Chicago, Jan. 28.-Beaten in either
the legislatures or by referendum
in Is stttes, the child labor amend
ment to the Federal constitution
virtually has been defeated.
The adverse action of the 13 has
rendered impossible the necessary
ratification by three fourths of the
az states, unless some of the legis-
latures opposed to ratification vote
to reconsider. So far no move in
that direction has been made.
Sixteen states have considered the
congressional proposal to amend
the constitution SO Congress might
legislate in regard to employment
Of children under 1s years of age.
One or both houses of the legisla-
lures rejected the amendment in
North and South Carolina, Georgia,
Louisiana. Texas, Oklahoma, North
and South Dakota, Kansas, Ohio,
Washington and Delaware.
In Massachusetts the proposed
amendment was rejected by refer
endum vote last November. In
Washington the state senate has
sent the house a bill which would
submit Endorsement to the people in
1925. The Senate of Wyoming has
voted to postpone indefinitely a
resolution of ratification.
California and Arkansas are the
only states favoring the proposal.

STONE APPEARS

Washington, Jan. 28.-Attor-
ncy- General Stone told the SEN
ate Judiciary committee today
that the Justice department was
fully determined to go ahead
with its new case here against
Senator Wheeler of Montana.
The Attorney General said the
proceedings here involved a case
of conspiracy to defraud the
governments out Of oil and min
eral lands through the validating
of permits held by the Gordon
Campbell Syndicate.
Numerous covert acts" the At
torney-General said, had been
committed in the District of
Columbia and he added that the
evidence could not be reviewed
without giving the impression
of a possible connection by Sen
ator Wheeler with these acts.
"The case could not be sub
mitted to the grand jury with
out developing Senator Wheel
er's connection" he said.
Because of this, he had di-
rected that "in all fairness" Mr..
Wheeler should be given an OPP
portunity to explain before the
grand jury.

Opposition to the Goth amendment
to the constitution of the United
States, giving Congress power ia
prohibit labor of persons under 1s
years old, transcends factional or
party lines in North Dakota. When
the North Dakota State Senate late
yesterday voted, 32 to II, against
ratification, many Nonpartisans vo-
ted to kill the amendment, in spite
of the fact that it is plank in the
League platform. Many Senator's, it
became known, became convinced
they should act against the measure
in the last two weeks, following in.
tensivc study and public hearings.
On roll call the senators voted as
follows:
For notifications: Babcock. Bakken
Benson, Frederickson, Hjelmstad
Magnuson, Ingerson, Marshall. Nc.

Party Lines Broken
Voting to kill the amendment were
23 Independents and nine Nonparti-
sans, while two Independents and Is
Nonpartisans voted for ratification
There was a plank in the league
platform calling for ratification.
While the vote destroys any posi-
bility of the passage of the amend
ment at the present legislative ses-
sion, there is nothing to prevent its
being taken up at the next session
if it has not yet been ratified by
o-thirds of the states by that
time.
On account of the long debate

"A political issue which will
be the subject of future de-
bate may have arisen out Of
the action of the state house
of representatives late yes
terday afternoon in voting to
accept a majority committee
report recommending the ap-
pointment of a committee of
five to conduct an investiga-
ton of the Highway Commits
sion. The committee would
be empowered to hire attor-
neys and take other neces-
sary steps in the probe.
i The, charges of the Inde-
pendents are that the investi-
cation is purely political, that
it is being held in spite OF
Governor Sorlie's injunction
against political investiga-
tions, and that by their action
the Nonpartisans have taken
the first step in breaking the
harmony that has existed in
the North Dakota legislature.
Speaker B. C. Larkin said
that he probably would be
ready to name the investigat
ing committee sometime to-
day. The resolution is ex.
pected to be finally passed
this afternoon. The test
came yesterday afternoon
when the House by a vote of
81 to Sd, with two Nonparti-
sans absent, voted to accept
the report recommending the
probe. One Nonpartisan,
Representative Helbling of
Morton county, voted against
the investigation.

affairs committee this morning to

Cass county, "They've had three or
four days to bring in charges against
the Highway Commission. Not a
single bit of evidence tending to
show dishonesty, nonfeasance or NAL
feasance was brought before the
committee.
ut must be apparent to everyone
that any investigation ordered here
will be purely POLITICAL" continued
Mr.. Twichell. "Tkings have been
going along in this house harmoni-
ously. This matter would throw
things back to the bitterness of two
years ago. want to see harmony

the laws the people need.
"Arent we here to do the best
thing for the state of North Da-
kota?" asked Rep. Twichell.
"Rep. Vogel. Mclean county, Non
partisan league leader" answered
Mr.. Twichell.
Refers to 1921

investigation was pulled off that was
nothing but political investiga-
tion," said Mr.. Vogel. "The gentle
man from Cass voted to pay $4,000
for political audit.
~ want to say this is not poll
tical matter in any sense of the
word. You have a department here

determine how it shall proceed with

much money shall be spent in it.

May Wheat Now Highest 1t
Has Been Since 1868, Ex-
cepting the War Period

Chicago, Jan. 28.-(By the
A. P)-May wheat today
went above the $500 mark
shortly after the opening of
the board of trade session.
General buying by commits
sion houses took place after
the opening and absorbed
profit : taking sales which
sent initial values upward.
Initial quotations on May
were $1.9912 to $500 or a
gain of IA to IS cents over
yesterdays finish. European
news continued bullish today,
and with increased buying
May went fractionally above
the $500 mark, the outside
figure made during the
Hutchinson deal of 1888.
With the exception of 1916
81 the price attained during
the early dealings today was
the highest since 1868, when
wheat for immediate delivery
sold at $2.20 in November.
Immense trading in wheat con-
tinued with the same consistent run
of buying orders which have been
so much in evidence since the open
ing. An hour and a half after the
market opened, May was up around
cents over yesterdays finish. Pro-
fit-taking on big scale was alb
sorbed readily.
Wheat continued its upward trend
with persistent buying on all dips
below $2O4A, which tended to re-
strict fluctuation to some extent. May
touched $2.O5N, a new high price
record, the market slightly eased off
with the close showing an advance
of 21s cents to SIS cents with May
at $2.O4A to $2.05 and July at $1.73

The accounts of the incident are
