FEDERAL AID VAIN,
UNTERMYER VIEW
Doubts if Z. s. Prosecutors
Get Free Hand in Housing
Inquiry.

Samuel Untermyer in a telegram sent
yesterday to State Senator Charles G.
Lockwood, chairman of the joint legsla
tive housing committee. expressed doubt
that a free hand would be allowed to
WILLIAM Rand and Isador J. Kresel, who
were appointed Tuesday by Attorney
General Palmer as Federal prosecutors
of alleged violations Of the Sherman
antitrust law
Mr. Untermyer said he feared that
when public interest in the investigation
OF housing conditions becomes less the
influences behind the offenders will pre-
vent Federal prosecution. His telegram
follows:
"For more than two months l have.
as you know. bee vainly demanding
that the Department OF Justice appoint
competent lawyers to act upon the most
important and flagrant of the many vio-
lations of the Federal antitrust laws
disclosed by the committee. The recent
appointment of Joseph Kaufman was
absurdly inadequate. / so characterized
II to the Federal authorities and pro-
tested against 1t at the time. The me-
mortal to Congress was decided upon in
sheer desperation over the hopeless in
efficiency and deliberate inaction OF the
department.
Apparently they have finally been
driven TO an appearance of activity by
my insistent demands. as evidenced by
the appointment yesterday of Messrs.
Rand and Kresel. Both of them are
admirable selections, although the fact
that they are partners indicates, / fear
that we shall not ret all their time,
That would be un'Nrtunate, for more
help is needed. Mr.. Rand was sug-
gested by me some time ago to Mr.
Csffey. who. by the way. is not respon-
sible for the situation OF which l have
been complaining.
How far these gentlemen will be
permitted to proceed against the pow
erful Pennsylvania steel and cement
manufacturers who are primarily in
volved remains TO be seen. but the
fact that the department has at last
been forced to see the light is encour-
aging
UNLESS proper facilities are furnished
In the direction of additional grand
juries, Investigators, &c. the usefulness
of these gentlemen will, however, be
greatly restricted. In view OF this be-
lated action l suggest that the COM
mittee's proposed report, as forwarded
to you yesterday. be now amended by
OmlttinB tne IHefnorldi 10 Congress Tor
the present In the hope that Messrs.
Rand and Kresel will really be given
free hand, which regret to say /
seriously doubt. Ny fear is that when
| public interest subsidies the tremendous
influences behind these offenders Will
strangle the prosecutions"
In the proposed memorial. a copy OF
which was given out yesterday by
Mr.. Untermyer. Congress is urged TO
provide additional facilities for prose
cutting violations of the antitrust laws,

First Negro Is Seated
in Missouri Legislature

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo-, Jas.
5.-The Missouri Legislature
convened to-day with Repub-
lican majorities in both houses
for the first time since the civil
war.
w. M. Moore from the Sixth
(St. Louis) legislative district,
the first negro ever to be seated
in the Missouri Legislature, took
the oath of Office with other
members. The Sixth is in the
fashionable west end of st.
Louis.
The seat occupied by Moore
is one of the most conspicuous
in the hall and the desk literally
was covered with flowers.

Municipal Investigations.

The financial condition of many mu-
inequalities is even more serious than
that of the State and the causes are
largely the same. accumulation OF debt
and growth OF municipal activities
There Is not only duplication OF service
among State activities, but like duplica-
tion as between State and municipal
activities. A careful survey should be
made with the view Of eliminating such
duplication. Things that can best be
done h, the localities should be left ex-
clusiyely TO them and the localities
should be entirely relieved Of the
things that can best and most ap-
propriately be done by the state
I am persuaded that the effort should
be toward decentralization instead of
continuing the strong trend toward CEN
tralization of power and authority
With respect to- local administration
the Legislature should be extremely
careful in passing legislation imposing

REPUBLIC WON

The game OF base ball last Sunday
between Claiming and Republic was
won by the boys from up the road by
score OF TO 4. Charming played
very good game but were not able
to do as much with the offerings Of

done on former occasions. II any

that Harry vermulen and Lyle Lind

and who in the past always delivered,
were called into play at critical mo-
ments and both struck out-not call

Channing's manager, 10 resign his Job

TOWNSHIP WORK PROGRESSING

The road and street work which the
Sagola township board let on contract
recently IS progressing nicely. The
Tobin avenue work in Charming Is
well along. the stumping having been
completed and grading work well
started
There are several new homes To-
Gated on this street, among them that
of Harry Anderson, Assistant Train
Dispatcher, Sam Lavalley. an engin-
eer on the st. Paul and couple of
other homes with prospects OF more
being built before the year closes.
Another piece of work that is con-
templated by the board Is the grading
OF a street running east on the main
highway. just south OF the Claiming
garage. This street, II opened up,
will give access to several homes in
that vicinity.
The work on the Wells road Is pro
crossing nicely and should be complet-
ed soon.
Mansfield township is asking that a
short piece OF road be built to the west
so as TO connect up with the roads In
that township. The construction OF
any roads in that section depends en-
tirely upon Mansfield being able TO
finance It's work.

SAG0LA
LOCALS SWAMPED AMAsA
Sagola Base Ball Boys Played Amasa
on Their Feet Last sunday

An ancient rivalry has existed in
base ball between Sagola and Amasa
Last Sunday on the Sagola grounds
the boys from the Triangle ranch
country were swamped by the boys
from here in one OF the best games
seen here this year. II ended In a
score OF 10 in favor OF our boys
and at no time was there any question
as TO how the game would end.
The Sagola dads played fast and
snappy game. AT no time was their
pitcher compelled 10. depend upon
himself alone. and az no time during
the game was he afraid TO stick 'em
over" for he knew that there was a
Sagola lad waiting TO take the hit
Marsh and Gerard made up the bat
terry for the Sagola boys. and so air
tight was the game that the cowboys
registered one lonely bingle during
the nine innings. Premo and Premo
was the battery for Amasa and the
war clubs OF the Sagolaites resounded
again and again with whacks of the
offerings of their rivals finger. Four
hits were secured in the first inning,
enough TO put the game on ice the
way the Sagola boys were going.
II must not be concluded that the
Amasa boys were soft mark. They
were far from II as Amasa plays good
base ball They simply were out
classed
The Sagolas were going fine and not
an error was marked up against our
men for their work

MANSFIELD WANTS TO BOND
Farmers Of Township. Hit Hard BY
Dry Weather, Want to Open Up
New ROads For Settlers

The dry weather OF June has raised
havoc with the crops OF Mansfield
township. especially in the valley
west OF Sagola and many OF the set
tiers have not hay and grain enough
TO run them through the winter The
hay is scarcely half crop and the
grasshoppers have demolished the
grain. The potatoes promise fair
but they are still at the mercy OF the
hoppers and II is hard TO say what
will be their condition In two weeks
time.
Many or these settlers are on new
farms so that they have to look out
for other means to carry them over
the winter. This fact has dead the
authorities TO consider the opening
up OF roads 10 the north OF the road
across the fats. The land back from
the main road Is being radidly settled
and the lack of road to the trunk
line is seriously handicapping
the opening up of the township
farming section. The township is
out OF funds and bonds have been is
sued during the past few years which
take up the funds that would be avail
able for road work.
A meeting was held at School No
TO talk the situation over and see
II the roads can't be financed in some
way now and thus kill two birds with
one stone. give the stricken settlers
work and open up the country
