ASKS TIME LIMIT ON COLD STORAGE ! McKellar Says It Will Prevent Hoarding for Outrageous Prices MANY FOODSTUFFS ARE HELD TOO LONG | Present Practices Are a Menace to Public Health, Says Senator. r< i i Washington.?Federal regulation < f cold storage of food was urged in the senate by Senator McKellar, Democrat, of Tennessee, as a certain means of reducing the cost of living and as the only remedy for "the most outrageous piece of profiteering that can be imagined." Speaking in support of his bill, first introduced in 1913 and now reintroduced before the senate interstate commerce sub-committee considering high cost of living recommendations of President "Wilson, Senator McKcllar said if the bill had been passed in 1913 he felt sure the present conditions as to excessive living cost would not exist. The meat packers were charged by the Tennessee senator with using cold storage facilities to fix food prices. "It is being used by the packers," he said, "for the purpose of controlling prices. As used by the packers it preserves in seasons of plenty and permits them to withhold such large quantities of foodstuffs from the market as to make a season of scarcity at any time they see fit and thus they increase the price to the consuming public." Explaining- his bill, Senator McKellar said it wouud limit the time foods could be held in cold storage and has been vigorously opposed by the packers. "Heretofore ft have been unable to get any action on this bill," said Mr. I MI I AT ISATVRDA I We will s I ris, S. C., Sati I years old; mo! : I are the hest g | I breds.

My bill does not fetter cold storage in any way but it regulates it so that the people can get the very best benefits out of it." Cites Statistics. Citing recent statistics of the fcdeial trade commission of food held in storage, Senator McKellar said they showed vast increases over the amounts stored last year. He compared retail prices, secured from the manager of the senate restaurant, showing large increases in price despite the increased supplies in storage. "Some middlemen," said Mr. McKellar, "is making G6 2-3 per cent profit on eggs alone. The only possible way in which these prices can be manipulated is through the medium of cold storage. Put a limit on the time in which these goods can be held and the packers will be compelled to sell."

"They are in the hands of the most gigantic mo- ; nopoly there is in the world," he said "The price the packers pay and the price at which they kell is out of all pioportion and they never will come down until eggs are stamped and regulated." Present cold storage practices also j arc a menace to public health, Senator McKellar declared, asserting that meat and poultry often are held too long in storage. Chickens, he ass rtod are killed and stored without removal of their heads and entrals which conduce to quick putrefaction after they are taken from storage. o? MEMORIAL SERVICE The following which recently appeared in the Mountaineer Courier will be of interest to many friends in this city, where Miss Lillian Johnson visited quite frequently. She was a sister of Mrs E. E. Graham nee Miss Margaret Johnson, and the Johnson Memorial room in the Waynesville hospital will be of interest to all: "On Sunday afternoon at the i \*, mo^t impressive memorial serivice when a room which had been furnished by friends, was dedicated to the memory of Nurse Lillian Marion Johnson who died last October during the influenza epidemic. The service was opened by the singing of "Nearer My God to Thee" by a selected choir of the following: Mesdames Sykes, Camp, Reed, Green and the Misses Quinlan and Miller. Mr. Boone and Di. Ashton. Mr. Skyes then spake a very beautiful prayer. He was followed by Rev. Albert New, who formally dedicated the room. He took as his text, "Faithful unto death," which is appropriately inscribed upon the door of the room. Nothing so well gives the keynote of her life as this, for she truly gave herself for others. A touching tribute was paid her splendid qualities of sterling worth and her lovable and amiable disposition. Mr. New also spoke of her unswerving devotion to duty and conscientious consideration for her patients, about which he knew, as she had been his nurse wnne ne was a patient in the hospital. During which time he held reigious services for the patients at her request. The choir then closed with the singing of "Abide With Me," and "Peace, Sweet Peace." s.c. 30tR, 1919 Ich Cows at Loare from 3 to 5 pringcrs. They ew of them pure best farmers of ner.

She had endcarOvl hereslf to all who were fortunate enough to know her. When the influenza epidemic came and tiie hospital 1 was filled to overflowing with pa- j tients and many of the nurses were strikep down with the contagion she proved that she possessed the hig i ideal of self sacrifice of the real | nurse. Even after she was ill and should have given up she felt so strongly the great need of the sick j about her that she fought until her strength failoci and even in the last moments her thoughts were of others.
