ASK CREATION Of
NATIONAL STOCK
AND MEAT BOARD
Plan Group of II in Scheme
Which American Live
stock Association AC-
CeptS.

Colorado Springs, Col, Jan. IL.
A proposal to create a national
livestock and meat board, a CO.
operative organization made up
of all producers, packers, COM
mission men and retailers, TO rem
edy conditions in all branches of
the livestock industry and in
crease the consumers demand for
meat products, was unanimously
adopted by the American National
Livestock association convention in
session here this afternoon. The
plan for a board consisting of II
members. eleven of them repre-
senting the producing end of the
industry, was first drafted in
Chicago, December 2, in response
to the widespread realization of
the necessity for cooperation in
an education and marketing pro-
gram. r. L. Burke, of the Amer
lean National Livestock association
was chairman and the other men,
bers of the committee were w.
J. Carmichael, secretary of the
National Swine Growers associa-
ton; A. Sykes of the Corn Belt
Meat Producers association; A. c.
Williams of the Texas and South
western Cattle association, and
Thomas +. Wilson and f. Edison
White of tn American Institute of
Meat Packers.
Mr.. Burke presented the propo-
sition to the meeting today. Mr..
Wilson. president of the American
Institute of Meat Packers, and
member of the committee, also
was present at todays session and
spoke favorably of the plan. urg-
ing the necessity for adopting ii.
"The interests of the producer
and OF the packer are so mutually
dependent. one as the producer of
raw material, and the other as the
professor and distributor of your
products, that harmonious CO.
operation IS essential to the con-
tinued development of the in
dustry," Mr.. Wilson said.
whether our failure to cooper
ate fully in the past has been the
fault of the packer or of the
producer, or, what Is probably
more likely, the error of both, 1t
Is unnecessary to discuss. /

ton rendered me and the gratifi-
cation ! feel as the manifestation
of a mutual desire to enter upon
a new era of closer cooperation
for the general welfare of the
entire industry"

returned in Michigan, the senate
adopted n resolution directing an
investigation into the primary and
general election Hearings were
begun and continued intermitten-
tly until near the time of the
supreme court decision. There
followed a lapse of several months
during which the Newberry case
was heard of in the senate only
occasionally until Senator Spencer,
republican, Missouri, as chairman
of the subcommittee which con-
Quoted the inquiry submitted to
the senate September 90, 1921,
report which although condemn
ing the expenditures during the
campaign and which it estimated
at $4,000, found no legal or
iusticable grounds for the re-
tircment of Mr.. Newberry by the
senate.
Democratic members Of the
committee, headed by Senator
Pomerene of Ohio, filed q minor
ity statement, asserting with equal
emphasis that the testimony given
the committee proved conclusively
that Mr.. Newherry was guilty Of
the many charges laid against
him by Mr.. Ford.
For many days then and by
many senators, a heated fight was
waged against the republican
resolution declaring Mr.. Newberry
the duly elected senator from
Michigan. Democratic opponents
of the resolution finally brought
in a resolution of their own deny
ing the seat either to Mr.. New
berry or to Mr.. Ford. The fight
went on in all of it's bitterness
until after half a dozen attempts,
Mr.. Spencer got a unanimous CON
sent agreement of senators to
limit debate and the case was thus
brought to a vote.

ACT OF FRENCH PRE-
M!ER NOT TO MODIFY
CONFERENCE RESULTS
Continued from page One ,

