Bill to Control
Packers Draws
Fire in Senate
Illinois and Maine Congress-
men Attack Gronna Meas
ure as Interfering With
Private Industry.

Washington, Jan. 2l.-Proposed
government regulation OF the meat
packers and allied industries drew
fire in the senate from two senator's
Sherman OF Illinois and Fernald Of
Maine, both republicans.
The two senator's ] opposed the
pending Gronna regulatory bill as
an unwarranted interference with a
particular private industry, prin-
ciple which, they said, might be ex-
tended injuriously, to other lines of
business.
Opposition of both senator's to the
measure which will be voted on next
Monday also included attacks upon
the federal trade commission, which
has supported the legislation. Sen
ator Sherman, charging that the
commissions criticisms of the big
FIVE" packers had injured their ex-
port trade, declared that copy of
one of the commissions reports got
into the hands of the British board Of
trade months before it was made
public in this country.
A substitute for the Gronna bill
was, introduced by Senator Sterling,
republican. South Dakota. proposing
transfer of government regulation of
the meat industry to hie federal
trade commission instead OF the new
live stock commission. provided in
the Gronna bill. Mr.. Sterling's sub
stitute also provided for less federal
supervision than the Gronna bill and
had as one OF its principal provisions,
publicity of meat packing affairs.

Policy Plan
Of Harding
Takes Stand That U. S. Should
Keep Clear of European
Affairs and Stand Pat on
Monroe Doctrine.
Has Doubts About Treaty
BY ARTHUR SEARS HENNING
Chicago Tribune Omaha lee Leased Wire,

Chicago Tribune Omaha lee Isased Wir.
Washington, Jan. Ala strongly
nationlistic foreign policy is to be
initiated by Prcsidcnt-elect Harding
immediately upon assuming office,
according to senator's returning from
the final conferences At Marion.
To help ourselves as we'll as
others, in contrast with the Wilson
policy Of helping others and rot ou-.
selves, is said to be the keynote 70
the policy Senator Harding plans TO
pursue. II is with this end in view
that he has been informing himself
in detail Of conditions abroad and
the aim he has disclosed in his dis
cussion of his policies with almost
every visitor to Marion.
Mr.. Harding has been taking stocl:
OF the interests Of the United States,
either sacrificed or impaired bv
President Wilson in developing his
scheme of internationalism. particu-
larly in the Paris peace negotiations.
To salvage what he can. to recon-
struct and to strengthen the conf
n,anding position Of the United
States in the world, is the Harding
program.
Entanglemen.s Avoided.
The information the president
elect has received concerning the
state OF affairs in Europe las CON-
vinced him it is nothing short of
providential that America has been
saved from ENHANCEMENT in the
rivalries. jealousies. greed. imperial
istic designs and International con-
Germs OF European states, such as
would have been produced ny ratifi-
cation of the Versailles treaty and
League of Nations without change.
Mr.. Harding is represented as
more strongly than ever of the op;n-
ion that America should keep clea:
Of participation in European affairs
andstand pat ON the principle of
the Monroe doctrine that European
nations should keep hands off the
affairs of the American continents.
Doubts Versailles Pact.
Under the circumstances. there
fore, the president-clec doubts thar
it is feasible to accept the Versailles
treaty unless it should be very ma
terially modified. not only in respect
to the League Of Nations covenant.
which in any event it would be nee
essary to eliminate. but in respect
to the peace terms proper from
which it will be necessary to cx-
'clude provisions for the participation
Of the United States iii the multitude
of commission which are to regu.
'ate the affairs of Europe fer years
to come.
He is still intent, however, upon
ending the present anomalous and
fictitious state of war with Germany
and therefore more inclined than
ever to favor the restoration OF peace
by legislation. such as the Knox
resolution, vetoed by President Will
son.

punishment which European nations
intend to visit upon the United

it was only temporary and the pay,

enable them to support their fam

who have accepted jobs to go on

President-Elect
To Forget Cases
During Vacation
Harding Plans to Lay Aside
All Business Worries While
On Fishing Jaunt in
Southland.

