That the Sugar Equalization Board
would proceed to purchase this sugar
If the Congress would give it's indorse-
ment to the venture, and extend to
time definite, sufficient to cover the dsi-
tribution of the crop purchased, a power
to control its distribution similar to the
power carried in the food control act.
BOARD COULD NOT
ACT WITHOUT POWER.
1t was specifically pointed out and
emphasized that the sugar equalization
board would not undertake this pur
chase in the absence of the Endorsement
Of the venture by Congress or in the
face of the possibility of having its
power to control distribution cut off at
1t was impressed in the strongest
manner possible that in order. for any
thing to be done beneficial to the Ameri
can people, legislation indicating the de-
sire Of Congress to have the Cuban CROP
purchased and granting the power TO
control its distribution, must be expe-
dited.
No member of the committee ques-
toned the reasonableness of the legis-
lation asked, or even intimated that the
sugar board should proceed without fur
. Their legislation, but on the contrary the
chairman of the full committee compli-
mented the board for having come to
Congress for its legislative approval be-
fore preceding to purchase the crop.
3. With full knowledge of the situation
thus given and full responsibility, the
bill known as the McNary bill, which is
the only legislation upon the subject, did
not PASS the Senate until the 18th Of the
following December It passed the
House on the 18th day of December with
amendments and became a law after the
December recess OF Congress and after
the Cuban crop had, OF course, been sold
8. The entire legislative record OF this
Congress which had been In practically
continuous session for a year and
throughout which time there had been a
constant agitation OF the sugar question,
and advertisement of sugar shortage,
and a stimulation of competitive scramble
for sugar with the inevitable enhance
ment OF price. is, that it passed a bill
expressing congressional assent to the
purchase of the Cuban crop only after
that crop had already been sold. a bill.
moreover, which by its own limitations
told the sugar equalization board and
all other administrative and controlling
agencies Of the Government, thst the Re
publican Congress does not indorse the

proposition to purchase or control the
distribution to the American people Of
sugar produced during this year. That y
the record of this Congress made with
full information, completes power and
full responsibility, by itself SO acknoWl-
edged. This bill is the last and only
act of Congress touching the purchase
of sugar and control of sugar prices TO
the American people, and is the clear
expression of it's Will and Judgment that
all Government control over domestic
sugar should end on June 80, 192O ana
over all other sugar on Dec. 81.
Z. This Congress adjOurns with the rec
ord against it, that 1t refused to give
the sugar equalization board legislative
sanction to purchase the last Cuban crop
and control distribution until after the
crop had already been sold; that It
affirmatively denies to the sugar equailza-
zion board its sanction to purchase or
to have anything to do with the sugar
in process of production and which is
to supply the needs of the people Tor
fhe coming winter and for next year !;
that its whole legislative policy and its
policy Of agitation has been directly for
the benefit Of those who are interested
in charging the American people high
prices for sugar.
! s, The failure TO pass the McNary bill,
or some other bill of like import, until
the Cuban crop was sold, prevented the
Governments purchase of the Cuban
crop put the sugar equalization board
out OF cOnLrOl over sugar sun
jected the people TO the prices now being
paid, and by the express limitations car
ried in the bill, limiting to this year the
powers and sanction to purchase pro.
vided in the bill, cuts off the American
people from any hope of getting sugar
next year through any purchasing and
Misunderstanding agency similar to that
which the sugar equalization board
constitutes.
BLAME is PLAINLY
LAID TO REPUBLICANS.
Thus, then, the sugar situation Of 1920
undeniably stands, and squarely at Re

Rheumatism Comes
From Tiny Pain Germs

First of all, get it firmly fixed in
your mind that all the liniments In
the world have no effect whatever on
rheumatism.
Medical scientists differ as to the
causes of every form of rheuma-
tism, but agree that when caused by
tiny disease germ, the only effec-
tive method OF treatment is to at
tack the disease at its source, and
cleanse the blood of its cause.
A very common form Of Rheuma
tism is caused by millions Of tiny
disease germs which infest the blood.
Indiana daily times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1914-1922, 1920-10-15

The one and only sensible treatment,
therefore, is one which cIeanses the
blood of these germs. and routs them
entirely out of the circulation.
This is why SSS.. the greatest
known blood purifier, is so success
full IN the treatment of Rheumatism.

blood. and will remove the disease

PACKERS ARE HARD HIT
BY SHORTAGE OF CARS

CHICAGO, May 23.-An immedi at 9
construction of the nations meat sup
ply Is threatened by the reduced quota
OF refrigerator cars apportioned to
packing companies by the Interstate
Commerce Commission, according to
statement issued by Thomas f.
Wilson. president of the Institute OF
American Meat Packers, in behalf of
nearly two hundred companies in va
rious,parts OF the United States. Re-
ports received today at the institute
from several sections show that some
plants may have to shut down on ac-
count of the lack of cars.
The statement says:
"Other plants have been forced to
effect a so per cent curtailment in
the production of meat and some OF
these are on the point of stopping
operations entirely.
mo packer owns enough refrigera-
tor cars to take care of his own
business. The large packers are
compelled to rely on railroad-owned
cars for 25 to 50 per cent of their
requirements. and the smaller pack
ers depend largely on these common
carriers. Ordinarily, the necessi-
ties OF the packing industry are
recognized and filled in order to pro-
tect the consumer. But the In
terstate Commerce Commission has
diverted to other uses a considerable
share OF the quota usually assigned
and urgntly needed to move meat
"A a consequence, labor is being
laid off and the quantity of live stock
dressed is being reduced. Unless this
condition Is remedied a shortage Of
meat, which has become one OF the
cheapest foods. is bound to follow.
The producer, who is already losing
money, will suffer from a restricted
market for his meat animals. The

duced operations and a continuance of
fixed charges. also will behurt. From
every standpoint the situation merits
