DRY OFFICERS TO BE
BARRED FROM RESIDENCES
House Committee Would Keep Agents
From Searching Homes for. Evi.
dence-Autos Not Exempt.

Washington, Aug. 17-"HOme brew"
not intended for sale would be pro-
tected from search and seizure by pro-
hibitiOn officers under an amendment
to the anti-beer bill adopted by the
house before it sent the measure to
conference
Washington, Aug. 15.--The vets
and drys split honors in a battle be-
fore the house judiciary committee.
The result, if the recommendations
of the committee are carried out, will
be that dry enforcement officers will
not be permitted 10 search homes for
evidence, but will be permitted to
seach automobiles, suitcases or
trunks.
The only search Of private homes
permitted is on a warrant based on
the belief that liquor sis being sold or
manufactured on the premises"
An added victory for the vets was
the inclusion in the committee pro-
vision of the phrase that 'The term
private dwelling shall be construed to
include the room or rooms occupied,
not transiently but solely, as resi-
dence in an apartment house, hotel or
boarding house."
The fight came up when the judi
ciary committee began consideration
Of the Stanley (senate) amendment to
the Campbell-Wilfis anti-beer bill. The
Stanley amendment, passed by the
senate last week, provided heavy fines
and Imprisonment for prohibition Off
GERS who fail to conform strictly to
the Constitution in enforcing the law.
The Stanley amendment prevented
the searching of autos, trunks or suit
cases, as we'll as homes. The drys
claimed that it would make enforce
ment of the Volstead act impossible.
In the house committee substitute
only the prohibition of search Of
homes remains. The committee pro-
vision makes violation by overzealous
search officers subject to a fine not ex-
ceeding $1,000 or imprisonment not
exceeding one year, or both. Wayne
B. Wheeler, the dry leader, o. KS the
house but not the senate provisions.

Church Publicity.

DIR. o. H. Pannkoke, leading New
York divine, in an address delivered
before the Rock River assembly, Dixon,
ILL.,, had the following to say about ad-
vertising the church and it's work:
''In this changing world the church
needs to awake to the Importance of
the printed page in advertising church
work. In Luther's day, personal COM
munication was sufficient to meet the
needs, but today we must depend more
than ever upon printed advertising to
inform the world of our progress.
THE use of the local press by church
boards and by pastors is growing great
er every year, and the use of their col
umns in advertising church meetings
and other work of the church is rapidly
being adopted by most of the progress
sive church boards. Publishers Aux

Wisconsin Crop Report August /.

The small grain yield for Wisconsin,
August l estimate, declined about 80,
100000 bushels from the July esti-
mate. The 1920 production was about
1877 million bushels, and for 1921 is only
about sc million bushels.
Oats reserve since last year of nearly
IL million bushels is going to help out
the shortage in the oats crop. The
barley crop is short but of good quality.
The wheat crop is about 1000. 00C
bushels short of last years yield in the
state. On the whole the quality of the
grain crop is below the average.
The tame hay crop is over 100000
tons short of last years production.
The quality is good.
The corn crop estimate for August
is a, 1000, 600 bushels short of the July
estimate, but August rains will change
these figures to the better.
Potatoes may be the smallest crop
grown in the state since 1905. Here
again late rains may materially change
the results of late potato yield.
The fruit crop is decidedly short of
last years yield Commercial apples
for the entire u. S. Is million barrels
less than 1920.

erasing rubber to rub something out.
1t is the habit of piece of erasing
rubber to disappear mysteriously;
everybody had noticed it. But if the

who patented it. 1t brought him a for

THE Lasker report of the status of
the Ship Building board does not make
pleasant reading. Several billions of
the public money tu'"ad over to it have
been practically .quandered, it is
claimed. However. che matter may
have another aspect which has not vet
been presented to the public view. The
board ordered built great merchant
marine, owned and controlled by the
American government. 1t is little
early to declare that the government
can not operate it's merchant fleet. 1t
has not had chance to prove whether
it can or not 1t is again a question of
opinion, as it was in the case of the
railways. whether ultimately the gov
eminent might not do as we'll in handl-
ing the traffic utilities Of the country
as private monopolies have done and
are doing.

That Mt. (Horrid) Horeb Game.

