A PROCLAMATION
State of Iowa,
Executive Department.
To the Farmers of Iowa:


Your attention is again directed to
the serious situation that often con-
fronts the State in the springtime on
account of the lack of good seed corn.
Because of the high valuation of our
land, it is essential that he very best
seed possible be provided.
Wages are high ard hired help hard
to secure. 1t is, Therefore, primarily
important that everything possible be
done to increase the probation of
corn per mar power. 100 per cent
seed corn will very greatly increase
the production of corn per acre and
the production per man power.
Permit me again to urge every
farnc" to save enough seed corn this
fall to supply his needs for next sea-
son, and : possible. q surplus for the
following season By doing this, you
are following a wise and sound bust
ness principle, as we'll as rendering a
service to agriculture generally and
our whole country.
THEREFORE, by virtue of author
ity in me vested, l, w. L. Harding,
Governor of the State of Iowa, call
upon all farmers of this State to help
in this important work, and for the
purpose of concentrating upon this
matter, I proclaim and set aside the
period commencing

BY CAPT. EDDIE RIckENRAcKER,
Chaptcr 2

II article III means what it says, 1t
means war--more war than the United
States ever had before. If we pledge
ourselves to preserve against exter-
nal aggression" every other member of
the league we have got to fight or
break our word.
If we are going to fight, we must get
ready to fight. That means a great
deal. Only man who was in the war
knows how much. We can't contract
for lot Of war by signing article 10
and then not prepare for it.
The United States has fine fighting
men; none finer. Every soldier who
was In France knows this. And when
they got into the war these men were
warlike enough. But they never felt
that war was regular business with
them. As the people in Europe under
stand 1t, they were not military profess
7sionals. And the Americon people are
not professionals. They are fighting
people, when called out, but In peace
they refuse to be military.
We went into the war unprepared.
and were protected by our allies while
war 10 months and we came out still
unprepared. Yet we spent $4,000. .OOO,-
900.
We had only 1876 airplanes at the
front In France at the end of the war,
and not one Of them was a fighting
plane. Yet we spent more than BILL
lion dollars for aircraft. The soldier
of the air knows that.
We did not make our own gas,
though we tried. We did not use our
own grenades. We did not have our
own liquid fire; we did not have any
American tanks. The soldier of the
line knows that; and he knows the
thousands of lives these failures cost
us.
We cannot afford to go into another
war thus unprepared. 1t would cost
too many lives and too much money.
If we contract for wars all over the
world we have got to prepare or suf-
fer awful losses.
A soldier who was In Europe during
the war realizes what burden a pol
Icy Of militarism would put on the
American people. He understands how
terrible would be the losses under ar
ticle 10. If policy of military prepara-
ton were not adopted.
The soldier Is against bringing Euro
pean militarism to America and he Is
against sacrificing American flesh and
blood In conflicts for which we are not
prepared. If we go into the League of
Nations we would have to choose
preparation or punishment. He knows
1t. That is why he does not want this
country to go In under article 10. That
is why he is against the League OF Ma
tons

NATURALIZATION

the senate memorial asking congress
for a constitutional amendment pro
viding that children Of such aliens as
cannot be naturalized shall retain the
nationality of their parents. A meas
ure designed to bar Japanese born in
America from becoming American
citizens. A spirited debate over the
measure, which was fathered by the
American legion, followed, but the
vote was unanimous.
Another important measure passed
was the bill introduced by Mrs.
Thompson, levying an annual tax OF
two mills for public elementary
schools and providing for the dis
bursement thereof. This bill, as ex-
planned by the author, places the pub
lie schools upon a substantial finan-
cial basis instead of sporadic district
!financeering.
The joint resolution for a memorial
to congress favoring the opening of
Klamath lake flooded land to soldier
settlement was passed unanimously.

removal of county seats, was amended

OREGON AND O.A.C.
SCRAP OVER Shares
UNDER M|LLACE TAX

Open warfare was declared, pot orr
ficially but in fact, never the less. be
tween the University of Oregon and
the Oregon Agricultural college when
a bill providing for millage tax OF
one and six e-hundredths Of mill
on the assessed valuation Of the state
was introduced in the house by Kubli,
for the maintenance OF these two instf-
ttuions and the Oregon State Normal
school.
The bill provides that this shall be
levied in 1920 and every year there
after and that SO one-hundredths of a
mill shall be apportioned to the Uni-
versity of Oregon, an equal sum to the
Oregon Agricultural college and the re-
naming 6 one -hundredths OF mill to
the Oregon State Normal school.
Reducing this to dollars 1t would
mean that on the basis of the present
assessed valuation the University of
Oregon would be given an annual milf-
age appropriation of approximately
$780, 900 and the oregon Agricultural
college of an equal amount, while the
normal school would be given about
.S59,400
The controversy arises over the in
sistence of the University of Oregon
that 1t and the oregon Agriculturas
college shall share equally in the
amount to be provided.

SINS IS FIRST
WITNESS HEARD
BY COMMITTEE

Washington, Jan. 16.-Rear Admiral
William s. Sims, whose letter to Secre-
tary Daniels recently declining the dis.
tinguished service medal awarded him
|precipitated the controversy over the
award of naval war time honors, was
the first witness on the list of those to
appear before the senate sub-commit
tee today according to an announce
ment by Chairman Hale. 1t was ex-
pected Rear Admiral Sims testimony
would take at least two days and would
include resume Of the entire subject
|of the naval conduct of the war.
Opening the hearing, Chairman Hale
said congress intended that the award
of honors won by naval officers and
men in time of war should be beyond
the influence of friendship, patronage
or politics" but that there was a feel
ing over the country that the intent OF
congress had been violated.
Discourtesy Charged.
Senator Pittman, democrat, charged
with the committee with discourtesies
to Secretary Daniels in calling Admir-
al Sims, o subordinate officer, before
hearing Secretary Daniels, the imam
who is virtually on trial here" He
said Mr.. Daniels was responsible for
the awards and should be heard first.
Chairman Hale replied that no dis
courtesy was intended to the secretary,
but that it was thought best to call
frs Admiral Sims, who made he prin-
cipal charges in the controversy. The
Chairman said Secretary Daniels would
be given an opportunity to testify later
Senator Pittman then asked unani-
nous consent to have Secretary Daniels
called before proceeding further but
Chairman Hale objected
Roll Call Asked.
Senator Pittman then. demanded q
roll call on formal motion, which was
lost by vote of to 2.
A motion by Senator Pittman thai
Secretary Daniels be called as soon al
Rear Admiral Sims finished his testi
mony also was defeated.
On taking the stand, Admiral Sims
said he had received reply to his let
ter to Mr. Daniels criticising the meth
DDS of making the naval awards; thai
lthe reply was personal and simply sale
no final action on the awards had beer
made.
