Vast sums have been used for

Throughout two-thirds of the

years and its place has been taken
by production for the sIaughter of
human lives and the annihilation of
accumulated wealth.
Millions of men have been
killed; thousands of millions of
pounds have been wasted in order
to kill them: towns and villages and
smiling homesteads have been
swept out of existence. But there
is a moral asset to be taken into
account. We may at least hope
that we have put an end forever to
the danger of Prussian militarism.

While the police are diligently
searching the city and country for
clues leading to the arrest of the
murderer of the three members of the
Chinese mission, Frank Theodore Al
len, scientific astroloGer, turns his
gaze upon the heavens. and imme-
diately receives a complete dcscrip-
ton Of the murderer. together with
the information that he is in all
probability lurking somewhere near
the scene of his crime.
From the stars the following de-

Mr.. Allen to the Washington Herald.
"A male Of large statue. lean and
raw-boned. having a large frame,

apt to stoop a little and will have an
air of dignity or Of feiCned nobility.
He is eccentric, with a morose, re-

Mr.. Allen states that the stars be-
lieve that the criminal will remain
near the scene of the murder, but
that they are not SO positive on this
point as they are about the desCrip-

Lawrence Strikers
Repudiate Federation;
May Embrace |. W. W,

Lawrence. Mass, Feb. 4.-The
general committee of striking tex
tile workers here indicated today
that 1t had repudiated the Ameri-
can Federation of Labor and the
United Textile Workers of America
Fear is growing that the commit
tee, composed chiefly of radicals of
the foreign element, will turn to
the l. w. w. for support and guild
ance. The strikers are now being
led by kaplan, who has ignored the
unions.
Directors OF the Lawrence Cham
Der OF Commerce met this afternoon
and protested the strike, asserting
that il did not have the moral sup
port Of the citizens or of the Ameri-
can mill workers.
Late this afternoon the general
committee of the workers moved

real attempt was made to regulate
their profits.
Witness said independent packers
had been able to make a big profit on
their operations. although they were
sometimes compelled to pay as much
as 80 head more for cattle. Legis-
lation that would result in establish
mont Of more slaushtering centers was
recommended by Mr.. Lasater, who de-
clared also that 1.-The combination of
Food Administration and packers has
had a bad effect upon the morale of
the producers"
Mr.. Hooyer's purpose, he said, had
been to keep the price paid the pro-
ducers of livestock as low as possible.
Before the Senate Agriculture Com
mittee L. D. II. Weld. of Swift and
Company, told how the big Five"
had aided in winning the war. This
was done, he said by corporation of
the packers with the Food Admins
tration.
George W. Armstrong, cattle grow
er. of Fort Worth, Tex, told the
committee the remedy for the ills
of the packing industry was gov
ernment control of the monopoly" ,"
for the industry is and ought to be
a monopoly. Mr. Armstrong suy-
gested that control should be through
a commission composed of one rep
resentative of the packers, one of
the producers, one OF organized la
Dor and two independents. Govern
ment control of the monopoly would
help the situation greatly. he thought,
while prosecution of the packers un-
der the Sherman antitrust act
would not.
Recital OF the history of the Wee
der pools" of twenty-five years ago
was begun by Henry Veeder counsel
for Swift and Company. Mr.. Veeder
declared the packers had regulated
margins. differences between the cost
and selling price, by regulating ship
ments rather than by fixing prices.
In reply to questions by Francis
J. Heney, Mr.. Veeder said the $780,
900 capital of Swift and Company
had developed into $780, 900 through
development OF the Argentine trade,
efficient business methods and better
utilization of all by-products. Ex-
animation of Mr.. Veeder will be re-
sumed tomorrow.
