Mary Virginia had visited at least
two county fairs in the four short
years OF her life and thought she
knew just what TO expect when she
accompanied her parents from Marion
to the state fair this year.
But when all the marvels of the
"big show" greeted her. the lovely
flowers, fruits. balloons, everything to
dnzzle her youthful eyes, she looked
up at her mother and wonderingly
gasped: "Oh, mother, this Isn't a fair,
It's fairyland !"-Indianapolis News

"Oh, yes" replied the widow, "but

REORGANIZATION BILL
subject OF DEBATE
IN OHIO LEGISLATURE

COLUMBUS, O., March LIVERY
thing was set Tuesday for the intro
duction of the reorganization bill"
that is expected to change the names
of all state departments, force out of
office all incumbents and make the
power and patronage Immediately
available through projected emerg-
ency clause to defy the referendum.
Orders have been issued to send the
bill through both branches with but
little change, but the proposer and the
beneficiary Governor Harry L. Davis,
stood with his back to the wall, in
face of a growing force of opponents.
One of the determined elements
against the bill, which is looked upon
as being largely the product Of ex-
perts from Illinois and the University
of Wisconsin, is the group interested
in highway work.
Storm Expected In Senate.
The assertion was made by Repre-
sentative G. G. Taylor, of Huron coun-
ty. that the governor would be lucky
to force the bill through, to say moth
ing of the emergency clause.
While the bill is first to appear in
the house, it is in the senate that the
STORM is expected to break with great
est ferocity.
The insistence on the emergency
clause already has alienated Majority
Leader Frank E. Whittemore, of Sum-
NIT county. His failure to adopt the
governors view was the cause of ad-
ministration of a special "snub" to
him. in that he was not called upon to
participate in the final arrangements.
The committee to steer the bill
through, is to consist of Senators Char
les Brand, of Champaign county, and
James R. Hepley. of Crawford county.
The members of this group Monday
met with the governor; the drafting
expert Clarence D. Laylin, and the
imported experts who have been re-
modelling Ohio's government, to give
formal approval before its introduc-
ton.
Against Emergency Clause.
1t is understood well that all the
opponents will be satisfied to have
the bill passed without an emergency
clause. There is keen objection, how
ever, to denial of referendum. This
is why the plans have been made to
attach the referendum killer" to the
bill. If the plan finally is given up it
will expedite greatly the passage of
the measure.
. Even the party directors say that
the governor has gone too far with the
measure. There is dissatisfaction over
the proposal to place the Highway,
Purchasing and Canal Bureaus in one
general department. Those interested
in highway building have denounced
the measure, as in the binding of high
way improvement and canal mainten-
ance, it is asserted, the central respon-
sibility will be lost.
Highway Bureau Affected.
This formation of definite RESPONSE
bility was the reason assigned for the
measure-,with an emergency clause
that repealed the Highway Advisory
Board act.
While the bankers and building and
loan association men are known to be
dissatisfied with the proposed bill, they
are not expected to make an open
statement of their opposition.
Their influence is counted upon to
prevent the adoption of the emergency
clause.
Even newspapers personally friendly
to Governor Davis have denounced the
proposition.

to fine Of $50 to $1,000, to which may
be added Imprisonment from 80 days
to six months.
The bill states 1t shall be unlawful
for an employer to discharge an en-
ploye or threaten discharge in the
event suit is entered for damages on
grounds of personal injury.
The same penalties apply to Co
ercion of a witness in a suit for dam
ages or for compensation.

