ALABAMA MAY ABOLISH
CONVICT LEASING PLAN
Florida Disclosures Expected to In.
fluence Legislature Convening in
Montgomery Today.
By the Associated Press.


MONTGOMERY, Ala, July Ii
Whether Alabama will continue the
leasing of state convicts for four
years more or end the practice is the
one big question which tops all others
in interest as the Alabama legislature
convened today for it's long summer
session.
At the short term in January the
law which provided for abolition OF
the lease system after January /,
1924, was amended to extend the time
four years upon recommendation of
Gov. William w. Brandon. Since that
action popular movement was set
on foot by the Alabama League of
Women Voters to end the convict
leasing at once. and the movement,
according to league leaders, has
gained such momentum that IL would
occasion no surprise If the Legislature
reversed its action and ended the
system at once, or at least before four
years have elapsed.
Spokesman for the league frankly
say that revelations of the Florida
system provoked popular disfavor for
Alabama's leasing practice. and that
the record recently written in the
sister state will have much to do with
action at this time.

CONCRETE STREETS
NOW ARE ASSURED

If all goes as planned, Winnie
mucca is destined to have two
gravel streets replaced by cement
ones in the very near future. Mayor
Haviland and the city council have
succeed in securing the promise of
state and federal authorities that a
change in the road contract be-
tween them and this city will be
made which will permit the cement
ing of Third street from the west
ern end of the cemetery to a point
on East Third where the the Vic
tory highway will turn south to go
under the railroad tracks of the
Southern Pacific, and to permit the
cementing of Bridge street from
Third to the right of way of the
Western Pacific at that railroads
station.
The roadway will be eighteen feet
in width and will take the place of
the proposed eighteen foot gravel
road.
Officials of the Western Pacific
will be approached with the PROPOSE
ton of cementing the right of way
at their station and from there on
a gravel road will lead to the
northern highway at the city limits.

ROBBED, THROAT CUT, LEFT
IN DITCH, RANCHER'S STORY

With two deep gashes in his
throat, his skin blue and shrunken
from being in water for several
hours, David Dondrea, an Italian
rancher living near Reno, staggered
to his home and told a story of
having been beaten by two youthful
robbers, his money taken and his
throat cut and of then being thrown
in the Riverside mill ditch.
Dondrea on his cot at local
hospital told Chief Of Police Kirkley
he was accosted in the rear of the
Riverside mill and remembers put
ting up fight with the men. One
hit him over the head with a club,
he said, and he was slashed with a
knife and hurled into the water.
He regained consciousness and
dragged himself from the ditch near
the Reno brewery, and then walked
several miles to his home on the
north edge of Reno.
He was then taken to the hospital.
Unless infection set in in the
wounds the attending physician de-
clares he will recover.-Reno Jour-
nal.

THIS CITY VISITED
BY FLYING SQUAD

Travelling by auto, five prohibi-
ton officers entered Winnemucca
Friday night and made investiga-
tions into several of Winnemucca's
soft drink parlors, raids being made
at the Overland hotel, the Winnie
mucca hotel, the Gem and the In
dex, the Winnemucca hotel and
the Gem being the only places. that
produced sufficient evidence to
cause arrests.
At the Winnemucca hotel two
barrels of wine and one quart of
whiskey were found, it is claimed
by the officers. and one quart of
whiskey at the Gem. The Over
land hotel and the Index proved
to be abiders of the law, nothing
In the line Of illicit liquor being un-
covered.
Proprietors of the .Winnemucca
hotel, j. Esparza and L. Bermuda,
were arrested and placed under
bonds of $500 each, while d. York,
of the Gem, was. ar
rested and is out on $4,000 bond.
The prohibition officers left this
city as they came, in autos, going
to Lovelock, where they conducted
raids.
An interesting fact in connec-
ton with previous raids at McDer-
mitt was disclosed by the federal
men while they were here. Contrary
to general belief, entry into Nc
Dermitt was not made by way Of
Oregon, but instead the prohibition
agents passed through this city late
At night. Opinion had been stated
that successful raid could not be
conducted in the northern town be-
cause the officers would be clipped
off" by telephone before they could
make the long drive necessary to
reach McDermitt.

NEVADA WOOL MEN
FORM CLIP POOL

The big Nevada wool pool, repre-
senting a departure in cooperative
marketing, is fact.
The first of the shipments o.
nearly 100000 pounds of the Ne
vsda product already assigned tt
the pool began out of Red House
only a day or so ago, the Rene
Journal says.
Thus for the first time in their
history have Nevada wool growers
combined in q manner to avert
the disasters of dumping" their
product onto the markets.
On the other hand, the wool goes
into great federally licensed ware
house in Chicago, for removal only
at such times as the growers see
fit, while the middlemen in the east
ern centers viii be forced, it is
forecast, to offer terms deemed de-
sirable.
An interesting fact in connection
with this pool is that the pooling be-
gins at the top of the industry. The
first, second and third largest sheep
men in the state have entered the
pool.
Among those in it, as told in dis
patches from the growing centers,
are:
John G. Taylor of Lovelock, $780,
900 pounds; Williams Estate COM
pany of Fallon, 175, 200; George B.
Williams of Fallon, $4,000; Joe
Yragui of Winnemucca, 10000;
Marcus Legarra Of Erko, $4,000
pounds, and Joe Aspolch of Gerlach,
10000.
There are doubtless others, as Ira
T. Wright, representative Of the Ma
tional Wool WaIehouse company,
that in question, was still in the field
comforting with the wool growers.
His concern, through its federal
sponsorship, is able to issue to
growers warehouse receipts that per-
NIT of ready discounts. 1t also al
lows the depositors of wool to do
any direct trading they may see fit.
Again, the handling prices quoted to
growers are so nominal that they
appear exceedingly attractive when
the grower remembers the slice of
his profits taken by the middlemen
in Boston.
These large growers who are
versed in the movements of the
market of their product charge that
a powerful coterie of middlemen
this season has attempted to manipu-
ate the market to the great dis
advantage of the producers.
The growers simply have count
cred with their pool.
Offerings by buyers have been al
most 10 cents per- pound under
what the growers deem a just price.
The general market outlook, the
growers say, should call for a brisk
trade in wool. Yet the alleged tao
tics Of the buyers have tended to-
ward discouraging lack of inter-
est in taking over the production of
the wool growers.
