CONFIDENTIAL REPORT MADE PUBLIC NOW
Hoover's Ideas of Solving the Packing Industry in
 Report to Wilson
 Is Published.

WASHINGTON, March 3.-A confi- dential report made to President Wilson by Herbert C. Hoover six months ago on the big meat packers was made public today by the Food Administration at the direction of the President "to establish the real po- sition of MT. Hoover and the Food Administration on the control of the Chicago packing industries" In re- cent hearings before Congressional committees witnesses for the live stock men charged collision between MT Hoover and the five leading pack CTS.
 In the report, in response to re quest from the President for his views on the reco o.nmendation of the Federal Trade Commission, MT. Hoov CT said he reaffirmed his opinion given nearly year before that "here is a growing and dangerous domina- tion of the Nations foodstuffs," and proposals. He recommended con- structive regulation rather than the stretching temporary war powers of the Government, and expressed the belief that the domination of tho packers did not necessarily imply wrong doing on their part, but was the natural outgrowth "of various factors which need correction
 MT Hoover accepted as economi- cally sound the Federal Trade Com missions recommendation regarding Federal control of animal and refrig- orator car service, and said stock yards should be entirely disassoc- lated from the control of the pack CTS" He contended, however, that wrong practices between buyers and sellers would not be corrected by the Government controlling or owning the yards.

Transports to Improve
Pacific Mail Service

With the sailing of the army trans
port Great Northern for San Francisco
yesterday, announcement was made
that the ship and her sister craft, the
Northern Pacific, are to be used per-
manently in the transport service on
the Pacific. The Northern Pacific will
follow the Great Northern to the west
coast in about six weeks, both vessels
making the passage through the Pana-
ma Canal.
Their regular route will be from
San Francisco to Honolulu, Manila,
Vladivostok and thence to Nagasaki,
Guam. Honolulu and San Francisco.
When the American forces are brought
out of Siberia they will come on these
craft, which have made an unusual
record in the transport service to and
from France. They will be able to
make the trip from San Francisco to
Manila in fifteen days, thus improving
the mail service between those ports.
These ships were purchased by the
army from the Great Northern Rail
road Company at the outbreak of the
war. They were among the largest
craft on the Pacific and are oil burners.

Guard Association Calls
Training Bill Prussian
Says 1t Provides for COnscrip-
ton of Citizens in Time
Of Peace

WASHINGTON, Aug. 23-The Cham
berlain-Kahn bill, proposing six months
compulsory military training for all
youths between the ages of 10 and 26,
was characterized as "crude and incom-
plete" and patterned after the "Prus-
sian system" in statement issued
here to-day by the organization COM
mittee Of the National Guard Associa-
ton of the United States, of which
Colonel John B. Rose is chairman.
The effect Of the bill, particularly the
provision to create "home guard" or
an organization which those who had
competed training might enter as an
alternative to being subject to a years
peace-time service in the army, would
be to destroy the National Guard" the
statement SAID.
The provision for years service in
the regular army after training was
criticised as meaning transcription for
our citizens in time of peace" The cost
OF the system, estimated in the state
ment at between one and half and
two billion dollars annually, the COM
mittee declared to be prohibitive.
The plan was branded as "Prussian-
istic' because 1t puts the whole sys-
TEN" under control Of regulations to
be adopted by the General Staff.

three hundred veterans of the world war
met here tonight to organize Quentin
Roosevelt Post of the American Legion.
The boys of this village, fifteen in num-
Der, obtained permission from the ma
tional headquarters of the legion to
name the post after the youngest son of
the former President. Lieutenant Roose-
welt was one of the first to enlist from
the village, and was the first local boy
to give his life.
At the meeting tonight committees
were appointed to suggest permanent
officers. Lieutenant Colonel Theodore
Roosevelt addressed the boys, with many
of whom ne had gone to school. He ex-
planned that the legion was a non-par-
titsan organization and that it had been
formed to benefit the veterans along the
lines of the veterans associations of
other wars.
Americanization, he said, of all people
in this country was desired and he
hoped the American Legion would estab-
fish a standard which future generations
would follow
