SENATOR ASKS PROBE IN GIANT FOOO COMBINE Baking Powder Merger !s Declared Menace to Farmers. BY GEORGE SANFORD HOLMES Times Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON, June 25.—Pending the return of congress, when he plans to bring the matter to the attention of the senate, Senator William H. King (Dem., Utah), has asked the attorney-general for an opinion on the legality of the proposed J P. Morgan & Cos. merger of food interests. Published reports were to the effect that the combination of nationally known firms engaged in handling food products would include the Fleischman Company, the Royal Baking Pow-der Company and E. W. Gillett Company, Ltd., of Canada “This may be a combination in restraint of trade,” said Senator King, "and I am asking AttorneyGeneral William Mitchell for a legal opinion on its validity. I have not forgotten that an attempt was made not so long ago to organize a bread trust. Here is a deal involving half a billion dollars and huge concerns engaged in handling food products. “I am not at all sure that advantage can not be taken of the terms of the new farm relief bill, with its half billion fund for the stabilization of agriculture, particularly as that fund affects wheat. Mergers of this great size, dealing in food necessities, arouse natural suspicion, and it seems to me are inimical to free competition and the interests of the public. “Congress not now being in session, I am making formal request for the department of justice to investigate every phase of the proposed combine and render an official opinion on its validity, especially as related to the Sherman anti-trust act.” BACK BROKEN; LIVES Tennessean Clings to Life for Three j Y'ears After Death Prophecy.

Not So Much Rheumatic Agony in U. S. A. low So Hook Drug Cos, Claims “If you keep on selling your wonderful medicine for rheumatic pains and swellings in our town, there won't be any sufferers left,” said a druggist the other day.
That’s the good news that came to the Allenru Laboratories the other day and there’s a whole lot of truth in it. Yet in spite of the fact that Allenru is a supremely good remedy for rheumatic fever and inflammation there are still millions of people, crippled and suffering untold agony who continue to fool around with makeshifts and relievers just because no one ever told them about *wift acting Allenru. So if you who happen to be reading this notice right now, will clip it out and send it to some rheumatic sufferer today you will be doing him a real favor.

JAILBIRDS WITH MONEY THRONG FRENCHPRISONS Gendarmes Are Kept Busy Sending Millionaires to Ceils. BY RICHARD P. MMILLAN United Press Staff Correspondent PARIS. June 25.—The United States may have its Sinclair case, but France has been busily occupied during the past few months in jailing many of her millionaires. The affair started in the ranks of bankers. There was an epidemic of suspicious, failures in business, and investigations led to many interesting disclosures regarding the transactions of many notable men in the world of finance, and likewise led to prison for the individuals concerned. The latest recruit among the moneyed jailbirds is painted as a much more sinister figure than any of the others, however, since his financial transactions are alleged to have involved the violent deaths of at least two people. The man, declared to be the most remarkable character to have appeared in a French criminal trial since the days of Landru, is 33-year-old Charles Barataud, being tried at the Assizes at Limoges, in southwestern France. Every day when he is conveyed from jail to the courthouse he is surrounded by a squadron of cavalry to beat back the angry mob, clamoring for the head of the youthful millionaire. Barataud is accused of having

murdered the driver of a taxicab for the sake of his money and to have later shot dead a youthful friend who knew Barataud’s secret. It is alleged also that he planned the murder of two other persons who, however, suspected his intentions and were able to overcome him when they kept the rendezvous he had made with them in the woods near Limoges. The weak point in the prosecution’s case is to show cause why Earataud. the son of a millionaire and himself ranking as having a like amount of wealth, should kill a taxidriver. unless he had been overcome by mania All kinds of legends have been woven around Barataud by the local people. He was credited with the.

declaration that he would never be brought to trial. Twice he was found in his cell with knife wound,- and nearly died both times. Another time a warden found a SSO bill carefully rolled inside a packet of cigarets which had been brought him. This case recalls that of another millionaire and aristocrat, the Comte de Rojac, who a few months ago received sentence of seven years imprisonment for the murder of his son born to the family servant girl. There was an outcry- then because it was claimed that the family’s money had saved the noble youth’s head from the guillotine.
