GIVEN A FAKE DISCHARGE
Extra Young Man Arrested by Rep.
resentative of War Department
On DesertiOn Charge.

Though in possession of what he
had supposed were authentic dis
charge papers, Lincoln Statzell, pro-
prietor of a restaurant in Extra, is
charged by the war department with
being a deserter from the army.
Statzell was taken to Omaha Sat
urday, where he is being held pend
ing an investigation of his assertion
that he was legally discharged.
The young man enlisted for a per-
iod of four years, early in 1917. He
was assigned to duty on che Mexican
border, where he served for three
years. Statzell says he was then
given his discharge papers by Off
GERS whom he supposed had author
ity TO issue them.
Following his discharge Statzell
went to Extra and engaged in the
restaurant business. Until Satur-
day he had no intimation there was
any question about the authenticity
of his discharge. Upon being in
formed that he was charged with de-
sertion, Statzell Immediately con-
scented to go to army headquarters
at Omaha.
After being given a hearing in
Omaha Monday it was decided that
he will have to serve as a soldier at
Fort Crook for seventeen days. This
was the unexpired period of his
three-year enlistment. His dis
charge was issued that many days
too soon, which fact made them IL
legal declared army officers. This
straightens out a tangle of circum-
stances which were a surprise to
StatZell and at the same time
cause Of extreme worry to his
friends.
Technically speaking, Statzell had
not completed his three-year term
of enlistment. He had quit the SER
vice, however, through no fault of
his own, supposing he was legally
discharged. In view of these cir
cumstances, said the army officers
at Omaha, it would be an injustice
to punish the young man. A way
out of the dilemma was found by
having StatZell serve seventeen days
in the army, thus completing his full
term of enlistment. So Statzell has
been sent to Fort Crook, given a un-
form and assigned to one of the
companies garrisoned there. At the
end of seventeen days he will be-
come a civilian again.

Ask No Special Privileges

I'VE are equal now, declared one
woman, land we decline 10 go back
on our campaign pledges wherein
we announced that we should take
our places as the equal OF men in
every pursuit. II the hours we have
are too hard for women then they
are too hard for men. There should
be no distinction" Many references
were made to the women on the
farm who know no hours. The wo-
men who made this appearance were
women from the factories, stores,
offices and schools. When
one especially brilliant working wo-
man was questioned as to her posi-
ton and if she was not a superior to
other office help she declared that
for thirty years she had ''rattled the
keys" of typewriter and that while
she had become an executive is was
because she had been ready to work
extra hours when such were neces-
sary and had been interested in the
prosperity of the business. On a
vote taken there were over 200 wo-
men present who were not executives
while only half dozen who held ex-
ecutive positions. The opposition to
the bill is largely the result OF the
formation of the Business and Pro-
fessional Women's League in several
cities of the state, where working
women have been studying CONNER
cial and industrial problems and
business management They nave not
been much in the limelight but they
have been instrumental in bringing
about reforms in working conditions
for women through harmonious de-
liberations with employers. Some
very brilliant speakers have been de-
veloped through this organization as
was shown in the hearings before
the committee. Many legislators de-
clare that Iowa does not have sweat
shop conditions and that there is no
need at this time of hampering in
dustry by enacting stringent legisla-
tion which might work a hardship to
the women themselves.

Running on High

Legislators returned from their
recess with renewed energy and
pep" and are now running on high.
From appearances in the Hobbies the
citizenship of the state is pretty well
represented in an effort to have leg
islators nut on the emergency
brakes in passing over dangerous
roads for them. Two sessions are
held daily with committee work be-
ing done evenings. Legislation is
speeded up to the highest notch in
an effort to complete the session at
as early date as possible.

