OPPOSES A COMMITTEE
OF LIVE STOCK INDUSTRY
Senator Kendrick, Author of Bill
for U. S. Regulation, Says
New Plan Faulty.

Senator Kendrick of Wyoming. who
introduced bill at the last session of
Congress providing for government
regulation of the meat t-packing indus
try, has issued statement opposing
the creation of a conference commit
tee Of the live stock industry" as has
been proposed. for the adjusting of
differences between the packers. stock
raisers and the government. He de-
Clared Il permanent solution of this sit
uation could not be obtained through
the work of such a committee.
The interest of packer. producer
and consumer" said Senator Hendricks
may be conserved, according to my
judgment, only by legislation which
shall, in the first place. remove all
grounds for misunderstanding and
distrust, and, in the second place. give
full publicity to all the activities of
both the producing and the consuming
markets.
mo conference committee can bring
about these results, because no con-
ference committee can destroy the alb
solute control which d few packers
now exert over the stock markets on
the one hand and the distributing sys-
TENS on the other. 1t is essential that
the packers be divorced from owner
ship and control of the Stockyards
and that the refrigerator car system
of the country be placed absolutely at
the service of all shippers upon equal
terms. These reforms may be secured
only by legislation"

Good tomatoes are high and scarce

price was $21 last fall. During the
winter prices dropped slightly under

the government minimum price guar
antee was taken of nearly month

At the United States bureau of

ascribed to heavy demand coupled

indorsed the governments demand for
the retention OF the lu9uries tax by
eliminating from the budget bill an
article inserted by the chamber of

There were violent protests in the
chamber against the senate's action.
Deputies advocated the suppression
of the 1uxuries tax, arguing that
it was not wanted by merchants and
workmen. The session continued

Protective League Ceases.

The only exception to this long-es
tablished policy, if it can be called an
exception, was the formation during
the war of the American Protective
League, which was organized with
the approval of the Attorney General
and operated under the direct super
vision of the bureau of investigation
of this department. During the war
there was need for such an organiza-
ton auxiliary to this department and
the members of the American Protec-
tive League rendered service of the
greatest value. Nevertheless, my
predecessor, Attorney General Greg
ory, requested that this organization
be disbanded and. in conformance to
his wishes, it went out of existence
on February l.

UNOFFICIAL ESPIONAGE
Attorney General Palmer Says De-

No Private Connections.

The Department of Justice will not
recognize private organizations, or
have any connection with them when
they seek to continue during peace
the espionage work undertaken dur
ing the war to protect the public
safety, according to an announcement
made by Attorney General Palmer.
During the past two months said
the Attorney General, my department
has received communications from
number of private organizations call
ing attention to the fact that they
had been formed for the purpose of
Systematically detecting violations of
law and courteouSly offering to sup
ply the Department of Justice with
information of this character gath
cred by them.
1T will be impossible for my de-
partment to have any connection, Of
fetal or semi-official. with these or
RarIzations." said Mr.. Palmer. This
department welcomes at all times in
formation which is germane to its
work from whatever source 1t may
come. II has been the traditional
policy of this department, however,
grounded on sound reasons. not to
confer it's sanction upon private or
and not to establish with
them any relations of the official or
semi official character.
