tricts already represented by drys.

Five SIeuths to
Keep Students Dry
Five Additional State Prohibition Oil
Gals Named to Watch Summer
Session at u. of w.

Madison, Wis. Five state prohibit
ton deputies have been assigned to
keep the University of Wisconsin dry
this summer.
The additional men added to the
state force will devote all their time
to keeping the state capital and site
of the state university bone dry during
the summer months, Herman Satch-
jen, commissioner of prohibition, an
nounced. Extensive plans have been
laid to stem the annual summer flow
of Illicit booze into Dane county.
Students at the University of Wis
consin summer session and tourists
visiting Madison are the principal
customers of bootleggers who migrate
to Dane county after winters bust
ness in larger cities, it was stated.
Laxity and intemperance on the part
of students results because most of
them are here only temporarily and
are not sufficiently concerned over
jurisdiction of university authorities,
Satchjen said.
Action of Satchjen follows resolu-
lions by county supervisors to con-
sign violators of the Severson act to
the Milwaukee house of correction if
they are sentenced to more than so
days. Violators who drew Jail SEN
fences were formerly lodged in the
county Jail, and the new arrangement
will bring more severe penalties, it
was believed.

LAFOLLETTE PLANKS
ARE MADE PUBLIC
Little Bob" Gives Out Demands to Be
Made Upon Republicans
by Insurgents.

Cleveland - Republican insurgents
acting through the Wisconsin delega-
ton, will ask the Republican national
convention to formally condemn the
official acts of Harry M. Daugherty,
as attorney general, and Albert B. Fall
as secretary of the Interior
This is disclosed in an official copy
of the insurgent platform made public
today by Robert M. LaFollette, Jr.,
son of the Wisconsin senator, in the
name of the Wisconsin delegation.
The statement says further that
Daugherty and Fall "be forever de-
barred from holding any position OF
honor or trust within the gift of eith-
er of the Republican party or of any
future Republican administration"
The insurgents also would have Pres
ident Coolidge summon congress into
extraordinary session on Monday. July
7th, 1924, for consideration of emer-
gency legislation for relief of agricul-
ture; to provide funds for payment,
of soldiers bonus; for consideration
of the Howell Barley bill for the
settlement Of disputes between carriers
and employees; for amendment of the
rate making section of the transpor-
tation act Cooking toward the reduc-
ton Of extortionate RAILROAD rates."
and for reclamation relief legislation
extending the time of payment TO
farmers on government reclamation
projects.
It is further declared the conven-
ton system of nominating presidential
and vice presidential candidates has
failed" and the senate and house MEM
bers should be urged to "initiate and
support such constitutional amendment
and legislation as may be necessary
to provide for direct nomination and
election by the people of the United
States of candidates for president and
vice president"
The convention will be asked by the
insurgents to extend its congratula-
tions to 81 Republican senators and
eli Republican representatives for dis
play Of courage and independence in
"voting for the tax bill enacted into
law by both houses of congress and
signed by the president, as a substi-
tute for the Mellon plan"
In this connection request is made
for Legislation to give "full and COM
plete publicity on tax returns" and for
''pledge to the American people that
neither the Mellon plan, nor any ether
tax bill providing for unwarranted re-
ductions in super-taxes Of multi-mil-
lionaires and profiteering corporations
shall receive the support of the Re-
publican party in any future session
of the congress"
Another plank proposed by the Wis
consin delegation in it's statement pro-
vides that neither the Republican ma
tional committee nor the Republican
congressional or senatorial campaign
committee, in the presidential and con-
gressional campaigns of 1924, "shall
accept any contribution in any amount
whats oever, from any individual, or
from any individual connected in any
way with any corporation, subject to
prosecution as a trust or monopoly or
other illegal combination or having
any interest in oil, coal, timber or 9TH
err natural resources found on the pub
lie domain"

Cities May Establish
Gasoline Stations

Madison, Wis.-Cities in Wisconsin
can establish gasoline sales stations
under the state fuel law, Attorney
General Herman L. Ekern ruled in an
opinion directed to Edward Nordman,
commissioner of markets, today.
A state statute provides incorporat-
ed cities can engage in the business
of selling fuel by a three-fourths vote
of the city council, Ekern pointed out.
The attorney general CONSTITUTES the
wording of the statute to include gaso-
line also.
Municipalities other than cities can
not engage in the business, however,
Ekern said.
Request for the opinion on legality
Of city, sale of gasoline followed re-
quests from several Wisconsin cities

Sale of Communication Rail
way Tickets is Started
Again Today.
ORDER is RESCINDED
Interstate Commerce Commits
sion Holds Decision Does Not
Touch Tickets Here.

il new lease Of life was given to
the sale of the so-called bearer com
mutation railway tickets for rides
between Kerosha and Chicago when the
ban placed on their sale several days
ago by a representative of the Inter
state Commerce commission, was lifted
as a result of complaints filed by deal
ers in the tickets with the commission
proper. Today dealers, who on Nom
day were warned that the sale of the
tickets must be halted and that
further dealing in them would sub
ject both dealer and purchaser to a
fine of $4,000, resumed the sale, rely
ing on statements from members of
the commission that the business
would not be interfered with and that
no arrests would follow.
On last Monday, W. L. Lloyd, a
special representative of the Inter-
state Commerce commission, came to
Kenosha to investigate complaint
.made against one dealer.
Clamps Down the Lid.
Some one passenger, whose name
had not been revealed, had filed com
plant with the commission that he or
she had paid $1.8S for ticket to
Chicago, being the price for single
ride, while another person had Sc
cured bearer ticket at cost of
$1.40. There is law that no person
may be sold ticket for travel for
the same distance and under the same
conditions at price lower than is
charged for anyone else. Acting on
this rule it was ordered here that
traffic in the communication tickets be
halted at once.
The order stirred up hornets nest
in Kenosha 1t struck at historic
privilege which Kenosha has had for
years and dealers and purchasers alike
protested against the action.
Get Order Rescinded.
Several of the dealers have been in
Chicago and have been in conference
with Honorable John j. Esch and At
torney John Hickey, representing the
Interstate commerce commission. The
deslers were advised to continue the
selling of the ten ride bearer tickets
t.n the decision of these men and Mr.
Lloyd was wired of their action. 1t
was stated that the complaint prob
ably referred to monthly tickets and
that certainly no ban on the sale of
the tickets should have been ordered
until a more thorough Investigation had
been carried on by the commission.
The lifting of the ban will be well
coined in Kenosha.

to Attend.
HELD IN MILWAUKEE

The fifth annual reunion of the S2nd
Cred Arrow division will be held in
Milwaukee, Wisconsin, Saturday, Sun
day and Monday, September 18th, 14thi

of that fighting Division will make
their plans now so that they will be
able to meet the "old gang" in Mil
waukee this fall.

headquarters in Milwaukee from Ma
jor General William G.. Ham who
commanded this division in action
that General John j. Pershing, COM
mander-in- chief of the army has &C
cepted the invitation of the commit
tee to be the principal speaker at the

up at once his "0Dn shirt and the
old overseas "chapead" for this will
be the uniform for the monster mill

The fact that the 32nd Division re-
union is being held three days prior

enable many boys from distant points
to make both conventions in one grand
trip at reduced railroad fare.

a big delegation from Kenosha to be
