HIGH PRICE OF

SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. Is
Shortage Of beef cattle is blamed
by western cattlemen for the fact
that beef is higher to the consumer
than at any time since the war.
Roy Hagen, secretary manager of
the Western Cattlemen's Associ-
alton, a cattlemen's coop" told
members of the National Livestock
Association, assembled here in con-
vention, that there are fewer beef
cattle in the United States by Is
per cent than in 1925.
Beef prices are high because this
country is undergoing a beef-cattle
shortage" Hagen said. In 1921
came the postwar slump in prices
due to overproduction. Hundreds
Of big cattIemen went broke. Herds
were curtailed. In 1925 there we're
100000 head of beef cattle in the
United States; now there are about
100000. We are on a net import
basis. and import beef from Can
ada and even Mexico"
Hagen denied that Americans are
eating less beef than formerly. The
vegetarian fad. he said, reached its
peak five years ago. Eventually, as
rural population shrinks and cities
grow more crowded, less beef will
be eaten. This, however. is a mat
ter to worry about 200 years hence.

Thomas Leach won only 81 YER

In behalf of Leach, a, street car
conductor, it was shown "a little
satchel' which he carried from
home each morning, and which
figured in testimony, contained his
lunch.
Lights in the basement of the
Leach home were also cited as
suspicious" His counsel remarked:
IF every mans home that had a

TESTIFY IN TRIAL
OF NORTHCOTT
Asked to Identity Bits Of

Death Ranch.
Bp united Press

BB United Press
RIVERSIDE. Cal, Jan. l4.--Gor-
don Stewart Northcott. on trial for
the murder of three young boys,
faced the parents. of two of his as
serted victims today, when the state
began its attempt to prove that he
beat Lewis and Nelson Winslow to
death with an AK.
Mr.. and Mrs. N H. Winslow of
Pomona were asked to identify bits
of clothing found on Northcott's
Wineville chicken ranch as that
once worn by their sons.
The father already has told prose
cution that he recognized pieces OF
the clothing.
The state then was to introduce
letters, supposedly written by Lewis
and Nelson, advising their parents
that they were 'adventuring in
Mexico"
The prosecution is attempting to
prove that Northcott wrote the let
tiers in an effort to divert the search
after killing the boys to silence tEem
regarding mistreatment to which
they assertedly were subject by him.
The court was to move to the
Northcott ranch during the day and
there the state was to attempt to
link bits of bone, blood clots and
clothing to the death of the boys.
The bodies have not been found and
the state must show that murder
was committed.
