New Member GIVES
COMMONS HARD Jolt
John Jones, "SookIess Jerry" of
British House, Spurns
Formally.

Every parliament produces q new
character. The American congress
had "Sockless" Jerry Simpson from
Kansas and the British house of COM
mons had Kier Hardie, who appeared
Oh the floor in wOrkingman'S cap and
with wOrkingman's freedom of
speech in the era when the silk hat
and frock coat were still almost a uni
form for that assembly and when the
heavy Gladstonian manner was it's
model for debate.
John Jones, the new Labor member
from Silvertown, is the Jerry Simpson
and the Kier Hardie of the house of
commons.
The proof of this is that his speeches
are punctuated with shocked cries of
"Order!" from the Old-timers, and the
reason for the cries is that he talks to
the house of commons just as he used
to talk when he was addressing out Of
door audiences from a soapbox at
Tower hill which is the forum for in
formal workmen's debates.
Don't you try to assume so much,
guv'nOr!" was his first remark to the
speaker. Speaker Lowthar, sitting I'M
der canopy, arrayed in his wig and
gown, is parsonage certainly no less
portentOus than the chief justice of
the United States of America, and the
house had shock equal to what the
Supreme court would have suffered
under similar lese majestic.
John Jones got even with the house.
II want you gentlemen to know"
he remarked, while discussing con-
scription. ('Honorable members" is
the hallowed term for referring to
members of the house.) There were
loud calls for "Order!" Mr.. Jones re-
piled:

a mistake by caaing you gentlemen"

THE PACKERS AND
REFRIGERATOR CARS

Whether refrigerator cars should be
owned by the railroads or by thu pack
ers-a point to be determined by Leg
islation now pending In Washington
lnay seem to be a question rather re-
mote from the interests Of the average
person. But, inasmuch as these "ice
Boxes on Wheels" as one of the pack,
ers terms them, are the conveyauces
which bring our beefsteak to town. we
may assume that we have a certain
concern about them. If they have any
thing to do with the price of the beef
steak our concern is deep one.
1t is maintained by some that these
cars give the packers who now own
them an unfair advantage over COM
petitOrs. This is stoutly denied by the
packers, who offer as proof the fact
that they pay the same freight rates
as any shipper; and they assert that
the only advantage they enjoy is in
being able to get enough cars for their
needs by furnishing them themselves
instead of depending upon the rail-
roads to do so. In this they arc backed
up by report of the Interstate Com
merce Commission, made after an in
vestigation of all privately owned
cars, to the effect that there were no
unfair practices and that a radical
change would adversely affect both
shippers and the public.
While not opposing, in principle,
railroad ownership Of refrigerator
cars, the packers maintain that there
are not enough of these cars to 60
around and that the legislation in
question makes no provision for insur'
ing that the railroads shall furnish
them in sufficient number. On the
other hand, to pool their cars and take
chances Of getting what happened to
be available, would seriously handi-
cap the distribution of their perishable
meat products. The stream Of ship
ments from the packing plants would
be blocked, which in turn would block
the buying of live stock, and the in
dustry, which is founded on basis Of
rapid distribution, would be badly
muddled.
In these contentious pro and con,
there are three parties whose interests
are at stake-the packers, their COM
petitors and the public. Only one Of
these parties could gain possible ad-
vantage if the packers, cars were
taken away from them, viz, the pack
erS' competitors. The cars are now
admittedly handled on an economic
and efficient basis, and no change Is
justified unless urfairness is definitely
and absolutely proved-which would
be in absolute contradiction to the re-
port that the Interstate Commerce
Commission has already rendered on
the subject. The public would pay the
bill for inefficiency in the packing in
dustry and it has no desire to pay this
bill in order to help few Of the pack
ers' competitors.

EUROUPE STILL WANTS u. S.
PORK AND DAIRY PRODUCTS

Washington, D. C. Oct. IL. Warn
ing has been sent out by the Depart
ment of Agriculture to live stock and
dairy farmers that the demands for
eport may not be so great as last
year, but it is explained there will
still be a heavy market in. Europe.
The governm ents of Europe are
making every effort to induce their
farms and dairies and definite
campaign is on in most countries for
cattle repopulation. There will still
be a demand for American products,
though this repopulation and the rate
of exchange will probably cause it to
decline somewhat. Last year it took
two billion pounds of milk Cor one
hundred pounds from. every milch COW
in America) to meet Europe's demand
for dairy products. For at least an
other year, it is predicted, the de-
mand for pork products will be
greater than it has been in the past.

,uCORN CROP AT U. OF A.

'ss The corn crop at the University
Farm near Tucson has been an eX-
ceedingly fine one this year, the yield
being unusually heavy and the quality
good. The work of putting the crop
into the two silos has just been COM
pleted. Mexican June corn was
grown on an old alfalfa field which
was seeded to barley last fall. Be-
cause of the favorable soil and wealth
er conditions, the crop grew very
rapidly and required only one irriga-
tion. One border was not irrigated at
all after planting and the yield ON it
was practically as good as on the ir-
rigated borders Many of the stalks
stood twelve to fourteen feet in
height and were heavily cared.
The sorghum crop is not yet ready
for the silo. 1t is making splendid
growth and it is expected that the
yield will be unusually heavy.

