They returned, incidentally, when the republicans acquired con trol in 1918.

LAFOLLETsTE SAYS PACKERS AppRnVED THE BILL.

Washington, June 8.-(Special.l-- The bill introduced in the House by Representative Haugen of Iowa, pro- viding for governmental regulation of the packing industry, passed by the House and sustained by the Senate after an attempt was made to substitute Senate bill, was approved by the packers, according to chafg es os Senator LaFollette of Wisconsin.
 Senator LaFollette, in proving his charges, presented to the Senate the original bill introduced by Mir. Haul gen with interlinear corrections and suggestions made, he charged, by a MT. Lightfoot, attorney for thel five big packers. Of these proposed amendments, continued Senator La Toilette, the House committe accept cd seven, and the House, Itself, voted them into existence.
 Immediately after Senator LaFol- lette preferred the charges, the Sen ate voted down the motion of Senator Norris to substitute for the Haugen hill the Senate bill, which indicated that the Senate did not object to the work of Lightfoot, or that 1t had little regard Tor the charges of La Toilette.
 In this connection, It Is publicly stated today that the o-called coal regulation bill Is not held in absolute abhorrence by the National Associa- ton of Coal Operators, with head quarters in Washington. It Is pub rely stated that the bill, bearing the name of Senator Frelinghuysen of New Jersey, was in fact prepared by Senator Cummlns of Iowa, author of the Cummins- -Esch railroad act of 1920.

FLORALA MAS0NS WILL. CELEBRATE FIFTlETH. ANNIVERSARY JUNE "A.

F1orala, June 1s.-(Special.)- )-Flor. citizens are looking forward to as one of the largest crowds that has ever assembled here, on June 24, at the annual Masinic celebration to be held here on that date. This will mark the fiftieth annual celebration of the Masonic festival of St. Johns Day at this point.
 Long before Florala was founded as city the inhabitants of south Alabama and north Florida estab- lished the custom of observing this day on the shores of the beautiful lake which was then known as Me- Dade's pond. After Florala and Lock- hart were founded. the custom was continued and will continue as long as the Masonic fraternity live here, for they have written 1t into their by laws that 1t shall be q perpetual date for home coming and making merry.
 Cooks will begin Monday. morning to dig the pits and make ready for the barbecue. They will be cooking meat all day Wednesday and Thursday. so as to be ready to serve all visitors Friday at noon.
 Hon. Charles Mcdowell of Eufaula will be present on that day and de- liver the annual Masonic address. George A. Beauchamp of Montgom- cry will be present for the fourteenth consecutive year and install the offi- cers of the various lodges in attend ance. Visitors will throng the streets and spend the day in boating, swim ming, attending baseball games. fly ing. singing and making merry in other ways, as they may feel inclined. Troy will send her strong baseball team here for a game on that day, and the local boys are looking for ward to revenge for losing a series of games in Troy recently.

ministration, wrecked tho democratic party, added that if "uplifr sena- tors forced the Harding administrh- ton to pursue an Identical policy, they would wreck the republican party.
 Senator King of Utah, speaking on the same subject, expressed wonder as to when and how and where the tendency of government regulation would end. He pointed to the fact that as soon as the Congress had created commission to control the packing industry, 1t would proceed to enact the Frelinhuysen bill for the control of the coal industry. He added that he had received petitions urging that the government appoint a commission to regulate the shoe industry to the end that the shoes sold the country might be only of best material retailed at cost plus only a reasonable profit.
 Certain Schools
 There is a school in the Senate. and in the House, which holds that the government should regulate every industry which Is concerned with interstate commerce. There Is also a school which insists that the government. only in extreme or ex- traordinary cases. should interfere with business.
 The latter schools argument IS based on the obvious fact that as result of logical sequence, the govern ment will be so busy regulating that it will have no time to give business of governing, Senator King, in this connection, says:
 If we are to begin the regulation of enterprises upon the theory thar they produce things essential for the welfare of the people. I see no place where we are going to stop. l see no point where we will draw the line, The packers bill will be followed by bill to regulate the coal business. I hear that there Is bill in process of construction to regulate the smelters of the United States. Shelters are engaged in interstate commerce, and the contention Is made that they are charging too much for the smelting of ores, as result of which the small producer is being driven out of business. They want the federal government to appoint inspectors and regulate charges"
 Senator Elkina of West Virginia, is so seriously concerned with the tendency of Congress to regulate business, that he has carried the case to the President. He has recalled to tho mind of the President that during the campaign and sinco, he made