That Mt. (Horrid) Horeb Game.
The ''game of games" was scheduled
for last Sunday The countryside about
Mount Horeb and every fan within a
radius of hundred miles who could
make the trip were all set for fight
of the giants of the Tri- County league.
Edgerton occupied first place and
Mount Horeb second in the leae race
for the pennant Edgerton trimmed
Mount Horeb in the game played on
our home grounds. The Edgerton band
contributed considerable noise TO the
roofing at the home game. This par
ticular form of roofing evidently is
nauseating to Mount Horeb, and like
wise to Stoughton, judging from the
childish squak which comes this week
from the Stoughton camp.
Everyone was on his toes at Mount
Horeb Sunday. Edgerton was there in
full force. We had "Bill'' Lathrop
with us to do our pitching. Lathrop
had reputation in the Mount Horeb
country until last Sunday. He was
thought to be unbeatable. Contrary to
the rules, Mount Horeb insisted on
playing Benn and others who were in
eligible. The umpires declared the
game forfeited to Edgerton by the US
ual score of to 0. A protest on the
part of Mount Horeb is now pending.
The largest crowd of the season was
on hand to see ball game. Mount
Horeb requested that the game be
played with the ineligible players in the
lineup. This request may have been
born of desire to get the money, con-
siderable of which was outside capital.
Possibly Edgerton should have held up
the Mount Horeb club for half the
gate. Stoughton undoubtedly has this
in mind when they make the cry OF
"yellow craftsmanship. At any rate
the game went on and Edgerton took
trimming to the tune of 8 to l. There
are no alibis to offer. Edgerton played
bad ball in spots, and the invincible
Lathrop was. hit freely in the early in
nings of the game, while Benn was
having frolic with the Edgerton
clouters.
We fail to see why any criticism
should be directed at the Edgerton
team for using Lathrop. Edgerton
started the season with desire to
make the league rules more than a
mere matter of form. We tried out
three or four pitchers, and If it is a
crime to sign up man who might give
the mighty Noble and other star pitch
ers battle, then we plead guilty. But,
because Edgerton Isl not satisfied to be-
come second division team, because
we were staying at the top of the heap
even with mediocre pitching early in
the season, because Mount Horeb won
the pennant last year, and because
Stoughton with the mighty Noble took
four trimmings, Mount Horeb and
Stoughton take on that "holier than
thou" attitude. To Mount Horeb we
can only say that had the situation
been reversed we believe we would
have gone through regardless of what
might have happened to our league
standing; and to Stoughton, if the
Stoughton Hub presents the real senti-
ment of the Stoughton fans, that this
line of talk sounds like the prattle of
man who has imbibed too freely of pure
alcohol.

the members of Congress found out
how the owners of homes that must be
heated during the cold winter feel
about the inactivity of Congress in Sc
curing Legislation of relief, something
might happen. Just tell your congress

vote at the next election and Congress

COUNCIL PASSES
WHIP ANT|-KLUX
RESOLUTION
Unanimously Condemns ku
Klux Presence Here; Pledges
Aid to Halt 1t.

Following the Chicago Whips re-
quest to Alderman K. X. Jackson to
introduce in the city council resolu-
ton condemning the ku kluN klan,
Major Jackson complied with the re
quest and submitted the Whips reso-
luton Monday, which was passed
unanimously.
Last week Major Jackson was re-
quested by the Whip to introduce such
a resolution in council. He indicated
that he would gladly submit the reso-
luton and asked the Whip to draft it.
The resolution was drafted by the
Whip and presented to the alderman.
Another resolution had been pre-
pared by other aldermen for presen-
tation TO the council, but was with
drawn in favor of the Whips resolu
ton presented by Major Jackson.
The text of the resolution, which
was passed unanimously, follows:

'COMMITTEEOF5'
RESTS, PREPARES
NEW EXPOSURES

The Committee of Five, which has
created such a stir in Chicago's high
social circles during the past three
weeks by its anonymous letters, an
nounccd to this paper thru an an
onymous letter received Monday
morning that it proposes to take a
rest for a short while preparing data.
Who Is The Committee?
All attempts to positively identify
this Committee have failed up to the
present date. The letters are writ
zen by trained stenographer upon an
Oliver Machine No. 8. The Whips
investigators have not been able as
yet to trace this machines where
abouts, but it will eventually be
traced as each Oliver machine has a
distinctive pecularty which the COM
pany keeps record of. People all
oyer the city have been specializing
as to "who is the Committee of Five.
Some say that it is merely a bunch Of
social soreheads who have been froz-
en- out of elite society and letters
were merely method of revenge.
Others suspect prominent dentist
and seven accuse local writer. All
clues have failed to uncover the real
parties.
Complain to Authorities.
Members of high society have been
so chagrincd by the epistolary braz-
eny of the committee that they have
complained to the Chief of Police and
the Federal authorities. 1t is stated
by one social butterfly that the mails
have been outraged and that some
one will be surely prosecuted. In the
meanwhile the city chatters in the
corners of bed rooms and parlors
and at each word a reputation flies. "
