SMALL PACKERS OPPOSE LicENsE

Cincinnati meat packers In drawias resolutions against the licensing ot all packers doing interstate business brought attention to the fact that ths proposed legislation embodied in the Kenyon and Kendrick bills, If enacted would have tendency to drive hun. dreds of small packing firms out of the field of interstate operations. This would be the preference forced upor them as against operating hnder li- censing system which would be a con- tinued menace of interference.

what he is worth as beef animal. Ec one can determine his value but the men In the pens,--the commission men and the buyers.
 Buyers Represent Many Firms. Many think that these cattle are ali purchased by the big packers, which is far from being the case. Besides the buyers for the big packers there are always in the Chicago yards from a hundred to hundred and fifty other buyers on the scene, many of them representing firms that are not located near the stock yards or even In the same city. All told, the large pack CTS do only A per cent of the meat animal slaughtering of the entire com try.
 The penalty which awaits the buyer who will not bid up to true values Is that the other buyers take the cattle away from him and his firm will be without it's requirements. On the oth- e. hand the commission men cannot stick it out for an exorbitant price {; for the buyers would cut down on the amounts of their purchases. There are some people who will buy meat a. any price. but the majority of peo- pie reduce their meat purchases pre- cisely as tho prices mount upward. The buyers in the stock yards reflect this attitude of the general public al- most as accurately as thermometer indicates the temperature.
 The Arena Of Supply and Demand. In other words. the stock yards are the meeting places of two tremendous powers of the economic world.-Sup. ply and Demand. Any one who vis- its one of these places, even as the most casual observer, and watches what occurs there, will give up my illusion he may have about monopoly or control. Too many buyers and sell CTS are involved, and judging the value of an individual steer or a pen full of steers is altogether too compli. cated matter to cover by any sort of agreement in advance.
 The Kenyon bill would make It file gal for any packers to have financial holdings in stock yards corporations. Common sense rightly asks, "Why7" How such holdings, which. where ther exist, are nothing m,re than financial backing of worthy enterprise, can control the men in the pens who are hired to use their judgment, is too. deep to be seen at a glance. The ad vocates of the bill should be forced to explain. And how lack of such hold ings would prevent control or monop oily, if such things were possible, Is an other thing which the proponents of the bill should be able to elucidate.

Are the great stock yards of Chi cago, Kansas City, Omaha and else where hotbeds of monopolistic control which succeeds in mulcting the farm CT on the one hand, and the consumer who buys meat, on the other handf threshing over in tho discussion of the Kenyon bill now before committee of the Senate.
 If these big markets, where millions upon millions of dollars change hands. have any sort of a strangle-hold on our food resources. few there would be who would not say, rout them. Yet equally few. perhaps, could give you any sort of a vivid wod-picture of what takes place in these markets through which flows much of our farm wealth.
 Separate From Packing Plants.
 The 'stock yards'' are synonymous in the minds of many people with all packingdom. This is error number one. They arc operated as corpora tions wholly distinct from the packing plant companies that cluster around them.
 The stock yards perform two func- tions: they are unloading, feeding and resting stations for live stock and markets for buying and selling. As buying and selling places, they are among the most interesting spots in the worlA-places whore one may see nation at it's baftering. Huge auc- tion stations where a fraction of a point counts, and counts big.
 The Chicago stock yards, as the most notable example, will receive in q day anywhere from 10000 to 30O00 cattle, not to mention hogs and sheep. These would represent shipments by many farmers. Each farmer puts his cattle into the hands of commission firm who acts aS his agent. The "stock in trade" of the commission firm is satisfied clientele among the farmers --the better bargainers they are for leng price, the more the farmer is dis posed to patronize them.
 A Game for Experts.
 It Is titanic game, and one for ex- perts. On the one side are arrayed the commission men, and on the other the buyers representing packing con- cerns, brokers and others. Both sides know their business, which is to say. that they know full we'll what the re ceipts of the day are and their rela- tion to the requirements, and they know cattle.
 The big auction begins. Not from block. but an auction for all that. Buyers, mounted on ponies, scurry hither and thither, making a bid on enc lot here and on another lot there. The commission man will hold the bid in abeyanee, dickering for few points higher price and awaiting the arrival of another man on pony who may make him a better offer. Every con- mission man is competitor of all the other commission men and every buy e- is competitor of all the other buy CTS.
 We say that all of these men know cattle. A steer is not a standardized commodity. Nature makes him what he Is. The contour of his launches, the build of his body and his makeup ir general have everything to do with

DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC
WELFARE, HARDING AIM

Senator Harding's views on educa-
tfonai questions were expressed in a
statement received from the republic
can presidential nominee and made
public yesterday by the National Edu-
cational Association.
Il have committed myself, said
Mr.. Harding. Ito the creation of
.depa rtment of public welfare as
necessary governmental agency for
carrying out effectively program
for. the promotion Of social justice
and human welfare. Obviously. edu-
alton in all it's aspects might be
one of the chief concerns of such a
department. Indeed. education is so
intimately related to every phase of
human welfare and to the perpetuity
Of our free institutions that it must
be considered Of primary Importance
in any program for social better
ment.
1.-THE federal government has es-
tablished the precedent of promoting
education. without interfering in
any way with the control and man
agemsnt of public education by the
states, the federal government should
extend aid to, the states for the pro-
motion of physical education, the
AUGMENTATION of the foreign born,
the eradication of illiteracy, the bet
ter training of teachers and for pro-
noting free educational opportuni-
ties for all the children of all the

you how to solve your own problems.

HARTFORD. Conn, October s.
AS Maine is to the Union, so is
the small town" in Connecticut to
the whole state, and the September
election in the Pine Tree state is
hardly more of a political barometer
in forecasting the outcome Of the No
vember national election than is the
small town" October election in Con-
nectcut in giving line on the result
in the state the following month. Last
Monday more than 140 OF the 16S
towns Of the state held their elections,
and, though the issues were local,
these contests furnished pretty good
idea Of the way the state will go in
the presidential election. The results
were decidedly satisfactory to the re-
publfcans, and indicate that Harding
and Coolidge will receive the seven
electoral votes of the state.
A large majority of the Connecticut
towns are republican, and they were
expected to elect a majority OF re-
publican selectmen and other officers
which would not, in itself, be concIu-
sive as to the November result, but
comparisons, which are not odious
when they are comparisons of figures
'ieofis iHulcdle the Qfllt TO the u.
.. +. Though the votes cast were not
large. as a rule they showed consid-
cradle gains for the republicans and
corresponding losses for the demo
Gratis, which, If repeated next month
Will give Connecticut to the repuh-
licans by wide margin. These gains
and losses are based on both the state
election of 1918 and the town elections
of 1919.
Though the women eligible to vote
at the town elections were few, COM
pared with those who will be able to
cast their ballots next month, they
showed much interest in the October
contests and added appreciably to the
total vote. Judging by the count of
the votes, the republicans gained
more than the democrats by the wom-
ems franchise
The campaign in the state is being
conducted along the same lines as
from the start, with the democrats
paying very little attention to the
places on the ticket other than
United States senator, which they still
hope to save, their hope being based
on the belief that enough republican
women will vote against Senator
Frank B. Brandegee to defeat him.
to line up women for Representative
Lonergan, Senator Brandegee's demo-
cratic opponent will bear some fruit.
the democratic candidate will lose a
far from small number of votes to the
republican senator on the league of
nations issue. 1t would appear. at
this time that the best the demo-
Gratis can reasonably expect, with
these two factors figuring in the cleo

plain probabilities of life. It has
been a fine thing that SO many should
have been inspired during the war by
the wish to effect arrangements that
would prevent repetition of such
conflict. Eut while our own admin
istration has been seeking to produce
such an ideal situation, what Rave
been the real activities. the dominat-
ing concerns of other nations.
Have we found them animated by
the same lofty purposes and noble
aspirations that have been pro-
claimed by our own single track
national leadership? l question
whether other nations have taken
very seriously the noble and self
abnegating aims which the WASH

while our government has been at

been looking about for the means

conviction that in the control of

controls more than so per cent of
tine worlds known supplies. He ven-
tured to boast that the petroleum
future of the world. in this raw mo-
tor age, was now securely in the
hands of the British peoples.
Surely 1t must give pause to those
oc US who would like to take a rea-
sonably practical view of the actual
facts to note that while our admin
istration las been trying to impose
