guarding our own constitution and

President Hagenbarth described
the railroad service during the past
two years as Unsatisfactory and
damaging to live stock" In all, he
said, the railroad service has been
'wretched and badly disorganized"
and asserted the losses Of the grow

President H~agenbarth laid stress
upon the shortage of freight cars.
Double deck cars are especially need

sheep.

He emphasized the necessity of
competition with English and foreign
wool. Eat the present we are large

to what prices on fine wool should

Haxenbarth told the delegates it
would be well for wool growers to
adopt the bonus system or. co-opera-
tive plan to make It possible for

an interest in the business.

Complaints should come through
national trade commissions, Mr..
Thompson said, and each cause tried
before representatives of the 'interna-
tional body not belonging to the nation
whose citizens were involved in the
litigation.
THE definition Of what was an un-
fair trade practice before this COM
mission could be found in the trade
practices already condemned by the
laws of many nations, both ancient
and MODERN" Mr.. Thompson said,

The answer Is the same as in our do

there moi every lease to believe that

tive national trade commissions the
industries in each nation would write

list, of unfair practices just as they
are doing in this country"
A national trademark, established
by congress as a means Of increasing
national pride and controlling, the
quality of goods exported from the

Thompson. Failure On the part Of an

grade and quality as samples would
be sufficient cause for refusing per-
