ARGUE EXPENSE IN RELIEF FOR
 WAR VETERANS
Congressman Says Bonus as Asked by Legion Means
 Heavier Taxes

WASHINGTON, March B. Appeals for financial relief for former service men today were countered before the house ways and means committee by statements that any money grant, ne. cessitating further bond issues, would be an additional burden on taxpayers.
 Representative Hull, Democrat, Ten nessee, said $500, ,OUO,0OO increased taxes must be raised to meet present war expenditures without granting a cent to the service men.
 With bonus we would be forced to establish the most oppressive S tenn of taxes in the world" he added

BLIZZARD RACES IN NOWBOUND STATES; TR Al NS HAL I IN DRIFT TS Avalanches Tear Out Tracks In Colorado; Passengers
 Are Marooned GREAT DISTRICT IS
 WHIPPED BY GALES Snow Twenty Feet Deep May Bring Frightful Flood
 At La Plata

DURANGO, Colo, March 3-South. western Colorado, already suffering a snow blockade, tonight is in the throes of another blizzard said to be the worst in 30 years. One train has enter. ed Durango in ten days and Silverton hasn't seen moving train in 12 oays.
 One passenger train and several en- zine crews are snow bound near Cum bres pass. Relief parties tonight are gathering provisions to carry on snow shoes to the stranded passengers.
 The 107 miles from Durango to Cha ma is said to be the scene of several freight train wrecks, due to the snow and mud slides and weakened roadbed. Great boulders, weighing many tons, are reported falling from the rimrock of Animas canon, tearing out the rail road beneath. Heavy snow and mud slides are aided by strong wind which is sweeping the mountain peaks
 In the La Plata mining district, the snow is reported to be 12 to 20 feet deep. Fear is expressed that the spring thaws will bring a repetition of the floods of nine years ago when mlIrio.is of dollars was lost in property dam age.

BLAMES BUYERS
 FOR HIGH COST
 OF U. s. MEATS
Packers Say Housewives of America All Demand the
 Choice Cuts

CHICAGO, March B. Southern la- borers who are "eating too high up on the hog and American housewives who "eat too far back on the beef" are to blame for the continued high cost of living, the American Institute of Meat Packers announced today. With the export market for meat shattered by adverse foreign exchange and wholesale prices back to where they were a year and two years ago, the American consumer is chiefly respon- sible, the institutes bulletin on Febru- ary conditions says.
 Hog prices during the early part of the month were at the highest level of the winter, with receipts at the yards 10 to 20 per cent below normal, despite the fact that government reports show that there is probably a large surplus on the farms.
 In the beef market a factor which has had great influence upon the beef trade has been the relatively strong demand for hind quarter beef and the poor demand for fore quarter beef" the packers state.

CALLS HUNT IN
 |. W. W. CHARGE
Senate Committee to Summon Ex-Governor for Alleged
 Support of Reds

PHOENIX, March B. Interest in the nomination by President Wilson of George w. P. Hunt, former governor of Arizona, as minister to Siam, was intensified today by announcement at Washington that the senate foreign relations committee would make an nI- vestigation of charges that MT. Hunt had publicly declared his sympathy with the Industrial Workers of the World. The committee today decided that such an investigation should be made before the senate took action on the confirmation of MT. Hunts nomi- nation, but deferred until Friday any decision on detailed plans for hearing the case.
 Former Governor Hunt expressed in- terest but no anxiety as to the inves- tigation. Informed by telephone of the advices from Washington, he said: 'I have no comment to make other than that the charges are absolutely false and without foundation. That is all I can say at this time. Thank you for letting me know about the matter" ]"

TREATY DEBATE
 NOW HOPELESS
Senate Wrangles Without Result on Shantung
 Settlement

