KNAPP IN A DIG At REED
State Auditor Asks Legislature To
Probe Judges Phone Bills.

Fred W. Knapp. retiring state audi
tor, has supplemented his biennial re-
port with request for legislative in
vestigation of Judge Clyde NJ. Reeds
telephone bills and political activities
He also urges a prohibition in the
court law making ineligible for of
who takes active part in politics. He
further recommends that no court
member be eligible to public office
during his term or for a period of
two years after his term expires.
Knapp's report is directly aimed at
Judge Reed. 1t mentions his mys-
terious trips of last spring. his activ-
ity in district and state conventions
and participation in the national COM
mitteeman fight. Opposition to the
governors plan to recreate the pub
lie utilities commission is voiced by
Knapp. He says the commission will
cost $4,000 to 100000 a year and
that there is no room for an extra
commission in the state mouse; Be
sides, he urges. the same work can
be done by the present court. A pro-
vision in the industrial court law pro-
hibiting any person seeking pubic OF
flee within two years after their term
expires would bar Judge Reed from
the governorship fight two years
hence.
"If such a law were enacted, says
Knapp, IT predict that the Kansas
CITY (MoO newspaper will suddenly
lose it's interest in the industrial court
and cease trying to hold up the mem
bers of the court in false light. Most
important of all, the one greatest OBJ
stacle in way of its successful opera
ton will have been removed"
Knapps supplemental recommenda-
lions based on Judge Reeds political
activities says in part:
The payment for few political messages
has a more significant force and meaning
than the few dollars involved and the in
vestigation should no. stop there. Scarcely
had the ink dried upon the governors pen
after approving the law creating this new
court and appointing its members. when
Mr.. Reed, one of the new judges. left the
state on mysterious trip of about two
weeks duration. Upon his return, the only
Interview which he gave out which would
expressing HIS opinion that the governor
stood an excellent chance of being nom
mated for vice president
Mr. Reeds activity and meddling In the
can national convention in the Third and
and First congressional districts and In
the state convention at Saltna are too web
known to need even calling to the atten-
ton Of the legislature. His attendance and
activity at Chicago both in the interest of
! Governor Allen and in the selection of the
| national committeeman from Kansas
also matters of common knowledge. These
| facts, together with an interview published
| in the Topeka papers last week in which
| the Republican state chairman denied his
| presence in secret caucus held in Judge
| Reeds private office at which two repre-
| sentatives of the Kansas City (Mo.) Star
| were in attendance, should arouse the
drastic action than a mere smelling COM
| mittee.

GOOD FUTURE FOR HOG BUSINESS
F. b. Caldwell Sees Profitable Business
for This Year.

With corn selling at a price which
makes it Improbable to market it,
there is a bright future just ahead for
the hog business. F. B. Caldwell be-
lieves. Caldwell has a farm and plant
for the raising of hogs in large num-
bers, on the west edge of Topeka,
which represents an investment of APP
proximately 100000, including a
$1,000 hog barn. and he expects TO
clean up on his hogs in the near flu
ture.
The corn grown this year can be
fed to hogs at a decided profit. when
it cannot be sold on the open market.
Caldwell says. Hogs can be fed today
at about one-fourth the cost of feed
ing them last year, Caldwell says,
and he sees no drop in the hog mar
ket ahead.
Caldwell has nothing but high grade
