FARMER M|LKMEN
DEMAND FA|RP PLAY
Association of Producers
Threatens to Make Own Dis
tribution of Product.

Maryland and Virginia farmers
who now are supplying milk to the
residents of the District are prepar-
ing to distribute their own products.
if the present distributors do not
give them fair treatment. This an
nouncement was made today by John
S. Barbour. milk producer, and at
torney for the Maryland Virginia
Milk Producers Association, at the
final hearing before the Lampert
subcommittee. which has for four
months been investigating conditions
surrounding the Washington milk
supply.
1t has been repeatedly stated before
the subcommittee and by members Of
the subcommittee that the testimony
shows the distributors have been
making unwarranted profits, the cost
double what is paid to the farmer
producers. This fact was again en-
phasizcd today by Representative Ell
liot w. Sproul of Illinois, a member
of the Lampert committee.
Sell Mt Less Than Production Cost.
That fourteen hundred farmers are
now selling milk at less than the cost
of production, while their inve s.ment
is five or six times greater than that
approximately 40 to SO per cent profit,
was stated by Attorney Barbour as
one reason why the farmers believe
they should establish their own dis
tributing system.
\. Charles w. .Darr, an attorney rep
resenting some New York state milk
producers who are anxious to supply
the local market, urged the defeat of
the health office bill which the Lam
pert committee is considering on the
ground that it would be unfair to per-
nit one person. such as the health
officer, to draft and promulgate regu-
lations covering the milk business.
Derides Tuberculin Test.
Matthew E. O'Brien, an attorney
representing most of the local dis
tributers, derided the tuberculin test
required by present health Office regu-
the Lampert committee proposes to
write specifically into the law. He
called such a test an economic waste.

COLLINS NOW POPULAR HERO.
Outwits De Valera in Winning
Irish Public Favor.
RY WILLIAM H. BRAYDEN.

By Cable to The Star and Chicago Daily News.
Copyright. 1872.
DUBLIN, March 6.-There was little
difference in size between the Dublin
demonstration Sunday in favor Of the
treaty and De valera's demonstration
on February ~ against 1t. Both had
the same crowds. but the difference
between the two assemblies was
great. People listened patiently to
De Valera, but gave almost no IN
dication Of their own attitude. The
pro-treaty meeting was wildly en-
thusiastic, identified itself with the
speakers and showed a realization of
the advantages gained
Michael Collins is now the popular
hero. He has none Of De Valera's 8
austerity and no trace of dialectical
skill. He is a straight talker and
made an immediate effect with Sun
days meeting. His main line Of
argument was the evidence visible
every day of the departure of British
power from Ireland and the installing
in its place of power commanded by
the Irish people. He carried the crowd
entirely with him when he condemned
De Valera for his opposition to set
ting up a new police force.

Against Lieut.. Com. Berry.

The District Court of Appeals, in an
opinion by Justice Van Orsdel, today
declared that the discharge of Lieut.
Commander George A. Berry. a naval
reserve officer, by tho Secretary of
the Navy, without acceding to the
officers request for a hearing by the
naval retiring board, was illegal. it
affirmed the decision of the District
Supreme Court to this extent, but
ruled that the lower court had gone
too far in directing the Secretary of
the Navy to accord hearing before
a retiring board.
Jurisdlcti0n Limited.
The Secretary of the Navy. 1t is
pointed out, has only limited turis-
diction in the matter of retirement
ore discharge of officers from the
Navy. He is not only without au-
thority, says the court, to exercise
such power until an officer has been
accorded'a hearing before a retiring
board. but he is likewise without au-
thority when such hearing has been
accorded. until the President of the
United States approves the boards

ut is not within the jurisdiction
OF the court" says Justice Van Orsdel,
ito control the . administrative or
executive discretion of the President.
1t VIII be assumed, however, that IL
the President finds the plaintiff is
lncapacited, as found by the medical
board. he Will approve Berry's re-
quest and direct the reference to a
retiring board.
Was Reported Incapacifntcd.
Lieut.. Commander Berry had been
found incapacitated by a medical
board, but was refused a hearing be-
Iore the retiring board by former
Secretary Daniels, and had been
ordered by the bureau of navigation
to proceed to his home and to regard
himself as honorably discharged.

LIMERICK, Ireland, March 6.-Ar-
mored motor cars were patrolling the
streets s;of Limerick today on orders
given by the military authorities to
counter the move Of units of the Irish
republican army from Cork, Tlppe-
rary and Clare, who arrived in the
town yesterday and Communicated

troops declared they intended to up
hold the recent proclamation of the
brigadier of the mid-Limerick repub-
lfcan army refusing to recognize the
provisional government and pledging
allegiance to the republic. and 1t was
feared by the authorities that they In
tended to seize the five police bar
racks here.
The Free State troops were ahead
of the invading units on the scene,
however, and today the former were
standing to, arms in the barracks and
maintaining a close guard.
1t appeared the idea of selling the
barracks had been abandoned by the
invading units. If they, in fact, had
entertained 1t, but the presence of the
two armed forces is regarded with
considerable apprehension as to possi-
BILE developments.

CHICAGO. March 6.-The great

form loyal fraternity pledging
themselves to maintaiu and defend

which may threaten them now or

He pointed out that William and
Mary University, founded in 1893. had
educated four signers Of the Con-