arranged that the Washington con-
ference and his policy toward 1t
should be the occasion for vote
Of confidence. This vote took
place four DAYS before the sched-
uled sailing of M, BRAND and the
sentiment of even strenuous OBJ
ponents Of the prime minister was
that he could not be denied a vote
of confidence on that feature.
The frank talk in the Hobbies in
the chamber OF deputies was said
to be that it was necessary for
France to draw closer to the Unit
cd States in order to strengthen
her in cooperation with England
and against Germany,
1t was believed that M. BRAND
could bring this about and that any
combination OF political groups
against him ought to be delayed
until he could show success or
failure at the conference, He was
able to return TO Paris, having pro
duced a favorable effect. az It was
said, by his speech on the necessity
OF France maintaining a large
navy He had a favorable French
press and both the senate and the
chamber of deputies gave him
votes Of confidence on Decem
Der 6.
NJ. Viviani was also able to indi-
cate a success in the four power
Pacific treaty. Then , came the
French naval proposals and espe-
cially the question OF submarines
Their reaction on the American
press, members OF the French dele
cation affirm, was such as to dam
age greatly French prestige in
America and to draw closer togeth-
err Great Britain and the United
States. The disapproval in Amer
lea, 1t was said tonight. was quick
~ reflected in the French press
and was used as showing the fail
ure of the French governments
policy for closer understanding
with America. 1t was averred also
tonight that Lloyd George had
made prompt use of what was talk
en- to be drawing together of the
United States and Great Britain to
impress upon NJ. BRAND that he
need look for no support on this
side of the ocean and that he must
make terms with the British gov
eminent, Consequently it was
thought by some observers here
that what was taking place in
Washington had a direct relation
in both weakening the BRAND
cabinet and in being n motive for
Lloyd Georges memorandum on
the subject of reparations and sub
marines.
This memorandum was publish
ed in England and Immediately re-
published In France without the
public or parliament having had
detailed information of the nego-
tiations between NJ. BRAND and
LLOYD George at Cannes.
M. Poineare, who has ac-
cepted tentatively the work
of organizing a cabinet, Is re-
garded here as representing what
might be called a forward policy
against Germany in the strict en-
forcement of the Versailles treaty
although he is one of the severest
critics of that treaty. His opposi-
ton is that the treaty does not go
Tar enough in STRENGTHENING
France against the possibility of
aggression from Germany. He ia
vored the annexation of the lefs
bank of the Rhine when the peace
was made and he has since advo-
Gated the occupation of the Ruhr
coal fields as a penalty for Ger
man non-payment Of reparatlons
installments.

The operation OF railway repair
shops always has been regarded as
matter of policy within the dis
erection of the management. II a
company can save money by oper-
ating its own shops it should do so,
and by the same reasoning if money
can be saved by letting out the
work, that should be done. The
railroads are maintained primarily
to give service to the public, and
the public is entitled to have them
operated upon level of costs cor
responding to what the public pays
and receives for like labors and SER
vices. Continuity of service and
merit in service may we'll be recog-
nized, but compensation should be
based upon the value of services
rendered. Any other system would
make railroad employees favored
class, at the expense, not of the rail-
road companies, but of the public,
including millions of people who
have less pay than the railroad men.
We have a letter from Mont
gomery, Ala, in which the writer
says:
"The producers sre forced to sell beef for
from Ia to ) cents per pound and hides
for from ! TO cents and the consumers
pay from Is to 40 cents per pound for
steak and from So to SIS per pair for
shoes. The same is true of all other prod.
ucts. The negro porters on railway trains
get salary of from 500 to 5000 per month
for eight hours Of easy work day; while
the farm laborers work from 10 to IA hours
a day in the dew and cold and receive a
salary of from So to SIS per month, and
Something is radically wrong and fear
the result will not be good for our country"
The prospect is for a cessation OF
coal-mining when existing contracts
expire on April LIST The pay for
mining coal is so far above what
if was before the war that the price
of coal is one of the most serious
obstacles to the general reduction
of living costs and the revival of
industry. The increased cost OF
coal and increased cost of trans
portation are causing more unem-
ployment and more hardship in this
country than any other two infu-
ences that can be named. No pre-
dictions can be ventured as to when
industry will be running full time
SO long as it labors under such
handicaps.
Agricultural Conditions
Conditions in the agricultural Sec
tons are far from inspiring, but in
the cotton country the feeling is
little better. The final government
estimate upon the cotton crop is
8,340,000 bales, which compares
with the October estimate of
6,537,000 bales, an increase that
might have been expected to play
smash with the market. The ex.
planation given for this extraor-
binary revision is that the Depart
ment of Agriculture was crippled in
the bureau OF estimates by reduc.
ton of its force OF investigators,
and was misled as to the acreage
planted in cotton. The ginnings
proved the inaccuracy OF the Oc-
tober estimate, and the conclusion
seems to be forced that the acreage
c"rtH''ront was much less than