In estimating the change in the bud
get as q whole the constituent items
have been given the following rela-
tive importance: Food, 43 per cent
of the total; shelter, 18 per cent;
clothing, 13 per cent; fuel, heat and
light, 6 per cent; sundries, 20 per
cent. These percentages are averages
of the actual expenditures Of several
thousand families, based on the re-
suits of investigations by authorita-
tive agencies. While families differ
in the apportionment of their incomes
among the separate budget items, the
distribution for normal families does
not vary widely from these averages.
Hence, with any reasonable alloca-
tion Of items in the budget, changes
in the total cost of living are fairly
uniform, and an estimate of 60 per
cent to 65 per cent as the increase be-
tween July, 1914, and March, 1919, Is
broadly representative.

DO NOT WANT WANT
LICENSING BILLS.
Farmers, StoCkmen and Mer-
chants Oppose Packer Leg
isIation at Washington.

Representing a diversity OF inter.
estS and including farmers, feeders, re-
tail butchers and produce dealers, full
ly thousand individuals have made
their way to Washington to enter their
protests against the packer licensing
plan now in hearing before the senate
agriculture committee.
Far from solving in any measure the
high cost of living, the proposed legis-
lation if passed would be a dangerous
experiment for everyone, is the con-
sensus of opinion held by these wit
nesses.
''We've had government control Of
railroads and telephones and tele-
graphs until we're plumb worn out,
and we don't want any more" w. P.
Carpenter, stock feeder of Tarko, Mo-,
told the committee. I'm ln favor Of
the man who can produce the cheapest
going ahead as far as he can. That's
the way to cut down the cost Of liv-
ing"
That the packers dominated the
stock markets was an idea secuted
by testifying stock feeders, who said
they found the stock yards places Of
keen competition.
Taking away the packers refrigera-
tor cars was as reasonable as taxing
away their butcher knives, was the
conviction expressed by J. P. Lynch,
another feeder from Tarkfo,
The concern of stockmen end batch
ers who fear that hamperlng the pack
ers will only result in disrur:irg the
meat industry without benefit to any
one, was not the sole interest displayed
at the hearing. Business men through
out the country are strongly against
the licensing feature which would es-
tablish precedent for bringing gov
ernment control and politics into the
conduct Of all manner Of business.
Many business organizations have
expressed themselves formally, through
resolutions, as against the principle of
bringing business under government
interference of the kind proposed in
the Kenyon and Kendrick bills.
In speaking for the chamber Of COM
merce of Moultrie, Ca, G. T. Caldwell
said: "We've got Swift. & Co. down
there, and they've helped more than
anything else to get our farmers to
diversity. The live stock business
needs their national distribution"

COST OF LIVING IS
DROPPING SLOWLY
National Industrial Conference
Board Issues a Preliminary
Statement.

The cost of living for American
wage-earners declined less than 3 per
cent during the period from signing
II the armistice to the first week of
March, 1919, according to preliminary
statement issued by the. national in
dustrial conference board. In March,
1919, the cost of living was still ap'
proximately 60 per cent to 65 per cent
above the pre-war level, as contrast
ed with an increase of 65 per cent to
20 per cent in November, 1918, and OF
90 per cent to 90 per cent in june
1913, as brought out by the boards

In the harvest year from August,
1915, to August, 1919, Europe must i'm
port 29O00,000 tons of f0odstuffs from
overseas, and to meet this there is
available total of about 35,000,000
tons, Herbert G. Hoover chairman Of
the food section of the supreme eco
nomic council said In Paris.
Shipping conditions are not satisfac-
tory on account of strikes in many
countries and, as a result, there is nc
question that the entire American SUR
plus will be absorbed.
"We are at the worst phase of the
European famine that was inevitable
after this world war;" Mr.. Hoover said.
The economic food council is on top
in the fight against famine and food
distribution is organized to supply the
affected areas in Europe outside of
Russia, Mr.. Hoover said. The Ameri
can relief administration has organ
ized the systematic feeding of the un-
dernourished children, numbering be-
tween 100000 and 100000.

neutrals will pay cash for what they

VIII Not Raise Wheat Price.
The relief authorities are doing their
hest to control the effect of the large
demands on the American market. Mr..
Hoover said that a statement by him
on the possible price of wheat hsd
been misinterppeted. He hat: said that
in view of the demands of the
world for food, the removal of price
control with regard to wheat, sugar,
pork products and cotton seed prod
ucts would be dangerous to the Ameri-
was removed and, Mr., Hoover said,
had proved to be a disadvantage to the
consumer.
Mr.. Hoover said he wished to empha-
size that the control of the price of
wheat would be maintained to the full
extent of existing authority and rnat
the American consumer need not be
alarmed that there will be a material
rise in. the price of that food essential.
America will sell more wheat than
she has, but the exports are being reg
ulated to reserve a sutficiency for do
mestic needs.
Purchases Army Supplies.
The American army stocks of pork
products in France, more than 60,000,-
coo pounds, had been purchased by the
relief council ans should furnish suf,
ficient supply Of fats until harvest for
liberated countries.
Germany is being supplied with fats
without competing in the American
market for pork, and the European
draft on the American pork is limited
to the neutral and allied countries.
The administration is purchasing in
the United States only wheat, rye, flour,
beans, some rice, and vegetable oil
products, and in addition, condensed
milk and some other special foods for
children.
