James VI. Beck Spoke Against Cove
nant Here Saturday Night.


nant Here Saturday Night.
viewed from every angle, James NJ
Beck told a crowd in the auditorium
Saturday night. the League of Nations
is of little value and not to be desired
by the American people. In its pres
emit form, Beck charged. this country
would be thrown into the political dis
turbances of every European nation.
Participat ton of this country under
the covenant would compel keener OBJ
servation of the overseas trouble
clouds and would arouse discord and
discomfort at home, Beck asserted. He
said that at best the covenant was but
an experiment. He said such pact
formed for defensive and offensive
purposes had never proven successful
and would not be successful in the
present case. Commenting on Article
10, Beck asserted that it proposes the
United States should underwrite with
the blood of its own sons the terri
torial integrity of the world.
Beck. who formerly held the office
of assistant attorney general of the
United States. is rated as one of the
most able speakers in the country. He
Is touring a number of mid-western
states in opposition to the league pact
and in answer to the speeches of Pres
ident Wilson. In his speech here he
said the league controversy was not
matter for political consideration. The
issue is far above partisa nship. he de-
clared. and opposition is found in the
following of President Wilson and
among many strong and able Republi-
cans. while some of the leaders of the
Democrat party in the nation were
strong in their opposition to the cove
nant as presented to congress.

EFFECTIVE CONTROL
 IF TT MUST COME
Packing Interests Want No Such MuddIc as Government Made
 of Railroads.

Washington, Aug. 27.-"Unless we can be assured of more efficient and economical governmental control than was the case with the railroads, the telegraph and telephone companies, neither the producer nor the con- sumer can hope to benefit from such legislation," Everett c. Brown, presi- dent of the National Livestock Ex- change, which is composed of stock yard brokers, told the senate agri- culture committee late yesterday. He appeared in opposition to the Kenyon and Kendricl bills proposing license regulation of the packing industry and transfer of refrigerator cars and stockyards.
 MT. Brown took exception to testi- mony given by Federal Trade Com- missioner ColVer and remarked that 'in our great industry it has seemed more proper to speak of the 'tirade' commission than the trade commits sion.''
 Refrigerator car development, Mr. Brown classes as a bright spot in the history of the packing industry and urged caution in legislating upon their use.
 The federal control act gave the Railroad administrat tion the right to take over these cars, but they care fully refrained from doing so,' he said. ''The Interstate Commerce commission, after careful study, con- fessed that only inefficiency could re- suit from turning the cars over to the railroads.'
 Ownership of the stocl<yards by the packers, MT. Brown said, was not a cause for objection by shippers so long as competition was maintained and yard charges were reasonable.
 If, in the face of many protests, congress, in it's wisdom, elects to dis turb this industry" he said, in con- cludlng, II respectfully urge that new laws defining what shall constitute crimes and misdem eanOrs, and pro Viding punishment therefor, would be more effective than the licensing sys- tenn. If the licensing system must, as last resort, be adopted, the com mission men, acting solely as the Ii- eXem pted. If regulation must come, let it be by a comm misSion not the present federal commission Do not interfere With refrigerator cars unless and until a better method of distr- button is devised"

Aid to Industrial Cripples

Congressman Ramseyer of Iowa has
taken strong stand in advocacy of
the bill proposing to extend aid to the
States for the vocational rehabilitation
of persons disabled in industrial pur-
suits. He bases his argument on the
close his shop to any but union mem
bers, they step over the line, for they
are then setting themselves up as
class organization, superior to all but
members of their organization and as
sailing the American principle of equal
rights with no special privileges, die
Eating to third parties not members
of their organization what he, she or
they may do.
This method of procedure is un-
American from start to finish and if
carried out would destroy the very
foundation of our government.
A non-union man has just as much
right to a job in this nation as a
union man and Mr. Gary is doing a
real service to the nation in standing
for recognition of this American prin-
ciple.
The U. S. must not be dictated to
by an organization, capital, labor or
political. Arbitration and mediation
are not at issue in this case as there
is nothing to arbitrate.

BALD HEADS AT PEACE TABLE

peace conference at Versailles is

but took notes regarding the hair.
mustaches. boards and whiskers Of the
peacemakers.
Two-thirds OF the delegates were
more or less bald. Perhaps some OF
them made up for this by wearing
mustaches. Out OF IS men who sat
round the peace table, all had mus
taches but Il.
Whiskers, on the other hand, were
not popular. Only three people wore
them, and by curious coincidence
began with v. They were Venlzelos
of Greece, vandervelde of Belgium
and vassitch of Serbia. The latter's
whiskers were particularly prominent.
In regard to dress, there was less
formal attire than one might have
imagined. The English paid no special
attention to dress. High hats and frock-
coats, once a combination that would
never have been sanctioned, were
quite popular; but there were some
countries which put all they knew into
their attire. These were. notably. the
japanese. and some of the South
American states.
