COMPLAINT FILED BY STOCl<MEN
AND WOOL GROWERS.

Exchanges at Chicago. Kansas City,
Omaha, st. Paul and Portland and all
commission men mrket agencies at
these exchanges and individual COM
mission firms at Fcrt Worth are al .
legged to maintain unjust, unreasonable
and discriminatory rates for purchase
and sale Of live stock. in charges filed
with the packers and stock yards adj
ministration. according to statement
issued at Washington by Secretary CT
Agriculture Wallace.
The charges, the statement said,
were filed by the American National
Live Stock association, the National
Wool Growers association, and Is
state live stock associations. The de-
PENDANTS have been given until Sep
tember I, the statement said. to file
an answer or to SATISFY the complaints
The producers organisations making
the complain charge the live stock
commission rates are approximately
100 per cent higher than those prevail
ing on these markets in 1905, that they
are discriminatory in that a greater
average of per car charge is imposed
and collected on shipments Of certain
classes of light weight live stock than
is imposed on heavier animals where
a smaller number is loaded in car.
The complaints also point out that in
assessing charges. no distinction Is
made as to the value CT the individual
animals. or the gross per car value Of
animals selling at low price as COM
pared with those selling at high price.
Further. they complain that charges
for the sale Of mixed live stock in car
lots and fer the sale Of unmixed or
mixed live stock are unjust. unreal
sonable and discriminatory.
'The complaining associations ask,
on behalf of all shippers Of live stock
to the markets mentioned. for an
award Of damages against the defend
ants by the amount Of commits sion
charges collected over and above what
may be determined by the secretary
OF agriculture to be reasonable and
just reparaticn to date from the time
these agencies became registrant UNI
der the act.
"The producers organizations also
have directed attention to the alleged
general belief Of stockmen that the
live stock commission business is over
done. that there are too many men
engaged in 1t and that because Of the
large number gaining a livelihood
from it. an unfair. unjust and unreal
sonable burden is imposed upon the
shippers Of live stock"

heroine, Dame Nature as sort of fairy
woman, and magic adventures and trans
formations, all of which serve to teach les
sons of hygiene and good health. 1t is
