Packer Bill
Is Passed
By Senate
House Draft With Slight
Amendments Approved by
Vote of As to 2l--Insert
Publicity Section.
Norris Fights Measure

Chicago Tribune Omaha Bee Leased Wire.
Washington, June H.--After radi-
cal members failed in further efforts
to substitute more drastic mea-
sure, the senate today passed the
meat packers control bill substantial
| ly as it came over from the house.
Some amendments were added. how
ever, including the adoption OF the
publicity section Of the senate conf
mittee bill.
The final vote on the passage OF
the bill was IS to Il. Previously the
senate rejected the substitute pro-
posed by Senator Sterling Of South
Dakota by vote of 81 to 50.
The senate also, by vote OF 81 to
34 again rejected the senate COM
mittee bill, which met defeat yester-
day. Charges that attorneys for the
packers had hand in drafting the
house bill were repeated during the
bitter debate which preceded the final
action. Senator's LaFollette OF Wis
consin. Norris of Nebraska and Ken
yon of Iowa flercely assailed the
packers. Senator Smoot of Utah
came to the defense of the packers
and read letter from one of the at
torneys for Wilson & Co. ex-
planning the part played by him in
conferences relative to the framing of
the house bill
Authority Vested in Secretary.
The same forces which supported
the senate committee bill lined up for
the Sterling substitute. The chief
difference in the Sterling bill, from
the senate committee bill, was that
control over the packers was placed
in the hands of the federal trade
commission instead of live stock
commissioner under the Department
of Agriculture. The bill as shaped
vests authority directly in the secre-
tary of agriculture over both packers
and stockyards.
1t is not expected that the differ
ences between the house and senate
bills will prevent a speedy agreement
and that the bin will reach the pres
ident within short time. 1t is the
expectation that President Harding
will sign it, although it is regarded
by many members of congress as
contrary to his slogan of less gov
ernment in busincso."
Non-Edible Products Exempt.
One amendment adopted by the
senate to the house bill over the pro-
tests OF the radical group exempted
the manufacture OF by-products,
which are not edible, from govern
mental supervision. This amend
ment was adopted by vote of SO to
so. Another amendment adopted
struck out horses, mules and goats
from the section defining live stock.
The bill as passed gives the secre-
tary of agriculture jurisdiction oyer
packers, stockyards, commission
men, traders, buyers and sellers in
the yards. The secretary of agricul-
ture is given the power to prevent
them from engaging in unfair, un-
justly discriminatory or deceptive
practices. He is given the power to
regulate and prescribe the practices
in the stock yards and to prescribe
all rates, fees and charges for SER

Little black bear has arrived"
This was the text of a telegram
sent by Mrs. James A. Stillman
from the Woman's hospital, New
York City, to Fred Beauvais, the
half-breed guide in Canada, few
hours after she had given birth to
Guy Stillman, the boy whose parent
age is denied by James A. Stillman,
the banker. ...-
Mrs. Mary Olive Gilligan, a
trained nurse who attended Mrs.
Stillman at the hospital, sent the
telegram, which was dictated by
Mrs. Stillman, she testified today in
the hearing before Referee Daniel J.
Gleason in the Stillman divorce suit.
Apparently counsel for Mrs. Still
man were prepared for the testi-
mony of Mrs. Gilligan. After the
morning session of the hearing they
admitted the telegram had been sent
and offered an explanation.
Explanation Is Given.
The explanation is that in the
summer of 1918, while Mrs Still
man was in Canada, the prospective
birth of child was discussed be-
tween her and her children, Anna
and Buddy Stillman, and Beauvais.
1t was agreed by Mrs. Stillnan and
the children. counsel contends, that
if the child should be a boy,
Beauais would be advised by wire
that little black bear had arrived,
and if it should be girl, the code
called for announcement of the ar
rival of a little white bear.
Mrs. Gilligan was employed in
November. 1918, to act as day nurse
to Mrs. Stillman by DR.. Warren
Hildreth, who attended the bankers
wife in her confinement. The child
was born on November 7, 1918.
"Did Mr.. Stillman cali on his wife
at the hospital?" the witness was
asked.
mot between the tine of her ar
rival and the birth of the child" Mrs.
Gilligan replied. He came for the
first time on November 8. He saw
his wife. but did not ask to see the
baby. He came again on the 9th,
10th and 11th.
Sent Her Flowers.
Mrs. Gilligan testified that Mr..
Stillman sent his wife flowers every
day while she was in the hospital.
When Mrs. Stillman left the hospital
with her baby she went to 270
Park avenue, then the Stillman town
house. Mrs. Gilligan went with her
as nurse and remained until the mid
die of January.
The witness testified that Mr.. Still
man lived at home and saw his wife
and the baby frequently. His con-
duct at home was described by the
witness as normal"
The unfavorable aspect of Mrs.
Gilligan's testimony-particularly
"the little black bear" message
was partly offset in the afternoon
by cross-examination of DR.. Rus
sell, Buffalo osteopath. Attorneys
for Mrs. Stillman and Guy succeed
ed in wringing from DR.. Russell ad-
missions that his memorandum book
contained entries showing that Mr..
Stillman was at "Mondanne," his
Pleasantville On. W estate on jan
uary s and 7 little more than 9
months before Guy was born.

