PACKERS FIGHT
ORDERS

The final effort of the big
packing groups to modify the
packers consent decree of Febru-
ary 27, 1920 to meet the chang
ing conditions of merchandising
began today before Justice Jen-
ningS Bailey in the Supreme
Court of the District of Columbia.

Under the packers consent de-
cree Swift, Armour. Morris and
three other packer groups were
to 'ithdraw from all industries
not related to meat packing by
last November.
Attorney Frank j. Hogan, coun-
sci for the Swift group, filed a

order after certain extensions of
time had been granted.
Arguments on the new motion
were heard by Justice Wendell
P: Stafford in Equity Court, and
while he had them under ad

PEAK REACHED
BY POSTAL
SAVINGS
By JOHN E. NEvIN, JR.

Growth of the postal savings
system in the United States for
the year ended June was the
greatest that has ever occurred,
Postmaster General Brown de-
clared today.
Despite the legal Limitations
which are placed upon the saw
ings system, restricting the
amount one may place in a
postal account to $4,000, deposits
increased more than 10 per cent.
The increase in dollars was set
by the Postmaster General at
16,341,0 900, making the total de-
posits on hand on July l, $751;,
9Ol ,652.
Postal savings systems, the
head of the department declared,
are the refuge of the timid," ;"
and are "Salvaging institution. "
He cited a number of examples
in which he pointed out the fact
that the institution was collecting
dollars which timid persons would
have ordinarily hidden in theit
trunks, attiCS or buried.
Mr.. Brown asked for an in
crease in the amount which may
be carried by each Individual
depositor. He cited the fact that
the low rate of interest paid by
the Government owned and oper-
ated institution was lower than
the banks on savings. The
amount paid by the postal saw
ings system is per cent.
Postmaster G eral Brown
added:
Il am firmly convinced that
If bankers will make q thor
Ough study of the operation of
the system and become familiar
with the cooperative attitude
of its administration, they will
appreciate. as do. that the
system was created for the
common good, and is being
operated in the interests of the
thrifty, the banks. and the gen.
business of the nation"

lumbia Bankers Association will
entrain at 6 p. m. tonight on

ton will open on Thursday.

WHEAT LOAN|NG
STOPPED

The Federal Farm Board will
close out all wheat loans on
June 80. accepting either cash or
wheat in payment, Chairman
Alexander Legge declared yes
terday.
In localities where the market
price of wheat is above the $1.18
loan price. he said, the CO.
operatives probably will sell and
pay the board in cash, retaining
the surplus.
Where the market price is be-
low the $1.18 level, however, the
board will probably have to &C.
cept the grain. The board will
sustain no ultimate loss, however
as it can hold the grain for
higher market, he said.
Chairman Legge declared that
the board positively will accept no
speculative grain in payment of
these loans. but will demand farm
grain. The board will take pains
to see that market operators. with
mixed grades in storage. do not
dump inferior wheat on the board
in the guise of farm grain, he
added.
Present wheat market condi-
tionS, Legge added, are encourag-
ing, and the future prospects are
for a rise rather than a drop.
Winter wheat CroDS in Kansas are
slipping in some sections and
every indication is that the crop
there will be we'll under the guam
tity that has been expected. Other
sections also are showing poor
quantity production, he added.
The Washington times., 1930-06-03

face the fact that the decision
brings no encouragement to
those of us who have hoped
the commission might bring
some relief from the unfair
freight burden which agriculture
is now bearing.
Commission Has Power
"The commission still has
power in the grain case and
other major cases now pending
to do a measure of justice. The
resolution did not provide, and
congress did not intend, that
any unlawful rates should be
fixed for farm products or any
rates that would be unfair to
the railroads.
But recognizing the farm
problem, Congress intended that
farm freightS should be placed
at the lower limit of the SO-calIed
zone of reasOnabIeneSS. The
courts decision does not destroy
the power of the commission to
do that.
in this connection say
again that / regard as indefen-
sible the attitude of the rail-
roads in hampering the effort
to bring a fair adjustment of
the freight burden and to re-
lieve agriculture from the gross
unfairness which resulted from
flat horizontal rate increases
during and after Federal control
of railroads"

Service, Incl

The day when Scent crude oil
will replace gasoline for the auto
mobile, and ignition systems will
he done away with, may not be
lar distant.
These economies were accom-
plished recently by a Diesel en-.
CINE in two test cars, C. L. Cum
Minis, of Columbus, Ind. told the
Society of Automotive Engineers
at French Lick, Ind.
From the first ponderous Diesel
engines used almost entirely as
stationary power plants, research
has developed a motor so light
that it has been applied success
fully to airplanes. Europeans al
ready use the Diesel in trucks
and busses. A little more perfec.
ton should bring it into the auto
