THE big question in this matter IS
whether legislation establishing q
Governmental bureau 10 control and
regulate a private business is advis-
able.
TWO MAIN IDEAS.
There are two ideas running
through all the proposed legislation.
One idea Is that commission,
through its rules and regulations,
having the effect OF law, aimed at
tying the packing industry hand and
foot to the dictation of appointees.
can stabilize the price of live stock
and OF meat
"The other idea is that a commits
sion, with power to investigate, prose-
cute, and judge, untrammeled R the
legal rules of evidence, may accom-.
plish justice more expeditously and
more accurately than the courts Of
law now do.
THE first idea ignores the law of
supply and demand and is based upon
the theory that the packers have the
power to fix the prices for live stock
or for meats at will. The second idea,
If carried to its logical conclusion.
would eliminate courts of justice and
substitute government by men for
government by law.
''If the charges made by the Fed
eral Trade Commission against the
Packing industry were true, there are
already sufficient laws upon the
statute books under which they could
be prosecuted and punished"

MAY GET ONE
 CONGRESSMAN

WASHINGTON, Oct. s.-(By the A. P.)-Examination of the final census figures of the country which place the total population of contin- ental United States at 105, ,6S3,10S in dicates that the west and the south proportionately will gain more in a political way than the east or mid dle west through increased member ship in the house of representatives, more votes in the electoral college and in larger delegations to the na- tional political conventions. This result will obtain which whatever basis of proportionment is adopted by Congress next winter.
 As a result of the increase of 13,- 710,S42 in population during the past ten years, fifty new seats must be added to the House to prevent any state from losing any part of its present representation.
 For the past half century the precedent has been to increase the size of the House so as to prevent loss of existing representation by any states.
 If this precedent is followed this year five additional representatives seats must be given to California, four each for New York, Ohio, Penn sylvania and Michigan; three ii H. setts, New Jersey and North Caro- lima, and one each to Alabama, Ari- zona, Connecticut, Georgia, Mary land, Montana, New Mexico, Okla homa, Oregon, South Carolina Tennessee, Washington, West Vir- ginia, Wisconsin, Virginia, Arkansas and Minnesota.

HARDING FINDS LEAGUE PACT IS
 BIGGEST ISSUE
(By George R. Holmes)

Enroute with Senator Harding, Omaha, Neb., Oct. Swell satisfied that Nebraska and Iowa are safely Republican by big majorities, Senator Warren C.. Harding swung SouthWard today into the closely contested state tof Missouri.
 Senator Harding has found in th1s brief invasion of the Middle West lthat the League of Nations is the lparamount issue and at every stop, whether it has been for a day or ten minutes, his audience have been loath Ito let him go without some declara- ton on the League issue. Conse- quently the League will receive more and more attention as he goes along.
 Both in DesMoines and in Omaha lthe Democratic newspapers have lpublished questionnaires on the Geague issue addressed to Senator IHarding, with requests that he an lswer them.
 Here in Omaha the newspaper owned by Senator Gilbert M. Hitch cock who managed the president fight in the senate for the league | published a series of questions to the Republican candidate, ranging from one which asked if he was in 'ac- cord with Borah" clear down to why he voted against confirming Louis D | Brandeis for the Supreme court.
 Senator Harding largely ignored these questions except to say that he | and Senator Borah were now il l "perfect accord"

SENATE IS
 SEEKING CONTROL!
Cox Warns Country
 Senatorial Or o w d Planning to Get Abso- lute Control of Su- prerne Court, of Con gress> and Presidency.
(By Hagry L. Rogers)

Enroute with Governor Cox, Pa ducah, Ky, Oct. S'Absolute control of the Supreme Court of the United States, of Congress and the presiden- toriaI oligarchy is playing, Governor James M. Cox charged in his speech here today.
 Four Supreme Court justices are likely to be appointed during the next presidential administration, Governor Cox pointed out, and insisted that it
 would naturally follow that Sena- tor Harding if elected would appoint reactionary members, thus binding the country to reaction" for the bet ter part of a generation.
 ''It is a simple matter for the peo- pie to make a change in the executive and legislative branches of the gov
 ernment," the governor continued, but not in the judicial. As l see it this is a real danger of a reactlonary victory, next to the scrapping of the League of Nations there are three branches of the government-the leg islative and executive and the judi cial. Throughout the years the Sen ate has trespassed upon the authority
 of the House of Representatives. The
 constitution provides that all legisla-
 ton having to do with the raising of
 revenue shall be initiated in the
 House. Yet there has probably not
 been a single tariff measure in the
 last 50 years which was not changed
 in it's. every line after the enacting clause once it reached the Senate. By the nomination of one of it's
 own members as the reactionary candidate for the presidency it now has the oportunity of annexing the executive department. If the sena- toria1 ring should win the election it would, in addition to controlling the president also possess the consti- tutional right of confirmation of ! mem bers of Nthe Supreme court ap- pointed by the president. Four members of the court being now l eligible for retirement there will be- yond doubt be at least four vacan- l four years.
 1 Tt will be seen at a glance that the 1 senatorial crowd is playing for big l than absolute control of the three 1 constitutional branches of our gov. ] ernment. No president of the United l States will appoint any one that ht | deems unworthy of a place on th' l highest court of the land but we mus ! be reminded that the senatoria l nominee for the presidency has con i firmed himself many times in theor. ] of plural government which cam that he will not only confer with tn, 1 group around him but that this Sam' group has the constitutional right t. apply it's check if the president shou1t it would naturally follow that a re actionary president would appoin : four reactionary members of the Su preme court. This would bind tn country to reaction for the better par of a generation
