was established that the ownership of
the Nonpartisan Publishing company

SENATOR DROWN
FATHER OF NEW
GRAIN GRADING
Senator from Page Author of
First Constructive Legis-
lati0n Completed

Senator browns amended grain
grading bill. establishing the office
of state INSPECTOR of grades, weights
and measures as entirely distinct from
the railway commission. which here.
tofore has had supervision over this
4Ivision. and providing for the licens-
Ing of public warehouses, grain buy
ers, etc, through the So department,
instead Of by the railway commission,
comes up in the house this afternoon
for third reading and final passage.
It was considered in committee of the
whole Saturday afternoon and was un.
anfmously recommended to pass.
Senator Drown is the father of
North Dakota's original grain grading
act, probably the most constructive
piece of legislation adopted by the
last general assembly. His amend
ments to the original bill merely
carry out ideas outlined by Dr. IL. F.
Ladd. state inspector, and James A.
his chief deputy, both OF
whom were irked by the necessity OF
being responsible to the state rail-
way commission, feature of the or
iginal bill which they endeavored to
have eliminated during the special
session of 1918. DR.. Ladd and Deputy
McGovern also advocated the linking
up with the grain grading department
of a state bureau of weights and
measures, which would have authority
to establish standard weights and
measures and power to enforce these
standards. All of these things are
done in Senator browns amended
bill, which promises to be the first
really important bit Of legislation COM
pleted by the present assembly.
