Supreme Court its opposition to the
vacating of the consent decree by

tice 10 divorce the meat industry from
all unallied activities.
The association contends that the
packers waived a hearing and trial
and consented to the decree in Feb
are bound by it's terms and may not
now attack its validity. The decree
should be looked on as a binding
business contract says the associa-
ton. between the packers and the
Government, and cannot he set aside
without the consent of all parties
thereto.
Justice Hoehling will hear the mo-
tion next Monday of the Department
of Justice to strike out certain para
graphs of the petition of the Califor-
MIA Cooperative Canneries, which,
through Attorney Frank J. Hogan, Is
seeking to set aside the decree in
which it is joined by the Swift and
Armour group of the packers. The
Government claims certain para
graphs of the petition are "imperti-
nent and scandalous" and should be
stricken from the record. After that
motion is disposed of the United States

date will be set for the hearing on
the question of setting aside the con-
sent decree

Special Dispatch to The Star
NEW YORK, January IA man
who had been dumb for years spoke
before group of physicians and
medical students at the Vanderbilt
clinic, Tenth avenue and SIxtieth
street
He had no larynx, it having been
removed long ago in an operation to
cure cancer, yet he uttered perfect
speech.
1t was the first demonstration in
this city of the man made larynx pro-
duced by science after is years of ex-
periments.
When the patient was brought in
efforts to speak brought no sound ex-
cept a signing. An intake pad con-
nected with a small rubber tube was
placed over the aperture in his throat.
He placed the tube in his mouth and
began a conversation, in which his
voice differed from a normal one only
in that it was in monotone and slight
ly cultural.
The device consists of a pad fast
ened over the orifice in the neck
through which the patient breathes,
and a sound box about the size of a
pipe near the end of the rubber tube.
which is held in the mouth. The sound
box contains the artificial larynx,
which stimulates the vocal cords. Air
is forced from the lungs through the
tube and into the sound box, where it
Is set into vibration and the yibra-
tfons carried through the tube into
the speakers mouth. There the words
are formed. The throat orifice is sur
gically prepared by bringing the up
per end OF the windpipe forward into
the wound.
