PACKERS face
FUTURE WITH
ONF|DENCE.
Thomas e. Wilson Declares
Largest Industry Is Gradually
Returning to Normal.
BY international News Service.

Iutefn8tlOu0I NEWS Service.
The largest industry in the United
States--slaughtering and meat pack.
ing-faces the future confidently and
believes that all business may find a
good omen in that fact, Thomas z.
| Wilson, president Of the Institute Of
An. rican Meat Packers, declared In
statement issued today. 49,
"A good augury for business in gen
eral," Wilson said, ''inheres In the
fact that the nations greatest
industry after two years Of severe
trials and grievous losses, is finally
and definitely emerging into stable
conditions and settling into a strong
position"
Wilson said that the packing in
dustry had finished the year 1921 with
a normal production and that this
production has not been crammed into
warehouses, but has passed freely into
trade channels and thence into con.
sumption"
Await Adjustment.
For further expansion. Wilson said,
the packing industry. like all others,
awaits to some extent an adjustment
of the general economic situation Of
the world. -
Declaring that the situation exist
ing abroad is naturally influencing
| conditions in this country, Wilson
/ said these four basic problems, In.
volving the whole world. will greatly
influence what the United states
may expect from abroad:
1. Reasonable adjustment Of the
German reparations.
2. Adjustment of national debts
over a period Of time sufficient TO
give the European countries an OBJ
portunity to work out.
8. The stopping In many OF the
central European countries OF print.
ing of paper money that Is not
backed by gold or in some other
substantial manner.
4. The adjustment of foreign ex-
change.
IT believe that the first thought
all over the world" Wilson said, "ts
the crystalizing of these fundament-
ais, and am hopeful that some
plans tending to the solution Of some
or all Of these may develop out OF
the present disarmament conference
in Washington"
| Meat Industry Normal.
| Production in the meat industry
during 1921 was Of normal dimen-
sions, comparing favorably in guam
tity with annual production before the
war. Wilson stated. Packing house
values. after tremendous declines, are
now apparently staDiIized.. The de-
mand has shown a good volume at the
bargain wholesale prices for meats
which have prevailed most OF the
year.
Although the figures for the year
indicate a normal annual production
and storage figures indicate this pro-
duction entered trade, sales OF the in
dustry during 1921 show a far greater
decrease in money volume than In
quantity, due to the fact, Wilson DE-
clared. that the products were moved
at lower values. Citing an example,
Wilson called attention to the fact
that at the end of the period beef car
casses were selling at or below the
leverage price prevailing in 1914. !,

Realistic Diamonds
Of Chips and Dust

New York, April ga process of
creating diamonds by fusing a mass
of diamond dust and chips into large
artificial stones that only an expert
can distinguish from the natural gem,
is the recent discovery of a German
chemist named Van Bolton, described
in May Popular Science Monthly.
The chips and diamond dust, for
merly used only to polish other gems,
are put in little carbon crucible and
mixed with a chemical or a combina-
ton of chemicals that release mercury
vapors when heated. This crucible is
heated in an electric furnace, where it
remains for weeks, and sometimes for
months. During this time the mer-
curry percolates through the diamond
dust and is said to cement the par
ticles together.

NO DECISION ON
TRIAL OF MINERS

Charleston, w. Va, April pa
Whether % men, including officers and
members of the United Mine Workers
of America, would be tried here on a
charge of treason, depended on the de.
cision of Judge J. NJ. Woods, who to-
day heard arguments on a demurrer
of the defendants and motion to
quash the Indictment. Two grounds
were alleged by defense counsel for
calling the indictment. Two grounds
were alleged by defense counsel FOR
calling the Indictment on the treason
charge faulty and much of today's
proceedings in the cases of the men
against whom this and other charges
have been brought because of the
march and fighting in Boone and Lo-
gan counties last August was taken
up with arguments on these points
Judge Woods took the demurrer un-
der advisement when he adjourned
court.
The prosecution when asked which
of the Is indictments it elected to cry
tlrst, announced choice of the treason
charge. The defense immediat ely
gave notice of its demurrer.
T. c. Townsend, of defense counsel
advanced the argument that the trea-
son Indictment should have contained
the word "feloniusly" and that its
language was too general.
The answering argument for the
state was made by A. M. Belcher, of
Charleston, associated with the prose-
cution counsel. Treason, he said, was
a distinct crime, and was o"more than
a felony He read from indictments
and opinions in other cases, including
the Friends tax rebellion case in
Pennsylvania in 1899 as bearing on
this point and also cited provisions for
ccntiscation of property as removing
treason from the felony class on the
1asis Of punishment infected.

