The Public Affairs Committee of the
Ocala Rotary Club has recommended
the establishment of a curb market
for the farmers, where produce may
be sold direct to the consumers, and
the club hah approved the plan and
has named a committee of three, rep
resenting the Rotary Club, Woman's
Club, and the Chamber of Commerce,
to arrange for the market. The men,
bers of the committee are: John L.
Edwards, Rotary Club; Mrs. T. NJ.
Moore. Woman's Club; and w. ID.
earn, Chamber of Commerce.
The recommendation of the Public
Affairs Committee or Rotaries THAT
to start with the country farmers be
allowed to sell their produce, other
than fresh meats, two days in each
week, Tuedays and Fridays, between
the hours of and IL, and park around
the public square, along the curb, on
the court house side, and for the pres
ent probably two sides would do; that
Immediately after IL o'clock of each
Tuesday and Friday, the sales prompt
ly close and the city arrange to clean
up whatever refuse or Objectionable
matter may be left as a result of the
sale; that if this recommendation
be approved of the country people as
also the town people be properly ad-
vised and sales days thoroughly ad-
vertised."
We recommend that to carry out
these arrangements a committee OF
representative citizens be appointed
to go before the city council to recon-
mend that an ordinance be drafted
to meet the necessary requirements
of these weekly sales around the
court house square,
Instead of holding the sales on the
court houe square, however, arrange
ments will probably be made to use
the open space adjoining the Ocala
National Bank The members of the
Public Affairs Committee are George
MacKay, chairman; G. S. Scott and
Ben Rheinauer.

AMERICANS SEE PASSION PLAY
First Public Performances at oberam-'

of 1000.

Oberammergau, Bavaria, May 49,
The first public performance since
1910 of the world-renowned Passion
Play by the highlanders of this BavarI-
an village was given before an audi,
ence of 1000 persons, some of whom
had been present at the dress rehears-
al last week. Fully half of the audi
ence was made up Of Americans,
among them George A. Bucklin, the
consul at Coblenz, and Mrs. Bucklin;
Col. Ezekiel J. Williams Of the Ameri-
can general staff. and Mrs. Williams.
The British delegation was next in
size. The other auditors were Ger
man, Russians and Dutch. Owing to
the steadfast refusal OF the people
of Oberammergau to grant concessions
in connection with the play which
would bring profit to the village, the
hordes of moving-picture men here are
being restricted to the taking of street
scenes.

c. D. P. IN SPLIT
ON TARIFF BILL
Norris of Nebraska Urges a Nom
partisan Measure.
FIGHTS THE M'CUMBER PLAN
Senator Declares Partisanshp Is Par.
ticuarly Noticeable as Evil in Tar
iff LegisIation-Says Both Par
ties Pursue Same Course.

washington, Nay Ex-senator Nor
ris, Republican of Nebraska, appealed
for new tariff measure drafted on a
nonpartisan basis. His action grew
out of the insurgent movement among
Republican senators against the Nc
Cumber bill
Norris charged that partisanship
was lone of the greatest evils in gov
ernment," and should be discarded in
the drafting of tariff legislation. His
appeal was warmly seconded by Demo-
cratic leaders.
Traditional senate policies of GEN.
fury providing that ito the political
victor belongs the tariff -spoils" would
be wiped out if administration leaders
follow Norris suggestion. The McCum-
Der BILL meanwhile, was attacked by
Democrats as "favoring special inter-
ests," while Republicans branded the
opposition as a "filibuster' supported
Z by importers.
Minority Is Excluded.
"Partisanship." said Norris, 'is par
ticularly noticeable as an evil in tariff
legislation. Both parties have pur-
sued the same course. When a tariff
bill is taken up in committee, the mi
nority members are excluded and the
party in control drafts the bill. The
result always is an attempt by lead
ers to line up one party in favor of
the bill and the other party in oppOsi-
ton.
Legislators are moved more to get
partisan advantage than to secure a
fair and honest tariff bill. Such
course is injurious to good legislation.
Best results in legislation can only be
obtained when party spirit is abol-
ished. The answer is that tariff bills
have always been made this way and
it is impossible to make them any
other way. If this doctrine had been
applied during the growth of civiliza-
ton we would still be barbarians If
we can get better legislation by aboli-
ton of partisanship, then partisanship
should be abolished"
Against Biased Testimony.
Norris pointed out that both par
ties united in framing appropriation
bills although divided at all times ON
the items of appropriation. He assert
ed the same course should be pursued
in tariff legislation.
"The information for making the
tariff bill should be gathered by nom
partisan, semi-judicial commission in
stead of building up the bill from the
testimony of biased and interested per-
sons or witnesses who have interests
of a financial nature in the BILL" Nor
ris said. ''We already have machinery
for obtaining this information. All Wa
need now is to have the committee APP
ply it, the same as is done in the franz
ing of other bills. In short, we should
consider tariff bills the same as APP
preparation or other bills
