FINANCIAL AID FOR
BALL ASSOCIATION
CLOSE TO $1,000 PLEDGED AT
MASS MEETING LAST EVEN
ING.

All doubts regarding the retention
of the local baseball franchise were
removed last evening when over 200
baseball enthusiasts convening at
the commercial club room put for
ward plan for bringing sufficient
financial support to retain Altizer
and his players for the remainder of
the season. 1t was an easy matter
to handle through selling at $50 each
the tickets for the remaining 33
games that are scheduled to be play
ed at the park.
President Cantillion of the state
league was present last evening and
inspired the fans to carry their team
until fall. He manifested a special
interest in Madison and in the To-
cal baseball association. His help
full talk resulted in raising $500 in
cash in a very few minutes.
President Fairchild of the local
association has taken a great inter
est in Madison's team and state lea
que baseball. He explained just
how to avoid a deficit and put the
association on a solid basis.
Dave Altizer and every man on
playing contract prefer to continue
the season in the employ of the Ma
olson association. They have been
well treated here and are taking per-
sonal pride in the final contests. Lats
evening they again defeated Sioux
Falls, and, if the weather permits
they hope to trim the Indians in to-
nights six o'clock game.
If those who formerly pledged a
specified amount to the association
would make good that pledge in cash
at once the association directors
certainly breath easier. All should
cooperate to the extent of their abil-
ity and thus ease the situation.
President Cantillion spoke favor
ably of Madison's players whom he
has watched in action during several
games He will remain in Madison a
day or two and it would be well for
more of our business men to become
better acquainted with him by meet
ing him personally.

RESERVE BANK RATE
CUT AIM IN SENATE
DRIVE TO FORCE FURTHER RE.
DUCTION IN REDISCOUNT
CHARGES PROPOSED.

Washington, July "a drive to
force further reduction in rediscount
rates by Federal Reserve banks will
be made in the senate. Several mem
bers from the cotton growing section
in the south and from the agricul-
tural districts in the west propose to
join in the movement. A resolution
declaring it TO be the sense of the
senate, that the Federal Reserve
board should reduce the present
rate, which is per cent in most of
the banks, to per cent, will be
pressed by Senator William H. King,
of Utah, democrat
Mr.. Kings resolution recites:
"On December 80, 1920, the gold
reserves of Federal Reserve banks
amounted to $2,059, 100000, and
outstanding Federal Reserve notes
amounted to $3,345, 100000, against
which the Federal Reserve banks
held, exclusive of said gold reserves,
discounts and other earning assets
in the amount of $3,263, 100000.
1T is alleged the policy of the
Federal Reserve board restricts the
volume of current mercantile paper
and the volume of business of the
country by the imposition and eXac-
ton of unreasonable and unwarrant-
ed rates of rediscount
''It is impolitic and unwise for
the Federal Reserve board to estab-
lish or maintain the rediscount rates
so as unreasonably to restrict the
volume of mercantile paper or cur
tail the facilities for the clearing of
mercantile bills.
"Such policy on the part of the
Federal Reserve board tends to the
depression of business and retarda-
tion of the settlement and clearing
of mercantile bills and accounts, and
reacts adversely upon the commerce
and industry of the country and the
prosperity of the people"
Senator Heflin of Alabama, is one
of the most vehement in expressing
his opinion of the present policy OF
the Federal Reserve board. He goes
so far as to charge that the board is
guilty of murder.
'If the Federal Reserve board con-
tinues this policy, it is guilty OF
murder" said Senator Heflin in dis
cussing the situation. ''In the state
of Georgia few weeks ago, for
mer member of the house, one OF
the wealthiest bankers in the state
put a pistol to his head and killed
himself, and it was found when the
trouble was over that he had assets
enough to have taken care of all his
Indebtedness if he had been treated
fairly. There are number OF in
stances of this kind. Is the admins
tration going to permit the Federal
Reserve board to leave in its wake
the wreck and ruin of the agricul
tural business, and the dead bodies
of men driven to take their own lives
while the board controls idle gold tc
the enormous amount of $2,450,
900, ,0OO?"

