HOOVER WOULD
GUST ARCHDUKE
FROM THRONE
Says Resignation Can Be
Forced Within Five Days if
Supreme Council Acts.

Paris, Aug. 2l.-Herbert Hoover,
head of the international relief or
ganization, who has just returned
from a two weeks trip through CEN
trail Europe, told American CORE
spondents Thursday that it is i'm
perative that decisive diplomatic &C
ton be taken Immediately to dis
place Arckduke Joseph as head of
the Hungarian government and to
give Hungary a chance to estab-
lish a popular government.
The new countries OF central Eu-
rope, Mr.. Hoover said, are terror
lied by the tolerance shown to-
ward the setting up of the Haps-
burg government in Hungary.
Mr.. Hoover, who left Vienna
Monday night, appeared Thursday
before the supreme council.
In discussing the Hungarian sit
uation with newspaper men, Mr..
Hoover asserted that Archduke Jo-
seph's resignation can be forced
within five days if the supreme
council takes a firm stand, but that
bloodshed will result if such action
is postponed for a month.
The United States can prevent
the restoration of the Hapsburgs,
FMr. Hoover said, by refusing to
recognize or to deal with such a
government. 1t is beyond the en-
durance of any red-blooded Ameri-
can, he said, to see his govern
ment tolerate the restoration of the
Hapsburgs, as the United States en-
tered the war to Danish from the
world that for which the Haps-
bHgs and the Hohenzollerns stood.
The Roum2nians. he said, still
are requisitioning Hungarian food.
Only yesterday, he said, the Rou-
manians, under the eyes of Ameri-
can officers, seized eight truck loads
of medical supplies and food des-
tined for the children's hospitals
of Budapest.

have nothing but praise for the new
policy, and from the management's 5
view, they are satisfied in the re-
suits. The Orkin Bros. are going
to have to read more criticisms than
they bargained for, as it has been
a very popular contest.

Holt are the leads. 1t is very
amusing. The hero appears to. be
an escaped convict, but the real
criminal made him change clothes

in her car, has puncture, and the
supposed escaped convict helps her
to change her tire, she takes him
home and engages him as her chauf-
feur and then starts to reform him.

AT THE
THEAT ERS

TODAY and tomorrow, matinee
and night, constitute the last
times for the United States
Jazz Band and the other lively fea-
lures that have kept the Orpheum
filled all the week. For next week,
one of vaudeville's most extraordi-
nary artistic features is announced.
Martin Beck will present the Marion
Morgan Dancers in a dance drama
Of the time OF Attilla and the Huns.
Marion Morgan has been one of the
most serious and most intelligent of
American sponsors of choreographic
dancing. She has given the stage a
groupe of exquisite musical panto-
mines, but in her latest work it is
declared she has outdistanced her
self and produced a vehicle which
gives the fullest measure of the arts
necessary to production of this
kind.
With today's two final perform
ances the Gayety will bring to a
close the biggest opening week in
the history of musical burlesque in
Omaha. So satisfactory is Al
Reeves beauty show that it made
this fact possible. Tomorrow mat
inee, "The Beauty Trust" brand
new show, starts a weeks engage
ment. Omaha missed this sterling
attraction last season because of the
flu shutdown. The company
contains many new faces. Ladies'
matinee today and tomorrow at
2:l5.
A wonderfully we'll balanced bill
opened at the Empress yesterday,
the big hit Of the show being scored
by the musical offering, Days of
Long Ago" Four pretty young
women and a man comprise the
mixed quartette. Anderson and
Comes, with eccentric dancing,
brought the house down and put
their songs over with telling effect.
Raines and Avery have a good line
of songs and some breezy talk. Alan
son, in an acrobatic novelty, closes
very pleasing show.

Witnesses Discuss Kenyon
Bill to License Concerns and
Deprive Them of Stock

Washington, Aug. 2l.-Denuncia
ton and defense OF the big five
packers, their method and alleged
control Of the preparation and sup
ply Of foodstuffs were mingled ir
approximately equal proportions be
tore the senate agriculture commit
tee today, as witnesses discussed the
Kenyon bill, which proposes to Ii.
cense the concerns and deprive them
OF refrigerator cars and stock yard
facilities.
Henry w. Lynch, representing
stock raisers and their association
in California and Arizona, led the
defense, while Louis H. Haney OF
Jacksonville, Fla, appearing for the
Southern Wholesale Grocers' asso-
citation, made a direct and unquali-
ned attack on the packers and all
their activities.
Defines the Strength.
The packers growth and strength,
Mr.. Haney asserted, was due not to
their efficiency, but to their financial
power and their control of refrigerat-
ing service, which gives them the
privilege of common carrier with
out common carriers RESPONSE
bility."
They now have Is per cent OF the
wholesale grocers' business in the
United States, he said, and were
tending toward monopoly. The
wholesale grocers' interest in the
situation, he said, paralleled that of
the public, because the temporary
policy OF the packers in underselling
lobbers of food commodities would
be abandoned whenever they attain
cd practical monopoly.
Represents Selling End.
Mr. Lynch simply said that "the
packing industry represents the SELL
ing end of the stock raisers' bust
ness. When you demoralize or
hamper that-as this bill does-you
hurt u.s."
R. A. Eastwood Of Norfolk, Va,
a wholesale meat dealer, assured the
committee that he had always found
the packers fair and square in their
dealings"
We owe our success and pros
perity in business" he said, TO fol-
lowing as closely as possible the
packers methods"
Mr.. Haney dealt at considerable
length with the refrigerator peddler
cars, which he classed as store
houses on wheels, rendering an ex-
