TAKE X-RAY
PHOTO OF
COTTON CARGO
'CONSIGNORS OF 10, 900
BALES TO BREMEN SATISFY
BRITISH CONSUL

New York, Dec 29.-For the first
time in the history Of this port X-ray
photographs were taken today OF
bales of cotton to discover if they con
tanned any contraband of war before
being shipped on board the Savan-
nah liner City Of Macon for Bremen.
The vessel was loading at Pier 80,
East River, where 10000 bales were
waiting in the shed ready for ship
ment to Germany.
Sir Courtney Walter Bennett, the
British Consul General in New York
said that he had not requested the
shippers to have the X-ray photo
graphs of the cotton taken, but that
they had done it on their own initi-
ative to facilitate the landing of the
cotton in Germany.
"The X-ray photographs, together
with my signature to the certificate
the cargo corresponds with the man
ifest to the best of my knowledge
and belief said the consul general,
will be of great assistance to the
captain i'll getting his ship passed
by the British and French warships
on guard in the English Channel,
Without the X-ray pictures there
might have arisen a debate as to
whether guns or other contraband
articles were concealed in the cotton
bales
All day long the photographers were
at work with a powerful X-ray ma
chine taking pictures of the bales.
Prints will be made from the plates

TURF, SAYS SENATOR
Special to The Daily Leader.

| Special to The Daily Leader.
Oklahoma City, Dec. 29.-There is
little chance that the legislature will
he able to complete its work within
sixty days as now is being planned
| by some of the members ELECT in the
opinion of former State Senator A,
It. Vandeyenter of Bartlesville who
was at the Hotel Kingkade this morn
ing. Senator VandeVenter bases his
opinion upon past experience of the
legislature, having served in that
body six terms since the admission
of the state.
Senator Vandeyenter believes that
it is practically impossible to put we'll
considered and finished legislation
through the legislature as now con-
stituted in sixty days time. NOne
trouble with Oklahoma is that we
are suffering from hasty legislation
which has caused duplication of
laws and much needless litigation
said Senator Vandeyenter.
An ImpcssibiIity.
"Hven a board of county commits
sioners remains in session more than
sixty days throughout an entire
year. How then can we expect our
legislators to make adequate laws
for the entire state in the short per-
iod Of sixty days 1t is a mental and
physical impossibility.
Laws should he carefully wrought
)ut and moulded into shape so as to
make them as perfect as possible. |
)elieve that the constitution should
be amended so as to reduce the size
of the senate to % memberg and the
use to about 60 members. These
members should be paid an annual
salary of from $1,000 to ST. 500 each.
qThe limit should then be taken
off of the length of sessions and the
legislature should be permitted 70
remain at the capital until all needed
laws were enacted and perfected. A
law similar to this is in force in Hi
nois and the members are paid 81
600 each
"Most members of the legislature
lose money serving their state on
the salaries as now fixed and do not
accomplish as much good as would
be possible in a similar legislature
with no time limit fixed.
On Capital Subject.
Senator Vandeyenter said that II
he was in the present legislature he
would favor making Governor elect
Williams ex-offcio chairman of the
capitol commission thus making him
responsible for the capitol building
project. He would give the governor
power also to remove for cause.
Senator Vandeventer was author of

.ature which requires all persons bid
