missioners. The farm bureau feder-
alton wants the Adamson act repeal
ed, but has met with little encour-
agement on this matter in view of
the present strike threat.
The senate interstate commerce
committee began hearing on the
capper bill to repeal the guarantee
and restore the powers of the state
commissions. Among the state com
missioners present was Chas. Web
ster of Iowa, head of the Iowa rail-
road commission.
The repeal OF the guarantee, as
the 6 per cent provision is called,
has become an acute issue. Efforts
are on among many of the republic
can leaders to prevent repeal, on the
ground the provision will expire on
March, /.
This does not satisfy the real
friends of repeal, however. They
hold repeal should be immediate,
that the country may have such ben
efits as accrue through the winter.

JUDGE SMITH TO RETIRE
gresham Wei Known To
People in Audubon

Congress is to be asked to pass a
special act providing for the retire
ment of Judge Walter 1. Smith of
Council Bluffs, as a member of the
United States Circuit Court of
Appeals for the eighth federal dis
trict.
The decision has been reached in
correspondence between Judge Smith
and Chief Justice William Howard
Taft.
When president of the United
States, Taft appointed Judge Smith,
then member of congress rep
resentng the Ninth Iowa District,
now so ably represented by Judge
Green, and the correspondence re-
lating to retirement has been of the
kindliest character. Judge Smith
has sent his reply, advising Justice
Taft of his full assent to the plan.
In the letter from Justice Taft
received Friday, he expresses :he
keenest sympathy and regret that
the physical condition of Judge
Smith made it impossible for him to
resume the heavy work of the enor-
nous district, referred TO as one of
the largest in the federal jurisdic-
ton, and commends the splendid
service during his long term OF Of
flee.
All of Judge Smiths friends have
advised him to consent to retire
ment.
The special act will provide for
retirement as If Judge Smith had
reached the age limit of 70 years.
He will draw full pay during the re-
mainder of his life.
Judge Smith was one of the re-
publican leaders in congress when
President Taft appointed him. 1t
was understood at the time that he
might have been named to- the Su-
preme court bench, but Judge Smith
accepted the lesser position to per-
NIT the appointment of another.
1t has been understood for a long
time that when Judge Smith retires
his successor probably will be Judge
Martin j. Wade of the federal dis
trict court bench of the southern
Iowa district, and in that event,
Emmett Tingley of Council Bluffs,
will be urged for Judge Wade's
place.
