WANT STATE BOARD NAMED
Adopt Resolutions Favoring Gen.
sorship for Advertising.

Honesty and fairness in news and
advertising were emphasized most en-
phatically in the discussions of the
national newspaper conference and
the short course for editors, which
recently held in Lawrence.
Two resolutions which are of sig
nlflcant Importance were passed by
the newspaper men. One calls for
the esta blishment of a state board of
censorship OF advertising to be under
the auspices of the department of
Journalism of the University of Kan
sas in order that publishers may de-
eide through expert authority upon
doubtful advertising The second pro-
vides for the establishment of a bu-
reau of accuracy and fair play by
every newspaper. 1t was suggested
that the papers that establish such
bureaus make the fact known at the
head of the editorial columns.
The conference also recommended
that the national government take le-
sal action against all papers and peri
od1cals violating the regulation pro-
vlding for publication of circulation
figures and statement of ownership
and bonded Indebtedness.
The total registration for the con-
ference went up to the 250 mark.

In Kelsey VS.. Rebuzzini, in the su-
preme court of errors of Connecticut.
it appeared that defendant, after no
tice that division wire fence between
his lot and a lot where plaintiff pas
tured his cattle was broken, took no
steps to repair 1t and the following
day plaintiffs heifers passed through
the broken fence and reached lot
lying south of both of such lots and
there cropped grass which had been
poisoned in the mixing of a spray for
potato vines, in consequence of which
part of them died. Defendant did not
know that the potatoes had been
sprayed, or that any poison had been
spilled on the grass and could not
have anticipated that some person
might have scattered poison about the
grass there. It was held, assuming de-

SALT PLANT THREATENED
Flood Water From Arkansas River
Undermining Big Works at
Hutchinson.


son, the largest in the world, is threat
ened with destruction, it is feared,
as the result of the recent flood in the
Arkansas river The high water
brought great deal of water in the
underfiow current. This is going out
now, taking large quantities of sand.
There was shrinkage of nine feet
in the brine tanks and grainer pan.
The boiler room settled about three
feet. As precautionary measure the
plant was closed down to await de-
velopments. The foundation of the
main plant goes below the sand and
it is not believed it is in danger. The
plant is but short distance from the
Arkan sas river.

read that the pelican cannot raise to
its wings except from the water or
on smooth piece of ground where
it had chance to run and gain a mo-
mentum, took a rope and went after
one of the birds. He had no diff

the pelican to use its wings success
fully in the alfalfa.
