Senate PrOberS Are
Hard at the Work
Evidence From VOltair, N. D., Man,
Keeps Committee Busy For
Two Days
LOTUS CONCERN UNDER FIRE
Some Explaining Will Be Necessary
To Set Equity Company Right
With The Investigators
(By Grove E. WILSON,


Has the Equity Cooperative grain
exchange of Minneapolis been absol-
utely on the square with it's patrons?
That is the question that is con-
fronting the members of the senate
grain Investigating committee.
When the committee set at work
there was no apparent intention of
dragging anyone in for roasting and
the work of the senate committee was
made necessary by the evident unfair
ness Of the house committee purport-
ing to be doing the same work. It dew
eloped that the attorney for the house
committee was a member of the E.
guilty firm and that the resolution un-
der which the investigation was being
made had been suggested by George S.
Lotus, manager of the Equity. The
entire house probe was directed a.
gainst the chamber of commerce and
seemed led on by the rival concern, the
Equity.
So the senate set about getting the
facts in the case. 1t has developed
one or two things that while they may
be explained are at present at least
suggestive.
A Mr.. Bundy of Voltair, N. D., came
to Minneapolis for a final settlement
with the Equity people and was pounc-
ed upon by the senate committee and
requested to tell what he knew What
he told was not to the credit of the
Lotus company.
Mr.. Bundy had three grievances.
He claimed that the Lotus concern
gave him grades below those he re-
ceived from other dealers and also
lower prices but his main grievance
was his inability to get full credit on
cars shipped. He cited four instances
where there were errors in favor of
the Equity people of amounts ranging
from $4,000 to above $4,000. These
mistakes were corrected by the Lotus
people after Bundy had insisted upon
a correction. Also he claimed that he
had not been able to secure confrma-
ton slips from the company but adj
mitted that he had failed to keep an
appointment with the members of the
company at which the confirmation
slips were to have been made out.
just what answer the Equity will
put into these charges is unknown.
1t is evident that the tempers of the
investigators and lawyers are being
tried because the least inadvertant re-
marks starts things going, like a
spark in sack of dynamite. Clashes
between the attorneys and between
the attorneys and the members of the
committee are frequent.
1t is understood that when it devel-
oped in the senate committee that
Manahan was member of the Equity
company certain members of the house
committee were considerably put out
that they had not earlier received this
information and the house committee
is now said to be in state of disrup-
ton. So much for the ways of invest
igators

NO ICE RECEIVED
FROM OTHER TOWNS
However, Company Says All
Orders Will be Partly
Filled.

No ice has arrived in Richmond
from Warsaw or Connersville, as yet,
and the Rettig and Johnson ice COM
pany Is making every effort to get this
ice rushed here as soon as possible.
Word was received yesterday from
Warsaw that they had just started
one of the carloads of ice which should
have come On Saturday and that they
would continue to send one car each
day for the remainder of the week.
This delay has been caused by scar
city of cars ON the railroad. The first
car from Warsaw was traced by the
officials of the railroad and it is some
where between Richmond and Ander-
son. The car of ice from Connersville
is expected this noon and if it does
arrive it will gelieve conditions for a
time at least.
Mr.. Rettig said this morning: mo
one has suffered from the total abb
sence of ice, every family can get a
small piece at, least. Yesterday we
refused no one and we will not today.
We have been making every effort pos
sible to regulate the matter and in a
day or two we believe we can supply

No social agency is more earnest

no agency offers a greater return for
such cooperation" says DR.. Ennion

to join hands with IL in giving men
better bodies, and it promises that

health asks the church to assist it in
making sanitary the community to
which the church ministers; and 1t
pledges the experience OF the world
to show that when this rs done, none
will benefit more than the church.
Other things equal, the healthy man
is the moral man, and the sanitary
community is the spiritual commu-
nifty.
The first means of cooperation on
the part of the church Is in preaching
the dignity of the human person, the
sanctity of the individual body. This
will enable the church to justify the
health officer in his demand for a