I'm an industrial forecast for 1922
it is necessary to consider the
causes of the depression, chief
among which is the unbalanced re-
lationship between the prices OF
farm and other primary products on
the one hand, and the prices OF
manufactured goods, transportation
service and various other products
and services on the other hand.
The final estimates of the Depart
ment of Agriculture upon the 1921
crops give them a market value to
the farmers $8,000,000,000 below the
value of the crop of 1918 and
$3,400,000,000 below the value Of the
crop of 1920. These are figures OF
great significance. The farmers
have produced nearly as much in
quantity, but it has been valued in
the exchanges at less than one-half
the figures of 1919. AS other prod
ucts and services have not declined
in like degree, the farmers must buy
much less, and all the industries are
suffering in consequence.
1t is useless to expect return to
normal conditions while this dis
parity of compensation between
great bodies Of producers exist. 1t
is unfair and it establishes an
effective biockage against revival
of business. 1t is time that the BUSH
ness community took cognizance OF
the situation, and set itself to the
task of correcting il. The argument
that stock on hand was purchased
at higher prices has lost whatever
force it ever had. Merchants who
are interested in the return of pros
perity should do their part for it,
and one of their duties is to reduce
operating costs.
In large part the situation is
chargeable to the action of organ
lied labor in clinging to the war
time wage rates. Raw materials
and foodstuffs have had a great de-
cline at wholesale, but between the
wholesale markets and consumers
the cost of handling and manufac-
turing has not declined in like pro-
portions. The effect is to obstruct
the distribution of goods and throw
millions of wage-earuers out of en-
ployment, at the same time keeping
up the cost of living on the entire
wage-earning population. In the
aggregate there is no gain, but a
great loss, to the wage-earners as a
class.
Railroad Wages
The railroad companies are
STRUGGLING with a difficult situation.
and although their efforts are in the
1blic interest they have little help
tom the public. Railroad WAGES

an exoneration OF myself and all
concerned"
His announcement definitely an.
swered statements made during
the closing hours Of debate that
Mr.. Newberry did not approve OF
the resolution in its final form. His
supporters had held that the con-
domination Of the use of excessive
sums of money, appended to the
original resolution, merely restated
what the majority of the investi-
eating committee had written in its
report, and what Senator NewberrT
himself had said. Democrats and
republican opponents, however,
contended that it placed the Mich
igan senator under a cloud and
there were insistent demands thai
he be voted out or in" on a clear
cut issue.
The text Of the resolution by
which Mr.. Newberry's title to hia
seat was cleared and which dis
missed the charges made and the
contest filed against him by Henry
orr IOllOWS.
The senate's final vote came
upon the following resolution
amended by Senator Spencer, re-
publican, Missouri, to declare Mr.
Newberry entitled" to his seat and
substituting the Willis amendment
for the original clause which de.
clared the charges against Mr.
Newherry were not sustained.
"(One)-That the contest o.
Henry Ford against Truman New

"(Two)--That Truman IT. New
berry is hereby declared to be a
duly elected senator from the state
Of Michigan for the term of six
wears commencing on the fourth
day Of March, 1919, and is entitled
TO hold his seat in the senate of
the United states.

amount expended IN this (Michi-
GAM primary was $195,000 as was
fully reported or openly acknowl-
edged, or whether there were some
few thousand dollars in excess. the
case too large, much larger than
ought to have been extended. The
expenditure Of such excessive sums
in behalf of a candidate either
with or without his knowledge and
consent being contrary to sound
public policy, harmful to the honor

gerous to the perpetuity of a free
government, such excessive ex-
penditures are hereby severely
