The price Of cattle is going down IN
Porto Rico where cattle raising. once a
meagre industry. is being developed to
the extent that importation of stock will
soon become a thing of the past. The deal
ers of the Virgin Islands, or, more correct
Iy speaking St. Croix, found a lucrative
market for their cattle in Porto Rico and
until recently comm anded IL cents a
pound on the hoof. Now the most the
Porto Ricans will pay is z cents a pound
live weight. This revolution in the meat
market will naturally have the effect OF
readjusting prices on live stock and meat
locally, since the price abroad was the
basis for fixing the local price. Beet OF

Des Moines. March 5.--Iowans are
going to vote in November on wheth-
err TO call a convention to revise the
constitution. and the question may
become live issue In the campaign.
This is a provision OF the present
constitution which provides that vot-
ers shall pass upon the question every
ten years. One Of these times Is now
at hand.
The Kiwinis club enjoyed sharp
debate on the subject yesterday. Joe
Long, the chief speaker at the weekly
meeting. argued in favor OF the con-
vention and pointed out clauses in the
present draft that he believes should
be changed.
When he had finished. Judge Jesse
A. Miller called him TO task and Wig
orously resented what ne termed Mr..
Longs "disrespectful" remarks anent
the constitution.
In his speech Mr.. Long said that
For sixty years we have defeated the
proposition and always on the theory
that we should let well enough alone.
Today the needs for changes are so
urgent that II will be In my opinion
a calamity to postpone action another
dozen years, for 1t Will take two years
to complete the work II we decide to
undertake It.
ut is only necessary to point out
two things in the present constitution
to impress you with its ridiculous
It limits the debts that
can be incurred by the state without
a vote Of s250.000, less than many
counties spend on bridges In a single
year. It limits the credit of any
county or city to 5 per cent of the
property assessment which under the
custom Of assessment that has grown
up amounts to about one cent on ev-
cry dollar. In other words as a men,
Der Of your community you are bank
rupt when you owe 800 on every
$40. 900 of perfectly good assets. And
then we wonder why communities
cannot take care OF their urgent
needs.

ficient government are two of the VI
tai needs that can be properly met

works when he doubted the advisa-
bility of constitutional convention
to shange clauses that can be amend
ed II such an amendment Is necessary.
Judge Miller agreed with Mr..
Campbell and did not mince words
in disagreeing with Mr.. Long.

BOARDS WITH DELEGATED
POWERS NECESSARY IN
GOVERNMENT.
WOMEN VOTERS LEARN
or VARIOUS DUTIES
To Times Republican.

Special to Times Republican.
Des Moines. March 5.-Under the
direction of the Iowa League OF
Women Voters three days school
Of citizenship" is being held here and
Iowa women are listening to papers
and discussions on the fundamental
questions of government, the sys-
TENS followed In the conduct Of pub
tic affairs and the new opportunities
accorded to women thru the gaining
Of the ballot.
Among the papers read today was
one by Industrial Commissioner A. b.
Funk, who discussed the question OF
state boards and commissions. Out
of his years of experience as news
paper editor, state senator. member
of the state board of education and
state Industrial commissioner he In
dorsed the modern methods of ad-
ministering public affairs thru boards
and commissions. He took occasion
to severely criticize the very class
of male citizens who are prone to
ignore the important duties suffrage
imposes on the citizens
The experience of vigilance. of in
telligence and of patriotic reflection
is vital in free government, he de-
clared. Ignorance and indifference
is it's most menacing peril. Men have
miserably minimized political bene-
fits available thru neglect OF tho
right of franchise. While we are
justified in denouncing voters who
have made merchandise of their po-
litical birthright. the more grievous
offenders in political sense against
the public welfare have been the
men. who. while enjoying the largest
measure of advantage from the
government, have been prone to is-
more the important duties suffrage
imposes on the citizen"
Defends Commission System.
Commissioner Funk enumerated
the various boards and commissions
which administer the affairs of this
state, explaining each one briefly. In
discussing the general question OF
conducting the states affairs thru
boards and commissions he said:
Opinions differ widely as to the
wisdom of creating 50 many branch
es of state administration indulgIns
the exercise of delegated authority.
There may be substantial ground for
the claim that the legislature has
gone too far in this direction. 81
that as IT may, experience justif1es
the conclusion that the needs of the
state are much more effectively
served thru its present organization
than they could possibly be under
the administrative systems of gen.
Grafton or so ago.
In government, as in all other i'm
portant relations of civil life. we
are in these later days dealing with
