wv re residents of Indianapolis who
w haven't already met Ma ShurZa
DumbbeH hanging over the
back fence, are hereby introduced to
her.
She is one of the very few human
beings who have managed to live
without brains.
She is so fond of grand opera that
she thinks the Singer building is a
concert hall. And she'll openly boast
that she has personally met Charlotte
Russo, the movie actress.
Ma is just like Pa Whooza Dumb
bell in one way-they're both dumb.
She thinks
That a percolator is a baby car

That an encyclopedia is a vehicle
to ride upon.
That a scandal is a shoe.

expressed at the Near Eastern peace

The more optimistic Of the con-

Ieved that rejection of the treaty

Demand for Men in Offices in
Violation of Constitution,
President Says.

CHICAGO, Nov. 23.-Swift & Co.
announced today that they have
formally declined to permit the De-
partment of Agriculture to place au-
iitors permanently in their office,
with power to examine at all times
their books, papers and other docu-
ments.
The company takes the position
that if the Government has the
power to do this, 1t has the power
to do the same thing in all other
business offices of the country,
which would amount to Government
surveillance over citizens engaged
in all lawful enterprises.
The company also holds that such
men after having had these privi-
leges of examination would be. OF
such value to competitors that they
might be hired away from the Gov
eminent for the trade secrets which
they had learned.
The company declares its Constitu-
tional rights are being invaded ana
that the packers and Stockyards act,
under which the demand was made,
provides full authority to investigate
specific, cases Of unfair and discrimi-
natory practices, but 1t does not give
authority to interfere in absence Of
specific charges.
I'VE claim on behalf Of our $4,000
shareholders" L. F. Swift, president
of the company, said, "the right
which the Constitution guarantees
to all citizens of being permitted, in
the absence of specific charges, to
conduct our business peacefully with
out Interference from Government
agents.
If the government has power
tc maintain accountants permanent
~ in our office, as it claims, the
Government would also have the
power to establish such account
ants permanently in all business
offices in the country. situation
which we believe Is unthinkable.
.'The proposed inquiry is not
founded upon any complaint or
charges of any violation Of law,
but is for the purpose of securing
complete detailed information as
tC all business of the company.
Such a sweeping inquiry must be
considered an attempt to seize pow
er reserved to the several States
under the commerce clause OF the
Constitution of the United States.
Until the court decides the act
to be as broad in its scope as the
notice served upon us, Swift q Co.
must decline to comply"

BY international News Service.

President Coolidge was given an
optimistic report yesterday on bust
ness conditions throughout Europe
by S. w. Straus, New York financier.
Straus, who has just returned from
abroad, also told the President that
while he did not believe the United
States could escape its eventual
moral responsibility as a world
stabilizer," he did not believe the
present a propitious time to par
ticipate in the European situation,
owing to the widely varied points
of view existing among the differ
ent continental countries.
Reporting on conditions in this
country, the New York banker told
the President that there is today a
potential need for $4,000, 900 900
worth Of new buildings, notwith-
standing that building operations
this year are Is per cent ahead of
Last year." Straus declared 1.-THE
nations new volume of business
was $4,000, 000, 900. This year it
will be $4,000, 900 900, SO It would
require fully year and a half of
