in Grenada Wednesday enroute to
the home of his brother, Robert Dali

he was a welcome visitor at The Sem

Political Lineup

On the face Of now complete unof-

the next House is as follows:
Republicans, 239; Democrats, 1914;
Independent, one; Socialist, one.
Prospects for holding not less than
forty-nine seats in the Senate, re

contest, places the Republicans in a
position to take control Of the Sen

MAKE GOOD YOUR PLEDGE

With peace becoming more and
more a possibility from day to day
and unsettled wage conditions likely
to follow there is a disposition on
the part Of some folks to let down
on their Liberty Loan pledges to
Uncle Sam In short not to pay for
their bonds
Every such person is starting a
mighty poor reputation for himself.
A reputation that he win have diff
hculty in living down.
Don't get into that class. Make
good your pledge.
Like the boys at the front you
started in to play fair with your
country. Stand pat. Sit in until the
game is finished. You cannot lose.
But you viii go broke in reputa-
ton II you renege now.
Your country and the boys who
have fought and are vet fighting for
YOU mean just as much to you today
as they did when you pledged your
self to pay for your Liberty Bond
The need for the money it repre-
sents is not lessened one bit by the
prospects of peace. War expenses
will continue for months after the
last peace treaty is signed.
And in the finality it will cost Just
about as much to bring the boys back
home as it did to send them across
the ocean.
Moreover you will not want to
greet them, knowing that You de-

Penrose Heads Finance


Heading the powerful Senate fl
nance committee, with its jurisdic
ton over bond and tax legislation,
would be Senator Penrose, Of Penn
sylyania, in place Of Senator Sim
mons, Of North Carolina.
Senator Warren, of Wyoming, is
expected to head the appropriations
committee, Of which Senator Martin,
Of Virginia, now Democratic leader,
is chairman. Mr.. Warren is senior
member on the military and agricul-
tural committees, but is expected to
prefer the appropriations committee
craftsmanship.
The military affairs committee, of
which Senator Chamberlain, of Ore
gon, Is chairman, is expected to go
to Senator Wadsworth, of New
York, next in line after Senator War
rem to secure the craftsmanship.
The naval committee craftsmanship
held by Senator Swanson, of Vir-
ginia, is regarded in doubt. Ranking
Republican members are, in order,
Senators Penrose, Lodge, Smith
AGchigan), Page (VermonD, and
Poindexter. With Senators Penrose
and Lodge heading the finance and
foreign relations committees, and
Senator Smith retiring. Mr.. Page is
next in line for the craftsmanship, but
is expected to prefer the agriculture
committee Craftsmanship, leaving
Senator Poindexter to take naval af-
fairs.
The judiciary and commerce com
mittee chairmanships also rest upon
preferences finally made by ranking
Republicans. Senator Nelson, of

Slated for chairmanships

SldlCO tUt Iildh iioiiSiHpo
Besides these Pre-eminen com
mittee chairmanships, prospective
ehairmen of other important COM
mittees follow:
Banking and currency: Senators,
Mclean, Connecticut, vice Senator
Owen, Oklahoma.
Privileges and elections: Senator
Kenyon, of Iowa, vice Senator Pom
creme, of Ohio.
Manufacturers: Senator La Fol-
lette, of Wisconsin, vice Senator
Reed, of Missouri.
Postoffices: Senator Townsend, Of
Michigan, vice Senator Bankhead, of
Alabama.
Educational and labor: Senator
Borah, of Idaho, vice Senator Smith,
of Georgia.
Selection by the Republicans of a
president pro TEN to succeed Sena-
tor Salisbury, of Delaware, who
failed of reelection, is a matter Of
some speculation. Senator Lodge Is
scheduled to remain leader of the Re-
publicans, with Senator Brandegee
mentioned for the honorary presiding
position.
Senator Martin, of Virginia, now
majority leader, is expected to head
the Democrats again in the new Con-
gress, with Senator Gerry, Of Rhode
Island, mentioned for the place of
Democratic "whip" now held by Sem
ator Lewis, of Illinois, who was de-
feated.

men.
With the Republicans holding in
tact their majority to organize the
Senate, Senator Lodge, Of Massa-
chusetts, under the seniority rule
would succeed Senator Hitchcock, Of
Nebraska, as head Of the foreign re-
lations committee. Although the be-
lief, it was said, is that the peace
treaty viii be ratified before the
present control ends, this committee
will have many important affairs af-
ter war problems.

