The Congress finally agreed to ap point a committee to meet a delega tion after the plenary session, -when suddenly thirty workmen and several women forced their way to the Speak er's stand and the session again was thrown into a tumult. The spokes man of the invaders demanded the right to present resolutions demand ing that all authority be vested in the soldiers' and workmen's councils. Pandemonium Follows. The chairman warned that speakers were not permitted, while shouts came from the floor that'the invaders be re moved. 'General pandemonium fol lowed, but the chairman finally re stored order by compromising with the invaders and permitting them to present their resolution. The invad ers then left the hall. They are be lieved to have been members of the Spartacus group who are on strike. The successive periods of disorder called for some criticism by some of the delegates from outside of Ber lin. The atmosphere of the Congress is electric and it is difricult to pre dict what the next tweclve hours may p~rodluce. Ta~kes Serious View.

It accuses the Extreme Left of aiming to disrupt the congress. "It must be declared openly," says the newspaper, "that there is danger of the whole government apparatus crumbling and the armistice and peace negotiations being broken off, on the ground that no competent German government exists and that all Ger many will be occupied by - Entente troops." Freiheet, on the contrary, declares the invasion of the congress could be explained by the indignation of the soldiers and the counter revo lutionary activities by the officers of certain troops. The demonstration by the soldiers was so in accord with the utterances of Ledebaur, Barth and other radicals at Tuesday's session as to suggest more than a coincidence.

Now two-thirds of the consuming centers, with, millions of people, are one to two thousand miles away from the principal live-stock produc ing sections, which are sparsely settled. The American meat packing industry of today is the development of the best way to perform a national service. The function of providing meat had to de velop accordingly. Those men who first grasp ed the elements of the changing problem created the best facilities to meet it-large packing plants and branch houses at strategic points, refrigerating equipment (including cars), car routes, trained organization, profitable outlets for former waste - which became the nat ural, inevitable channels for the vast flow of meat across the country. If there were a better way to perform this necessary service, American ingenuity and enterprise would have discovered it, and others would now be using it. During 1918, Swift & Company has earned a profit on meats (and meat by-products) of less than 23 / cents per dollar of sales-too small a profit to have any appreciable effect on prices.
