gus: A condition exists In the city
OF Rock Island and In Rock Island
county which should be known to
Rock Island people. MIX dealers
Of Rock Island almost entirely have
boycotted the farmers living south
and west Of Rock Island and are
selling milk shipped In from dis
tant points for Rock Island con-
sumption. Some farmers feel that
the people Of Rock Island are not
fair to the Rock Island county
farmers in not insisting upon milk
produced in Rock Island county.
inasmuch as milk of better quail
ity can be sold cheaper than is the
imported milk. some OF which
comes from hundreds Of miles
away, and the dealers are paying
higher price for this milk than
the producers Of Rock Island a-e
asking.
Some of the farmers who now
feel aggrieved are attempting to re-
taliate by trading in other cities. ]
know Of one farmer who lives close
to Milan who made trip to Mus
catine few days ago and purchas-
ed large bill OF goods amounting
to over 500, consisting Of drygoods
and groceries. l believe the bust
ness interests of Rock Island should
cooperate with the farmers in-the

ANNIVERSARY OF
CITY CELEBRATED
BY ROTARY CLUB
tspecial Moline service.)


Moline Rotafians yesterday cele-
brated the city's 50th anniversary,
devoting the meeting to talks in
which were noted the changes and
progress that have taken place
since 1872.
Mayor Skinner talked on the de-
velopment of the government,
speaking particularly of the differ
ence between the duties OF the
mayor before and after the intro
duction of the commission form OF
government which prevailed for a
number of years. He declared that
it the old days the Office Of mayor
was considered merely an honor
one and that the city clerk did most
of the work. But with the intro
duction of commission form the
mayor was obliged to transact his
share Of the city's business and
holding the Office became a real
job. John Sundine spoke Of the
passing of familiar landmarks.
+ The Rotarians will contribute to-
ward the proposed pageant Of pro
gres sto be held in September III
commemoration of the city's incor-
poration so years ago. o. E.
Szekely will represent the Rotary
club on the committee that will
have charge Of the celebration.

FORMER ISLANDER
HOLDS HOLLYWOOD
UP AS MODEL TOWN

Walter S. Mckee. a former Rock
Islander, who has been located in
Los Angeles for seven years, was a
visitor in the city today. while en-
route to Aledo to see his mother.
Mr.. Mckee is in the brokerage
business in Los Angeles.
ut is unjust to blaken all the
folks who make their homes in
Hollywood because of the moral
transgressions Of few" said Mr..
Mckee. Hollywood really is a
beautiful spot, with its handsome
homes and splendid people. The
surprising thing to me always has
bean that there aren't more scan
dals in such large colony of the
'atrical people and the mixed popu-
lace attracted by such a tremend-
GUS industry as the movies. Tho
men and women who are in posi-
tons of responsibility in producing
pictures are people who take their
tasks seriously and live lives just
as normal as do the people Of any
other modern business community.
They have their hours of work and
their time for home and social
diversions. Naturally the public
is interested in the movements Of
the movie stars, and when one
does some foolish thing the world
imagines that all others engaged in
the business are just as~bad as the
one who has gone wrong. That is
a great mistake. 1t would be just
as reasonable to say because a ply
cisian had made a moral misstep
that all others of his profession
were equally guilty"

COTTON PRICE NARROW
Cotton Fluctuations for Past Week
at All Times Under Level of
Preceding Week Close.

NEW ORLEANS, La, Dec. a.
Price movements in cotton last week
were not wide and the market had
something OF a reactionary feeling,
being at all times under the level of
the preceding weeks close. This ap-
peared to be due to liquidation OF
the long interest more than TO new
sesling. New operations on either
side were not carried out aggressive
" and in some respects the market
had much of a year-end feeling. At
the lowest the trading months were
10 to 81 points under the close OF
the preceding week with January off
to 24.46 cents a pound. The close
showed net losses of 70 to 76 points,
January closing at 24.55. Taking
the list into consideration and fluc-
tuations were within limits of as TO
70 points. In the spot department
prices lost 81 points on middling
which closed at 2525. This week a
year ago middling closed at 1875.
The spot department was quiet
the week through but most spot
brokers said that this was the re-
suit of limited offerings rather than
because of the lack of demand.
