COMMERCIAL CLUB FOR
SALARIED COMMISSION
Would Take Administration of High
ways From One Man. Officers
Elected

The Morris Commercial Club at
It's meeting Friday evening decided
in favor of a salaried commission to
handle the work under the Babcock
good roads amendment and voted to
appoint committee to draft a reso-
luton to that effect and forward to
Senator F. L. Cliff and Repre-
sentative L. C. Dorweiler. The
committee appointed were P. E.
Miller, Chairman; P. L. Spooner and
F. R. Putnam who submitted the
following resolution:
Resolved, that the Morris Com
merciaI Club favors a commission and
is opposed to a single commissioner
to administer the highway program
for Minnesota authorized under the
new road amendment. 1t is the
sense Of the Morris Commercial Club
that more efficient business manage
ment will result by having a salaried
commission composed of the most
able men who can be obtained for
such important work, with salary
commensurate with the qualifications
of the individual and the RESPONSE
bility of the Office and further, be it
Resolved, That a copy of this
resolution be sent to our Senator and
Representative in the Legislature"
Paul Spooner speaking of the pos
sibilities and advantages of the Gla-
cier Trail asked that a~committee be
sent by Morris to meeting of the
Glazier Trail Association at Wayzetta
January "a. After thorough discus
sion of the Importance of this meet
ing committee was selected.
Mr.. Spooner who is one of the
officers of the Glazier Trail Associa-
ton said that the organization is
working. for hard surface trail from
st. Louis through Iowa, Minnesota,
North Dakota and Montana. This
trail as planned will run thru Morris
placing this city on the longest hard
surface road in the county Later
the trail will also be extended from
st. Louis east and south to Florida.
Officers of the. Commercial Club
for the ensuing year were elected
The election resulted in making C.
A. Dushek, President; O. F. Hux-
man, Vice President; Rev H. W.
Seifert, Secretary; and w. F. Cooley,
Treasurer. Directors elected are
Earl Eames, DR.. o. T. Johnson, A.
o. Clave, F. A. Hancock and P. E..
Miller.
A suggestion was made and dis
cussed of having a Community Cal
| endar issued to take the place of the
large number of calendars issued by
the business men individually. The
plan is for all the business men in
Norris who send out calendars to pay
the amount they would pay for such
calendars into the treasury of the
Commercial Club and have the club
buy one set of calendars and send
out to all homes in the community.
This would prove material saving
and leave surplus in the Clubs
treasury which would be used for
municipal improvements. AS a mai
ority of the business men have al
ready placed their orders for calen-
dars for 1922, however, nothing
could be done at this time, but it
will undoubtedly be taken up later.

PACIFIC COAST SHIP OWNERS WILL ACCEPT.
 NEW LABOR CONTRACT

WASHINGTON. March 21.-Pacific coast ship operators and seamen have agreed to negotiate a new working agreement, Chairman Benson of the shipping board announced today. The old agreement was terminated recently on notice by the operators, but the chairman said both sides had been per- suaded to get together and work out a new one. No date has been set for the negotiations, MT. Benson said, but it is probable they will await negotia- tions between Atlantic coast operators and seamen.
 Negotiations on the Atlantic, he add ed, would probably not be completed until about April 15, but it was ex- pected new agreements covering wages and working conditions for both coasts would be reached in due course.
 Working agreements on both coasts were terminated by the operators some weeks ago, board officials re- called, and it was planned to reduce wages and overtime pay without enter ing into a new agreement with the men Chairman Benson, however, ad- vocated negotiation of new agree ments covering wages, hours and working conditions and last week telegraphed to the Pacific coast urG- ing adoption of this method.

Britain Will Send Trade Mission To
 Russia In Spring
IRepublican A. P. Leased Wire1


 LONDON, March 21.-The dispatch of British trade delegations to Russia this spring may be expected as the first tangible result of the Anglo Russian trade agreement, according to >fficial circles. Upon the investiSa ton of these agents will be based at tenpts to rebuild Anglo-Russian com merce, starting in a small way and then increasing.
 No eventuality, not even a ruling by British courts that creditors can seize bolshevik gold brought into England, will make the agreement imperative, say officials. It is pointed out that the British government is the largest Russian creditor in Great Britain with from five to six hundred million sterl- ing involved while the largest private creditors claims are approximately z 50, 1000. .00o.
 If the courts uphold the right of seizure. then the government will in sist upon a division of the gold among the creditors claiming the greatest share for the government while private l creditors would get a relatil ely small share in payment of what was due. The result would be a tenn oraTY de- lay in trade between the two coun- tries but negotiations would be started anew
 Although Great Britain is the first to sign q formal agreement. it is re- ported Germany, Italy. Sweden and Finland are negotiating trade pacts with Russia

 LEADER IF BRITISH HOUSE IF COMMONS
TRepublican A. p. Leased wirel


 LONDON. March 21.-J. Austen Chamberlain chancellor of the ex- chequer, today was elected leader of the house of commons and leader of the unionist party in the house. His selection at a meeting of unionist members of the house, was unanimous. Hesucceeds Bonar Law, who retired of i'll health.
 Mir. Chamberlain was received with large coalition cheers when he ad dressed the house. His first duty was to answer ~Yes" to a question as to whether the government would hold and maintain controlling interest in the Anglo-P Persian Oil company after the issue of the capital was com pleted
 Chamberlain said he would do his best
 Regarding the election of MT. party In the commons, it is a political tradition that a man cannot be leader of the whole party unless he has first been premier. In ordinary party gov ernment, the premier would be leader of the whole party, but the coalition complicates matters. Mir. Lloyd George is theoretically a liberal, and therefore cannot be a leader of the unionist party. But Lord Curzon is a leader of the unionists in the house of lords, and the question of the leadership of the whole party remains undecided.