Pending Legislation

lSkiSifttIoh
There are enough measures on the
calendars of the two houses to pro-
duce exciting sessions every day.
The senate has adopted a resolu-
ton to adjourn April 8th.
The house has killed the bill to
license real estate men.
The blue sky bills are scheduled
for early consideration. While ev-
cry member would be pleased to vote
for a bill that would send profession
al promoters to the penitentiary for
life many Of them are fearful or pro-
posed drastic measures which might
cripple legitimate business in re-
financing for extension purposes.
A tonnage tax is proposed on Iowa
coal mined, to provide for schools in
mining districts. Coal in general is
likely to have a grilling, but drastic
laws are not looked for this session.
Provisions for a thorough inquiry
with a report in time for extra ses-
sion is possible.
The present highway law was able
to bravely meet and defeat another
attack when an effort was made to
permit road districts which had vot-
ed in favor of permanent highways
to hold another election. The vote
in the house stood 66to "a.
The senate passed the Weaver bill
STATE-THREE $500 1900 ....-. $500.
providing for Inheritance tax with
amendments placing the tax on in
dividual shares over $4,000. A
widow will be entitled to one-third
the estate plus $4,000. The bill
goes back to the house and a con-
ference committee will undoubtedly
be required to adjust the differences.
The senate by vote OF zS to 20
passed the Schaffter bill to eliminate
danger at railroad crossings. The
bill provides for danger zone 300
yards on the highway eacn way from
the crossing and the erection of
warning signs within that zone. Au-
tomobiles must reduce to a speed Of
fifteen miles an hour In the danger
zone and come to a full stop before
the crossing, but railroad companies
are not absolved from responsibility
for accidents.
J AS soon as Governor Kendall signs
the bill there will be a closed season
in quail until 1927. Little opposi-
tion to the bill appeared in the SEN
ate, although several amendments
were proposed. The friends of the
quail stood firm and the bill went
back to the house without a change
of any kind-an exception to the
general practice.

Cigarette BilIs introduced


Suddenly several cigarette and to-
bacco bills have appeared in the
house. This was to be expected as a
result of the complete failure of the
present drastic anti-cigarette laws
which are not enforced or even re-
garded with respect anywhere in the
state. One of the new bills is by
Representative Dodd of Howard
county and it provides for a high
license to sell cigarettes, with such
restrictions and safeguards to pre-
vent their sale to boys that it's advo-
Gates believe it will be far more eff
fective in that respect than the pres
emit laws, which are prohibitive Of
cigarettes to anybody. Another bill
is by Representative Rankin of Lee
county, and provides for license on
all tobacco, cigar and cigarette deal
ers in an amount from $500 per
year in the smaller towns to $500
per year in the larger towns, annu-
ally. 1t is said by its advocates that
this law would shake out the boot
leggers of cigarettes VINO let minors
have them, by making the licensed
dealers guards against that sort of
selling, and that the law would at
the same time raise a revenue or
100000 a year for the state school
funds. 1t is likely that one or the
other of these bills will pass, as there
is demand for some more workable
law than the one at present to stop
the sale of cigarettes to boys and at
the same time not make criminals of
all the Legion men and other users
Of cigarettes who are going to have
them even IL they have TO snip them
in from other states. At the present
Iowa, Kansas and North Dakota are
the only states having the law pro-
hibiting the sale Of cigarettes en-
tirely.

Working Women Spring Surprise


Club women of the state met the
surprise OF their lives when they
rushed to the aid of the poor work
ing-class of women" to demand that
their hours be reduced to nine hours
per week. Miss Jeanette Rankin,
former congresswoman Of Wyoming,
with others in public hearing be-
fore the labor committee pictured
Iowa as one of the few black spots in
the nation where women are degrad-
ed and not protected by laws speci-
flying the number of hours they may
work. A deplorable situation was
pictured by the women demanding
reform. To refute the arguments Of
the club women the working class Of
women demanded hearing for
themselves and furnished a surprise
that shook the rafters OF the state
house. They declared they were per-
fectly competent to take care Of their
own interests and suggested that the
club women might find a place to
work off their pent-up energies in
coming to the relief OF their house
maids and kitchen girls who were
not included in the laboring women
contemplated in the bill they were
proposing. They stated that work
ing women in the homes might need
their aid but as for themselves they
did not propose to have such a bill
pass which would restrict them in
hours that would make the employ
ment of men in their places neces-
sary, without their protest.

