Indulgences Cannot He Sold to Law lkrcaker?* Prnm TF- |V*!???*? ?'01 BSBBSaa P .reo-. WASHINGTON, pr ? Pvi. 'ente of the purpose or th? 1 and the farm bloc to tike an ac? tive part in legislative t. mental affairs was presented to-tin, when Senator La T .vl'ette, in ? Il the .Senate, ci.ticized the pr.., r of t?-?? Armour and Morris pack nterests. He urged the adoption of hi* reiolu tion for a full report on the proposed ? r from the Secretary of Agricul? ture and a report on what business I? il. ne by each of the big packers and ndependents and what action, if any he S ?'tary has taken or contem? plated t ing In reference to It. Not only did the Senate, after th? sneech. adopt the resolution without u mil call end without dissent, but Sena? tor L? Follette, supported by Senators Owen and Norris,. both of the progres? sive bloc, declared that in forty-eight hours he would introduce a b... to re? store to the Federal'Trade Commission 'le powers of investigation u'? pirij??."- Irrtnatr- -?-"?-ved by the pack | its and ?tocky?rds act. Curt) urn 11.?., Sais Owen Senator Owen declared it was high .?me the Federa! government "read, out it? strong arm to curb th< trust," and Senator Norris pointe?! out that the wings of the Federal Trad Commission, so far as investigating the packers was concerned, were clipped by the packers and stockyards act. He also held that the commission's power.? should b.? restored. Belief in many quarters Is that th? proposed merger Is likely to be halted by to-day's Senate developments. Senator Is Fol'rtte assailed high government officials for their course an ' demanded to know why the great peeking houses are "frankly Bargain? ing with government officials for per? mission to do an unlawful act." He referred to newapaper articles .(noting a "White House ?pokesmnn** ?? ?aylng the President "feels there ia no legal obstacle preventing one packer from buying out another, Inaamuch as the packing industry is slready under Federal control." Makea Flat Contradiction Taking square issue with this and commending the matter to the atten? tion of the farm bloc and other ?Sena tors who believe the packers and stockyards act would give th? govern ment more complete control of the "packers' combine," Senator Lu Follette said this act did not authorize or jus? tify the merger. He said: "It seems that this act, so far from being the means of more efficiently curbing these trusts, is to be made the excuse and reason for letting them proceed with their unlawful combina? tions and conspiracies. It is not true that the packers an 1 stockyards act contains anything uuthorizing or jus? tifying this merger. On the contrary, it prohibits it in the plainest possible language. "Why are the great packing house frankly bargaining with .?ovcrnment (ifflriii's for permission to ?< an un? lawful aet? The answer is that the great packers are in financial di' Acuities. Seca Increased Prices "These mergers simply mean more fees and commissions for the in? siders; more watered stock; more bonds?and eventually more overhead, the carrying charges of which must eventually be paid by the public in increased prices. "Under what law does the President or the Secretary of Agriculture give to the packers an opinion in advunce that their action will be legal or illegal? "If this proposed merger had any legal basis it would not be necessary to avoid all investigation of the sub? ject and take it up with the President. He cannot, of course, conduct any In? vestigation at all, but he can effectually restrain the Department of Justice and through that department the various district attorneys from taking any ac? tion In the premises, and he can pre vent his Secretary of Agriculture from filing a complaint against the combina? tion either after it is organized or to prevent Ita organisation. "The least we can do is to adopt this resolution, o thnt we may know and tne people of the country may know some? thing as to the effect this proposed merger would have upon the meat paek ir.g industry and what steps, If any. official! of the government are tsking to maintain and enforce the lawe which have been passed to protect the pub lie from the unlawful practices of the meat nackTs." _ Visitor, 65, Holds Up S-aloon; Forgets It After Nap in Cell A b?nt little man with whit whiskers walked with a firm at?
