Secretary Daniels, who presided as
head of the council, asked the gov
ernors to formulate resolutions sup
porting the bin drafted by Attorney
General Gregory to reach spies,
traitors and disloyal persons. When
full Americanization has been accom-
plished, Secretary Daniels said, not

governors found themselves in accord
with the program of Americanization
by education mapped out at yesterday s
conference but believed more vigorous

pavilion on Vernon street % head had
been disposed of for an aggregate of
S21 ,205. This is an average of over 1929

considered that about so per cent of the
animals were yearlings and calves.
The cow which sold yesterday for
$l,025 to w. D. Robens of Poland, n. Y,
brought the highest price of the sale.
While the average price was high it
was disappointment TO have some of
the consignments held up by freight en-
bargoes in New York state, as that
meant reduction in profits to the sales
company.

Mass, the candy manufacturer, bought
several more head yesterday afternoon,

consigned by S. NJ. Strickland of Garth
