WANTS SIXTY
POUND WHEAT TEST
Continued from first pager

Concerning the hearing in Spo-
kane Saturday the Sunday Spokes-
man-Review had the following:
That the test weight of wheat
under the federal grade rules should
be reduced to So pounds was the
sentiment of the majority of the / 90
or more farmers, millers and grain
men of the Inland Empire who met
/ yesterday in the chamber of COM
merce assembly room at the request
/ of the department of agriculture to
present their views on the federal
wheat grades.
Determined opposition to the low
ering of the grade requirements was
voiced by Walter ]. Robinson, man
| ager Of the Washington-Idaho Wheat
Growers association. supported by J.
| j. Grief of Uniontown and H. H.
Curtis Of Pullman. ''The price will
drop with the lowering of the grade
and the farmer will get less for his
wheat" cOntended Mr.. Robinson.
! Fully 70 per cent of the wheat tests
SIS per cent or better. Either there
will have to be a system of premiums
for wheat better than No. /, just as
! there are discounts for inferior
grades, or the many farmers whose
wheat tests 50 and 60 pounds will
lose"
1t was contended that as the bulk
of wheat of fair average quality tests
SIS pounds, that should be No
wheat and not higher grade stuff
The motion favoring this reduction
was passed by an Overwhelming ma
iority,
Other recommendations to be
made to the secretary of agriculture
are that the sub-class of Red Walla
should be abolished and Red West
ern substituted, with the test raised
to 60 pounds, also that a class be
established for northern spring, to
test SO pounds and carry 81 per cent
of dark, hard and yitreous berries,
and be known as dark hard northern
fancy Common white and white
club wheat would be known as
white wheat and subdivided into
hard, soft and western white wheats.
The results of Yesterdays meet
ing taken with that of similar gath
erings in other parts OF the country,
will be used by Secretary Wallace of
the department of agriculture to ar
rive at what the farmers of the coun-
try want in the way of changes in
wheat grade regulations E. L.

BEES SETTLE ON
HEAD OF LEXING-
TON TRAFFIC POLICEMAN

Lexington, KY, June S.-Police-
man William Kidron, member of
the traffic squal, has been a men,
ber of the police force for three
years and has made reputation as
cool-headed and unhesitating Off
Ger in emergencies, but today Kid
ron was "stumped." He admits it.
While Kidron was on duty at the
Main and Limestone Street sema-
phore he was suddenly confronted
by what threatened to be serious
emergency.
The threat" continued for more
than twenty minutes and while the
policeman was contempletig wheth-
er to use his club, his gun or fists,
or call the patrol wagon. the fly
ing squad" or the fire department
if the "aggressors' undertook to
carry out their threat, the emer-
gency suddenly ceased to exist with
out any of these agencies being
called into action.
The cause of the officers pre-
dicament was a wandering swarm
of bees that gently but persistently
tried to "settle" on the semaphore,
the officers head. back, neck and
arms. The bees appeared quite
suddenly while a street car was TAX,
ing on passengers and began swarm
ing around the officers head and
over the car tracks. all around him.
They attempted to alight on his
arms repeatedly and did not offer
any "stinging" protest when he
brushed them away, passing street
cars and automobiles and the turn
ing semaphore seemed to confuse the
bees and after about twenty minutes
they decided they had hit the wrong
landing field and betook themselves
down West Main Street to the cor
ner of the Hay Hardware Company
building.

the application of the Transports
ton Act to themselves. The Board
forbade the roads to "farm out" or
let contracts to outside concerns for
repairing of equipment, when that
work could be done in the roads
own shops. The Erie Railway and
the Pennsylvania Railway deliberate
~ and in the face of such an order
let contracts to outside concerns
for just such purposes, and to en-
deavor to evade the action of the
Transportation Act and the decis-
ions Of the Labor Board. In one
case, Horse Manure Co. in New
Jersey was given a contract to re-
pair locomotives. Can you see any
connection whatever between loco
motive and a concern that deals in
Horse Manure? When the board
censured the Penn Ry. for the man.
her in which it had refused to deal
with the representatives of the en-
nloyees, and was about to make its
criticism public, the Penn. rushed
into Federal Court and secured an
injunction against the Labor Board
to prevent the public from knowing
what it had done and why it had
been done. Why doesn't the APP
plication of the Transportation Act
apply to the railroads as we'll as to
the men who work for them? The
roads flout the DECISIONS of the
Labor Board whenever they chose,
yet if we take ballot on some
grevience, and find our membership
is dissatisfied with decision of the
Board, we are termed OUTLAWS"
and all the condemnation of the
country is heaped upon us. The
roads announced reduction in pay
twice last year without any auth
ority from the Board. If we an
nounce "a strike the roads and the
Board call us Outlaws" and say we
are striking against the government.
Let the decisions of the Board be as
binding on the roads as upon the
employees, or let it be abolished
entiely. To make it have the rights
to do this it must be given the pow
ars of the courts, and we have seen
what that causes. We nave iv-
ing example of it in this state, and
what good has come OF it? We have
strikes just the same as they are
having every place else.
Mr. T. Dewitt Cuyler at the be-
ginning of this strike made state
ment in which he said: "The Labor
Board is creation of the Govern
.ment, the men are not striking
against the roads but against the
Government" In other words he
wanted the public to think that We
are defying the Government, an act
which in his opinion should entitle
rs all to a speedy trip to some Fed
eral Institution and long stay there
in. But letter sent to all strik-
ing employees of the Rock Island
Railway by it's president, ]. E. Cor
man, acknowledges that the Labor
Board gives any employee who feels
he has grevience against a decis-
ion of the Board, the right to cease
work if he sees fit, as protest
against such decision. Mr.. Cor
