SEES "vIcIoUs AGITATION -
Head Of Morris Company Scores
Packers Critics

Future Of the packing industry in
the United States depends entirely
on whether the vicious propaganda
and agitation is to be continued
against this vital industry, or whether
the people are going to take a hand
in the matter and handle it along
safe and sane lines" says Edward
Morris. president of Morris & Co..
in statement today.
The packers solution of the mat.
ter is appointment of a capable. dis
interested and non-political commit
tee to study the whole subject from
the calf on the farm to the staaL
on the table, including the producer
the packer and the retailer and let
this committee bring forth a report
on which something constructive and
lasting can be based.
Il do not make this suggestion
says Mr.. Morris, "in order to defer ac-
ton or in the interest of time he
cause this industry is being seriousIv
injured every day this needless ana
harmful agitation is prolonged.
This talk about the packers being
stronger than the government and
threatening to monopolize the Amer
can table is merely propaganda to
create a bitter prejudice against the
packers and as smole screen to hide
the real object of the parties back of
the agitation-that of price fixing"

RELATIONS.
BEFORE CABINET.
President and Secretary Dis
cuss Questions for Over
Two Hours.

For more than two hours today
President Harding and his cabinet
discussed the foreign relations of the
United State& following presentation
for the first time by Secretary Of
Sate- Hughes Of a survey of the for
eign situation.
1t was made known following the
meeting that during this discussion
the most important features brought
up were those relating to restored
relationship, trade and the develop
ment OF the newer nations.
1t is understood that the European
situation was touched on only as a
part OF the general picture, and that
no specific questions involving the
league of nations or other European
connections were discussed.
Mail Question Up.
Another matter brought before the
cabinet which was considered inn
portant was the appeal made by Post
master General Hays to the President.
the Vice President and the other
members of the cabinet to set about
the correction in their departments Of
the present system of the sending
out OF government mail.
Postmaster General Hays presented
hgures showing that in Washington the
city post office receives daily 700, 600
letters and postcards and 5000 sacks
Of mail. the most amazing part of it
being. he said. that only 100,0 Of the
letters and postcards are mailed be-
tween am. and pm, the remaining
800, 900 being mailed between 4 pm. and
8 pm, the greater part of it being be-
tween 4 and pm.
This practice of dumping the mail
upon the local post office between the
hours specified is considered by Post
master General Hays as natural
detrinlent to the service, and mas
much as rs per cent of the mail comes
from the various government depart
ments, he told his chief and his asso-
ciates that no time should be lost in
bringing about a reform.
President Responds.
President Harding was the first to
respond to the Postmaster Generals
appeal by saying that the executive
force would be directed accordingly,
and the Vice President and the other
cabinet officers each in turn said they
would give their support.
Other matters discussed by the cab
met were the legislative program. the
proposed creation of war liuuida-
tion commission to distribute and dis
pose of the accumulation of property
as result of the war. the packers
situation and the increased shipments
to this country of hides, beef, wood
and grain.
President Harding announced after
the cabinet meeting that he would see
the newspaper men every Tuesday
afternoon at l o'clock and Friday aft
ernoons at 4 o'clock, these days being
cabinet days.
