were shown to be practically unlim-
ited, 1t was stated, and their ability
to engineer the proposition will not
be questioned when the details of
the proposal are made public, the

WASHINGTON, Nov. 16.- Under leadership of the war department representatives of American schools colleges and organizations dealing with the mental and physical better mcnt of the race went into confer, ence here today in the hope that a systematic method of developing young Americans to better citizen ship could be evolved.

GRANGE VOICES
 OPPOSITION TO
 PACKER MERGER
Members of Executive Body Declares Tariff Favors
 Interests of Farmer

WICHITA, Kan, Nov. 16.-Opposi tion of the National Grange to the pro posed merger of the Armour and Morris Packing Companies was voiced here tonight by T. c. Atkeson, Wash ington, D. c. legal representative of the National Grange and member of of the executive committee.
 the history of the grange has been one of opposition to monopoly in any form. We believe that as there is an in crease in monopoly, there must be a likewise increase in government con trol or ownership. For the more the people give up protective competition they merely are giving up their only means of protection" MT. Atkeson said. Merging for greater efficiency and to give the common people better prices is all rot he declared
 Mir. Atkeson made his report before the session, of the work done during the past year by the national office in Washington. He felt that the inter eSts of agriculture received much con sideration and that the farmer had been fortunate in the matter of the tariff
 Recognizing the fact that protec- tion was the fixed policy of the pres ent administration, I consistently did what I could to uphold the established grange doctrine that whatever the pre- vailing tariff policy might be. agricul- ture should receive fair and equitable ever we may thnk of the present tariff law, l feel quite sure that our effort has settled for all time that agricul ture will not be overlooked in making up future tariff schedules.