THRESHING CAMPAIGN
MEETS WITH SUCCESS
THROUGHOUT COLORADO

In spite of the fact that rain has do
layed the threshing Of wheat and
other grains very materially, the Colo
RADIO Food Administration feels that
the threshermen throughout the state
are exerting every effort possible to
put through the 1918 threshing pro-
gram. Various county threshing com
mittees have been extremely xeaIous
In attending to the details which make
for the success of any campaign.
Never before have the threshsr-
men paid SO much attention to the
efficiency OF their machines" declared
Howard F. Crocker. chairman Of the
Threshing Division. "and We feel that
the threshermen are working together
faithfully to save, to the utmost do
gree every particle of grain possible"
Headquarters are attaching great i'm
portance to the reports which the
threshermen are turning in weekly to
the County Threshing Committees. II
Is upon the accuracy and care with
which these reports are filled out that
the success OF the threshing campaign
depends, because statistics, thus gath
cred. Will form a basis for crop esti-
mates In future years
Instructions from Washington ask
Tor reports, not only upon the thresh-
Ing OF whe and other grains, but Nd
on feed grains, fodder and other crops

USE MILK AND CREAM
AND SAVE HERDS URGES
STATE FOOD OFFICIAL

The necessity for preserving intact
the dairy herds OF Colorado was reiter-
ated by Clarence Adams, head Of the
Poultry, Eggs and Dairy Products divi-
sion of the United States Food Admin
istration In an interview a short time
ago.
The need OF saving butter and milk
has passed. and unless the public real
ize that they must use these excellent
foods to replace some of the staples,
such as the wheat and sugar they have
been asked to save, the farmers arc
going to sell their valuable dairy cows
for beef and the country Will be swept
OF Its herds" Chairman Adams de-
clared.
"At the time OF serious curtailment Of
the sugar supplies, manufacturers Of
Ice cream have been given practically
because this is one of the forms in
which milk is most readily marketed.
demand for milk. cream and butter
must be greatly stimulated II the Food
Administration is to be able to prevent
the relatively high price OF beef from
tempting farmers, who are making
very little off OF their herds at this
time, from sending them to market a.
beef cattle"
Make milk and butter and eggs take
the place OF the products which the
United States must ship overseas to
American soldiers and to the soldiers
of the allies.

DO SUCH LIVE HERE?

Human nature is very strange. The
Way some women are wailing over the
new sugar regulations is pitiful To
some OF them, 1t seems, a crate Of
fruit IL more than all the starving
millions Of Europe They are the
abused race over the new canning reg.
ulations. and anyone who talked to
them about the Hoover regulations a
year ago and knew of ths scorn with
which any suggestions Of curtailment
were met oan realize how hurt they
are with the enforced denial. This u
only lack Of vision. Women whose
men are at war accept the regulations
with cheerfulnsss they do not weep
over the loss in fruit. or the difficulty
of canning without sugar. They have
other losses to think OF. They know
that doing without few pounds OF
sugar is an easy matter compared TO
their greater sacrifice. Spokesman

the beginning of the LOTT harvest year
Just enough wheat to take care Of

At the close of the 19f7-18 harvest
year the Food Administra tons oficial
reports showed that our total wheat
shipments to the other side had been
141 100000 bushels. Every bushe!
shipped was wheat saved by the
American people from their normal

we sent the neutrals dependent on US