sides Of this disputed municipal and
state problem have so FAR been up
able to pick many flaws. Mr.. Spring
er's original intention was 10 make
this process applicable 10 rural cleo
trio lines with the board or super
visors as the rate-making power.
The bill had such good features that
he was persuaded to extend the pro-
visions to include city and town util-
tiles. 1t is believed that by adopt
ing this bill. thousands of dollars
will be saved to consumers in court
costs. Both sides believe there will
be less litigation and fewer cases
taken to the federal courts. The bill
has some provisions on which there
are different opinions ana an effort
is being made to get these ironed
out. If the revised bill becomes a
law it will prove one of the real con-
structive pieces of legislation Of
years. There is a hope that it may
be able to untangle the mess with
utilities in Des Moines where war
fare of year standing has been on
and under present conditions would
run on for many more years. Tho
! trouble has been a lack of confidence
in the claims and promises of "the
other fellows" Utilities have be-
lieved the city government wanted
to adopt municipal ownership and
the city has insisted that the utilities
were trying to put something over.
Now comes Arthur Springer with a
! bill for the relief of farmers on rural
| lines who want to know tnat they
! are to be protected on their invest
ments and his idea meets an endorse
ment for che regulation or the big
fellows which promises 10 become a
fixed policy for the state. A law
which will provide a couch for the
city and utilities of Des Moines to
| lie down together on should be suf-
ficient cause for a statewide cele-
bration.

Des Moines, Iowa, March IA
There, think that will keep you
going some," declared Speaker Arch
W. McFarlane as he brought down
the gavel with such a rap that men,
bers of the house who had been
slumbering during the long, tedious
reading of 1870 bills by titles, awak-
ened to hear the announcement OF
the Speaker that the dead line had
been passed and that no further
bills, except appropriation, could be
introduced at this session of the
seth General Assembly.
Members of the legislature return
ed from their vacations with their
pockets filled with new DiIIs. After
consulting with constituents they
learned that a number of sections of
the code had not been threatened
with amendments ana new measures
were prepared to meet the emergen-
cy. Tuesday had been set as the last
day for the introduction of general
bills and the total number were in
creased as follows:

tinction of introducing the last

two bills might indicate that educa-
ton comes last in the minds of leg

tration bill by Representative Kline,
of Fort Dodge who, practically UNI
aided, placed the measure before the
house in a most dramatic manner.
While the house, during the early
days of the session. showed no sym
pathy for the bill, which was the
second bill introduced, DR.. Kime's
enthusiasm was so pleasing that the
house granted him all the time he
needed and extended him every cour-
tesy during the discussion. This
courtesy responded to his request to
have a former member OF the general
assembly and one of the most popu-
lar men in Iowa removed from the
hall when DR.. Kline pointed out that
he was directing the procedure Of
the opposition. DR.. Kline declared
that he had no fight with union labor
as such, but that strikes should be
abolished and that differences be-
tween labor and employees should be
settled by a court of arbitration bas-
en- on the Kansas law. The plan was
working successfully in Kansas and
if it had been adopted in Iowa farm
ers would have had millions of dol
lars to their credit which was depriv-
ed them when the switchmen struck
and tied up traffic az a time when
prices for grain and other agricul-
tural products would rave paid a
margin to producers. He attacked
the policy of unions to break their
contracts at will. These contracts,
he said, appear to be binding only on
one side. When the bill came to a
vote it was defeated Sc 70 81. While
the labor unions were arrayed SOL
idly against the bill there was no
united action in favor. Employers
of the state had not seriously con-
sidered the, Kline plan. Many of
them were outspoken in opposition,
basing their opposition on the same
grounds they base their opposition to
union labor and refuse to favor any
thing that will tend 10 take away
control of their own methods OF
treating with labor. In the discus
sion, labor was scored by DR.. Kline
and the opposition abused the avar-
iciousness of the employers and the
refusal to provide adequate working
conditions and living wages.