On Board President-clect Hard
ing's Train, Jan. 2f.-President-elect
Harding put his cares out of mind
tonight as he ncared Florida and
told his companions on his vacation
Jaunt that he proposed to forget en-
tirely for the next two weeks the
important decisions that are ahead
of him.
Except for short time during the
afternoon when he worked on cor
respondcnce that had been crowded
out in the final preparations for
leaving Marion. he rested and de-
ported himself as an ordinary tourist
during his days trip southwark
across Kentucky and Tennessee.
His private Car, attached to a regu-
lar passenger train, attracted un-
usual attention at only one or two
stations along the way.
Arriving at St. Augustine shortly
before noon tomorrow. Mr.. Har-
ding expects to get into his vaca-
ton clothes at once and after game
of golf go aboard the fouseboat
selected as his home during the
fishing expedition that will occupy
his first two weeks i'll the south.
Spirits Rise.
Mr.. Hardings spirits rose appar-
emily at the prospect of his respite
and although he looked more care
worn than when he passed through
Kentucky and Tennessee in October
on a campaign trip, he greeted with
a smile the groups that gathered
around his car at various stops to
shake his hand. At Oakdale, Tenn,
where there was delay of IS min
utes to change engines, he got OUT
and entertained a grinning audience
of railway switchnen by walking a
rail with the spryness OF a 15-year-
old
Despite his efforts to get away
from his worries, however, specula-
ton about the cabinet situation in
creased rather than diminished
among those with him ON his trip.
At the same time indications multi
fiied that. the whole problem still is.
H StdtG VI ttdN anu ttdt IIhot
decisions on every one Of the 10 cab.
met places must be reached during
Mr.. Harding's stay in Florida.
Many Elements Unsettled.
1t was said authorjtatively that
such tenders of cabinet places as
the president-elect has made are con-
ditional and that many elements OF
the situation remain to be harmo-
nized before there can be actual Sc
lections. The latest suggestions
heard among those close to Mr..
Harding is that Charles E. Hughes,
generally regarded as a leading pos
sibilitv for secretary of state, might
be offered the attorney generalship
instead, AID that the state portfolio
might be given to Elihu Root, whose
friends are understood to be bring
ing strong pressure to bear in his
behalf.
In the same quarters it has been
proposed that Charles G. Dawes of
Chicago, urged prominently for Sec
retary of the treasury, be given the
position of governor of the federal
reserve board. leaving the treasury
post for A.;W. Mellon of Pittsburgh.
So far as Mr.. Harding himself is
concerned. however, he is maintain
ing silence and is putting the whole
question over for decision after he
returns to St. Augustine from his
fishing trip.

For Revival of Construc.
ton on Large Scale,
Experts Declare.
Sterilization Is Necessary
by The Associated rreks.

Chicago, Jan. 2l.--Two hundred
building material men from all parts
OF the country, in conference to de-
wise means OF starting national
building boom with the object OF
bringing down rents. were told by
speakers today that there could be
no general building revival until the
prices OF building materials went
down.
II. {. Baldwin. building expert
from Wellesley Hills, Mass, told the
conference that while there would be
a Slight increase in building this
summer there would be no return 10
normal before the fall OF 1922, or the
spring of 1928.
Wait for Price Drop.
There can be no building boom
un.'l the prices of building materials
are stabilized" he. said. "Pcople will
not build homes for fear that prices
&nay come down. and investors will
Vlot lend money on a declining mar
kct. They will wait until they are
satisfied that they will get the most
ior their money. Business aud prices
will not reach normalcy before 1922
ors 1928, SO there can be no national
building boom until then"
There can be no decrease in rents
while building prices remain rs at
present. G. NJ. Reynolds, chairman
Of the bocrd OF directors OF the Con-
tincntal md Commercial bank, said.
Prices Above Normal.
( Building prices now are from 100
to zoo per cent higher than they
were in normal times" he said. Il
know OF buildings being erected now
at cost of 90 cents a cubic feet.
while in normal times the cost ran
as low as 80 cents. While such con-
dlt'on exists, rents will stay up."
John M. Kirby, president of the
National Lumber Manufacturers as
sociation and presiding officer a. the
conference, said that manufacturers
OF most building materials had not
kept pace with the price reductions
made by lumber manufacturers"

Man Who Helped Draft Yer

France Might Object

Washington, Jan. 2l.-Anothcr Of
the American commissioners who
helped draft the treaty of Versailles
Henry White, ambassador to
France under President Roosevelt
told the house naval committee that
the time was ripe for world dis
armament and that the United States
should initiate the movement

The committee already has heard
Gen. Tasker H. Bliss. former Amer
lean representatives on the supreme
war council and member of the
peace delegation; Secretary Daniels
and Acting Secretary Davis OF the
State department.
People Want Lower Taxes.
Mr.. White gave it as his opinion
that the great burden of taxation
resulting from the war made the
people of all nations anxious to cut
down on expenditures for arma-
ments. He expressed it that the
world was crying for some agree
ment" to limit armaments as a
means of reducing taxes.
Discussing the proposed naval
holiday the former ambassador said
he did not think the United States
should stop the naval construction
it now has under way. He said he
would like to see the United States
at the top when the disarmament dis
cussion begins and suggested that
the relative sizes of navies could be
fixed by agreement at the proposed
conference. He added that ques-
tons raised at the conference might
show "the right of some nations
Great Britain for instance-to
larger navy than others"
France May Object.
Because of threatened spread of
bolshevism, the witness said, France
might object to disarmament on
land. In this connection, he said
that "the state of chaos" in which
Germany had been kept over repara-
tons was doing more to open the
way to bolshelssm than any other
single factor.
As to the time of calling coll
