AMERICAN CONTROL OF PACKING BUSINESS FEARED BY BRITAIN

(By Associated Press) LONDON, Jan. 18 Apprehensions of a world-wide meat control by American packing: (inns were disclosed in a recent report to the board of trade by a sab-committee of the standing; committee on trusts. "At present, the American meat companies have nearly 60 per cent of the beef output from Argentina and Uruguay and about 75 per cent of th-s capacity of the meat plants built or building in Brazil", the report stated. "Moreover, they control nearly onehalf of the whole trade of Smithfield (the great London meat market) and they have also a solid footing in Canada and Australia. "Fears as to the extension of their activities are not confined to the United Kingdom, but are equally strong in the dominions," it continues. Influence British Consumer "The more they may be able to extend their operations in South America, the more they may be able to divert supplies from reaching the United Kingdom; and the more they are able to control distributive business here, the more securely they will have the British consumer in their grip." Suggestions were made, by the com'mittee to restrain, by taxation and by subsidizing refrigerated shipping companies, the expenslon of foreign interests here and an international investigation was recommended to go into the whole situation with a view to taking common action. A rejoinder to the committee's findings is made by It. H. Cabell, the London manager of Armour and company, who in an interview with a press association representative, complains that none of the American firms were heard by the committee and charges that the latter's report was compiled "under strong prejudice". Cabell Makes Protest "Several passages in the report show a clear but very ill-formed animus against the American firms," Cabell states. "Particularly in its reference to Argentina. No one would gness from the report that the Chicago packers entered the Argentine trade at the request, alsomt at the entreaties of the British firms which had opened up the territory and had paid heavily for their experience and were anxious to be bought out." Mr. Cabell suggests that part of the supposed animus disclosed in the report is due to the reluctance of certain British firms to compete with the "less wasteful and more efficient methods of their American rivals", and he says the only effect of the report must be to raise meat prices all over the United Kingdom.

The Theatres

WASHINGTON Thunnan, the Great, the Mystic and Crystal Gazer who comes to the Washington theatre Wednesday doe3 not lay claim to super-natural powerp nor avow big demonstrations to be other than what we individually choose to believe them to be. His extraordinary telepathic powers have been many times subjected to the severest tests by the most eminent members of the medical and scientific profession. Thunnan, the great, and his company of Mystics offer a wonderful performance. Thunnan, the great will answer and read any written question sealed in your own envelope. He will read the thought suggested by another. He will tell your full name and age without asking questions. He tells you of lost articles, missing friends or relatives, o rstolen automobiles. He puts the scientists in a maze, the skeptics in a daze. He startles and his uncanny achievements make the relatives, or stolen automobile. He

pierces the mystery of the soul and divines your Innermost thoughts and desires. No matter what you wish to know, ask him; he knows. MURRETTE Steve Perkins had a bright idea. He would borrow Percy Jones wife. The inspiration back of this happy thought waa caused by the fact that In order for Steve to acquire his inheritance he had to be either forty-four or married, and Steve was neither. So the plot was hatched and Winnie Jones introduced to Steve's Aunt Sarah, the guardian of the family treasury, as Mrs. Stephen Perkins. So far, so good. In fact. It was Immense but Aunt Sarah took a great liking to Winnie, and dragged her and her "hubby" off to a little cottage in the country. Of course Percy Jones had to -trail along; he wasn't going to let his new bride out of his sight if he knew it. Then, to make matters even more interesting, it develops that living right next door was Major Whitman and his daughter Ruth, the latter being the young lady that Steve was violently in love with. Aunt Sarah thinks she cuspects an "affair" between Percy Jones and Winnie; in fact, she is sure of it, and she makes up her mind and when Aunt Sarah's mind is made up goodnight! The more Auntie tries to sraighten out matters, the more mixed up things become, until at the end the only way out is to tell the truth. The above is a faint idea of .Owen Moore's latest Selznick Picture, "The Chicken in the Case," which opens at the Murrette Theatre Wednesday. PALACE Picture enthusiasts who see "The Sagebrusher," Benjamin B. Hampton's second Great Authors production from Emerson Hough's famous novel, at the Palace Theatre, will be treated to something that appeals to their romantic appetite, In a brace of charming love stories in the W. W. HodkinFon special release, played by a widely differing quartet of lovers. Big, athletic, polished Dr. Barnes, played by Roy Stewart, presents no more contrasts to that quaint, bashful original son of the Montana soil, Wid Gardner, as portrayed between the two girls. Mary Warren, the character portrayed by beautiful Marguerite De La Motte,' la delicate, sensitive, high bred, educated-and brunette. Annie Squires is a golden-beaded tartar, courageous end outspoken, whose character is wonderfully well delineated by Betty Brice.. . And in addition to those two love stories, there is a pathetic one that is

the basis of the most wonderful emotional situation in fiction or drama; the love of a man for a woman who js his wife in name only, love that is hopeless bat pure, and in the end worth dying for that of Emerson Hough's immortal character, Sim Gage, played by Noah Beery.
