Francis J. Heney, of San Francisco, who was chief counsel for the Jederal trade commission In its Investigation of the five big- packing: concerns, also was a witness before the senate committee.

Agalaat GaYeraaaent Interrcntlom William Maglvtny, president of the Bt.

W. Taliaferre, vice president and general- manager of the Detroit packing firm of Hammond, Standish and Company, testifying before the senate committee, said that while 'he was opposed to government ownership, he believed that it would be better than an, attempt by the government to regulate packing houses and stock yards.

Deny Increased Prolta. Denying that profits of packing concerns had increased under the licensing system; Mr. Taliaferro said his company's profits for 1918 were only about 22 per cent, on the capital stock, where as in 1917 it was around 88 per cent Avar fiat Cora i'rnm Vrlv" James S. Agar, president of the John Agar Chicago, testified before the house committee that he never has been discriminated against by the large packers and that he not infrequently was able to apply successfully to the larger packers for refrigerator cars. He urged that these cars be left lit the hands of their present owners.

Mr. Henri in his testimony charged that the "big: -five" packers "have throttled the packing Industry throughout the country to build an artificial monopoly at Chicago, where prices are fixed for the entire country." The witness also said the packers were interested in securing representation on the council of the National Defense, "because it wast expected that committees would be formed for purchasing food supplies." Correspondence from the packers file he added, shows that there were many ways in which they expected to benefit from th activities of the council. Joseph Taggart, former representative from Kansas, denied before the Senate committee today that while a member of Congress he was favorable to the packers in legislative action, as was indicated by testimonies offered recently by Mr. Henri. He said he had supported the norland resolution for investigation of the packing Industry.

Hoover "had insulted evoy republican citizen" by advising the American people to support the democratic party in the last congressional campaign and that lie would offer aa amendment to the bll requiring: that the fund be administered by a commission named by the President "With the advice and consent of the Senate." The Pennsylvania Senator offered an amendment requiring that the relief fund be used to purchase supplies In the L'nlted States. Senator Martin criticised this proposal, "as a profiteering; stipulation on a charitable 5 fund," and Mr. Penrose finally modified it to read that wheat to be (lvbn free to the people of Europe should be purchased in this count try as far as possible. The amend went then wan adopted. Another amendment offered by Senator Ashurst of Arizona, democrat, would give every soldier, sailor and marine a bonus of six months pay and his unifron.
