FEAR HOUSE BILL
Senate Agrees to Vote on
Packer Control Today.
Some Kind of Regulation Act
Certain of Passage.

Washington, June 16.-The senate
is under agreement to vote on the
packer control bill late today.
Some kind of bill will pass. it ap-
peared certain as the final days de-
bate. began. But whether it will be
the house bill empowering the secre-
tary of agriculture to regulate the
meat packing industry. or the senate
bill, entrusting such regulation to a
commissioner under the secretary of
agriculture, appeared doubtful
Even Senator Norris, part author OF
the senate measure, was not over
! confident today of acceptance of his
/ plan as a substitute for that worked
out by the house.
What Norris and other advocates OF
drastic packer control fear is that the
| house bill will be forced thru by the
votes of those who, while wishing tc
appear in the light of favoring regula-
tory legislation for great public utili-
ties. in reality do not want any effec-
| tive regulation of the packers or any
| other industry.
| The house bill, in the opinion o1
senators, would create the semblancs
of regulation and control without theil
substance. 1t is capable of so many
. different constructions and is so vague
and indefinite they assert that i
i amounts to nothing binding.
In the senate bill. the packers art
forbidden to: Engage in discrimina
] tory or unfair practices; apportior
business or business territory among
themselves; agree to fix or contro
| prices; engage in business other THAI
meat packing; to conspire or agree t,
defeat the purposes of federal regula
ton as outlined in the pending bill
own or control stockyards within twt
years from passage of the bill.

TO BACK STILLMAN
Society Leaders Help Banker In
Divorce Suit.
All Evidence to Prove Little
Guy Not His Son.

Poughkeepsie, N. Y, June 16.-
When hearings were resumed today
in the Stillman divorce case, additional
back stairs" testimony was expected
to be introduced, purporting to indi-
cate that Fred Beauvais, French
Canadian guide, is the father of Guy
Stillman, 2-year-old son of Mrs. James
A. Stillman.
-Four more surprise witnesses
were produced by Stillman's counsel
shortly before noon recess today. An
aged man and three middle-aged
women, obviously French-Canadians
arrived in the automobile of Cornelius
]. Sullivan. the bankers chief attor-
ney, accompanied by a private detec-
tive They were expected to. testify
regarding Mrs. Stil1man's alleged rela-
tions with Beauvais on the Stillmar
farm near Three. Rivers, Quebec.
Most of the witnesses yesterday,
when the hearings were resumed be-
fore Referee Gleason after a lapse of
several weeks, were former servants of
the Stillman household The burden
of their testimony was that Stillma
and his wife were living apart from
January to April, 1918. Guy was born
in November of that year. More SER
wants were expected to testify today.
Mrs. Percy A. Rockefeller. sister of
Stillman, who offered similar testi-
mony; was a surprise witness" There
were unconfirmed reports that other
witnesses prominent in society might
testify for the former president of the
National City bank.
When the hearings are resumed
June 2S after adjournment tomorrow,
Stillman will take the stand for cross
examination. This was agreed upon

case.

he DIDN'T APPEAR
Executive Warrant Has Been
Issued for StradfOrd.
Negro Is Charged With Ineiting
Tulsa Race Riot.

Governor Allen this afternoon issued
an executive warrant for J. B. Strad-
ford, alleged race riot instigator, who
did not appear to oppose extradition
asked by Governor Robertson of Okla
homa. Reports from Independence,
where Stradford was arrested in con-
nection with the recent race riots, in
dicate the negro is a fugitive from
justice.
Stradford gave bond for appearance
following his arrest by Montgomery
county officials. That was June 10.
dence this morning were to the effect
that he had not been seen since that
time.
Long Wait in Governors office.
While Judge C. w. Smith, executive
clerk, was collecting information in
debating that Stradford had continued
his hasty travels, a large delegation OF
Topeka negroes-including two law
yers who appeared to represent Strad-
ford-waited in the governors office
for the hearing to begin. Attorney
General Freezing and Prosecutor
Seavers, of Tulsa, were also present 20
represent the state of Oklahoma IT
the application for return of the ne
gro hotel proprietor.
Failure of Stradford to appear in
/ opposition to the request for his re-
| turn to Oklahoma led promptly TO Is
suance of an executive warrant Tor MS
arrest anywhere in Kansas. 1t is also
probable that failure to report prompt
| ly to the Montgomery county court
| will result in forfeiture of his bond.
The first intimation that Stradford
was in Kansas came to the governors
office several days after the Tulsa riot
A telegram from Montgomery county
negroes protested against his removal
from Kansas. Later Governor Robert
son asked Governor Allen for writ

| Stradford gave notice that he would
resist extra dition. He provided bond

HARVEST IS EARLY
Farmers of Western Kansas in
Mad Scramble.
Cannot Get Workers Enough to
Supply Demand.

Hutchinson, Kan, June 16.-Wheat
farmers of southwestern Kansas today
were engaged in a mad scramble for
hands to harvest the bumper crop.
Labor shortage also menaced harvest
ing of wheat in Oklahoma counties,
the Texas Panhandle and other north
ern Texas counties.
With urgent calls for help flooding
the state employment office from
Kansas wheat belt counties, farmers
are resorting to former tactics OF
bidding for hands on the railroad sta
ton platforms as they alight from in
coming trains.
The harvest season is practically
two weeks earlier than usual and the
harvest hand demand was about five
hundred in excess of supply in Reno
county. With the Oklahoma cutting
in full swing, virtually no relief has
been arrived from the 'floater army
which moves northward.
Calls for more men have been re-
ceived here from Texas and Oklahoma
farmers.
The SO day wage agreed upon by
farmers has been discarded in many
instances where $4 a day is being paid
and as high as $6 a day is being bid
According to early reports today,
the labor shortage affected the follow
ing localities:
Kiowa county, Kansas. 500 men;
LYON county, SO men: within 100-mile
radius of Wichita, 1000 men.
A call for 1000 men, coming from
Tyrone, Okla. had not been entirely
filled Reports indicate the shortage
general in Texas and Oklahoma, some
counties being directly affected.