To OPROSECUTE
N. J. OFFICIAL
PLANS DISCUSSED FOR PROSECU.
TION OF PUBLIC OFFICIALS
FOR PERMITTING SATUR-
DAYS BOUT.

Jersey City, N. j., July 6.-De-
tails of the plan for the prosecution
of public officials in New Jersey were
discussed today by officials of the
international Reform Bureau who
yainly attempted to prevent the stag
ing of the Dempsey-Carpentier CON
test last Saturday. The officials de-
clared they would take legal action
against officials whom they consid-
cred had permitted an infraction of
the law. The bureau has already
demanded the arrest of Jack Demp-
sey, the victorious champion, on "a
charge of assault and battery upon
Carpenter. DR.. Wilbur F. Crafts,
uperintendent of the bureau, has
also declared the Governor Edwards
violated the law as well as many
other state officials. The some co.
600 spectators who flocked into the
great arena are also cited by the re-
formers as law breakers. They base
their contention upon the assertion
that the spectacle witnessed Saturday
was prize fight which is prohibited
under the New Jersey boxing law.
Asked what steps the bureau in
tended taking toward the punishment
of those responsible for the fight,
Dr. Crafts replied:
Il cannot make public our plans
at present"
DR.. Crafts announced that the bu-
reau was planning a crusade against
the exhibition of motion pictures of
the fight anywhere in the world. He
said letters would be sent to every
mayor in the United States and that
the bureau hoped thus materially TO
curatil the exhibitions. An appeal
to the federal government to prevent
the pictures being sent to foreign
countries will be made also, DR..
Crafts said.
AS for a probable Carpentier-Gib-
bons or Dempsey-Willard fight, DR..
Crafts had this to say:
1--WE will go through the state to
speak against the proposed use of
the Jersey City arena for another
fight on Labor day."

Plankinton, July 6.-That fam

ing has been heard of him since his
disappearance.
The stock was left without water
for two days and several OF the hogs
died of hunger and thirst.
Henry Gerhard, who has mort
gage on the stock, has taken pos
session and the father and the broth
er of Vanderpool have been engaged

WONT PROSECUTE
GIRL FOR ATTACK
PHYSICIAN WHOSE LIFE WAS
THREATENED SAYS YOUNG
WOMAN CRAZED.

Miss May Bornholtz, 20 years old.
who threatened the life of DR.. M. A.
Helfgott, Saturday, because he refus-
ed to give her morphine, will not be
prosecuted.
''It would be criminal for me to
prefer charges against her." said the
physician at whom the girl leveled
an automatic revolver and fired
while he was scuffling with her.
"She was crazed and not respon-
sible for her act" said the physician
Il had known May for a long time.
She used to work in my office and |
was the most surprised man in the
world when she threatened to shoot
me Saturday"
DR.. Helfgott said that some time
ago he had written to city and state
authorities urging cleanup OF
dope" peddlers who keep addicts
supplied with drugs, but no attention
ever has been taken. Something
should be done at once to rid the
city of the peddlers, he said.
Fears that his daughter is losing
her mind were expressed by Henry
Bornholtz. She probably will be
taken to a state institution for treat
ment, he said.
The girl became morphine ad-
diet after an operation several years
ago when the drug was administered
to alleviate pain. Without the par
ents' knowledge, the girl continued
to take the drug for many months
after the operation, he said, until
until finally she became confirm
ed user of the drug.
Miss Bornholtz was removed from
the city Jail to the county jail Satur-
day afternoon and probably will be
held there until she is partially
cured of the drug habit 1t is said
that her father is in favor of leaving
her in the county jail until other ar
rangements have been made.

