LEGION
 RECOGNISES LOCAL
 POST OF VETERANS
Complete Organization Will Be Effected Here Monday
 Night.

A charter was received yesterday by Sam M. Levine from the national post of the American Legion recognlz- ing the organization here, Allen Hearins Post, No. 32. An orgaNza- tion Meeting will De held Monday night at 8 o'clock at the Chamber of Commerce assembly room at which time final and complete organlzatlon will be effected, and officers will be elected.
 Several meetings of the local post have been held. It's present tempor- ary officers are Sam Levine, presi- dent; and Leslie Mcintyre, secretary.
 Charter members sig'.<d the request for a charter from the national post, and yesterday, the charter was re- ceived.
 A constitution and bylaws, similar to those of the Little Rock post were adopted at the last meeting. One of the first moves probably by the Allen Hearin post will be a membership campaign. As is the case with all newly organized posts, the service men are reluctant to take part in the organization of the posts, but it has been found that membership in the American Legion is growing daily.
 The establishment here of bureau to aid returned soldiers find employ ment, and bureau to handle insur- ance and allotment difficulties for re- turned soldiers will also probably be inaugurated as a part of the work of the post.
 The name of the post was adopted from the name of one of Pine Bluffs heroes of the war, Allen Hearin, who died at the base hospital, at Camp Cor don, Atltnta, Ga., several months ago following an operation for wounds re- ceived in battle.

Pine Bluff daily graphic., 1919-08-14

-~~~~~~N~~~ state commerce subcommittee con- sidering high cost of living recom- mendations of President Wilson, Sen ator Mcclellan said if the bill had been passed in 1913, he felt sure the pres ent conditions as to excessive living cost would not exist.
 The meat packers were charged by the Tennessee senator with using cold storage facilities to fix food prices.
 ''It is being used by the packers" :" he said, "for the purpose of controll- ing prices. As, used by the packers it preserves in seasons of plenty and permits them to withhold such large quantities of foodstuffs from the mar ket as to make season of scarcity at any time they see fit, and thus they increase the price to the con- suming public.
 Explaining his bill, Senator Nickel lar said it would limit the time foods could be held in. cold storage and that it has been vigorously opposed by the packers.
 Eggs particularly, the. senator as- serted, are monopolized.
 "They are in the hands of the most giant monopoly there is in the world,' he said. "The price the packers pay and the price at which they are sold is out of all proportion and they never will come down until eggs are stamped and regulated"
