complaint whatsoever 10 make about
the purchasing Of our cattle. The big
fellows compete with one another and
they have Kentuckians as their agants
and they always deal with us fairly,
openly and honestly. We think it I'M
wise to disturb the excellent system
the packers have built up and are
strongly opposed to centralizing con-
troll Of the foodstuffs Of America in
the hands of one mana government
official. During the war it was
right; but now we want to get just
as far away from Washington and
the politicians as we possibly can.
"The case for our country is this:
We have from $4,000 to 1000 cattle.
In the summertime we finish them
on the blue grass and have to sell
them. Somebody has to take them off
our hands, because we cannot eat
them and cannot get them to the con-
sumers. The packer is the only per-
son who can do it properly. If the
packer is going to be destroyed,
somebody will have to take his place
"My opinion is that the packer
should be considered great blessing,
instead of being condemned. Look
what he does with chickens and eggs.
He gathers them in time of plenty
and keeps them in storage until times
of scarcity. Thus. he maintains a
reasonable price at all times. You
gentlemen considering these things
should realize that you can't legislate
to make hen lay an egg. That's
what would be necessary if the pack
ers were put out of business.

in this session in behalf of the
discharged soldiers of the army"
With usual Republican mac
curacy, Mr.. Mondel1 failed to
state the whole truth. What he
should have said was that the
land bill is the only soldier meas
ure the Republicans have per-
mitted to see the light of day.
Many bills beneficial to the SOL
diers have been offered by Demo-
Gratis, but because Democrats
proposed them they have been
pigeon holed in committee.
"Uncle Joe" Cannon, whose
partisanship is mellowing with
age, and Representative Charles
Nichols, of Detroit, who is more
of an independent than he is a
Republican, were the moving
spirits against the Mondell bill
in the Republican conference.
Uncle Joe" ridiculed the idea
that soldier bill should be
made party measure, while Mr..
Nichols indicated rather plainly
that the Mondell bill is a Joke in
its present form and insisted that

BACK
UP ON MONDELL BILL

Washington, D. C., Sept s.
Party discussion is the latest
development in the Republican
Congress which has been stag
mated by inefficiency and lack Of
constructive leadership ever since
the G. o. P. came into control OF
the legislative branch of the gov
eminent.
The split occurred at a Repub-
lican House caucus this week
Meeting behind closed doors, the
Republicans berated each other
for their failure to stand together
on what they were pleased to
term party question" and then
turned their guns on the Monde1l
soldier land bill of which the Re-
publican floor leader is the
sponsor.
From the viewpoint of the
country's fighting forces in the
recent war, the opposition to the
Mondell bill is the most import
ant The determination of a
large majority of the Republican
House membership not to accept
this measure in the form in which
it has been framed merely echoes
the sentiment previously ex-
pressed by Democratic leaders.
Representative Ferris of Okla
homa, the former Democratic
chairman of the Committee on
Public Lands, has repeatedly
warned the Republicans that the
soldiers were not satisfied with
the bill which seeks to parcel
among them only undeveloped
arid and swamp lands of the
west and south.
Evidently Mr.. Ferris demand
that the provisions of the bill be
broadened has had it's effect on
the Republicans, because at their
party cadcus they literally made a
football of their floor leaders
pet measure. Only an ardent
plea by Mr.. Mondell not to put
the House majority in the hole
prevented a straightout repudia-
ton of his proposal.
Prom party standpoint" he
said, ut would be most unfor-
tunate to have the word 60 forth
to the country that the Republi-
cans in Congress had decided to
postpone, at least for the pres
INT, any further action on the
only bill that has been introduced

from real estate parties in Indi-

Meets Brothers For First Time

Rev. II. 5. Early, the converted
Catholic, formerly of Olney, ILL.,,
but now living in Ohio, is max
ing a tour of this section of the
state and is in Richmond this
week. He has been solicited to
give his lectures in several of the
country churches, and will visit
among the pastors of this city,
and make arrangements for a
lecture here before leaving. Rev.
Early had quite delightful ex-
perience in West Virginia last
week when he visited St. >Mary's,
and met two of his brothers he
had never seen, his mother and
father having died when he was
in his infancy, and the children
had been scattered from the
home ties.