MORGAN MAY JOIN
IN GERMAN LOAN

New York, April 24.-J. P. Nor.
gan today announced his acceptance
of the allied reparations commissions
invitation to become member Of the
committee which will consider fota
ton of an international loan icr Ger
many. He will sail for Europe about
the middle of May.
Mr.. Morgan indicated that the pro-
posal loan to Germany would be q
popular loan to which the people OF
the United States and other allied
countries would be asked to subscribe
With good terms and on good secur-
ity, he said, he believed such loan
could be placed.
America, of course, is very i'm.
portant in this foreign loan situation, u
he said. "The question / am asked is
whether, if so, on what terms Ger
man loan can be placed in this coun-
try.
81 think l can be useful and l am
going over about the middle of May
personal matters preventing me from
sailing before that time"
Mr.. Morgan said he would cable his
formal acceptance of the invitation
tonight.
Mr.. Morgan declined to estimate
what amount of German bonds could
be sold in the American market. He
expressed the hope that, if the terms
were satisfactory, conditions for such
Il loan were excellent at this time.
Asked whether he thought the loan
would clear away the chief obstacles
to Europe's rehabilitation, he said:
"Now you are getting into politics. E"
"My interest in the situation" he
explained, "is merely to advise what
the United States can do to help out
the loan plan"

RUSSIAN TANGLE

Genoa, April "a (By the Associat
ed Press) new twist i'm the
Russian tangle again causes disquiet-
ude in conference circles Seemingly
the Russian delegates have developed
new set of proposals. 1t is under
stood that at the meeting of the ex-
perts on the Russian question this
afternoon the soviet delegates argued
for the complete wiping out Of the
war debts and also relinquishment of
all arrears on interest on pre-war
debts. simultaneously they asked for
assurances that the powers would
grant loans sufficient to enable Rus
sia to reorganiZe her national life.
AS the soviet had previously given
the allies to understand that seal
ing down of the war debts would be
accepted the demand of the delegates
for a protocol cancelling these debts
caused great surprise to the represen-
tativeS of the powers, who reported
TO the chiefs of their respective dele
cations that the trend of todays
meeting with the Bolsheviki Indicated
the possibility of insuperable diff
culties in coming to some arrange
ments with the soviet.
The Russian request for extensive
loans caused dissatisfaction because
it is recognized that it would be cx
tremely difficult to guarantee credits

LABELS MUST GIVE
TRUE DESCRIPTION

Washington, April 24.-I.abels OF
brands under which articles are sold
when open to construction in the
mind of the purchasing public that
they describe the competent ingre.
dients or materials used in the manu-,
facture of the articles, must clearly
and definitely describe them, the su-
preme court today held, in an opin-
ion delivered by Justice Brandies in
case brought by the federal trade
commission against the Winsted
Hosiery company of Connecticut. JUS
tice McReynolds dissented.
The opinion of the court, while
confined to the particular Issues pre-
sented, will, it is stated, have ma
terial effect in broadening the puris-
diction of the federal trade comr,s-
sion in such trade practices. Chair
man Gaskill of the commission de-
scribed the decision as gIeat vic.
tory.

pany for many years had manufac
tured underwear for the retail trad
bearing the brands natural merino," )"
gray WOOL" natural WOOL "natur-
al worsted," or ~Australiah WOOL"
Justice Brandies declared 'none of
this underwear is all wool" but
"much of it contains only small per.
centage of wool; some as Hight as 10
per cent" q
In this connection, he said that
while the Winsted company labels,
particularly that bearing the word
"merino," have long been used in the
trade, "the court could not aecept the
contention that they are Generally
understood as indicating goods partly
of cotton. A
He declared it "unsound, Asserting
that the labels in question care lit
orally false" and except those which
bear the word "merino" ara 'spalpably

Justice Brandeis added, :.and do in

labels and brands "part of the public
is misled into selling or into buying
as all wool underwear which in fact is
in large part cotton" he added, "de-
claring that the practice tended to aid
and encourage the representations of
nscrupulous retailers, and their
statesmen, who knowingly sell to their
customers as all wool underwear
which is largely composed of cotton. u
when misbranded goods attract
customers by means of the fraud
which they perpetuate, trade is di
verted from the producer of truthful
ly marked goods" the justice said
and the fact that honest manufac-
turers might protect their trade by
also resorting to deceptive labels" is
no defense for such practices,
