THE EEE: OMAHA, THURSDAY, JANUARY 16, 1S19. IIEflEY TELLS OF OBSTACLES MET UJ MEATIUQUIRY Declares Food Administration Was Packed With "Dollar-a-Day Men" by Swift & Company. Washington. Tan. IS. Francis J Heney of San Francisco, who was chief counsel for the federal trade commission in its investigation of the meat packing industry, told the senate agricultural committee today that Swift tnd company "had pack ed" the food administration with "dollar-a-year men" who received large salaries from the company at the time they were serving the gov ernment. Mr. Heney, who was appearing in support of the Kcndrick bill for government regulation of the meat industry, said "Food Administrator Hoover sought to stop him from making public letters criticising re tention by the administration of VV. F. Priebe while the latter still was in the employ of Swift and company. Mr. Hoover, according to the wit ness, appealed to President Wilson, saying that publication of the letters was a hindrance to the food conser vation campaign. Mr. Heney said he was recalled from Chicago where he was working in the commission's investigation of the packers and found on his arrival, here that the president had advised the commis sion that "he had no instructions to offer, but hoped that a head-on col lision would be avoided." Received Salary From Swift. The witness said Mr. Priebe had charge of fixing poultry prices for the food . administration and that while so acting he received a regular salary from Swift and company with a percentage of the income of Priebe and company. This company, Mr. Heney said, was owned by Swift and company. Mr. Heney told the committee that other employes of Swift and company who received salaries from the company while working with the food administration were E. O. Heyl who had charge of fixing prices on canned goods; N. B. Col lins and F. S. Brooks. Heyl later resigned under fire, Heney said. Collins and Heyl, he asserted, re ceived $10,000 a year from the com pany. Swift and company's profits year before Jast were $47,000,000, "if you believe the books," said Mr, Heney. This compared with $6,500,000 a year during the three pre-war years according to the witness. Gift Made to Mann. ' Mr1. Heney dwelt upon letters written by Henry Veeder, counsel to Swift and company, telling of sending fancy steaks and a horse to Representative Mann of Illinois, republican leader of the house. The witness said Mr.. Mann aided the packers in their fight against the Borland resolution for a congres sional investigation. . - . , Mr. Heney declared that the . siatemenis in in report on me ica cral trade commission, submitted to President Wilson by the Chamber of Commerce of the United States, ''were without foundation and abso lutely contrary to facts." Dominate Finances in Chicago. Mr. Heney declared danger lay in close connection between the packing industry and the, financial interests of the country. In Chi cago, he said, through bank stock owned by affiliated interests, the packers "come pretty close to domi nating the financial situation." In order to control the purchase of sup plies, he added, the packers own stock in practically every new hotel built in the country. Asked by Senator Kenyon of Iowa as to whether the packers' con trol did not also extend to public utilities, Mr. Heney replied that in Sioux City, la., they not only con trolled the stock yards, but the street railway and other public util ities, while in Kansas City the Armours controlled the street car system. The practice of extending their contro to these interests, he said, was principally practiced by the Armour, Swift and Morris com panies.

Basis of Representation In Peace Conference Fixed By Allied Powers' Council Each Delegation to Act as Avail Itself of Panel System; Decision Reached to Make Public Results of Deliberations in Joint Communique. Paris, Jan. 15. Hitherto it has been the practice of the govern ments taking part in the prelimi nary peace conversations says a statement given out by the official press bureau today, to issue sep arate communiques regarding the proceedings. From todajr it has been decided to issue a joint com munique. Following is the English text of today's communique and American delegations: "The president of the United States and the prime ministers and foreign ministers of the allied pow ers, assisted by the Japanese am bassadors in Paris and London, held two meetings today. In the course of these meetings the examination cf. the rules of the conference has been continued and almost com pleted. "It was decided that the United States, the British empire, France, Italy and Japan should be repre sented by five delegates apiece. The British dominions and India, besides, shall be represented as fol lows: "Two ablegates respectively from Australia, Canada, South Africa, and India, including the native states, and one delegate from New Zea land. OMAHA POLICE ME DEMAND FOR MORE PAY (Continued From Pag One.) holding out to the policemen hopes of getting these high' salaries." Detectives Van Dusen and Mc Donald represented the policemen. They stated that the passage of their schedule of salaries by the legislature will add about $107,000 annually to the salaries of Omaha policemen. This is some $40,000 more than would be added by the schedule of salaries proposed by' Commissioner Ringer and endorsed by the council. s Increase Out of Proportion. . "We'd like to do this," said Com missioner Ure. "but if we added any such sum to the budget, we wouldn't be able to look the taxpayers in the face. Besides, we are now at the peak of high prices. If we were to give such big increases they would be out of all proportion to wages in other lines. Especially is this true when you remember that policemen have the pension fund and after 21 years service they can retire on half pay. That is a consideration." .Chief of Police Eberstein said the men ought to have the increase ask ed because they are "delivering the good$." It was suggested that the demands be made the maximum and be paid only to No. 1 men in each class, others to be paid less at the discre tion of the chief. . Chief Eberstein mentioned the Ford Motor company's $6 a day minimum of $150 a month. "But those men," said Mr. Zim- man, nave to keep up a strain ot hard work all day that is almost un endurable. Men have told me so who worked in the Ford plant." Detective VanJDusen stated that it costs $147.85 to outfit a policeman with his two uniforms, two over coats, shoes, club, revolver, etc. He has to pay for all this. I he only thing that keeps us on he job," said Van Dusen, "is look ing forward to the old age pension. Sometimes we work for -days and nights at , a stretch without sleep or rest. ' It's a thankless job, a dog's life. A policeman gets only knocks and abuse." Chief Eberstein said he would rather cut down the number of men on the force and have well-paid, satisfied men than to have the pres ent number Jf unsatisfied men. The case was referred to Ringer. Van Dusen and Chief Eberstein to try to reach an agreement on a sal ary schedule. They will report to the council this morning. New York Senators Asked to Support Suffrage Bill Albany, N. Y. Jan. 15. The New York assembly today, without op position, adopted the resolution which would request the state's rep resentatives in the United States senate to vote and work for the pas sage of the federal suffrage amend ment.

Ceath to Mexican Leaders Proclaimed by Bolsheviki El Paso, Tex., Jan. 15. A hand bill printed in Spanish and signed "Mexican bolshevists" was dis tributed here today urging death of President Carranza, Villa, Felix Diaz, Esteban Cantu, governor of Lower California; Dr." Vasquez Gomez, Francisco de la Barra and all other political leaders and rich men in Mexico. All:-; mv FCILM-FIT 23 CENTS EACH OTP Unit and Each Nation May "Brazil will have three delegates, Belgium, China, Greece, Poland, Portugal, the Czecho-Slovak repub lie, Roumania, and Serbia will have two delegates apiece; Siamondel, and Cuba, Guatemala, Haiti, Hon duras, Liberia, Nicaragua, and Pan ania one delegate apiece. "Montenegro will have one dele gate, but the rules concerning the designation of this delegate shall not be fixed until the moment when the political situation in this country shall have been cleared up. "The meeting adopted the follow ing two general principles: une tacn delegation being a unit, the number of delegates form ing it shall have no influencetupon its status at the conference. "Two In the selection of its dele gation each nation may avail itself of the panel system. This will en able each state at discretion to en trust its interests to such persons as it may designate. "The adoption of the panel sys tem will in particular enable the British empire to admit among its five delegates representatives of the dominions, including Newfoundland, wheh has no "separate representa tion, and of India." Armour & Company's Net Income for Year Exceeds $15,000,000 Chicago, Jan. 15.--Armour and company's annual report .issued to day showed a record volume of $861,000,000 for the'.. fiscal year, of 1918, compared Kith; $575,000,000 in 1917, and net incJ5me"of $15,247,837. 53. The report declared that not withstanding record high prices for the company's products and a rec ord volume, record low profits were produced. The net income represented a re turn of 14.7 per cent on common stock after making provision for dividends on preferred stock. With the exception of $2,000,000 paid in dividends to common stockholders, the balance was reinvested in the business. The net profits represented a re turn of 9 per cent on the averaee net capital invested in all lines, but the income from , the meat food business limited' by the govern ment to 9 per cent fell to about half that rate. The net profit on total volume limited to 2.5 per cent was only 1.9 cents on each dollar of sales. "We are helpless in the matter of reducing prices," said J. Ogden Ar mour, head Of tht concern, in the statement. "They are high- because of the- heights to which live stock and labor have gone. Our labor costs last year were $20,000,000 more than the preceding year. The same number of pounds of live stock cost us in 1918 $100,000,000 more than in 1917." ' The income account showed $26, 128,610.62, after deducting all " ex penses for operation, taxes, etc. In terest on Donas ana Dorrowea money aggregated $15,459,837.53, which with a pension fund contri bution of $212,000, -left net profits of $15,247,837.53.

