BOTH PARTIES TO
FIGHT ON CAUCUS
Republicans and Democrats
Have Many Points TO
Smooth Out
BY .4ssoefntcd Prcst

Washington, ID. c.. March S0.-Fac-
tional battle flags were hoisted last
night in both Democratic and Repub-
lican camps in preparation for the
conferences to-day and Saturday over
House organization plans.
The Republicans are divided along
many lines. While it now is generally
conceded that the party will put a full
ticket in the field. the Progressive, BIZ
partisan, temporary organization and
anti-Mann factions are expected to
have much to say before q program is
finally agreed upon.
Democrats face a serious problem in
the announced opposition of Repre-
sentative Gallivan, of Massachusetts, a
wet insurgent, generally credited
with a score of followers, 70 the or
ganization plan for reseating old COM
mittee chairmen and advancing other
committeeman TO chairmanships under
the seniority rule.
Arriving here to-day. Mr.. Gallivan
announced that while he would sup
port Speaker Clark for reelection, he
would not so into the Democratic eau
Gus, would oppose the Democratic or
ganization committee plan and would
further urge the naming of several
Republicans to committee chairman
ships. Thus far he has not conferred
with any other so-called insurgents,
but he said tonight he thought "one
or two of the boys" would be with him
in his fight.
81 am unalterably opposed to the
southern Democrats remaining in the
saddle throughout the coming Con-
gress." Mr.. Gallivan said.
Fears that enough Democrats may
follow the Massachusetts member to
upset party plans are based largely
upon his success during the closing
days of the last session in defeating
retirement bill earnestly de-
sired by Southern Democrats.
Democrats will caucus tomorrow
afternoon and complete organization
plan will be worked out. Unless uneX-
pected changes are made, the tentative
arrangements for making committee
assignments probably will be adopted.

FOOD CAMPAIGN
URGED BY PATTON
People Should Raise More
Foodstuffs and All Surplus
Should Be Canned

Secretary of Agriculture Patton, fol-
lowing the suggestion made at the
opening meeting of the Committee of
Safety by Health Commissioner Dixon
and President Sparks, of the State
College, has issued a proclamation in
which he urges the farmers of the
state to raise more food crops this sea-
son and that everybody can and pre-
serve foods for next winter in as large
quantities as possible.
Secretary Patton says:
Facing such conditions, it is neces-
sary to start a strenuous campaign of
education OF all the facts in order to
bring about much-needed relief in the
way of farm products, home gardens,
back lot gardens and any other method
-hich will bring about a more ample
1ood supply. It does not seem to me
that there should be any fear of an
overproduction, as the extreme short
ness that is bound to occur in some
lines will take care of any extra large
production in other lines.
We are informed that there will be
q shortage of approximately one bill
lion tin cans and L would call upon
all the housewives to save all of the
glass jars they may have on hand and
TO fill them with such food commodi-
ties that can be carried into the VIM
ter. If each household will fill a few
Jars with vegetables and fruits it will
mean the saving OF thousands of Jars
of food materials.
"On the farms we will have the
labor problem to contend with, but
unless the resources are too heavily
/
all merchants, manufacturers and en-
ployers of labor to spare one or more
men one day each week to help in the
nearby rural districts so that the lack
of help may not retard the farmer
in putting forth his very last effort for
maximum production. The farmers
Will be glad to pay for this help if it
is obtainable. Such help can also be
rendered in communities where gar
dening has been taken up on q large
scale and where labor is needed. In
addition every man, woman and child
should be instructed to look seriously
into the future and boom the utilizing
of all yards, lots or any place posi- Bile
for the planting of and care in raising
for their own use and for marketing
all kinds of vegetables, both for spot
consumption and winter use, thereby
helping to curtail in some important
lines the high or higher cost of living.
I-NeH were we NOT on the verge OF war
such matters should be seriously con-
sidered, but under present conditions
they cannot be given even as serious
consideration as is necessary.
The watchword of the day is Pre-
paredness' and the unlimited care and
raising of vegetables at such period
certainly comes under that heading.
Such facts and advice should be daily
promulgated in the newspapers
throughout the United States"

What object the Germans could have
had in destroying this relic remains a.
mystery. as the castle was useless in
modern warfare. Carlinal Mazarin,
during the reign of Louis XIV, once
tried to demolish it when the castle
served as rallying point for feudal-
lists. Its walls were in some places
