Nebraska Men Appear
On Opposite Sides Of
Meat Packer Question

Washington, Maych 5.-(Special
Telegram.) = Two Nebraska men
appeared before the house commit
tee on agriculture on opposite sides
of proposed legislation for regula-
ton of the meat packing. industry.
Charles Graft OF Bancroft, vice
president of the Estate Agricultural
board, favors stricter regulation OF
the packers by the government,
while F. M, Currie of Broken Bow
is opposed to the legislation.
Mr.. Curric thought that the bill
before the committee, introduced by
Representative Anderson OF Mime
sofa. wouid tend to "unsettle con-
ditions" and thereby injurc produc-
crs Of stock.
Mr.. Graf took precisely the OPP
posite view and said thar in his
opinion further legislation was alb
solutely essential.
"We ought to pass a law with
teeth in it to regulate the packers,
soid Mr.. Graft. mo cheap store
teeth, but real teeth"
He referred to the Union Stock
Yards company at Omaha as ar
'uuholy" combination that he be-
lievess has complete understand
ing with /the packing industry.
The feeling among stock raisers
and producers in the corn belt is
SUCH that / believe nothing but fed
eral regulation OF the packers by
commission such as is proposed
in this bill will restore their con-
fidence in market conditions" said
Mr.. Graft. \

tive.
Claims OF his supporters are
founded upon 80 years of honest
and efficient public service.
