PACKING PLANT
BILL OPPOSED
BY WITNESSES
Packers, Stock Raisers And
Dealers Appear Against
Kenyon-K endrick Bill

Washington, Sept. 3.-Heads of the
two largest packing plants in the
United States outside OF the Big
Five a scattering Of stock raisers and
meat dealers, and a representative of
the Chicago Board Of Trade were
among the opponents Of thes Kenyon
and kendrick and Kenyon bills for
the regulation Of the packing industry

they mad heen paid expenses by the
packers after appearing bIore 20
xrsssi0nas committees on a previous
occasion when legislation considered
fnirnfcai by the Big Five" was under
consideration. but both men insisted
they did not expect reimbursement for
this trip,
J.. r, Gates, for the Chicago Board
OF Trade. gave the committee a ~
cific argument in opposing the bills.
"Thf. is A law OF rules and execu-
tive orders" he said. referring to the
Kenyon bill. rather than a law OF
specific provisions. A change,of ex-
"cu.iyes means a change in the rn-
quircments OF the law upon the citi-
zen. Men cannot tell from day to day
what is legal under 1t.
1T is an instance. I think, Of the
habit of IegisIatfnE blanket authority
to executive departments which grew
up during the war.

SUGAR METHODS
ARE EXPLAINED
Misunderstanding Lead to
Unjust Charges Against
Grocers of the City.

Retail grocers of the city say that
some misunderstanding exists among
Grand Forks consumers regarding the
conditions governing the distribution
Of sugar, and as a result the retailers
have, in some instances, been u%ntustly
accused Of favoritism.
The facts Of the cas- are that the
retailers generally have adopted the
policy OF accepting advance orders
for limited amounts of sugar for de-
livery when possible. When ship
mcnts of sugar have arrived these or
ders have been filled as far az pos
sible in the order received.
In many cases,. however. 1t has
taken two or three days to I'LL such
orders after the arrival of the sugar.
AS a result, consumers who have tried
to obtain sugar and have bee told
that none was available, have some
times learned OF the delivery Of sugar
to their neighbqrs during the same
period, and have jumped to the con-
clusion that unfair discrimination
was being practiced.
As a matter OF fact in such cases
the grocers have simply been filling
orders previously received In the fair
est manner possible. The amount
sold. to each customer has been carr
fully regulated, and every effort has
been made to prevent unfair dtscrim.

DISEASE MUST
BE REPORTED.
Clarnan Says that State Law
Will be Enforced in the
City in Future.

Strict observance Of the law requir-
ing the reporting of communicable
diseases will be required in future of
both physicians. and laymen, Samuel
Claman. city health officer, said. to-
day.
Mr.. Claman called attention to tho
fact that in many cases diseases may
be carried by persons who are appar-
entity in perfect health. For this rea
son a strict quarantine is necessary.
For example we have recently had
a number of cases of diphtheria in the
city, said Mr.. Claman, there are two
such cases at present. Anyone having
a sore throat should Immediately con-
suit a physician in order that any dis
ease may Immediately be detected.
This is a public duty as otherwise the
disease may spread rapidly.
Recently we had a case in which
three girls lived together in one room.
One Of them was stricken with diph-
liberia. In spite Of this it was found a
few days later. hat the other two
girls who had disappeared. and so
could not be placed in quarantine,
had been seeking employment in q
local restaurant.
There has also been laxity on the
part of physicians in reporting COM
municable diseases. Cards hava now
been distributed for these reports to
be made on, and I intend to see that
the law. is strictly complied with in
future"

done away with at the outbreak of the
war.
Authority from the war department
Of infantry and one field hospital,
motorized. as the North Dakota Ma
tional Guard has been received, &C
cording to Col. Frame.
The actual organization of the guard
will probably not be taken up until
practically all Of the officers and men
of the army and members of the old
National Guard units have returned,
the colonel stated this morning.
Want More Men.
The adjutant general of the state
is to take the initiative in the organi-
zation of the National Guard, but very
little has been done up to the present
time. as the officers and men are
waiting until all men are back from
~sstvice. There is little doubt but that

Catell0 Says Great Britain
Created Difficulties at the
Conference For DUN Purpose
Declare. People OF Fiiume
Would Trust The United
States But Not A League
OF Nations To Procure
Their Rights In Answering
Question By Moses.

Washington. Sept. 5.-British in
terests at the peace conference de-
created difficulties as to
their respective ideals of peace" be-
tween Italy and the, United States for
economic reasons. State Senator S. A.
Cotello of New York declared today
before the senate foreign relations
committee: He appeared in behalf OF
Italy's claims to Fiumes
Italian national development in the
Mediterranean had been prevented
by the British. he said, and "a cordial
understanding between the United
States and Italy would mean a reduc-
ton Of English power in Europe"
Answering a question by Senator
Moses, Senator Cotello declared that
while the people of Fiume would
trust the United States. they would
not trust a League of Nations to pro-
cure their rights
ITALY is tired of depending polite-
ally and economically upor Germany
and is unwilling to depend on Eng
land or France he said.
English dominance forbids Italy
to reach her development in the
Mediterranean and the world" he
continued, and since a good under
standing between Italy anG the United
States meant reducing of British
power. obstacles had beer placed at
Paris in the way of that understand
ing.
William H. Field of New Jersey,
who said he had been in Paris dur
ing the peace conference. said he
would file with the committee docu-
ments to show that Colonel f. II.
House had favored the awarding OF
Fiume to Italy and that only Presi-
dent Wilson had opposed that action.
He said also that he would submit
papers showing that opposition to
come from the German banking
house Of "Warburg'' because of Ger
tain railway interests it controlled in
THAT region.
At the conclusion Of Mr.. Field,
statement Senator Lodge announced
that the hearings on the treaty were
closed.
