To-day the British were holding

few posts in very small area Of the

The Germans massed for several
other attacks. but all these we're
nipped in the bud by artillery and
machine gun fire.
The entire British line was we'll

Under this bill taxing bodies must

in fact must thus set out In figures

Of levying more than is necessary as Is

by A. II. Davidson, secretary OF the

Des Moines, March 1.-THE bill to
abolish the state printer and binder
was recommended out favorably for
passage by the house committee yes
terday. Opponents Of the measure say
that it will not pass.
The bill would provide that the gov
ernor, the secretary Of the executive
council. and the state document editor
constitute committee on printing and
let the same by contract. It's oppo-
nents declare that it's weakness is that
it provides for no specifications for the
printing whatever nor for the auditing
of the bills; that under its provisions
the printer securing the contract could
be paid three times for much of the
work as he could be paid for the first
proof, the revise and for the final print
ing of matter submitted, on the method
Of doing the work.
Under the proposed bill I could take
the contract for the state printing at
25 cents per thousand ems and make
four times as much money as I am now
making at As cents per thousand ems
said Robert Henderson, state printer
in discussing the proposed law today
This proposed law amounts to nothing
more nor less than an attempted raid
on the state treasury Printing, 30 far
as prices is concerned, is all a matter
of specifications and audit.
In Illinois a firm took contract for
state printing on a bid Of IS cents pc"
thousand ems and made handsome
profit. In Pennsylvania one firm made
a profit of $4,000 on one job Of state
printing.
The Iowa law is now so safeguard
cd that it can not be taken advantage
Of. The price fixed for doing the work
is so low that the only reason state
printer can afford to do it is that he
gets all of the state work without the
expense of going after it and he can
therefore do it on a Very close margin.
In other words he is doing it at whole
sale rates whereas if he only got part
of the work he would have to charge
retail rates in order to get out on it, g.
