LONDON, July 2S.---Sir Robert Horne.
Minister Of Labor issued warning to
Great Britain this evening declaring
that the country will go TO the verge
OF disaster IL industry continues par
alyzed and that the only safeguard
against ruin is consistent unintermit-
tent work by every member of the COM
munity.
THE country" he said, has been de-
pleted of It's vast wealth. II has be-
come n debtor where 1t used TO be a
creditor nation. Every citizen must now
put forth greater effort ahan ever and
every man who refuses 10 do this mocks
our dead. Unless everybody is willing
to engage in honest toll the country will
be ruined irretrievably as II the Ger
mans had invaded the land. The great
masses of the people do not realize this
fact. The people are indulging In every
form of selfshness and no class is free
from criticism. Many manufacturers
are pronteeriRg at the expense Of the
community and many workmen are re-
fusing to give an adequate days work
for the pay they receive.
"Unless there is an awakening this ma
ton. which has proved its capacity for
courage and sacrifice, will go down to
disaster through its failure to use victory
wisely. 1t would have been far better to
have been beaten in the field, 80 that we
could have returned with chastened
spirit TO revive our fortunes by persist.
ent toll.
AT the present time our production In
all that is essential for the continuance
OF the nations success. has reached a
desperately low ebb. The lack Of coal IL
imperiling every community. II is in
conceivable that the men Of this nation
will refuse to respond when they realize
these facts"
Such plain statements of England's
dire straits are becoming increasingly
frequent, giving evidence OF the Govern
ments anxiety over the present economic
crisis. The Labor Minister'S statement
is said in some quarters to be over
drawn and made, possibly, with view
to influencing the vote now being taken
in the Triple Alliance upon the question
of direct action TO force the Government,
to change its policy with regard to Rus
sis and upon other vital questions.

Carl Van Dyke made the following
statement:

I'VE think that the cost OF food is
high now. but know that profteers-big
ones and little ones-are buying up
canned stuff and all sorts of food. As
the SPECTATORS and profteers bid against
each other the prices will steadily go up.
They are boasting that prices will sky

Special Despatch to THE Sos.

special DeSputch 10 IHE Sun.
CHICAGO, July 2S-Presidents Of the
packing companies which are assailed in
the latest report OF the Federal Trade
Commission gave out statements tonight
ments are based on summaries of the re-
port published in the newspapers.
The executives of the packing industry
declared that the attack upon them is a
continuation of propaganda directed
against them during tie last year by the
Federal Trade Commission. Answers
given to earlier attacks serve TO meet
the charges contained in the latest re-
port, they asserted.
Z. A. CudahN president of the Cudahy
Packing Company. said that the report
was an effort DO force the passage Of
bills that have the Endorsement Of the
commission. y He asserted that the fig
ures used by the commission merely
showed the large amount OF business
done by the packers and did not. through
any interpretation. indicate collision to
control and manipulate prices.
"As regards the alleged suppression
OF competition and unfairness to com
petitors and the public" said Mr.. Cuda-
nv, II wish to ray that the Federal
Trade Commission has the right to re-
ceive complaints or itself to file COM
plant and eliminate evils 1t seems TO
me that general charges of criminal
practices such as these are not justified
and that no such statements ought to be
made until a formal hearing has been
had with all parties represented. Con-
illusions based on testimony given at
! such a hearing would be worth some
thing"
Louis F. Swift, president of Swift q
Co., said:
The Federal Trade Commission Is Is
suing its report piecemeal. apparently
with the idea of keeping up continuous
| agitation against the packing industry.
This latest broadside, according to such
reports Of 1t as I have seen. repeats the
same old charges. contains the same mis-
representations, and does our industry
the same injustices as previous reports
have done The whole contention of the
| commission that we control and manipu-
! late prices Is not based on facts. Our
fuctuating profits. averaging only frac-
ton Of a cent n pound on meat and often
! becoming losses for weeks AZ a time, re-
flute this argument"

& Company. said:
THE present agitation is 30 per cent.

illusions, reached by them and to fasten

LONDON, July 2s,--All the miners In
Derbyshire who went on strike last week
returned to work to-day as a result Of
the settlement of the mining dispute
reached between the Miners Federation
and the Government
Late tonight the Yorkshire strike silt
uation. where 100000 miners are out
remained deadlocked. Neither side
seemed willing to make the first move to
bring the men and mine owners together
to discuss the Governments offer OF
piece rates and adjust other differences
Both sides apparently are waiting for
the Coal Controller to intervene.
1t is believed the men are ready to &C
cept the Governments offer and that
minor differences will not be difficuit to
adjust. 1t is estimated the strike has
already deprived the country Of 100000
tons Of coal.

spokesman, in the House Of Commons
said he thought 1t would be impractical.