AIR LANES To
COVER THE U. S
ARMY PLANE A SYSTEM OF Mo-
DEL ROUTES.

Washington, ID. c., July "a
system of model airways, covering
the entire continent, is planned by
the army air service for the use of
all operators or owners of aircraft.
1t contemplates various chains of
well organized landing fields, sup
plemented by frequent emergency
fields and Identification markers
connecting the principal cities.
Because of the lack of federal ap-
preparations, air service officials said
today, it was their purpose to ap-
peal to the chambers of commerce,
aerial clubs and civic organizations
boy scouts organization already has
pledged it's cooperation, it was said,
and will construct Identification
markers, guard wrecked planes, sub
nit monthly reports on emergency
landing field conditions and general
ly assist aviators in trouble.
The plan calls for the first of the
model airways between Washington
and Dayton, o., with five main sta
tions, ten subsidiary stations and
twenty emergency fields.
Each main station will be provided
with municipal landing field, wire
less and telephone equipment and
meteorological station which will
forecast weather conditions and win
directions and disseminate informa-
ton to the fielrs along the route.
Other airways tentatively approx
al by the service to be included in
the national system include one from
New York City to. Langley field, Vir-
ginia, connecting the principal cities
between the two terminals; one from
Jacksonville, Fla, to San Diego, Cal,
along the general line of Mobile,
Ala, San Antonio, Tex, and Tucson,
Ariz; another from st. Paul and
Minneapolis to Seattle, to be known
as the Yellowstone trail, along the
general line of Aberdeen, S. D., Miles
City, Billings and Butte, Mont; Co
eur d'Aline, Idaho, and Spokane,
Wash, and another proposes to con-
meet New Orleans, La, and Chicago,
Ill.,, taking the Mississippi valley
route.

Expect Increase In
Number of Teachers

vermillion, July 6.-From the
greatly increased enrolment at all
the summer schools in South Dakota
1t is predicted there will be larger
number of available school teachers
in the state this fall than at any
time since 1915.
The summer school of the Univer-
sity of South Dakota, which opened
last week has an attendance more
than so per cent larger than last
year and by far the largest number
it ever has had. Nearly all of those
attending are ulanning to teach
school or are seeking better posi-
tions as teachers. ALI of the educa-
tional institutions in the state hav-
ing summer schools report about the
same increase in attendance. ).

j. s. WARNED Of
DISEASED DOCTRINES
FALSE SECURITY BRINGS DE-
STRUCTION, SAYS KNOX, CIT
ING PERiLOUS THEORIES
OF ALIENS.

Philadelphia, July 6.-Speaking
at Fourth of July celebration in
Independence Hall, Senator p. c.
Knox of Pennsylvania warned
against the novel theories and gov
ernment and social economic life
brought to this country by races
from alien soil-"doctrines born of
the ills of the lands from which they
come, radical remedies, sometimes
selfannihilating to those using
them"
Mighty ferments are at work
amongst us governmentally and So
cially," the senator said. To-day
there are coming to us by the mil
lions, peoples from races untradi-
toned and unseasoned in selfgovern-
ment, peoples unfamiliar with and
largely unappreciative of its goods,
and untutored to tolerate and meet
its evils. There are those among us
who deny the very basis of our social
order, the very foundation of our
whole system"
AS the nations fathers fought
physical foes and subdoed them, Sen
ator Knox continued, $50 must we
do battle with foes of the mind and
heart, We must combat the diseased
mind, and conquer. But be not, fell
low citizens, I beseech you," he add
ed, deceived or lulled into the
false security which brings destruc-
tion."
The senator, in concluding, paid q
tribute to those "honest men and
women" who have become part OF
the nations great citizenry and are
doing their part in "the great expert
ment of welding together in one
great and homogeneous nation the
lovers of human liberty from all
lands" He voiced the conviction that
while being alert to its insidious foes
the country can and is assimilating
those who have sought refuge here
from the expressions of other lands