FARMERS ENDORSE

NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. Of the
Wilson dam as part of the Muscle
Shoals, Ala, nitrate plant project is
urged in report by special com
mittee of the American Farm Bureau
Federation as means of producing
commercial fertilizers for American
farmers.
After an exhaustive study and in
spection Of the property the commit
tee, composed of W. G. Jamison, Col.
John G. Brown, Indiana, and Chester
H. Gray, Missouri, president of state
farm bureau declarations, was unani-
mously of the opinion that this step
should be taken by the government
Immediately.
The convention found that since the
government now has the rights under
contract to produce nitrates by air.
fixation processes nitrate plants mum
bers one and two shall be placed qn-
der direction of government owned
corporation which may, in its discre-
ton, operate the plants or maintain
them ready for operation, but with
strict regulations relative to prices to
be secured for commodities in which
products of these plants are used.
Holding that completion of the dam
is indispensable to a successful and
economical operation of the nitrate
plants" the committee declared work
thus far on the structure was only
sufficient for maintenance; that such
maintenance or stand by expense was
too great to be long continued, and
that work could not be resumed until
congress appropriated 10 million dol
lars, which was refused last session.
Opposing sale of the properties, the
report held that Muscle Shoals was
not an engineering or chemical prob
lem, "but business problem which is
of concern to the people in all parts
of the nation" The federation was
requested to see the demand for mi
tiation of legislation to complete the
dam and operate the plants.
The need Of continuing facilities for
production Of nitrates for war pur-
poses, so as to make the United States
independent of Chile, was urged by
the committee, which declared that,
including 1919, this country's total
payment for Chilean nitrates, count
ing freight, amounted to $S0O,OOO,OOO.
This vast expenditure, it said.

Great Britain, Japan and the United

house of commons.
In reply to a question regarding the
passage of the Borah proposal Mr.
Lloyd George, the prime minister, said
he had observed the proceedings in
the senate, but that he had not yet
received any invitation from President
Harding to consider the mutual limi.

questioner wanted to know whether
in the meantime Great Britain would
cease further construction. AS to
this, the premier said he did not think
that had been done in any part Of the
world. Everything would depend, he
added, upon whether the resolution in
question was put into operation.

lions as result of the Investigations
into the practices of so-called "open-
price, associations.
Mr. Daugherty said this decision
does not mean that the administra-
ton contemplates throwing out the
dragnet over all business, or bringing
wholesale indictments merely for the
purpose of bringing a lot of alleged Of
tenders to court and clog the dockets.
what the department intends to
do" he said, lis to proceed vigorously
against those classes of business which
arc violating the law. The govern
ment will begin its action against VIC
lators by selecting a particular asso-
citation which it holds is violating the
law. The department will agree upon
this procedure within a few days. |
shall not name the association that we
have in mind Our steps may include
both the bringing of indictments and
the filing of bill under the civil
statutes"
The attorney generals statement
was made after the cabinet meeting,
when there was discussed the entire
question of the governments attitude
against combinations which are said to
still maintain open price arrangements
or systems for the interchange of in
formation. The administration, ac-
cording to Mr.. Daugherty, maintains
that such practices are clearly unlaw-
full.
Allusion was made to the fact that
the practices now being investigated
were encouraged during the war, but
that fact Daugherty said, does not
mean that the administration must ae-
quiesce in their continuance. He
holds that while they may have served
a good purpose during the war, the
effect now is to stifle competition and
to result in unfair prices being charg-
ed consumers.
It still is the policy of the depart
ment of justice, Mr.. Daugherty said,
to encourage the discontinuance of al
legged violations by voluntary action
among associations with a view to
keeping at a minimum the amount of
litigation brought by the department
Of Justice. He said there are many
instances reported to the department
of such practices being discontinued.
Mr.. Daugherty said there were about
400 in the United States which are be-
lieved to follow the methods of price
fixing which the department holds to
be violation of the antitrust laws.
Many big industrial organizations
that were turned over to the govern
ment and their personnel during the
war obtained vast amount of infor-
nation concerning production and dis
tribution. According to information
lodged with the president, some of
these organizations have since the war
utilized the information thus obtained
by the government to their own selfish
ends to the general detriment of nor
NAL competition.

Fraternity the Great Need.

It was Victor Hugo who conceived
this thought: 1.-THE true resistance Of
man against catastrophes is an aug
mentation of humanity. Love one an
other aid one another. Solidarity Of
men is the retort to completely of mys-
FERROUS facts. 1t is thus that is estab-
lished on earth the third term of the
grand human formula, fraternity. Gov
ernments put obstacles in the way Of
liberty and equality, they will come In
their time, in spite of the monarchy;
pruality in spite Of the aristocracy.
But fraternity is the opening door, the
emptying purse, the helping hand"