WASHINGTON, March 3. - While the treaty debate dragged on in the senate today without action, the trea- tvs friends began a final determined effort to rescue it from the deadlock toward which all leaders agree it again is headed.
 Republican and Democratic senators joined in the movement, but they were only moderately hopeful of success. Putting collateral issues aside, they addressed their efforts to the Republi- can reservation to article ten, long the storm center of the whole treaty fight.
 Some compromise proponents pro- fessed to see a possibility that an ac- formulated. Others believed that de- spite assurances of Democratic lead CTS, enough Democrats to put through the reservation as 1t stands might yet be induced to quit the presidents lead.
 The confidence of the treaty's ire concilable opponents apparently was not shaken, and leaders of the two parties maintained that ratification would fail
 The subject technically before the senate all day was the Shantung res ervation, but 1t got only passing men ton. Among other things, while Sen ator Reed, Democrat of Missouri, en- livened proceedings with a bitter at tack on Senator Hitchcock of Nebras- ka, the administration leader.

ator of Moultrie, Ga, told the house agriculture committee today that Swift and company, one of the "big five" by bringing in thoroughbred livestock and poultry, had been the biggest single factor in the agricul- tural development of southern Geor- gia." Vereen denied the charge of the federal trade commission that Swift and company, in order to sup press competition purchased small packing plant financed and built by farmers and business men at Moul- trie.
 Swift and company did not try to buy our plant" Vereen said. We solicited the sale in order to have a large packer develop the business and aid in general agricultural develop ment." Prior to the sale of the plant, he added, competition of the big packers was entirely fair and Swift and company did not expect profits on the purchase within five years.
 Three Wyoming stockmen also ap- peared before the committee, each urging passage of regulatory legis- lation. One of the three, J. H. Mont gomery of Basin, asserted that the whole packing industry should be put through a de-lousing station"

22OO NAMES IN VENIRFS DRAWN
 AT TOMBSTONE
Panel of 250 Is Called When Juror Is Excused
 For Opinion
(speciaI to the Review)

TOMBSTONE, March 3. - The task of completing the tentative jury panel in the trial of H. E. Wootton, Bisbee hardwafe dealer, will be re sumed at two o'clock tomorrow af. ternoon, when the seventh panel drawn since the trial was started more than a month ago, will report for examination. The "A men neces- sary before peremptory challenges are exercised have already been se- cured twice. When the first 24 were secured, two were recalled by the de- fense and challenged on grounds o1 having made disloyal remarks dur ing the war. After a vigorous at- tempt on the part of the prosecution to defend the charges against the two jurors and retain them on the jury. the challenges against them were sustained by the court.
 A tentative jurs, was again secured and both sides were instructed to prepare to exercise peremptory chal- lenges tomorrow afternoon. The ac- tual hearing of testimony was eX- pected to start Friday. Tuesday morning, however, one of the jurors, c. H. Burnett of Webb, told the court and counsel for both sides, that he held an opinion regarding the issue on trial, that this opinion was growing stronger each day and that he could not give the case a fair hear ing. He was excused and another panel of 250 names ordered drawn for the purpose of securing another juror to take his place.
 Both sides refuse to predict how long it will take to secure another man to take Burnett's place. With each panel drawn in the Wootton case it is becoming more difficult to secure talesman who can qualify un- der the strict rulings made by the court. The latest panel brings the total number of names drawn for jury examination in the Wootton case to approximately 2200. Wootton is the first of 210 defendants to be brought to trial on charges of kid mapping, growing out of his alleged participation in the deportation that ended the I. w. w. strike in the Warren district on July 12. 1917.

In lier of this, added the court. it must be shown that Grimm himself committed an overt act" on the day which construed legally, meant a move SC aggressive that a reasonable mind would term it an assault with an in tent to do bodily harm.

Wander. veer also conceded that there had been general understanding that the hall would be defended and that W. w. had posted themselves on the hills in places other than the hall The circumstances, he declared, justified such plan of "self defense and the killing of everyone around there"
 Several witnesses were excused this afternoon after the court had, in ac- cord with the ruling. sustained ob- iections to their testimony in the ab- sence of the jury. Counsel then read into the record an offer to prove that the employers association had plot ted to rid Centralia of the I.
