to have the consent decree declared
void as tending to deprive them of
their rights without due process of
law. In resisting that plea, the Gov
ernment, accodring to the packers,
made certain allegations that the
packers had violated law or laws in
their operations and that the consent
decree was the result of those viola
tions. 1t was the clearing up of the
record in this respect that the pack
ers demanded most.
Nevertheless, the suspension of the
decree, in so far as the California can
ners are concerned, probably will re-
suit in the entry of California canned
goods into Southern markets in COM

the parties at issue, according to
their representatives here.

ton to secure the decree, were keenIv
disappointed. The representative of

Packers Are Pleased.
The representatives of Swift G. Co.

1eit that, although the decision sus-
pended the operation of the decree
only so far as the California Gamers
We're concerned, it had served to clean
their records of implication of wrong
doing cast on them by the Govern
ment and of the implication that the
consent decree had been signed as a
result of low violation.
Producers of butter, eggs and
poultry felt distinctly easier in their
minds, for, although poultry and
dairy products We're excepted from
the operation of the consent decree,
the Federal Trade Commission has
submitted report recommending
that the large packers be divorced
from ownership or operation of re-
frigerator cars. Dairy and poultry
men have been worried as to who
would transport, store or distribute
their products if the recommendation
were complied with.
Packers Little Worried.
There is little reason to doubt the
statement of the packers that they
are little exercised as to whether they
engage in the marketing of canned
goods or not. The whole business
grew out of the desire to use re-
frigerator cars TO their utmost ca
pacity. Carcasses of beef and mutton
in the cars hang from rails along the
roof and there is considerable space

that the best way to utilize this space

Method Quite General.

The packers had space in their cool
ers for the raw products and place
in their warehouses for the finished
goods. These methods of operation
became fairly general and enabled
some of the packers to sell such can
ned products at prices which were
far from pleasing to some of the
large grocers in various sections.
Considerable controversy resulted and
In 1920 the packers entered an agree
ment with the Government, known as
the consent decree, by which they
agreed not to manufacture products
not derivatives of meat, with the ey-

and some few other food articles.

For few moments muskets blaz-

(By the Associated Press)


Washington, April 20.--President
Coolidge, in an address of welcome
here tonight before the annual con-
vention of the Daughters Of the
American Revolution, expressed the
view that the only way to avoid the
constant interposition of the gov
eminent into practically all the af-
fairs of the people," is for them ito
adopt correct course of action. to
provide the proper standards of
conduct by their own motion"
Commenting members of the or
ganization for their efforts ito raise
the civic ideal. to make better
citizens. to resist evil influences, to
cast out corruption-in short. to lift
up the average of American life to
the full level of it's highest aspira-
tions." the President continued:
1T is my belief that In the pur-
suit of these purposes and the taking
of these actions you are putting the
ideals of the revolutionary period I'M
to practical effect. 1t is important
to note that the efforts which you
are making. the duties which you
are performing, are not being
sought through the interposition Of
organized government. They are the
voluntary acts of our citizens taken
through their own initiative. In
adopting this course of action you
are in the best sense of the term
ministering to the ideal of self-goy-
eminent.
I'VE have heard in the past. and
are likely to hear in the future, very
much discussion about the intrusion
of the government through legisla-
ton into the business and private
affairs of the people. Insofar az this
Is reflection of an ideal, requiring
and demanding higher standard of

That 1t is not wholly successful, we
ought to remember that it is at best
but temporary makeshift, an effort
to make things better, and that we
cannot expect Though these me-
theds to attain perfection.

civilization with it's broad privilege
of the franchise, with its representa-
tive legislative bodies, to avoid the
