FOOD EMBARGO
Texas Association Prepared
to Enter Strong Protest
If Threatened.
OFFICERS ARE IN CITY
Going to Meeting at Corpus
Christi to Act on Im-
portant Matters.
1 That the cattle producers of Texan
are prepared to enter a strong pro-
test against an embargo being de-
J dared on foodstuffs from this coun-
: try in the event the matter comes
up for action by .Congress is the
• statement of Secretary E. B. Spiller
• of the Texas Cattle Raisers* Associa-
tion who in company with President
’ James Callan and members of the
; executive committee of the organiza-
tion is in San Antonio en route to
<’orpus Christi w’here a meeting will
Jbe held this week. In the party are:
1 W. L. Corn Fort Worth; D. H Sny-
' der Colorado; C. E. Schultz Llano.
H. O. Montel. Fort Stockton and T.
M. Pile Clarendon.
According to Secretary Spiller the
cattlemen’s organiaztions throughout
the country are confronted with
some very important matters at this
time- and the executive committee
of the Texas Association has much
work mapped out for It at its Cor-
pus meeting. The matter of freight
rates on live stock market condi-
tion.* and the threatened embargo on
food exportations from this country
! are among the matters to be consid-
!ered.
Join Other Producers.
“While the cattlemen of Texas do
not believe that the administration
will consent to an en\bargo on ex-
ports of meat breadstuff.* and other
foods from this country despite the
clamors of the high-cost-of-living
agitators they are going to join the
other producers in protest against
such a measure in the event that it
realty comes up for action'' said
Mr. Spiller. “While a few years ago
the meat exporting business of this
country was practically a minus
quantity the war In Europe has
brought about a change. The United
States is now shipping to foreign
points more than 230.000.000 pounds
of beef a year. The figures at the
close of July 1916. were 231000000
pounds. In 1915. the meat exports
totaled 70.000000 pounds and in
1914 6.000.000 pounds.
“Despite the fact that the pack-
ers are shinping enormous quanti-
ties of meat to Europe there has
been no material advance In the
prices paid the producers of cattle
in this country- At present the live
stock markets are in very unsatis-
factory condition and few cattlemen
in Texas are really making anv
money this year. The wide margin
which now exists between the price*
paid the producer for beef on the
hoof and the price the consumer
pays for beef steak In the butcher
shops is something that the cattle-
men are just ns anxious tn have ex-
plained hr is the consumer.
Their Attorney at Hearing.
“The matter of freight rate* on
live stock shipped to points both In
and outside of the state is also im-
portant to the meat-producers of
Texas. The Texas Cattle Raisers'
Association has joined forces with
the Texas Industrial Traffic League
in seeking a re-hearing of the
Shreveport rate case in which Texas
shippers were recently discriminated
against. Sam Cowan general attor-
ney of our association is now in
Washington conducting n hearing
before the Interstate Commerce
Commission in which the Texas
shippers are being allowed to present
their claims.
“An exception was made of live
stock rales soon after the Ghreve-
port tariffs went into effect but the
cattlemen of Texas are determined
to add their strength to he deter-
mined efforts being made by ship-
pers of other Texas products realiz-
ing that there is something more
than mere rates concerned the right
of Texas as a state to handle iu own
business affairs.”
• The executive committee at its
Corpus Christi meeting will arrange
a program for the annual convention
of the association which will be held
in Fort Worth in February. Dele-
gates will also be selected at the
meeting to attend the National the
Stock Conference which will be held
in Cheyenne Wyo. January 18-20.
SOLDIERS GIVE MAIL
CLERKS MUCH WORK
Sending and Receiving of
Gifts Increases Parcel
Post Business.
The sending and receiving of gifts
and other packages by mail has
brought the number of parcels han-
dled by the railway mail clerks in
and out of San Antonio above nor-
inal. The increase is caused mainly
»t was said at the office of Edward
Arnold chief clerk of the service in |
the San Antonio district by the mall '
of soldiers.
The presence of nearly 15.000 sol-
diers at Camp Wilson practically ev-
ery one of whom is away from home
has caused a flood of correspondence !
and presents.
“If they don't send anything else" ।
it was remarked “they at least mail I
an armadillo basket and they are!
I ulky. Thouasnds of them have
been sent out of here."
A far greater amount of mail is
expected in the next two weeks. The
tallway mail clerks working out of
here will handle most of the pack-
ages from the Brownsville military 1
district where 30.000 or 40.000 sol-1
diers are stationed. Then there are;
10.000 or more at Laredo.
"The first class mail is far great- :
er than last year or in other years”
.i clerk said. “It is greater than if
the peoplation served had been In-
creased by civilians of the farming
and business class because nearly
every soldier is writing and receh -
•ng communications daily. Most of
the Christmas mail will consist of
parcel post packages—anything front
1 elt boots probably to plum pud-
ding.*’.”