 Elkins Issues Interview
 Senator Elkins. following his in- teryiew, made no statement rela- tive to the attitude of the govern ment. It Is understood. however, that the President agreed that business reformation can be carried too far. As If assured of his ground, follow ing his talk with Mir. Harding, Sena- tor Elklns Issued an interview in which he reminded his republican colleagues that they would wreck the republican party unless they abandoned a course headed for simon pure paternalsm.
 Senator Fernald, In an address op- posing the packers bill, declared that nothing came of reformation, that the miseries of the world con tinued to obtain, and that for -helr money, the people got nothing like an adequate return. "I used to think he said, that initiating a reform was a kind of indoor duty-that it ought to begin at home, that every body, if they were going to reform their habits, should begin in their closets and on their knees.
 6ut Ilnu that l was enLlrely mistaken on the subject. It is an out door sport. You have to create com missions in Washington and you must have $10,000 men. You cannot have men who are paid any less. Start in with S10,000 men. Then you have to have agents to go about, and public men to assemble in different places and talk these things over; and there must be women advocates to cover the country to tell the people about 1t. Once start a commission, and add the burden of the farmers who pay the taxes millions and million to the burden they now bear"
 As to the futility or reformation, 1t was asserted during the debate that along with prohibition of the liquor traffic, the people were pro- missed an end of shocking crime, and great wealth represented in the money saved because of the absence of purchasable liquor. It was stated that the crime waves continue ana people are as hard up as they ever were"

ANTI-BLUE LAW LEAGUE
 TO CONVENE IN WAsHINGTON

Washington, June 1S-(Special.)- J. The Anti Blue Law League of Amer lea, Inc, will convene in Washington In annual convention October l. Members of the national council and state superintendents to the number Of 1000 will participate in the con- vention. The feature will be pa rade Tuesday, October 4.
 The first day of the convention will witness a review of the blue law situation throughout the United States. Sunday, the second day, will bring forth sermons throughout the United States by ministers who op- pose blue laws. The third day will send delegates to Congress for the purpose of presenting petition signed by thousands of voters against the enactment of any blue laws.
 The various organizations, with Headquarters in Washington. which are lobbying to the end that popular amusements may be censored, and aI- legged Sunday evils eliminated, de- clare the Anti-Blue Law league an organization formed for the purpose of setting up a straw man and knocking 1t down again. The Anti Blue Law league, however, declares the advocates of blue laws are pro- ceeding very carefully and very se- cretly They point out the fact that the Anti-Saloon league made haste slowly They insist that the situa- tion is serious enough to bear warcn- ing. that the price of liberty is eser- nal vigilance.
 The Anti Saloon league, holding that the majority of the members of the Anti Blue Law league are anti indicate belief that the league was formed as a silent protest against prohibition, that the league Is fighting prohibition, and is preparing to get openly into move ment for the election of a wet" or at least a damp" Congress next year.
 Crawford H. Ellis. president of the Anti-Blue Law league, makes no de- fense of H1r>elf or his organization. He holds that unless the "agitators' are checked, tobacco will be quickly moving pictures emascu- lated, baseball and football tabooed and the New England ducking stool re- established for the punishment of those who offend the parsons"
 Washington, in the capacity of ob- server. Is intensely interested in the plans of the league, and the captious W ashingtonians. 1t is already known to be fact, will participate in the parade.
