Nevada. June e3-'If they'd shoot
the president and some Of those other
leaders down at Washington. we would
not be in this war" was a remark that
started a little uprising at Roland
Thursday.
During a Red Cross campaign for
raising funds is a poor time to spring
pacifist talk or aid disloyal tenden-
cies in Roland or any other commun-
ity in Story county Even tho IS per
cent Of the people Of Roland are or
Scandinavian descent. they are the
most loyal class of citizens that we
have and they resent any other mood
The above remark was made by
we'll known citizen of that community
and the citizens were at once aroused
He was at once taken in charge by a
crowd led by some of the recruits IN
the ambulance corps there, marched
up the street, made to kneel before
and kiss the stars and stripes ana
publicly retract his remark. This was
followed by similar procedure with
a second man who had given evidence
of similar thought and tendencies.
The people were thoroughly aroused
over the matter and 1t was but a short
time until there was a large crowd or
people on the streets sorely wrought up
over the affair. The word was given
out over the farmer telephone lines
and FOR time it looked as tho vio-
lence was in the atmosphere.

Des Moines, June 23.-Members OF
the state council Of defense yesterday
asked Governor Harding to call spe-
cial session of the legislature to give
the council some authority and funds
to prosecute it's work. Governor Hard
ing, however, is opposed to calling an
extra session. The commission finds
that it has but limited authority and
absolutely no funds. Unlike commits
sions in neighboring states which were
created by the legislatures of those
states Iowa's commission was appoint
ed by the governor. They have no
funds, as has been pointed out before,
and none Of the emergency war pro-
visions provide any, SO far as the COM
mittee can discover. Members of the
commission, twenty one in all, are
looked upon as exceptionally strong
men in the state. They are hampered
in the prosecution of their work, they
declare, under present conditions.
Governor Harding was not in the
city yesterday but was at Red Oak.
When called by long distance telephone
and asked about a special session of
the legislature the governor said:
There will be no extra session of
the legislature at this time. There is
no emergency that renders a special
session necessary. Iowa has done and
is doing all she can as her part in the
prosecution of this war.

anxious to do everything necessary to
