second half was over the score was tied,

Fortier and Tanner each made two
field goals, Tanner getting the only two
field baskets registered by Little Falls
in the first half. Bastien secured but
one field goal but he was sure shot on
the free throws and made seven points
in eleven chances. Baker and Kiewel,
while failing to make any points, con-
tributed their share toward the victory
by their splendid guarding. =

WILL GIVE CHICAGO
DRY EVE TONIGHT
Ckv Associated Pressl

CHICAGO. Dec. 31.-More than
5000 officers of the law, including an
enlarged staff from Prohibition Direc-
tor Charles A Gregory's office, % in
vestigators from Attorney General
Brundage's office, and city policemen
were ready today to give Chicago
dry New Years eve.
Preparations went ahead to make
Chicagoans realize that real prohibit
ton is here" despite the decision by
Police Court Judge John X. Prindi-
vile yesterday that the police have no
right to search saloons, restaurants,
homes or persons for liquor without a
search warrant.
At first this decision caused thrill
of hope among the would-be cele-
brants, then federal and city authori-
ties pointed out that drinking of il
licit liquor was not affected by the
decision.
If liquor is in evidence at cafes or
restaurants, it's owner will be arrested
and proprietors who have a guilty
knowledge of its presence will receive
the same treatment, Chief of Police
Fitzmorris said. 'The police will 60
as far as the law VIII let them, and
that is far enough to make Chicago

SECRETARY WALLACE
SUMMONS NATIONAL
FARM CONFERENCE
eBy Associated Press)

WASHINGTON, Dec 31-Acting at
the direction of President Harding
Secretary Wallace was extending in
vitations today to farmers organiZa-
tions and representatives of industries
associated directly or indirectly with
agriculture to attend a national con-
ference here, probably within a month
to suggest practical ways of i'm
provement" for 'the severe agricul-
tural depression which exists through
out the land"
The presidents request that such a
conference be called was announced
yesterday in letter to the secretary
in which he declared that while mo
one will pretend that the present con-
ditions could have been avoided, none
of us is willing to agree that there
ought not to be some corrective con-
structive step taken to remedy the
severe hardships under which so i'm
portant portion of our productive citi-
zenships in struggling"
He suggested that the conference
for which no date has not yet been
set nor a complete invitation list be
made up might divide it's work into
two sections, one for construction of
"our present day difficulties" and the
other to work out general policies for
the future.
