I'm BAD with part OF the COM

Dicksen's attitude caused him to be-
come involved with the federal au-
thorities. He was convicted in the

According to the information COM
piled In the office OF the secretary Of

ter, there are forty five members of
the house giving their occupations rs

In the senate thirteen members

as farmer bankers. and one as law
yar banker. Other occupations are
also represented,
On the whole there are many new
members both In the house and sens
ate. This is another reason why the
handling of code revision will prob
ably be postponed to be taken up at
Il special session. as the new legisla~
tors do not care to undertake code
revision and regular session work at
the same time
L Out Of los members in the house
fo1 are republicans, six are den,s-
Gratis and one is listed as independent
In the senate, which has fifty mem
bers, there are erty-eight republi-
cans and two democrats. This is a
larger proportion OF republicans than
usual altho there ifs not for years
been a sufficient number Of demo-
Gratis in the Iowa legislature for any
particular division on party lines,
The early Indications are that the
coming session as whole will be
characterized by conservation. The
business situation will cause conser-
vative action and will bear down on
appropriations and there will UNI
doubtedly be a disposition to keep
state expenditures down to as low a
figure as possible.

Des Moines, Dec. 1.--"One OF the

general central city where the float

Ambrose L, Urick, state labor COM

just where there was work for them,
where they are most needed or could
get better pay, it would help the men
and the state at large would benefit

the most important-it is the second

Kansas, comes in at Omaha and then
goes out again thru Sioux City-at

Mr.. Urick believes that one Of the
other states, preferably South Da-
kota should help pay the expenses
OF maintaining this proposed en-

Barrett hunted up Hickey and with
