TEXAS TRUTH.IN.FABRIC BILL
IS VETOED BY GOVERNOR

The results Of the Wyoming
Truth-in-fabric law. now two years
old, were carefully examined by
sheepmen and others interested in
the Texas bill introduced in the
legislature of that state recently.
1t is said that the Texas bill. as
passed by the House of Representa-
tives a short time ago. was pat
termed closely after the law in this
state. However. certain amendments
to the bill were made in the senate
which, according to the sheep and
Goat Growers Magazine" greatly
weakened the bill and brought a
veto from Governor Neff.
Friends OF effective truth-in-febric
legislation offered kilograms from
a number of Wyoming merchants as
proof that such legislation was bene-
ficial not only to the purchasers of
WOODEN garments but to the clothiers
as well.

BEET GROWERS
ARE SIGNING THE
1923 CONTRACT

Beet growers are rapidly signing up
beet acreage in this section.
The controversy between the Great
Western Sugar company and the
sugar beet growers of Sedgwick coun-
ty as represented by the local beet
growers association, which has been
one of the chief topics of discussion
for the past two months or more, has
been settled according to information
given Grit-Advocate reporter Wed
nesday in an interview with Frank
Deich, president of the local organiza-
ton
The present company contract for
1923 will stand, and the growers have
been released by the beet growers
association from any further delay
in signing the 1923 beet contract as
originally submitted by the Great
Western Sugar company. Mr. Deich
stated that no further effort is being
made by the association to keep the
growers from signing up their beet
acreage under the terms of the 1923
contract, and he predicts that a nor
NAL acreage of beets will be grown
in the county this year.
rom SLdHupOlft OF lne business
interests of this section, there is re-
ioicing. With only few exceptions,
the bankers. business and profession
al men of Sedgwick county have been
in utmost sympathy with the beet
growers in their contentious. and yet,
with equally few executions they have
hoped that the situation might
break so that the big established in
dustry of this section would not be
brought to idleness or anything like
it, which was in fair way to result,
except for the agreement of the nego-
tiating parties While not all either
factor has striven for, the result is on
the whole, satisfactory to the general
public.
While the settlement effected be-
tween the sugar company and the
growers involves no additional dol
lars or cents in price, the principle for
which the growers have been contend
ing of collective bargaining has been
fully established. and as the organ
lied growers are federated legally. the
outcome may be much more far
reaching than they now anticpate.
For some weeks since a fair under
standing of the current offer has been
subjected to analysis, there has been
feeling that there was not an ex-
trcmely large spread between the
company and the growers, and that
recognition was the most real element.

Being one of crowd which had
gathered in the center of the street
to witness a public auction sale Of
household goods, Rev. Root, who had
previously been standing talking to
other by-standers, when warned of
the approaching car. in some manner
became confused and instead of step
pig toward the south and out of the
path of the auto, he stepped squarely
in front of the car and before Mrs.
Wilson. the driver, could stop, Rev.

under the auto. Fortunately he was
thrown clear of the axle and wheels,
and he was quickly taken from under
the car by several persons who wit
messed the accident, and rushed to the
office of DIR. J F. Hart. After first
aid was administered the injured man
was taken to his home on West Third
street.
After a thorough examination was
made DIR. ]. F. Hart, the attending
physician announced that Mr.. Roots
condition was not serious, altho he
was sufferig from dislocated ribs and
painful bruises about his head and
body, caused from being thrown to
the ground and doubled up under the
car. He is reported to be recovering
as we'll as may be expected.
The fact that the car was going at
a low rate of speed is perhaps re-
sponsible for the accident not being
