AID FOR FARMERS
PLANNED IN ROME

ROME, May 2s.-On the way here
the American Commission OH Agri-
cultural Organization, Cooperation
and Rural Credits decided to broaden
the scope of its work and look into
not only the credit systems, but the
whole subject of cooperative effort in
rural life
The members divided themselves
into four sections, to study finance,
production, distribution and organi-
zation.
The first section is investigating 81
the forms of banking and credit az
fecting the farmer, paying especial at
tention to the former, vas 1t is desired
to disseminate in the North American
continent some practical principle OF
self help. All the bankers ana
financiers accompanying the commits
sion are on this committee,
The second section is devoted
mainly to practical farming, and is
inquiring into associations formed to
increase the fertility of the soil or the
quality of crops and live stock
The third section is gathering in
formation about organizations to
market produce and buy implements.
The fourth section deals with the
objects and rules of organizations
aiming to better rural life, touching
on fhe nature of the schools, con-
ditions of family ifesand the methods
of organizing and maintaining
farmers unions 1t is studying first
Italy's travelling government commits
sions.
The work of the commission really
falls into three main channels-first
observation in Europe of what has
been done; second, observation In thf
British Isles (chiefly in Ireland) OF
the way in which it is being done;
third, and perhaps the most inn;
portant. the working out of a schemt
by which results of this observation
may be made applicable to the widely
differing conditions of the various
American States and of the Dominion
of Canada
DR. Butterfield, of Massachusetts
has been chosen president of the com
mission; Colonel Harvey JoIdan, O.
Georgia, secretary, and DR.. Owens. O
Washington. D. c., managing director
! All are members of the federal com
mission appointed by President vii
son which is accompanying and co
operating with the American commits
sion.

People Masters Of The Saloon

Two important decisions by the sup
RENE court concerning the regulation
of the saloon have been handed down.
One disposing OF a Detroit case, is,
to the effect that the liquor committee
and the COMMON council Of city can
cut down the list of saloon licenses
Ninety three applicants for licenses
were denied by the Detroit council in
an effort weed out some of the disre-
putable resorts and reduce the number
of saloons Suit was instituted as a
test case 10 compel the council to
grant these licenses. The supreme
court says in substance the council is
the sole judge OF an application for
license. There is therefore no longer
any question as to the power o. the
council to reduce at will the number
OF saloons particularly where the
number exceeds the limit provided by
the Warner Cramton law
The other decision arms the clear in
tention OF the Warner -Cramton law
that when holder Of liquor license
dies il constitutes voluntary surren-
, der within the meaning of the act
The business may be continued to the
end Of the fiscal year by mis- estate, but
! at that time this saloon goes out OF ex-
istpce. No right TO a license nor
any privilege can be conveyed TO an
other. The death automatically re.
duces the number until 1T reaches
the maximum provided by the law.
This provision of the law has rot
been obeyed in Saginaw, number OF
illegal licenses have as a result existed
until this year, when the council Gu
down tire number.
These and their dec sions of the sup.
lolae court established the fact that
the saloon in Michigan has PRACTICAL y
no rights under the law. IL exists
by suifersnce and is completely at the
mercy of the people. Every license
is reyokable, and no person can de
mand license as p.rogative. The
cities and towns have full power ovel

exercise it And on questions Of
