Suits Against Packers Are First Concrete Development of Governments Campaign - President Refuses to Postpone Date of Address to Congress-Results of Shoe Industry Investigation Are Announced

taken by every factor in the trade. The packers, tanners, manufacturers and retailers all shared in the blame. The report was placed before Attorney General Palmer today.
 The hoarder is the big part of tha game right now" in the opinion of the government officials in charge of the efforts to bring down prices, and At torney General Palmer indicated today that he was depending largely on the section of the Lever act dealing with hoarding as one of the most immediate means of forcing prices down.
 The price gouger can be reached in another way" the attorney general said adding that there was not much difference between hoarding and prof iteering.
 Wartime Laws Operative
 The attorney general today pointed out that all of the wartime laws gov erning production and distribution of foodstuffs still were in force and that they would be used to the fullest ex- tent. The conditions confronting the country now, he said, are properly classed as resulting from the War and are part of war conditions.
 Testifying before a senate committee Investigating living conditions in the District of Columbia, Thomas E. Will son, president of Wilson and company and chairman of the Institute of Amer ican Meat Packers. declared that the packers were not profiteering. The high cost of living, he told the com mittee, was world problem and not local
 "The world is on a holiday and peo pie are spending money like drunken sailors without producing" he added.
 Packer Makes Statement
 Later upon learning of the decision of the department of justice, MT. Will son made this statement:
 The facts shown by the federal trade commission do not justify a suit by the government. The department Of justice is looking around for somebody to blame and naturally they intended to make the packers the mark. I don't think the suits is the way to go about it. The department of justice will get no satisfaction out of the packers and will do no good in reducing prices"

 IN 6 DAY RICE

New York, Nov. 14-McNamara and Magin have finally come to terms to ride in the siX-day bicycle race at Madison Square Garden during the week of Nov. 30 to Dec. 6. The win ners of last years grind will receive a boost over their 1918 price and are confident of taking down the big end of the $30,000 to be offered in prize money. No stronger team ever en- tered the race, but the competition this year will be far greater than ever before and at least six teams can be depended on to make this pair show their best.
 McNamara's sensational sprinting has been a feature of several stx-day races. In five starts in the New York race he has been third three times, second once and first once. Mac" did not ride in the 1917 race, having broken his jaw in a jam while riding in the Boston contest. Magin also is a star and the team will be one of the favorites to win the coming event.