To Take Refrigerator Cars Away
From Packers and Put Cow
eminent Official In Charge

Washington, Sept. 9.-The South
apparently is at the Threshold of the
greatest. era Of prosperity in its his
tory. Development of the livestock
industry, in which the big packing
companies of America are pointing
the way, rapidly is leading to vast
increase in the wealth of the country
below the Mason-Dixon line and in
dications are that within the next few
years the Southern states, instead of
existing on starvation" cotton will be
reaping fat and continuous profits
from the sale of live stock and meat
products.
These facts have been developed at
the hearings by the Senate Agricul-
tural Committee on the Kenyon,
Kendrick and other bills to regulate
and license the meat packing industry
of the United States. Witnesses from
all parts of the South have appeared
before the committee and entered
vigorous protests against the propos-
ed legislation on the ground that if
the business of the packing COM
panies-especially the so-called "Big
Five; Swift, Armour, Norris, Will
son and Cudahy-was disrupted, the
growth Of the South and it's new
found source of wealth would be
smothered.
The bills under consideration by the
committee-based on a misleading
and inaccurate report about the pack
ing industry issued by the Federal
Trade Commission-would take the
packers refrigerator cars away from
them, prevent them from owning
stockyards, prohibit them from deal
\ ing in anything else except meat pro-
duets and put the entire business I'M
der license system, the head of
which would be government official
with arbitrary powers and appointed,
probably, for political reasons.
Farmers from all over the United
States have appeared before the COM
mittee in opposition to the bills on
the ground that if enacted. in to law
they would tend to ruin their bust
ness. Witnesses from this South
especially those from Georgia, Ala
bama, Tennessee, Louisiana, Ken
lucky and Texas--told of the deve-
lopment of the livestock industry in
their states and the encouragement
and help given them BY the big pack
ing companies and declared that if the
packers were to be hobbled by un-
warranted government interference,
the producers Of the South would be
among the heaviest sufferers.
Directors to the proposed legisla-
ton from Kentucky were headed by
Henry L. Prewitt, an attorney OF
Mount Sterling. With him before the
committee were Warren Rogers,
farmer Of Bourbon county; Lem Tip
ton, farmer Of Montgomery coun-
ty; Walter Sharp, a farmer Of Bath
county and John Duvall, a farmer Of
Clark county.
1--WE are against this legislation"
said Mr.. Prewitt, 1--WE depend alb
solutely upon the packers to purchase
our cattle in Kentucky. I live on q
farm and know what I am talking
about.
"The packers have always always
treated us fairly. They come to our
farm and buy from us. We have no

 The Alabama State Fair grounds, where the picnic is to be held is becoming the foremost thought in the minds of all colored people throughout Jefferson county. The programme that has been worked out for the occasion comprises the very best talent from every line Of diversion that Birmingham and the coun- ty affords.
 Plans for the night celebration have been given over to the war work coun- cil and will be directed by Prof. $. E. Moses, at the city park, on Fifth ave nue. between Sixteenth and Seventeenth streets, where addresses will be made according to the statement of Professor Moses. by noted speakers of both races. Lieut. Moton H. Gray will have charge of the exhibition drills and military ac- tivities affecting the soldiers for that day. and it is understood that nam moth exhibition drill consisting of sew eral battalion movements, will be fea- tured
 Lieutenant Gray urges that all dis charged sailors and soldiers go to the Peoples drug store, T52 Third avenue. as soon as possible and register, so that the committee will know just how many men will participate in the exhibition. A very urgent plea is also made that the men get their uniforms in the very best condition, as every man IS expected to be looking his best. and to also have with him his helmet, gas mask, or what ever other equipment he may have. Every soldier who has served in any branch of the service is extended an in vitation to participate.
