Senators Open Investigation
Of Meat Spoi|oge Charges

definite rationing recess, Senator
Thomas said:
Packers and slaughterers have
been compelled to remove surplus
meat from storage facilities in order
to provide space for new supplies,
with the result that large quantities
OF such fmeat products have been
destroyed or allowed to spoil"
Senator Thomas introduced a
resolution asking the Senate to in
dorse an indefinite rationing recess
after War Food Administration and
Office of Price Administration Off
cials had contended such a recess
would result in a maldistribution of
supplies and had denied that a
real meat surplus exists in the
light of prospective heavy future
demands.
Il am hopeful" Senator Thomas
wrote in letter to Chairman Muir
dock of the subcommittee, that
these hearings will produce factual
information regarding the ham
ding of meat and that from such
facts we can determine whether
Cd a meat holiday should be de-
clared now, or (2) whether it might
be advisable in the event of an
other similar crisis in the future
and 60 whether any need for cor
rectlve legislation exists"

War through 1918 and in 1895
claimed Wake Island for the United

a Marine Corps lieutenant in the
Spanish American War. and his
grandson, 1t. Joseph K. Taussig, jr.
all of whom were present at the

only father -and-son combination
holding the Navy Cross.
Miss Ellen M. Taussig of Phila-
delphia, granddaughter Of the
real admiral. sponsored the warship
which was designed primarily for
action against the Japanese in the
Pacific.

Senator Van Nuys was the spon-
sor in the Senate of the contro-

Is pending before the Judiciary
Committee. He also advocated
Federal legislation to outlaw the

In addition to his post as chair
man Of the Judiciary Committee
Senator Van Nuys at the time of his
death also was a member of the

Governor, Henry F. Schricker
doubtlessly will appoint a Democrat
to serve out the year remaining OF

passion for democracy"
He said American troops "are fac

for the numerous refugees who keep
slipping through the Germans and

After Advance 10
New 7-Year Peak
BY VICTOR EUBANK,
Associated presk rjnsnnisl Writ,

NEW YORK, Dec. s.-The stock
market today ran into a little in
vestment skepticism engendered by
the Thursday advance to q new
average peak since 1887.
While scattered issues managed to
make modest headway from the
start. sufficient offerings developed
to stall numerous leaders and, near
the fourth hour, trends were indef-
mite. Dealings slackened well under
those of the day before. Price varia-
tions mostly were in minor fractions.
A revival OF caution seemingly was
based on the idea that the list had
been on the gaining side for five
successive sessions in four of which
volume exceeded the million share
figure. This performance, chartists
thought, might call for a good tech
nical reaction. Bullish contingents,
however, still were impressed by
long-war psychology, dividends and
earnings.
Registering tops for 1914 or longer
were Westinghouse, Great Northern
and Loew's. Resistant were Ameri-
can Telephone, Goodrich, Sears
Roebuck, Kennecott, International
Harvester and Douglas Aircraft.
Laggards included United States
Steel. Bethlehem, New York Central,
Southern Pacific. Chrysler, Ana
conda, General Electric and Johns
Manville.
Bonds were steady.
Tnting forward in the curb were
Solar Aircraft. Diana Stores, Pitts
