF life
80 That economy in consumption anc
care in purchasing the necessaries OF life
are eqsally important with production.
80 That every agency of the fedora
and state governments should Operate
forthwith to prevent profiteering.
THE Attorney General has assured ms
that he will prosecute under existing ano
proposed laws all profiteers.
ssThe suggestion of the Attorney Gen
eral that a fair price commissioner ot
appointed in each of the state and fail
price committees in the different local
tiles of the states, upon the nominations
OF the governors. was Endorsed.
