CONTROVERSY AGAIN
 ARISES ON OVERMAN
 BILL IN J. 5. SENATE
Republican A. p. Leased WireJ

WASHINGTON, April 2.-Contro- versy over the Overman bill, which would give President Wilson general authority to reorganize government departments and agents during the war, broke out in the senate today when the formal debate on the measure began with Senator Overman of North Carolina defending his measure and senator Cummins leading the opposi- ticn.
 Senator Overman, who introduced the bill at President Wilson's request opened the debate with an explanatory statement. He said the measure had been greatly misunderstood, that it does not confer any new substantive powers on the president but merely provides for more effective execution of authority already granted by con- gress.
 senator Cummins republican, who was joined by Senators Reed of Miss 0uIi, Smith and Hardwick of Georgia measure, and others, in opposing the measure declared the presiednt under the bill could abolish the interstate commerce commission or the federal reserve board, and they insisted that the authority should be limited to specific agencies. Senators Reed, Hardwick and Smith contended the president has power to make the neces- sary congratulations.
 Senator Nelson of Minnesota, repub- lican, supported Senator Overman de- claring that opposition to the bill is based largely upon reluctance to trust the president
 To the contention that the bill should limit the presidents actions to specific organizations, Senator Overman de- Ciarcd that both Great Britain and France have conferred greater powers on their premiers than this country has on the president. Greater co-ordina- tion is needed particularly, the senator said in the preparation of appropria- tion estimates and government work against espionage. He declared the general plan outlined in the bill had been indorsed by President Taft and Charles E. Hughes, and added: We have appropriated $23, 900, 900 dur ing the last l2 months without CO., Drdinated financial policy. A strong fi- nancial policy is necessary. There ought to be a co-ordinating body to scrutinize appropriations"

WONDER WHAT THE TROUBLE
IS. ANYWAYS -

Numerous complaints have reached
THE NEWS from cantonments and
army camps regarding the non
receipt of the paper by soldier boys
to whom they are sent. In many
instances complaints have been made
that no papers had been received for
weeks at a time.
Every possible precaution is taken
in THE NEWS Office to see that pa
pers are properly addressed to the
boys in camp. The papers leave this
Office all right on time, with address
es printed on the wrappers, and the
fault apparently lies in the distribu-
ton system in the environments.
Newspapers being secOnd-class
mail matter, would naturally be side
tracked in favor Of first-class mail,
letters, etc. Still we hope some ar
rangement may be reached whereby
the boys in the army and navy
camps may get their papers before
they 1.-THE papers) get too old to be
of any value.
Uncle Sam is taking fine care of
the boys, but we hope his servants
will find a way to get the papers to
the soldier boys on time. Life in
camp is fairly monotonous, being
mostly all routine, and the paper
from the old home town is nearly
always as good as letter.

HOSPITAL SIGNAL SYSTEM
SHOWS PATIENTS WANTS

Better service for hospital patients
and a saving of many steps for nurses
are advantages provided for in a new
electrical signal system for hospitals
described in the July Popular Me-
chanics Magazine. The system can
be installed with little difficulty in
an old hospital, if desired, and is en-.
tirely suited for use in field hospi-
tails. Beside each bed is a push but
ton and a small box-like indicator
supported on bracket extending
from the wall. Installed in the
nurses station is signal board di-
vided into panels, one for each pa
tients's bed.
Pressing the button causes the in
dicator at the bedside and a CORES
ponding indicator in the nurses sta
ton to register one of four or five
wants, such as water" nurse"
ETC., according to the number of times
the button is pressed. Besides saw
ing time, the system prevents any dis
pute between patient and nurse as to
the signal given. In case several calls
come in at the same time this appa-
ratus enables the nurse on duty to
give preference to the patient whose
need is most urgent.

GOOD WEATHER HELPING B0UR
BON COUNTY FARMERS.

notwithstanding the shortage of
labor in this county the farmers have
been enabled by the recent heavy
rains to set out a large acreage of to-
bacco, and the fields have presented
a busy appearance to the passer-by.
Wheat and barley prospects at this
time are very promising, and if labor
ers can be secured to help in the har-
vests Bourbon county will contribute
her share to the near-billion bushel
wheat crop predicted by the govern
ment experts. The June crop report
of the department states that it is
possible that the wheat crop will
reach the billion-bushel mark.
Besides the prospects for large
crop of wheat and barley our farm
ers are greatly encouraged by the
prospects at this time for large crops
of small grains, clover, alfalfa, and
some of the other crops. Early wet
and cool weather in some sections OF
the county have retarded the plant
ing of corn, and owing to bad seed
corn, much replanting was made nee
essary. An unusually large acreage
of corn was planted, the same being
given as SO per cent, while the con-
dition of the growing corn was sc
per cent.
Stripping blue grass seed and the
cultivation of corn has been the or
der of the day for the past week,
and the Bourbon county farmer finds
that he can still put in most Of his
time and labor in the corn field this
week. About sixty per cent. of the
tobacco plants have been transplant
ed. The farmer is doing quite we'll,
all things considered.
