For the first time in history England
is to have genuine American rodeo. Not
since Barnum took his circus over has
there been such an invasion. In addition
to the riding there will be cow-punching
of every description, bull-dogging' and
roping. Therell be Indians and stage
coach hold-ups, and herds of buffalo, and
all the other things that many of the good
people of England believe are everyday
sights on Broadway, New York.
OF course, the sole purpose of the Eng
lish invasion Is not to show the Prince Of
Wales how to ride. That will merely be
one OF the side issues. Tex Austin is

FISH FAMINE PREDICTED
IN ADDRESS BY HOOVER

ATLANTIC CITY, Sep. 1s.--Ad-
dressing the, United States fisheries
association here, Herbert Hoover, sec
rotary Of commerce, urged action
against "blind and reckless" destruc-
ton Of fish and shellfish in inland
waters. He pointed out that salmon
on the Atlantic Coast have disappear
ed as a food supply and they have
diminished one-half on the Pacific
coast. In 40 years, he said, the stur-
geon fisheries of the Great Lakes
have decreased SO per cent. The
shad yield has decreased 70 per cent.
In 20 years the Chesapeake oyster
fisheries output has decreased 80 per
cent.
Mr.. Hoover pointed out that the
waters of the ocean and inland waters
are not an inexhaustible supply for
the present and for all future time.
Nothing is inexhaustible when
matched against the mechanical ge-
MUS of man." he said.

UNION MEN FIND Law
TO FIGHT PRISON GOODS

BY International Labor News Service
INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Sept. 1s.-
The union label committee of the
American Federation Of Labor in
charge of the campaign to push union
label products, has discovered that a
statute enacted by the Indiana as
sembly in 1901 is a good weapon to
fight prison-made goods in this state.
The law provides that all goods
made in prisons must bear the label,
'sprison-made," if offered for sale
within the confines of the state. A
further provision requires payment Of
a license fee of 500 by a merchant
who sells prison-made goods.
The committee reported that it had
found prison-made goods on sale. in
indianapolis minus the label as re-
quired by law. Dealers who have no
license or who sell unlabelled prison
products viii be prosecuted, it was
said. It was pointed out by the COM
mittee that the Indiana law if en-
forced will prohibit prison-made ship
ments to Indiana from other prison
factories in the United States.

Tor progressive political action, in

From California J. H. Wasserburg-

We are going to organize county
committees in all Of the southern ter
ritory. There are at least 80 La Fol-

Encouraging News from South
La Toilette sentiment is strong in

der that the Kansas Federation of
Non-Partisan Voters, which is labor's
political body, is working with Rod
ney Edward, state chairman of the
La Toilette Wheeler organization, to

that democrats and MeAdoo support

THE FORTY MILL
LIMIT TAX BILL
CONTINUED from Page one)

Continued from Page One)
mill levy to $4,000 on an 1S-mill
levy to be finally determined at the
October election and not before. At
the time Of making the budget in
August this board could not know its
prospective income, which might go
as low as $4,000 or under the most
favorable circumstances might reach
its present total. How would this
board proceed in making its bud
get? What would it do if the 8-mill
special failed to carry at the October
election, at which time special levy
would also be submitted for town and
another for county purposes? An
uncertainty of this kind would be
general among the 2400 school dis
tricts of the state and would put the
school business on very unstable
financial basis.
While this financial situation is diff
ficult to describe fully in brief ar
ticle nevertheless it constitutes the
chief objection ito this measure and
deserves from each voter clear un-
derstanding Of its effects upon educa-
ton. Intelligent budget making de-
ponds upon early and definite infor-
nation as to income, which could not
be secured under this law.
Points Against Measure
Initiative No. so seriously affects
public education for these reasons:
It's effect upon education were not
considered in its formulation.
1t destroys the equalizing effect OF
our state school support.
It lessons county school support.
Each school district must fully
support its own schools or do with
out.
1t ieopardizes the maintenance Of
the University, the State College and
the State Normal schools.
It places the special elections toe
late for practical business usage.
It makes uncertainty and indefinite
ness the two outstanding features OF
the school business.
1t forces retrenchment during the
school term long after contracts have
been approved and after school activ-
tiles have been arranged.
1t gives minority the determining
voice in school expenditures.
It removes one-third of the present
revenues for governmental activities
Including the schools.
It creates deficiency Of from 49,
OOO, 900 to s1O,OOO.0OO in the fund.

leducational institutions.

1t does not provide any new tax to

It puts an almost impossible task
up to the next legislature whose hur-
ried solution, good or bad, must stand
