MIDDLE Things Up.

Washington, Jan. 28.--Any legisla-

the meat industry would just mud
die things up Edward Morris, presi-
dent of Morris & Co, said today in
continuing his testimony before the
house Interstate, commerce committee.
Before the senate agriculture COM

president of Armour & Co., advocated
certain regulatory legislation and said

approval.
Mr.. Morris said today the meat
industry now was being operated at
the highest degree of efficiency pos
