Herein Is Described One of the Most Beautiful Insti- tutions Tn Phoenix.

I wonder how many of you have ever been inside of a new, up-to-date undertaking parlor, with lovely soft hangings, softly shaded lights and beautiful furniture? It is only recently that I have had the delightful exper- fence and found 1t so interesting that felt sure that it would make an in teresting story.
 A H. Mcclellan who has been in the undertaking business for the past To years, and who, until only few months ago was one of the firm of Moore ana Mcclellan, has opened an establishment at 617 North Central avenue and II was this place that I visited. MT. Me- Lellan has spared no expense to make this parlor what l have been told IS the finest in the state. And after one | has seen it, one is rather apt to agree that it would be difficult to lind more pleasing one.
 The building itself is most attrac- ] tive, and is constructed of brlck, pepble 1 dashed and stained. with darker brown I trimmings. And in the entrance hall are the softest most velvet like car- pets that absolutely deaden the sound of footsteps. In the main room or the chapel are the loveIest, soft French blue hangings, made of double weight silk velour. These drapes are very ex- pensive, and seem to be the one thing necessaryto give the air of quiet ele- gance that the place has. The carpet on this floor, too, is of French blue velour and is so heavy and thick that
 ones footsteps are absolutely dead ened. Mammoth davenports are also upholstered to match and the unusual : ly comfortable chairs are of French gray wicker and blend beautifully with
 the hangings and the carpet
 Just off of the main chapel room IS
 the family room, which has private
 entrance from the automobile drive al
 the side of the building. This room
 is especially attractive. with the big
 comfortable chairs in the velour up holstering. the fiavenports that matcl and the lovely big fireplace that is ablaZe when the days are cool. In thi:

PACKERS NO MORE
 A MENACE
DiYOrcement Decree Met Every Just Com
 plaint.

Washington, April 2-Court pro- ceedings against the "big five" Chi cago packers were instituted because 'tit had come to the time for a show down in the industry Attorney Gen eral Palmer today told the House Agricultural Committee. The Attor- hey General appearing in connection with pending regulatory legislation reviewed what he calls the long cam paign against the industry in court and before public opinion.
 fIt seemed to me that the thing had come to a point where the pack CTS were either entitled to 8 clean bill of health,'' said MT. Palmer. "or the public was entitled to a judgment of some sort against them"
 ''The divorcement decree,'' MT. Palmer said. met every just com plaint that had been made by con- sumers, producers or competitors against the packers.''
 ''It met them by a judgment, with means for enforcing it." the attorney general continued. The managers and influential stockh elders in the packing corporations can be convicted of contempt of court and imprisoned for many violations of it's terms. This makes these five great packers butch CTS and nothing else. They no longer are a menace to the food tables to Am erica with control of meat substi- tuteS and all other foods."

STRIKE AFFECTS
 LOCAL TRAFFIC

The 1ongsh oremen's strike in New York is apt to seriously affect traffic by water between this city and New York next week unless a. settlement is made between the men and the owners.
 The Iongshoremen at the New York end have refused to unload freight which was sent from this city and the steamboat officials made an arrangement with some of the local shippers whereby they agreed to have the goods taken from the boat on it's arrival in New York by their own men and trucks.
 The crews of the steamers were obliged to load freight which was sent to this city and the 1ongshore- mems union have threatened to call out the captains and mates on all Sound steamers unless this practice is discontinued.
 Trouble is also brewing between the captains, mates and engineers of the Sound tug boats and they are getting restless over the delay of the owners to accept their demands in reference to wages and hours of la Dor. It is believed that the crews will stop work next week unless & settlement is made.

BRIDGEPORT MAY GET
 RECREATION BUILDING

plan for Bridgeport is a difference of opinion as to just how funds for the building shall be raised and whether it shall Be open to the gen. era1 public or restricted to ''club members only.
 It has been suggested that a large club be formed, open virtually to any resident of the city, the dues to be nominal only and entrance to the building gained through membership cards.
 Others in the city, however, oppose this plan and insist that admission to the building be free, similar to the plan in Detroit.
 It has been practically decided that the building will be erected and main tained by private capital but here again there is a slight difference of opinion, some urging that a stock cor poration be formed and stock sold to all who want to buy, while others lean to the "cIose corporation'' idea
 These minor differences, however, will not stand in the way of the plan it is understood and Bridgeport may soon look for the start of a building of this nature. The definite location has not as yet been decided but those interested have under consideration three or four pieces of property in the city which are appropriate.
 When the matter was first taken up it was thought that several smaller buildings in various localities might answer the purpose better but further consideration of that plan has led to it's rejection.
