IN REFRIGERATOR CARS
Chairman Colver Asserts Railroads
Discriminate for "Big Five"
Meat Packers.

Such discrimination is shown by the
railroads in favor of the big five"
packers in the movement Of refrigera-
tor cars that the independents soon
find it Impractical to operate them, ac-
cording to testimony by Chairman
Colver Of the Federal Trade Commits
sion before the House interstate COM
merce committee yesterday.
Mr.. Colver declared the operation OF
refrigerator cars by Independent meat
packers is theoretically possible, but
in reality losing venture"
Railroads furnish such poor serv-
ice to small packers that they soon
find they cannot afford to continue to
operate the cars he said. 'Marke ID
discrimination of service has been
shown in many instances. Cars oper-
ated by the big FIVE, averaged eighty
miles day, while the average of all
other refrigerator cars is fifty-four
miles"
Mr. Colver said the large packers
"wield traffic club over. the rail-
roads and threaten to take their bust
ness away unless perfect service is
given"
He introduced into the record let
tiers said to have passed between the
Swift Refrigerator Packing Company
and the Missouri, Kansas and Texas
railway, showing how the railroad
was to dismantle a stockyard at Fort
Worth. Tex, which operated in COM
petition with yards owned jointly by
Armour & Co., and Swift & Co. before
the packers would give the road any
traffic from that point"

Nor is it necessary that there be leg
islative authorization for the job held
down without remuneration, unofh-
cial jobs are those that have no leg
islative standing; and such are the
sort in which a man may WORK lof
nothing year.
This is reversal of prevailing lay
opinion that. the government Will not
take something for nothing IN the
way of service. The contrary seems 10
be allowed by the law and It's inter
probation that everything that any
one wants to give the government
money or service, is acceptable.
There are lots of people doing war
work for the government without
cent of pay of any sort. There are
actually few, if any, ''doiiar-a-year
workers.

MERCY IN PRISONS
PROMISED BY HUNS
Agreement Negotiated by
Americans Set New Stand
ard of Humane Treatment.

The text of the agreement relating
to the treatment. of prisoners of war.
framed by the American-Ge joint
commission. which completed it's la
hors at Berne, Switzerland. November
II. the day the armistice was signed
was made public last night by the
State Department. The agreement
never was ratified, however. as the en-
tire work of the commission was null
lifted by the armistice.
Because of its far-reaching provi-
sions for the health and comfort of
prisoners the document is unique
among international agreements Alb
solutely nothing. was left to chance
or to the good faith of the contract
ing countries. The agreement set up
machinery which, with the aid of neu-
trail governments, would have insured
inspection of all camps
The definite written pledges which
the American commissioners obtained
from the German members as to the
rights OF war prisoners are regarded
humane in diplomatic history. Among
the striking provisions are several
which appeared to be directed at
brutal practices charged to German
authorities in the conduct of certain
camps and which aroused violent pro-
test in allied countries and the
United States.
One of the 1874 articles, touching on
this phase of the camp situation,
says:
Dogs shall not be used as guards
In the interior of prison camps nor
IN guarding working or exercise de-
tachments. unless they are in leash
or securely muzzled UnmuZzled dogs
shali under no circumstances be used
IN tracking down escaped prisoners
AS to the treatment of prisoners
generally, standards for the main
tenance OF troops of each country
were set as those applying to camps
The agreement covered even the de-
talls as to how barracks were to be
furnished and the amount of food,
calculated in Galleries, to be given the
men daily in accordance with. the
laoors they were physically able to
perform.
Special consideration was demanded
for the sick and wounded. Collective
punishment growing out of the mis-
conduct of individual prisoners was
document imposed regulations which
were intended to eliminate the prison
camp horrors charged against the
Germans.
Members Of the American commits
sion were John w. Garrett minister
to the Netherlands; John w. Davis,
now ambassador to Great Britain ;
Maj. Cen. F j. Herman and Henry H
