Hoover Statement To Presi-
 dent Wilson Released.
DOMINATION OF "BIG
 FIVE "DUE TO GROW
Urges Permanent Legislation Rather Than Passage of War
 Measures.

Washington, Feb. 2O.-A confiden- tial report made to President Wilson by Herbert c. Hoover six months ago on the big meat packers was made public today by the Food Administra- tion at the direction of the President ito establish the real position of Mir. on the control of the Chicago packing industries" In recent hearings before Congressional committees witnesses for the livestock men charged collus- ion between MT. Hoover and the five leading packers.
 In the report. in response to a re- quest from the President for his views on the recommendation of the Federal Trade Commission, MT. Hoover said he reaffirmed his opinion given nearly year before that There is a growing and dangerous domination of the na- tion's foodstuffs," and approved some of the commissions proposals. He recommended constructive regulation rather than stretching temporary war powers of the government ,and ex- pressed the belief that the domination of the packers did not necessarily ina ply wrong doing on their part, but was the natural outgrowth "of various factors which need correction"
 MT. Hoover accepted as economical ly sound the Federal Trade Commis- sion's recommendation regarding Fed eral control of animal and refrigerator car service. and said stockvards should be "entirelv disassociated from the control of tha nackers v He contendad however, that wrong practices between buyers and sellers would not be cor rected by the Government controlling or owning yards.
 Against Federal Control.
 His own instinct. MT. Hoover said, was against Federal ownership of the packers branch houses and cold stor- age and warehouse facilities. Going into aspects of the packing industry not covered by the Trade Commission, he said:
 ''If proper abattoirs could, be ex- tended near the larger towns, possibly with municipal help and the operations therein protected from illegitimate competition. J believe they would not only succeed, but would greatly stimu- late the local production of meat animals. One effect would be great of prices by wider bas- cd market than that now so largely deuendent upon small group of buy CTS"
 The report to the President follows:
 The President has directed the pub- lcation of confidential report made

Burned Alive.

Many of the men, said Father YOn- tschitch, were still alive when the Bulgars saturated their bodies with gasoline and set them afire Flames spread abOu- them and they pleaded piteously for mercy but their pleas were met with sneers. After the flames had spent ,themselycs, sA;d Father YOntschitch. the charred bod- ies of twenty-one victims were thrown into two holes. Arms. legs; heads, he said, were left protrllding, exposed to the ravages of dogs and wolves that infest the mountains, in the neighborhood.
 The Bulgars left the scene before daybreak Father Yontschitch made his way on foot to the village of POnor,- and eventually to Pirot, his home. From that time, twenty one months he concealed himself from the Bulgars under the floor of the house. He lived almost like rat, food being lowered to him through a hole in the floor. The Associated Press correspondent visited this place and saw the wretched conditions un- der which Yontschitch lived. When the priest emerged from his self-im- posed confinement, his appearance had so changed that his friends fail ed to recognize him. He was later seized by the Bulgars and, sent to a prison camp at Eski Djuma near the Rumanian frontier, where for three months his only food was slice of bread and a few pieces of leek each day When the war ceased, Father Yontschitch and 150 other Serbian priests were returned ,-home.
 Finds Evidence.
 To confirm the priests story the correspondent visited. the spot where the victims aof the massacre were buried. The et,place is .obscured on all sides by mount;Nnss4 Many bones skulls, and parts of the priests vest ments being scattered about in con. fusion. The correspondent found near the bones a number of empty cartridges of Bulgarian manufacture
 Little candles had been placed in the ground by local peasants who came
 each day to say prayers over the
 graves after the Bulgarian evacuation
 An international Investigating com
 mission is expected soon to examine l the scene. "

HUNGAR|ANS ARE SQUAN DERING
 PUBLIC FU NOS
Conditions Now More Chaot. ic Than During Four
 Years of War.

Vienna, Jan. 13.-sCorrespondence of The Associated Press.)-The men, ace of Bolshevism has created a criti- cal situation in Hungary whose gen. eral outlook is considered infinitely worse than in German-Austria. Under the present government. the condition of the country is described as chaotic and serious Bolshevik outbreak is ex- pected. With it's army disbanded the government is unable to offer resist ance even if it had the courage and energy to do so.
 Public moneys, it is asserted are being "squandered" at an 'appalling rate" and leading financiers express fear of bankruptcy of the state. The whole situation of the country is re. ported to be "inconceivably worse than at any tme during the four years of war"
 The government is preparing to hold general elections but under the pres. ent conditions this appears to be a physical impossibility. There are no lists of voters. and the franchise has been extende dfrom 1,50O,OO0 to 7,OOO,- 900 including women who have been granted suffrage. With part of the country occupied by enemies, elections i nthese districts will be impossible, it is declared.
 Fear Bolshevism.
 The fear of Bolshevism is growing daily and everywhere the people are express the fear that conditions now urging that the Allies intervene. They existing in Russia will be repeated in Hungary. Hungarian prisoners of war have returned from Russia imbued with Bolshevik ideas and are spreadirfi the propaganda. It is the general opin- ion of the people that the Karolyi Cabinet made a mistake is disbanding the army leaving the country at the mercy of the invaders. s