CITY MAY BURN OIL
Believed Saving Can Be Made in Two

j It is not Improbable that oil burn-
| era will be adopted for the furnaces
| at the city hall and in the central
fire and police station. A recom-
' mendation to this effect has been
j submitted to City Purchasing Agent
Mackey with an estimate of the
i probable savins which can be effect-
• ed. These burners use kerosene as
j a fuel and as heat Is only required
I for a limited time it is pronounced
{ more economical than coal.
I The city now has about 100 tons
j of coal purchased under its contract.
( This is stored in the basement at the
| city hall where if the change is ef- I
■ fected It will be kept to he Issued to
■ the fire department and for other
। city uses on regular requisitions. I
1 There are several more cars of coal .
1 due to the city under its contract but .
the existence of a car shortage makes
It problematical when this can be
delivered.

SAYS PARK SYSTEM I
IS FINESTIN SOUTH!
Mayor Chapman of Green-
ville Tex. Also Compli-
ments City’s Paving.
"San Antonio has the finest park
system in the South and the equal
of anything I have seen In this coun-
| try.” asserted Mayor R. M. Chap-
• man of Greenville Tex. who was
here Monday en route to Pearsall to
! isit relatives. Mayor Chapman
who is now serving hls fourteenth
| year as chief executive of the North
I Texas city expressed great surprise
at the development which has occur-
. red hero in the last few years lie
I was taken for a tour of the city by
| Commissh ner Lambert.
“Your parks are wonderful" said
Mayor Chapman when seen at the
; city hall. “While nature has been
j lavish with you in that respect the
j improvements such as the drives
zoo and golf links make them much
. more delightful. I believe San An-
I tonio will profit more by the im-
pro cments you have put in here
; than any other city in Texas. The
। historical associations coupled with
1 your magnificent climate will be the
; magnet which will draw increasing
thousands here every year.
While your parks have p leased
me greatly. I want to say that your
paving which has nearly all been
put in since I was here before Is
I even more important. We of Green-1
' ville. feel we have a right to talk
paving since we have a larger per
capita mileage of paving than any
other city in the state. We claim
15000 population Hud have 18 miles
• f paved streets. (>n my return from
Cearsall I hope to stop here for sev-|
<ral days and believe 1 can carry i
back with me some ver? good ideas.”

The latest wrinkle say# a New

' the place of th e corsage bouquet.
Tais new innovation was Introduced
at a wedding in New York. Instead
iof carrying the customary shower
bouquet the bride hud her flowers
arranged in muff shape. They were
suspended from her neck on a broad
moire ribbon that was caught in a
. knot and allowed to fall where the
corsage bouquet is worn. The muft
jltself was made of a mass of bronze
and yellow button chrysanthemums
placed so close together that they
’ gave the effect of being a fabric or
:a new shade of fur.
i Then un the outside of the muff
। was . nothcr bunch of flowers to
mail a the one tied with ribbon.
I Somebodv who saw this latest floral
' conceit suggested that it would be
an excellent way to wear flowers at
a dance because the muff could be
। hanged at the back when fox trot-
ting and swung around in fiubi
I between dances.
