DOUBLE CAPITAL STOCK
New Industry Is Getting Fine Busi-
ness

Stockholders of the Owosso Bronze
Bearings Co., the newest of Owosso's
industries, last Friday voted to double
the company's capital, making it $780,
900 in all. They all paid in their ad-
ditional funds and so optimistic are
TWO
they over the future Of the company
that all of the stockholders were ready
to take any stock that was for sale.
The company has outgrown its tenn
porary quarters in the plant Of the
Robbins Table Co. and is now looking
for site on which to erect plant of
its own. Plans for the factory build
ing are now being drawn, and it is
hoped to begin work on the structure
within 80 days. The plant will be large
enough to employ 200 men in two
shifts, 100 days and 100 at night. 1t
will not start off with that many men,
however, as the company does not
figure on equipping it's plant sufficient
ly to employ this many men at once,
but will equip the plant more fully as
the business grows.
The bearings company was formed
here only few months ago but has
grown by leaps and bounds and those
in touch with it are certain that some
day not far distance, it will be one of
the largest industries in the city. Be-
ing metal working industry, closely
allied with the automobile and motor
truck business and backed by men OF
keen business judgment, its future
seems assured.
The Owosso times., 1919-04-25

Sherman antitrust law is still uncer-
tain, and business men look not to the
law but to the varying policies or sup
posed policies of the Department Of
Justice. Upon the signing Of the ar
mistice, President Wilson said "Thus
the war came to an end," but after
the expiration of five months the ad-
ministration still possesses and still
may exercise war powers which give
control over almost every line of pri-
vate business. That the powers are
not being exercises in some instances
is some relief, but not full relief. Men
do not invest their money or expend
their energies in the face of uncertain
ties.
"But the restraining influence of gov
ernment by men is not limited to con-
ditions arising from the war. Before
the United States entered the war
Congress had gradually extended tho
practice of enacting laws which con-
ferred large and unnecessary discre-
tion upon the President, Departments.
Commissions and bureaus. Such has
been the tendency for many years. It
is a departure from the fundamental
principles of a Republican form Of
government best defined by President
Lincoln in his reference to govern
ment of the people, by the people, for
the people," Popular governments
operate through laws. Autocracies
operate through edicts of rulers. That
is the fundamental difference between
government by law and government
by men-the difference between DEM
ocracy and autocracy-the difference
between orderly government and boil
shevism.
Every American citizen, whether q
capitalist of day laborer, whether
an employer or employee, should de-
mand that present laws comforting un-
certain and discretionary powers be
amended or repealed and that hence
forth no law shall be enacted creating
any uncertainty as to the rights, du-
ties and responsibilities of every indi-
vidual. If a law cannot be made def
mite and certain it ought not be made
at all. The fight is on between order
ly government on the one hand and
autocracy and bolshevism on the 9TH
er. The county must look to Congress
for restoration and preservation Of
government by law"

Washington Letter.
AN END TO HOPE DEFERRED

Washington, Apr. 22.-(Special
correspondence members of the Ma
tional Woman's Party express the ut
most confidence that early in the next
session of Congress a resolution will
be passed by both Houses submitting
to the separate states the Susan b.
Anthony equal suffrage amendment.
The floor manager of the Republican
majority in the House will be Frank
w. Mondell, of Wyoming, who is a
jealous advocate of the suffrage
amendment. He has given assurance
that no effort will be spared to ex-
pediate early action. Representative
Mann, who will be chairman of the
Suffrage Committee in the House is
aggressively in favor of the amend
ment. The chairman of the Woman
Suffrage Committee in the Senate will
probably be Senator Hiram Johnson
of California, also an enthusiastic
equal suffrage advocate, who will not
let the suffrage resolution slumber
in the hands of his Committee.
In a recent statement on the situa-
ton Mrs. Florence B. Boeckel, Press
Chairman of the National Woman's
Party, calls attention to the fact that
within three months presidential suf-
frage has been granted to the women
of six states-Vermont, Wisconsin, In
diana, Maine, Minnesota and Missou-
ri. There are now ten states in which
women have the right to vote for
presidential candidates. The other
four are Illinois, Nebraska, Rhode Is
land and North Dakota.
The states in which full woman's
suffrage is in force are, in the order
of their adoption of equal suffrage
amendments, Wyoming, Colorado,
Utah, Idaho, Washington, California,
Kansas, Arizona, Oregon, Alaska,
Montana, Nevada, New York, Michi-
gan, Oklahoma and South Dakota.
1t will be observed from this list
that states which now have full equal
suffrage or presidential suffrage only
control more than one-half Of the elec-
toral college.

CLOVER SEED SHORTAGE
REPORTED DANGEROUS
General Use of Emergency Substitute
Crops Needed According to M. A. c.

Crops Needed According to M. A. 4.
East Lansing, April 22.-An unpre-
cedented shortage Of clover seed de-
mands the general use this year of
emergency crops for hay purposes, if
the farmers of the state are to escape
serious loss, according to Prof. ]. F.
Cox, head of the Farm Crops Depart
ment at the Michigan Agricultural
college.
"The danger lies not only in a short
age of the clover crop this year." de-
clares Prof. Cox, "but also in the
prospect of serious future loss in cul-
tivated crops such as corn, beans, beets
and potatoes, and in decreased produc-
tion of grains, since on majority of
soils vigorous clover sod is necessary
for the success of these crops.
Alfalfa and sweet clover can be sub
stituted where clover seed cannot be
obtained. The use of corn (as for
age CROP, millet, soybeans, sudan
grass, oats for hay, peas and oats, and
sorghum is also possible to meet the
shortage of clover. Corn is counted on
to supply the largest amount of accep-
table forage which can be substituted
for hay.
Full information on substitute and
emergency hay crops may be had by
writing to Prof. j. F. Cox, East Lam
sing.