HEED MILLIONS - FORSTARVIIIGTO CIIECICAIIAROIIY (Continued From Face One.) since the armistice have been con sumed without regard to previous restrictions. Rhineland Propaganda. Paris and some other places with high prices which Americans and es pecially American soldiers on short leave with three months pay are willing to meet, draw large amounts of food which the local communities can ill afford to spare. In the Rhineland it appears to be a systematic method of progaganda for the inhabitants not only to ex hibit the utmost friendly relations to American soldiers but to supply them with abundant food at initial prices. Notwithstanding the imoression thus created there, representatives ot the associated countries are con vinced that the actual conditions are as I have described. Moved by proofs of these facts submitted to him, President Wilson, on January 1, cabled to the secre tary of the treasury urging an ap propriation by congress of SIOO.OOO,' 000 to be used on behalf of the United States in carrying on this work. The precise use of this appro priation seems not to nave Deen un derstood. Money to Come Back. It is not intended as a gift. The amount is to be expended largely, if not entirely in purchase in the Uni ted Mates and a great part, if not all, the money will be returned. It will be returned, moreover, with in terest, with the gratitude of the stricken peoples of Europe who. to day are looking to us more than to any other nation for aid and succor. America stands forth as one na tion which has maintained war with out hope of gain or thought of re ward, i She is the embodiment of demo cratic idealism. Here is the great privilege of .. binding up the wounds of little peoples over whom the: great military juggernaut of Prus sia rolled with relentless cruelty. Hunger leads men to despair and to desperation. No lasting peace can be made by starving nations.; We must first, feed and then help to restore the unhappy nations of eastern Europe to their normal self-supporting status. Will Bring Returns. There is no stronger ally of bolshevism than starvation. Food, work and the prospect of normal social conditions are its oroohvlactic One hundred million dollars wisely expended now in alleviating" the hunger of- European- peoples will bring returns of incalculable great er worth. ; This is less than the cost of a single day of war. America has been the leader in the movement. Great Britain, 'France and Italy freely concede to her a leadership in carrying on the work. But if America fails to provide her share of the cost how cart 'she expect others, burdened as they are with the. cost of two and .a-. half, years more of warfare, fhen tocarry their part of the load, Surely; if the condi tions are understood congress will not hesitate to act favorably. It is merely- a question of carrying out an obviously just and necessary plan. - Conditions Are Urgent. "It underlies and,, precedes all other questions, as to terms of peace. There can be no peace in Europe if its hunger is not satisfied. There can be no league with starving na tions, that will secure the future welfare of the world. Anarchy and bolshevism are the natural sequence of famine, disease and despair. The conditions are urgent. They may not wait. We must act prompt ly or it will be too late. The ques tion is not partisian. It rises above all party considerations. America must this day choose be tween a high duty "and an ignoble refusal.' Surely the conclusions of a body of men, such as those com posing the supreme council, endors ed by the president of the United States, by the prime ministers of Great Britain and France is suffi cient warrant to call for the prompt appropriation of the money asked. Art Collector Dies. New York, Jan. 15. Henry Duven, widely kndwn art dealer, who aided in bringing together some of the best collections in the United States, died here today. '. ' Nine Killed and 50 1 Injured by Explosion of Tank of Molasses Boston, Jan. 15. Nine persons were killed and 50 injured by the explosion of a huge tank of malasses on the water front off Commercial street near Kcany square, today, Early tonight, the only "bodies that could be identified . were those of a fireman and two residents of tenements in the vicinity.; A large number of- the injured were taken to the Relief hospital. The tank was owned by the Purity Distilling company, a subsidiary of the United States Industrial Alcohol company, with a plant in Cambridge. A dull, muffled roar -gave but an instant's warning before the top of the tank was blown info the air. The circular wall broke -into two great segments of &heet iron which were impelled in opposite direc tions. Two million gallons of mo lasses rushed in a mighty stream over the streets and converted into a sticky mass the wreckage of sev eral small buildings which had been smashed by the force of the ex plosion. Harry F Dolan, attorney for the Purity Distilling company, said to night that officers of the company assumed that the tank was broken by something which acted upon it from the outside. "It is possible the tank may have been broken by enemies of the Unit ed States who knew that we were engaged during the war in the man ufacture of alcohol which was used in the making of munitions," he said. Princess Charlotte New Duchess of Luxemburg Paris, Jan. 15. The government of Luxemburg in an official note to day informed the French govern ment of the succession to the throne of Princess Charlotte Adelgonde in place of Grand Duchess Marie Ade laide, who has abdicated.

Just a few applications will prove a reve lation if your hair is fading, streaked or gray. Mixing the Sage Tea and Sulphur recipe at home, though, is troublesome. An easier way is to get a bottle of Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound at any drug store all ready for use. This is the old-time recipe improved by the addition of other ingredients. While wispy, -ray, faded hair is not sinful, we all desire to retain our youthful appearance and attrac tiveness. By darkening your hair with Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound, no one can tell, because it does it so naturally, so evenly. You just dampen a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at a time; by morning all gray hairs have disappeared, and, after another application or two, your hair be comes beautifully dark, glossy, soft and luxuriant.
