Of the Iowa authorities that the Iowa

Church also sustains the law.
The theory of the state authorities
Is that while Iowa may have no au-
thority over Interstate business 1t has
power to regulate passes of whatever
kind SO far as their use In Iowa Is
concerned. That a pass may have
termination in another states does
not affect its character as a pass in
