PRIMARY RECEIPTS
Chicago Grain and Provisions.

Chicago, Jan. Corn averaged lower
in price today, largely as a result Of
statements by Herbert Hoover about
financial aid to Europe. The market
closed unsettled at 1s41Ac net decline.
with May. 1859 @1.s5a and July s188%
Q1.$3N. Oats lost q Nc. In prori-
sions the outcome ranged from a setback
of sc to E0o advance.
Mr.. Hoover's opinion that the great
bulk OF European financial needs could
be met by ordinary commercial credits
was given a boarish construction by many
corn traders. The inference was drawn
that transatlantic food requirements were
not 10 alarming as had been pictured by
some. Breaks in the value Of hogs added
to the selling pressure on corn, and SO
likewise did gossip that export demand
for rye had been satisfied for perhaps
the remainder of the season. Scanttness
of receipts, together with complaints OF
car scarcity, led afterward to rallies but
the market sagged again at the last be-
cause Of renewed unloa ding by holders.
Oats weakened with corn after the May
delivery had touched the highest price
yet this season.
Provisions synpathised with the hog
market depression. but the effect was
somewhat counterbalanced by purehas-
ing that Was ascrihed to grain houses.

PALMER UPH0LDS
AGREEMENT MADE
With BIC five"
More Accomplished Through
Governments Settlement
Than Court Decision, At
torney General Says. 4

Washington, Jan. More was
accomplished through the govern
ment's settlement OF its antitrust
proceedings against the FIVE big Chi
cago meat packers than could have
resulted from court decision ad-
verse to the packers, Attorney Gen
eral Palmer told the senate agricul-
ture committee today.
The government, the attorney gen.
eral declared, surrendered no rights
to further prosecution Of the
packers, eliminated the packers from
the conduct of industries not d.
rectly related to meat packing and
does not at present contemplate
further proceedings, either civil or
criminals, as the eases against them
have been won"
There were q few sharp inter.
changes between Mr.. Palmer and
committee members during his ap-
pearance. The suggestion of Sen
ator Norris, republican, Nebraska,
that criminal counts against the
packers, past and prospective, had
been forgiven by the agreement
brought a fiat denial.
Spying on Labor Unions.
Senator France, republican, Mary
land, intimated that by bringing
civil and not criminal proceedings
against the packers the Department
of Justice had laid itself open to
the charge of failing to prosecute
rnultimillionaires while its agents
had been spying upon members of
labor unions and making summary
arrests"
1T doesn't lay in the mouth of
any man, high or low, to say that
the attornuy general of the United
States is a respecter of persons, re-
torted Mr.. Palmer, his ire plainly
aroused He added that he mad
brought civil complaints against
the packers exactly as he had
brought civil complaints against the
miners union during the recent coal
strike.
Commenting on the general et-
fects OF the agreement, Mr.. Palmer
said he saw no hope Of immediate
lowering Of food prices by reason

Efficiency of Autocracy.

There is much weight in the at
gument that these large concerns Sc
cure greater efficiency and conse-
quent lowering of costs" he COM
mented. But if so, it is the eff
cheney OF autocracy. We shall de-
pend on gaining results in this di-
rection from the competition be-
tween smaller units and If they are
not obtained, then our whole theory
of efficiency gained by democratic
competition is wrong"
Recounting for the first time the
immediate history of the prosecution
against the packers, Mr.. Palmer
said that while Chicago grand jury
was considering the governments
evidence, Robert J. Durham, vice
president of Armour and company,
had opened negotiations for the set
Element after he had informed the
packers that If they desired to come
with the idea of surrendering to the
government and would state how far
they were willing to go in comply
ing with certain requirements by the
government he would. be willing TO
meet their representative.
Agree to Court Decree.
In the settlement that resulted, he
said, the packers agreed to accept
a court degree perpetually enjoin-
ing them from monopohstic or other
unlawful trade practices. from en-
