In a speech before the s. A / A. A.
members, graduate manager, Charles

Georgetown was a member OF the as

/ Il would meet every team in the asso-
citation as far as possible.
"As long as Georgetown Is a men,
Der Of the S. A. /. A A. il expects to
meet all OF the other institutions.
This goes for Catholic University,
Maryland State, Virginia, Washington
and Lee and the others" said Cox. "If
the institution is to be permanent, all
OF the teams must observe the same
regulations, and there can be no sep
arate arrangements whereby a col

the Brookland lads meet those from

Arrangements Started.
So enthusiastic have the two instf-
tutiOns become that it is understood
preliminary arrangements have been
started whereby GEORGETOWN and
Catholic University can start of right
away with a basketball game. A
postseasOn contest is in prospect to-
day according to those vitality in
terested in the engagement.
Georgetown is possessed OF a first
class team and Catholic University
has one OF the best teams that has
represented the institution in many
years. The return of several players
Of high caliber from last year has
served to give the Brooklauders a.
strong second string team in addition
to boosting the strength Of the regu-
lars.
Proposition Discussed.
Students OF both institutions have
discussed the proposition from all
angles. 4 Georgetown-C. L. basket
ball meeting as a postseason posi-
bility is more or less attractive fnan-
cially and. as a high-class amuse-
n.ent. is expected to be a fact.
Catholic University is expecting to-
take up the proposition at a meeting
OF the athletic council shortly. That
7 proposition will be made to George
town in the near future is almost as
Sured by those working in the in
terests of meeting between the two
schools.

ter facilities for athletics right along.

construction, and is expected to be
completed shortly. In addition thsl

Yale. Harvard. and Princeton plan

Harvard, II is said, wants Princeton to
cut loose from Dartmouth in football
n order TO make the Harvard-Prince-
ton and Yale-PrinCetOn contests Of
greater Importance. Furthermore,
though nothing official has yet come
from either side, this may be done by
the Tigers. Yale may be induced to
drop Brown, which has become one
of the Blues strongest opponents in
recent years
That the "Big Three" is forming an
iron-Clad organization is apparent.
Harvard has dropped Cornell from its
track and rowing schedules, substt-
tuttng Princeton. Now come rumOrs
that all opponents who might detract
from the Importance OF Big Three

VAST QUANTITIES OF MEATS
IN STORAGE BY GOVERNMENT
May Account for High Cost of Liv-
ing-Do Packers Prevent Its Be-
ing Thrown on the Market?

Washington, June 23-Refering in
the house to the abnormally high
prices of the necessaries of life, Rep
resentative Fess of Ohio said:
81 was looking over the price cur
rent as furnished in the daily press
Meat is selling at price never known
before in the history of the country,
and, at the same time, so far as we
know, the product is not limited, but
rather, extended beyond normal. So
it would appear that the law of supply
and demand which has heretofore op-
Grated to control prices, does not op-
crate, and all of us are anxious to
know why it does not. 1t is pertinent
to ask what influence is at work to
interrupt this law.
81 have made little inquiry about
the amount of meats held by the gov
eminent, purchased for the purpose
of war, and | want to give you the
figures. would like to have the at
tention of the membership of the
committee as to these figures, for
know they must carry some signifi-
canoe when considered in the light of
the scaling high prices charged to the
public.
Quantities Held
Roast beef held by the government
on the Goth day of May, 100000
6-pound cans, which would be about
100000 pounds; 17,3000O0 2-pound
cand, or over 34,O00,00O pounds; o.
100000 one-pound cans, in addition to
a great number of 12-ounce tins, or
total approaching 120,000,000
pounds of roast beef.
"Corned beef, 100000 6-pound
cans, or 33,000,000 pounds; 100000
2-pound cans, or 36,000,000 pounds;
100000 1-pound cans; and 100000
12-ounce cans; corned beef hash, TO-
$4,000 l and 2 pound cans; bacon,
47,219,620 pounds.
"This represents about 282,000,000
pounds of meat held by the govern
ment, which, according to statement
of the packers, represented five
months of the activities of the pack
ing interests which were operating
to collect the meat products for the
government. In normal times it is
stated by the same authorities that
this would represent about two years
of activity.
Wants to Know
II am not, and every member will
recognize this, criticizing the govern
ment for purchasing these large
amounts, because it was donee in the
midst of war for the purposee of feed
ing the soldiers of an army the du
ration of which nobody could estimate,
and therefore the purchase is free of
criticism. But here is my question:
If the government is holding today
this vast number of pounds of meat
with country full of live stock and
the price of bacon, notwithstanding
this tremendous supply, has reached
the vanishing point of 60 cents, why
is it that there is not a freedom of the
law of supply and demand? And the
question Immediately comes to me,
wat is the policy of the govern
ment in its action on price fixing p !"
