ASK GAME LAW CHANGES
spsrtsmsn Of state Hold Mestirs and
Decide to Demand Reforms in Stat
utss-Huntsrs on Record a. oppessd

Des Moines, Aus. 29-Hunters repre-
senting every section of Iowa in ses-
sion yesterday afternoon at, the game
farm at the state fair grounds urged
revision OF the state game laws. COM
mittee of five to be made up OF one
delegate from each Of the four state
districts, the four to choose fftn
member. was directed to study the
present laws and redraft them, max
ing recommend ations of needed changes
to the legislature.
The hunters went on record as be-
ing almost unanimously opposed TO
spring shooting, providing the neigh
boring states will adopt laws FORBID
ding it also. The spoI tsmen argued
for two hours before dropping the ma
tional migratory bird law. An enort
was made to pass resolution provid-
ing that the Iowa laws be changed 50
as to conform to the federal law.
George Tracy of Burlington, sue
ceeded in preventing this action on
the ground that the sportsmen should
wait until the supreme court has
passed upon the constitutionality OF
the federal law before meddling with
the Iowa law
Western Iowa hunters brought out
a spirited discussion by introducing
resolution which would prohibit the
issuance Of hunters licenses-to persons
who have settled in Iowa and not be-
come riaturaliEed. They stated that
there are hundreds of railroad laborers
in the western part of the state VINO
secure one license and passit around to
whoever wants to go hunting. When
out with gun, the hunters claim the
track laborers shoot everything with
feathers on, WHETHER ii is game. song
birds or chickens.
1t was suggested that the closed
season for mink and muskrat be made
shorter aud that the allowance OF
prairie chickens and ducks be made
smaller, but the assembly took no ac-
ton The changes to be made in the
Iowa laws were left TO the committee.
f. c. Hinshaw, state game warden
who presided at the meeting declined
to name the committee OF five to pass
upon the laws At the suggestion of
John T. Ford. of Fort Dodge, the meth
Oh of selecting one man from each dis
trict was adopted.
The following legislative committee
was appointed by the sportsmen at the
conclusion of the meeting:

cal of fairs held where the location IL
subject to change from year to year.
The writer recalls some Of the fairs
held there when the mud was so deep
all over the grounds that even a boy
round II hard TO get about and to see
the livestock. But at the, present state
tatr grounds there was to be seen yes
terday following rainy morning the
great advantage Of permanent grounds
IN that one might go from end to end
and see every exhibit and yet walk on
concrete paved walks. The state board
of agriculture has been making this
Improvement gradually, and 1t is
worth while. A state fair now is al
most defiant OF weather conditions.
1t is deemed part OF the duty of
nearly every state fair visitor to 60
to the state house and historical build
ing. The people of Iowa take pride In
their state buildings. When they have
a proper setting they will take a thou
sand times more pride. The crowds
that go to the state house want to 60
TO the dome, of course, and that is a
hard climb. A great many walk up
the stains who ought not to do so.

crowds year or two ago" said state

though he never could have done so.
That is typical of what happens every
day during the State fair"
The state house crowds insist on see
ing everything and they litter up the
building and the yard; but that is all
a part of the game and they are well
come.
The problem Of caring for the crowds
has been solved. The transportation
puzzle is ended. partly by superior
street car and train traffic and partly
by automobiles. The popularity of
camping on the grounds has made a
vast difference In the demand for lodg-
ings. State fair crowds a Des Moines
are not greatly inconvenienced And
as for the eatings, it is of all kinds
and all prices and conditions And
among other peculiarities of State

Some very cheap efforts at sensa-
tionalism have been attempted in re-.
cent years by sham reformers setting
out to clean up the state fair and
to drive out the shocking prurient
shows and to enforce the laws against
drinking intoXicants. They have had
little to work on. Iowa fairs are COM
paratively free from anything object
iona BILE. The shows are good the
vaudeville is high class at all times.
The restaurants do not so far out of
the way. The writer recalls that when
the fair was first located where it now
Is, some twenty-five or more years ago.
there was row circling the hill around
the exposition building and it was
given over to concessionaires with all
sorts Of shows The writer made the
rounds OF these shows with the then
secretary, and they were a veritable
chamber Of horrors. They had snake
shows, wicked dances and the worst of
fakes. Such things would not last a
minute at state fair now. And it was
the habit in other years-a good many
years ago-for the head officials to
know which particular barn was used
for the storage OF the beer and whisky
that came in at midnight. It was be-.

CARLYLE TO LOGAN
Representatives from Eight States to
Meet In Conference Over PrOspec-
tive Experimental Work.

Last night Acting President Carlyle
left for Logan, Utah, there to attend
a conference of representatives from
the eight northwest states. Each
state will be represented by three dele
gates, one from the state agricultural
college, one from the experiment sta
ton, and one from the college extern
sion department.
The purpose of this conference is to
confer about the work done in the agri-
cultural colleges and to standardize
the work in the various departments
Especially is this true of the expert
ment and research work. In the past
each state has been for itself, often
repeating the work done by others.
Now each state will take a special
problem. Furthermore it is the pur-
pose of the convention to get the
schools in closer touch with and secure
more cooperation from the U. S. de-
partment of agriculture. Another
phase to be discussed and promoted
will be the EXTENSION work under the
Leayer bill.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 4.-Reopening
of the tap line cases" for further
hearing and argument on the funda-
mental questions involved was made
today by the interstate commerce
commission, as the result of closing
decisions of the commerce court
against the commissions previous rul-
ings. The case involves the right of
railroads and industrial corporations
to maintain "tap lines" to factories,
and in times past has been used as a
convenient method of granting rebates
to shippers. The court held that the
interstate commerce commission had
sufficient power to regulate any re-
batting practices.

United States Gave Most Money.

ROME, Feb. 4.-The United States
led the entire world in its donations
to the Vatican in 1918 for the carry
ing on of missionary work. The total
American contribution was nearly
100000. England contributed only
$4,000 and Austria which is the most
loyal Catholic country in the world
gave $12,660. An appeal had been
made by Pope Plus for increased dona-
tons during the year as a result o.
the Vatican's celebration of Constan-
tine year. The results show that the
United States was the only country
which actually responded by giving
more than in previous years.

of explanation:
Departure from General Practice.
"The executive order under which
the expectation of arms and ammuni-
ton into Mexico is forbidden was
departure from the accepted practices
of neutrality-a deliberate departure
from those practices under a we'll
considered joint resolution of con-
gress, determined upon in circum-
stances that have ceased to exist. 1t
was intended to discourage incipient
revolts against the regularly con-
stituted authorities of Mexico Since
that order was issued the circum-
stances of the case have undergone a
radical change.
There is now no constitutional gov
eminent in Mexico and the existence
of this order binders and delays the
very thing the government Of the
United States is now insisting upon
namely, that Mexico shall be left free
to settle her own affairs and, as soon
as possible, put them upon constitu-
tional footing by her own force and
counsel The order is therefore re-
