 Sweeping in Scope
 They are required to abandon for ever the use of their branch houses, route cars, and auto trucks comprising their distribution system, for any other than their own means and dairy products.
 They are required to submit per petually to the courts injunction for bidding all the defendants from di- rectly, indirectly maintaining any selves, or any other person or persons, or monopolizing or attempting to monopoliZe any food product in the United States, or indulge in an unfair or unlawful practice.
 Moreover. the decree provides that Jurisdiction is perpetually retained by tSe court for the purpose of taking such further action or relief as may be necessary in the circumstances tC carry out. or enforce the decree.
 Tn brief, the decree removes the menace of control of unrelated in- dustries by the big five. and confines their activities in future to the busi- ness of distributing meat and it's by products under an injunction which restrains them from unfair and unlaw- ful practices
 .'The decree is sweeping in its scope and I am sure will be highly bene- ficial to the public in it's effect"
 Involves Reorganization
 The decree. which involves reorgan. ization of a great industry with as sets of more than s1.00O, ,000.0 900, and affects five corporations and 70 indi- viduals. results from an agreement be- tween the larger meat packers and the department of justice announced last December IS. This agreement was reached after the department, at the direction of President Wilson had in 'stituted antitrust proceedings against the packers in Chicago.
 Agreement for the filing of the de- cree. MT. Palmer said in announcing Il last December would have the effect Cf establishing the principle that no group of men. no matter how powerful can ever attempt to control the food table of the American people, or any one of the necessities or component parts of it."
 The attitude of the packers was summed up at that time by M. M. Borders, general counsel for Morris SS company. as illustrating the spirit of true Americanism" of the packing in dustry. Henry Veeder. counsel for Swift & company, asserted that his company had met the request of the government because it was felt "that the same spirit which caused the busi- ness men of the country to submit to personal sacrifices during the war is just as essential during the period of reconstruction.

Seeks More Evidence
 Before Filing Report


 BOSTON, Feb. 27.--Judge Crosby of the supreme court after hearing argu- ments by counsel in the Christian Sci ence church litigation today, took un- der advisement a motion by counsel for the directors of the church that Frederic Dodge, as master in the suits, be directed to hear further evidence before s>ing his report The evidence which the directors wish to introduce is in connection with the suit of John V. Dittemore against the directors, to compel them to recognize him as a member of their board.
 No action was taken by Judge Crosby on a motion by counsel for the directors that the time for the filing of the masters report, which expires on March l, be extended to March 15. He remarked. however that there was some question about the legality of granting such an extension unless re- quested by the master himself

DAYTON, Feb. 27.-Between periods of unconsciousness, Major Schroeder tonight in the army post hospital. re- lated his battle for life far above the clouds.
 T was thinking of nothing but that l wanted to attain a height of 10000 feet, when suddenly the oxygen stopped flowing. Then, all at once, it seemed as though a terrible explosion took place within my head. My eyes hurt and I could not open them. I realized I was falling.
 T guess I pulled hard on the stick, for l knew l must straighten out for glide. The plane seemed to ride easy I opened my eyes, but could see nothing of the ground I closed my eyes tightly and again opened them, seing that I was over Wilbur Wright field, close to the hangars. I couldn't land there.
 T tilted my machine for climb. i'm tending to make sure of a good altitude and then jump for it with my para chute. But at that instant McCook field came into view. I guess I just became an automan and came down all right

The rate of business mortality, how

pre-war times so far as the number
OF houses that meet financial disaster
is concerned. On the other hand, the
liabilities involved, on the whole. are
larger than those of so-called normal

that business failures now involve
merchandise liabilities on much
higher price level than those of pre-
war days.

Retail business in seven leading cities
on the Pacific Coast section showed
an increase in October over september
and over October of last year accord
ing to tgures presented by the Federal

tober were 81 per cent ahead Of Octo-
Der, 1919, and ll8 per cent above Sep
tember, 1920. In only one city, Seattle,

Der sales were l4.6 per cent less than
year ago, but 2.3 per cent ahead of Sep
tembcr of this year.
Wholesale trade in tho district
showed a great slowing up in October.
"Rcports from 1873 representative

during October of this year was less

Prepare for Spring,
4dUice to Retailers

Although markets are not yet
stabilized, in the opinion Of the
executive committee Of the Ma

ton, that body yesterday issued
a statement embodied in a reso-
luton advising both manufacture
ers and retailers to "give careful
thought to the need of being pre-
pared to meet the spring de-
mands Of their public
"In the opinion of this commit
tee" reads the resolution, "retail
distributors should continue to
practise an intelligent conserva-
tism until market conditions show
greater signs Of stability, but
they should be reminded that the
world is still turning on it's axis,
that the underlying soundness Of
American prosperity is beyond
question, that life and business,
the servant of life, will con-
tinue; that there is no excuse for
extreme pessimism or for placing
