His Resolution Based on Contention
That People Of Iowa at an
- Election Should Decide
the Question.
GOT ONLY EIGHT VOTES
Defeated on Roll Call with Forty -one
Votes Against It When pre-
scented Signed by Six
Senators.

/ Senator Joseph R. Frailey, Of Lee
county, led the fight in the Iowa sen
ate for submitting the federal prohi
bition cons titutional amenoment to q
vote of the people of the state. claim
ing that to be the only way consist
ent with fair play, and determining
what the majority OF the people OF
the state actually desire.
| His resolution, signed by Senators
Frailey, Thompson. Kimberly, Broxon,
Greeneil and Horchem, was as fol
lows:
I'VE, the undersigned senator's,
move that the consideration of the
pending joint resolution he deferred
and that said joint resolution be, re-
lferred to the Thirty-ninth general as
sembly of Iowa for action and that
there he submitted to the qualified
electors of the state at special cleo
ton to be held on the 18th day of May.
A. D., 1919, the following question:
..Are you in favor Of ratification,
iby the general assembly Of the state
of Iowa Of the proposed amendment to
the constitution Of the United States
prohibiting the manufacture, sale, or
transportation of intoxicating liquors
for beverage purposes?
THAT said special election be held
under and according to the statutes
lot Iowa providing for the holding OF
special elections and the result there
of shall be submitted to the Thirty
ninth general assembly Of the state OF
Iowa, which said general assembly
shall, after being advised OF the re-
suit Of said special election, vote upon
the question of ratifying said amend
ment to the constitution of the United
States"
How 1t Was Lost.
Senator Whitmore raised the point
of order that the motion of Senator
Fratley was out OF order by reason
of the fact that the joint resolutions
|of congress and the provisions OF the
constitution Of the United States with
reference thereto provide That ratih-
cation of the resolution should be by
act of the legislatures of the states,
while the motion would irregularly
and without warrant of law submit
the question of ratification to a pie
biscite of the people OF the state.
The president ruled that the point
of order was well taken, and that the
action of the senate on the motion as
presented was the proper methoc Of
procedure in this case. The roll call
on the Frailey resolution resulted as

MEN
 SAY TAXES HIGH
Many Appeals From City's Valuations Filed in Su-
 perior Court.

Business men and other large prop erty holders are evidently dissatisfied with the heavy taxes imposed by the present Republican city administra- ton if one may judge from the mum Der of appeals filed recently in the superior court Over 20 such appea- s have been filed within the past few weeks and more are coming in every day.
 One Of the latest to object is the AlIing Ruber Co.,, which complains of the valuation placed by the tax commissioner on it's property at 1176 Main street. The figures announced by the city for the real estate, stock and business were S152, ,276. This is alleged to be excessive. The tax com- missioner values the land at S100,- 476 while the company claims the plot is worth only $79,655. The city's valuation on the stock was $40,OOO, and the filling Go. thinks $20, ,000 would be correct.
 Swift & Co. are also aggrieved at the action of the tax commissioner in placing the total value of the com pany's holdings at ASA Water street at $98,822. The company declares this figure is unjust and excessive. The Board of Relief allowed a reduc- ton of $2,675 but this was not suffi- cient to satisfy the company, which appealed to the superior court.

INCIPIENT RIOT
 ON PAVING JOB
Stratford Constable Arrests Angry Italian
 Orator.

Officer Hanford Bigelow of Strat- ford police force hot-footed 1t to Stratford avenue when a riot call was sent by the foremen on the paving job to the Stratford police depart ment yesterday Officer Bigelow pol ished his official badge and grabbed a collection of handcuffs and pro- Ceeded to the seat of war. He found an angry Italian orating to a croHd of about 60 men employed on the job advising the men to quit working for the czar who bossed the job and go back to Italy and free Plume The boss had previously fired one of the compatriots of the orator and it look ed as though war was about to be declared when Officer Bigelow ap- peared on the scene. He imme ediately grabbed the orator and his discharg ed friend, handcuTed them, and marched them off to durance vile. When they arrived at the Stratford police station the prisoners promised to be good and were allowed to go. And the strike was off.
 Lately the laborers on the paving and sewer jobs have been showing a warliIze spirit and seldom a day passes without a call for the police to stop incipient riots.
