The Present Situation.

In Minnesota, Van Lear head OF

preme, and in control of the chief
publicity organ OF the league.
On the national executive COM
mittee we now have William Iemke.
r. B. Wood. and the new member,
H. L. Samuels Of Idaho. Lemke has
always been allied with the socialist
league element. Wood was : party
lead of either Townley or Lemke,
leaning more strongly towards the
latter during the last year os SO. So
far as the executive committee is now
concerned there Is no reason to doubt
that he will ally himself with Lemke.
Austin. the new member of the
committee, is an Idaho farmer, and
from reports Is not of calibre to
dominate the committee over Lemke's
opposition.
Lcmkc and Van Lear Control.
So Lemke. will be dominant on
the committee, and free to carry out
his extreme ideas esnec.- lily when
backed by the Minnesota socialist ele-
ment under Van Lear's leadership.
With this power behind him he
should be able to regain himself in
North Dakota where no one boss
seems as yet to have been able to
establish himself since the league
convention at Fargo. -
This does not necessarily mean that
Lemke will succeed Townlcy as ma
tional president. In fact it would
seem altogether likely that this title
may be given to Mr.. Samueis.
Then If the league finally goes on
the rocks. az now seems quite likely,
he will be left holding the bag.
while 'Lemke, is the actual dominat-
ing force, a seize full control at any
time 1t appears profitable to do so.
In the meantime Van Lear and his
forces will remain in full control in

LIVE STOCK HAS
SURVIVED IN
SAMARA REGION
Farm Animals Withstand
Winters Hunger Better
Than People.

Sannara, Russia.-(The Associated
Press. )-There is ample live stock in
Samara province to. work the fields
and harvest the crop Of 1922 despite
the fact that it suffered most severely
from the famine. The rugged, shaggy
little horses, great groaning camels
and slow moving oxen of the famine
regions have withstood the winters
hunger as we'll or even better than
the sturdy peasants.
In isolated spots totally lacking in
food the live stock as we'll as the
people has suffered tremendous
tally, Thousands Of draft animals
have fallen dead in the road while
hauling precious food over the SHOWS
to the villages. Others have been
slaughtered for food but by far the
great proportion have gone through
the winter and now. with green pas

fair shape for work.

have been used for forage. The ami
mails have been able to do only about
half the work that a well fed beast
would do. Most Of them. particularly
the camels, present a woebegone APP
~pearance. These ~dromedaries groan
continuously as they lumber along
the snow roads at a rate of three to
four miles an hour, protesting over
every bump or snow drift in the road.
Nevertheless, they drag loads Of
more than a ton Is to 20 miles a
day. The horses pull at least half Of
this load.
Even with the scarcity and dear
ness Of forage. the peasants whom the
correspondent encountered were not
selling their live stock cheaply. Be-
fore the revolution a good big work
camel in Samara province could be
bought for 40 to SO rubAes. This rep
resented $50 to $25. The 10000, 900
to $4,000. 900 rubles now asked for
camels in this district represents only
about half hat amount when figured
in gold but. compared with prices
asked for other commodities, live
stock is still held at a high figure.

This resulted in Townley's dramatic
coup at the Fargo convention in
March. when he announced his in
tention of resigning the league presi-
dency. n abandoned the balance Of

was a revulsion of feeling in his
favor, and he was able to Dust the
Lederbach. element from control and
obtain the election of a state execu-
tive committee which was. on the
whole. friendly to him. This was
done In conjunction with the Lemke
forces with whom Townley tempo
rarily allied himself, the two rivals
uniting to Gust the Liederbach men
who had attacked the Supremacy of
both.

were in complete control. It was with
difficulty that he was able to obtain
permission to place his "balance of

1t was rejected by an overwhelming
vote. and the entire attitude of the
convention was hostile to Townley.
According to his, previous announce

to wait for him for four or five hours.
The daughter was a young woman of
seventeen, but still wore her hair in
curls. We were especially impressed
By the natural girlishness and sweet
modesty Of the young woman. She
was refined, too, both in manners and
dress. Her father apologlzed for hel

OFFICERS USE SIEZED BOOZE
Charge Made That "Evidence" Was
Used by Agents and Friends.

Washington-Charges that certain
representatives of the department Of
justice" converted to their own use
large stocks of liquor seized in the en-
forcement of prohibition laws, were
made in special report filed by the
District of Columbia grand jury.
The report asserted that the liquor
by the department for storage pur-
poses and was used by the officials in
volved for their private consumption,
for distribution to personal friends,
and as gifts to favored institutions.
There was no charge that any Of
the liquor was disposed of for finan-
cial gain.
Illegal Withdrawals covered in the
report were declared to have occurred
between July 20 and September IL,
1920. The jury did not name the in
dividua1s who were involved, but de-
clared that their conduct 'cannot be
too severely condemned"
At he department of justice, ofti-
Gals indicated. that no action was in
prospect since the offenses complained
of were by ''former attaches of for
mer administration" of the depart
ment.
William ]. Burns, chief of the de-
partment's bureau Of investigation.
confirmed the statement that large
stocks of liquor held in the custody Of
the department had disappeared" be-
tween the dates mentioned in the
grand jury report.
The first intimation of such situa-
tion, Mr.. Burns said, came to him
when counsel for. defendant in a
liquor case which had lapsed under
the statute Of limitations, filed claim
for return of the several cases Of
whisky involved.
