URGES FEDERAL
REGULATION OF
MEAT PACKING
Wallace in Fauor of
Reasonable Super
l,ision.

Washington, May 5.-Federal
regulation Of the meat packing in
dustry is very desirable now" to
aid the livestock industry, Secre-
tary Wallace declared today before
q house committee holding hear
ings on proposed regulatory legis-
lation.
The agricultural secretary sug-
gested that his department be
charged with the administration of
the law, as it had a larger number
of men familiar with the industry
and also that the farmers felt it
was closer to them than possibly
any other government agency.
Mr.. Wallace told the committee
he was unable to understand why
the packers should oppose such
legislation, as reasonable supervis-
ion Of their industry might have the
effect of needing the criticisms to
which they have been subjected.
Secretary Wallace asked the
cOmmlttee to give his department
power to make studies of the price
movement and economic changes in
methods of distributing agricultural
products.
ut seems to me the government
should provide agencies in the de-
partment of agriculture which may
give continuous study to price
movements and the distribution oi
greater agricultural commodities,
the secretary said. The Unitet
States is now undergoing profound
economic changes which ma!
change the relationship and th'
balance for all our people. 1t ii
most important that We have tn
data which will enable US to deter
mino the general trend"

HARDING WANTS
| SENATE TO STOP
| INTERFERING
President Rese,,ts In
uasion of Pre-.
rogafipe.
By DAVID LAWRENCE.
(Special to The Argus.)

Washington. May 5.-President
Harding looks somewhat care
worn. The weight Of responsible
ity rests heavily on him. No longer
does he wear the senatorial man
ner, the seeming ease and abandon
of the capitol cloakrooms; he looks
and acts the part of a chief execu-
tive, whose time for smiles and
banter are lost in the seriousness
Of a huge task.
The correspondent saw the
president on Tuesday just after a
cabinet meeting. MIR. Harding had
a burdensome day. He started a
movement for economy in the gov
ernment departments-a pruning OF
all expenses. That's only a part
of his job-the affirmative side. He
betrayed uneasiness over other
phases Of it-what may be called
the negative side-preventing some
of his former colleagues Of the SEN
ate from harassing him.
The president has found it neces-
sary to beg the senate to remember
that the chief executive can't do e.
fective work il the members of the
legislative body insist on invading
what he considers his legitimate
jurisdiction-the handling of for
eign policy, questions Of disarma.
ment, the recall of troops from the
Rhine and kindred matters.
MIR. Harding isn't seeking quar-.
rel with the senate. He is doing
everything in his power to avoid
one. But all the senators aren't
cooperating with him in a way tina,
spells teamwork. Time was wher
members of congress would keel
the White house informed if they
intended introducing bills or max
ing speeches that touched on thu
sphere of the executive. AS con
sequence little evidences Of lack o
teamwork are exaggerated init
reports Of friction.
Springs Surprise.
The most important case in poin
has just been cleared up at th'
White house. And everybody VIII,

invitation to the United States

that she would lose no time In

the expression by Italy Of hoe

to take up the question at this

Works Through Community
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS to
Lovers of Children

.uono many different lines of
onen to graduates in the col
II agriculture, is to be found
90 the extension service. In
\. service there are three branches
which graduates may enter:
.,tv agricultural agent work, boys
= Urls club work, and specialists.
mha work of the county agricul-
al agent includes many lines of
,.rm activities, as well as commun-
i progress. One of his big pro-
W. is to help farmers in the organi-
tim of community groups, and
.,on help outline and carry out a
..ogram for the betterment of farm
.,.ctices in this group. The former
,aoa Of the county agent was to go
,,om farm to farm and give advice,
sut in county where there are many
Aousand farmers, this is impossible,
- now it is working with the group.
mthis work is done through demon
,trations on different farms in vari-
ma communities. AS an example,
mo county agent will start a demon
stration in the use of different kinds
n fertilizers on certain crops and
place these demonstrations among
the farmers in sections of the county
where soil conditions differ. When
tbe demonstration has been run,
tour among the farmers will be ar
ranged, and the farmers of the
county will be given an opportunity
TO see the results from the various
kinds of fertilizers
Club Work Real Profit
Boys and girls club work offers a
splendid opportunity for a young fell
low who likes to work with children.
It has as its object, the teaching of
the best bethods of farming to the
farm boys and girls; the develop
ment of character and a desire on
the part of the club members to re-
main on the farm. The most promi-
nent live stock men in the state make
the assertion that in the live stock
boys and girls clubs. rests the future
Of the live stock business. When it
is possible for a boy in a sheep club
TO develop a ram lamb which will
win the championship at the Wash
ington State fair and the Oregon
state fair in the open class. against
old breeders, it gives a person some
idea of the scope of boys and girls
club work.
The work of the extension special
ls is to transmit the teachings and
results of the experiment station and
college, so that they will have an APP

CEMETERY WORK
BY WOMAN'S CLUB
Ladies Appeal for Help in Getting
Friendship Cemetery In Pre-
sentable Shape for Home
Coming week.

The Civic Committee of the
Woman's Club has undertaken to
direct the work of getting Friendship
Cemetery in some sort Of shape for
the Home Coming" The time is
very short Funds have only now be-
come available. The Kiwanians have
donated $100 to assist this work, and
ladies will have coYps of workers
on hand Monday morning whose
labors they will personally supervise.
While this sum Of 500 will go a
long way, judicially expended, it is by
no means adequate, and must be sup
plemented in every way possible. A
special appeal is therefore made for
contributions of hands. If you have
a man in your employ, won't you lend
him to the ladies for a day, or even
a half day on Monday or Tuesday,
This request applies equally to those
living in the outlying districts who
have more hands available. The prin-
cipal problem is one of getting ade
Quate labor. If ten or fifteen men can
be secured for several days, great
can be made in the
general appearance of the cemetery.
Will not everyone interested please
note the following:
Q) Have your own squares put in
order and notify friends who may not
see this appeal to do likewise.
(2) Lend one or more laborers for
a day, or even half day. Monday
or Tuesday. Notify Mrs. Battle Bell
TO this effect.
(3) Respond if called on by the /
Civic Committee to serve in directing
his work.
