PACKERS
 OBTAINED ANY
 SURPLUS STORES

Washington, Aug. 12-The packers have not purchased millions of dol lars worth of surplus army food stuffs at from 33 to 50 per cent of the original cost price to the govern ment.
 This statement was made last night by an official of the office of the Di- rector of Sales when his attention was called to Q statement credited to the New York Department of Markets that the packers have been permitted to gobble up surplus food through the submission of bids at a fraction of the price they charged Uncle Sam originally.
 The charge that Swift & Co. re- purchased S15,000,000 worth of food stuffs, presumably meats, and other packers in proportion, was declared to be absurd. It was pointed out that the auction over the sale of surplus food followed the opening of bids by the pockers offering the Govern rnent 50 per cent or less for their own products. All of these bids were re- jected.

AGAINST GIVING ASYLUM TO KUN
 LATE DICTATOR

Berlin, Monday, Aug. 11-By A. P.) Governmental discussion in Vienna Is centering about the problem as to whether BeIa Kun. the erstwfi1e Bol- shevik dictator of Hungary, should be accorded asylum in Austria or be de- nvered to the first country demanding him for trial according to advices re- ceived here from the Austrian capital It is said that sentiment is decidedly against granting him asylum.
 Plans for a coalition cabinet at Bu- dapest appear further from solution than ever since the declination of Paul Garani, Socialist leader, to participa te in a government having a Hapsburg a t its head. Premier Friedrich has an nounced that the National Assembly will convene within eight weeks He says that it will meet on a basis of a republican state but NJ. Lovassay, who has been named for a post in the De- partnlent of Instruction. has declared ernment will be decided on only after his arrival in Budapest from Switzer- land. He Is said to agree thoroughly with Dr. Wilhelm Vaszony, q Hungar- ian Socialist leader, who is also on his way home from Switzerland and who is urging the formation of a Democratic Liberal Cabinet in which the whole national strength could be concentrated.

LEAGUE DRAFT COMBINATION OF ALL ALLIES PLANS Legal Adviser to Committee
 At Versailles
 Testifies, SHUTS IDEA BASIS FOR CONSIDERATION Miller Never Heard of New York Lawyers Making
 Plan.

Washington, Aug. 12-The plan for a League of Nations used as a basis of discussion at Versailles was not tn any of the drafts submitted by the United States, Great Britain, Trance or Italy, butwas combination of all them, the Senate Foreign Relations Committee was told today by David Hunter Miller, legal adviser to the League of Nations Committee at Yer sai1les.
 Chairman Lodge said President Wilson had told the committee at the White House in March that the Brit ish plan drawn by General Shuts was used as a basis of consideration, but the witness protested that such was not his recollection The plan taken as a basis of discussion, said he, twas modelled to some extent on the other plans, but it was not the Shuts pfan."
 The witness said he had submitted memoranda on the American plan, but did not see the finished product until it was printed in the form trans mitted to the committee yesterday by President Wilson.
 "Where did the plan como from? ?" asked Senator Lodge.
 q suppose 1t came from the Pres~ ident.''
 What became of it?''
 T think it was submitted to the commission on the League of Ma tions. I didn't personally have any, thing to do with it.'
 Questioned by Senator Brandegee, Republican, Connecticut, MT. Miller said he was a law partner of Gordon Auchinc1oss, son-in-law of Colonel E. M. House, one of the American dele gates to the peace conference.
 Did you have any experience in International affairs, in drafting rea- ties?'' asked Senator Brandegee.
 'fNot prior to my appointment as special assistant in the State Depart nlent, shortly after the United States entered the war"
 MT. Miller said he never had heard of any plan for a League drafted by New York lawyers and taken to Paris by the President.
 Senator Brandgee asked -"as of what date' the territorial integrity" mentioned under Article Ten of the covenant was to be guaranteed.
 T understand the boundaries and territorial integrity of Nations are to be guaranteed primarily as they ex- isted at the signing of the treaty and secondarily as they may be deterrnin ed under the treaty by plebiscite. for instance"