OF Nations s
Debt Urged
President and Cabinet Decide
To Launch Sale of $l0,0OO,.
100000 War Loansxma1|Z
To Allies.
Put Plan Up To Congress
By ARTHUR SEARS HENNING.
Chicago Tribune Omaha Bee Leased Wire.

By ARTHUR SEARS HENNING
Chicago Tribune-O Omaha Bee Leased Wire.
Washington, June ". President
Harding and his cabinet decided to,
day to launch their Plan for the re.
funding of the nations $10,000,000
600 war loans to the allies into def.
mite obligations and for the sale ol
such securities to the American
people.
The first step or the part of the
administration will b, TO ask con-
gross for specific authority to carry
out this plar when it is worked oul
i'll detail by the treasury.
This is one phase OF a vast and
complicated project for the financing
of world war debts. comprising no,
only the $20,000,0O0,000 loans Of the
allied and associated nations to each
other but the $33,000,000,000 German
reparations.
The proposals of the French and
British governments for a mutual
cancellation Of war debts among the
allies have been rejected by the
United States and are considered
definitely shelved.
Allies May Follow.
If the Harding plan for the re-
funding of foreign loans and their
absorption by the people works sue
cessfully. it is believed that similar
course will be adopted by the allies
in dealing with their debts to each
other.
Tie American governments loans
to the allies: .....
To Great Britain, $4,2l0.000,000.
To France, $2,750,000,000.
To Italy, 81 1,625,000,000.
To Belgium, S400.000000 I
To Russia, $190,000,000.
To Jugo Slavia, $100,000.000.
To other allies, $175,O00,000.
Total, $o,450,C00,000
Nearly $l,000000,000 more is now
due from the allies in the interest on
these loans which has not been paid
for two years and will not be paid
for another year at least.
Will increase Interest.
Under the Harding refunding plan
these loans to the allies, which are
now in the form OF per cent ac-
acknowledgements of Indebtedness,
would be refunded into bonds matur-
ing 80 or 40 years hence at higher
rate of interest. The increase in the
rate above S per cent would
be sufficient to yield the additional
amount due to the United States in
defaulted interest
These allied government bonds
then would be placed on the market
by the United States government
from time to time and sold to inves-
tors. The proceeds from the sale
Of bonds to individual investors
would be employed by the govern
nent to retire Liberty bonds.
This proposed treatment of the
defaulted interest differs from the
Houston plan, under which the
amount in arrears would be made
payable in II equal annual install
nents. The Harding plan for treat
nent of the defaulted interest is
likely to meet opposition in con-
gress. particularly on the part of
hose who contemplate employing
the back interest, when paid, to
nance the soldiers bonus. ..
Guarantee Undecided.
Whether the allied bonds, when
old to the people, should be guar
anteed by the United States is an
other question that will come up in
when the authorization bill
5 considered. One suggestion hith-
erto made is that the government
