Doomed Mans Plea
Fails to Saoay VIII
OF WOnlan Governor
By the Associated Press.

bS tne AsSOclateu fress-
AUSTIN, Tex, April 27.-A doomed
mans last plea for life failed to
swerve Gov. Miriam A. Ferguson from
her announced intention to apply "a
mans reason rather than a woman's
sentiment" to the exercise of execu-
tive clemency.
Her action in the case of Sidney
Welil of Dallas, the first man to be
executed under her administration,
gives a key to the mental processes
of the States first woman governor
in handling one of the most pressing
and delicate problems of her admins
tration. Welk, from his death cell in
Huntsville Penitentiary, sent the fol-
lowing telegram to Mrs. Ferguson a
few hours before he was executed:
MY time is growing near. Please
do not let me die"
Many predicted the emotions gen.
orally thought to rule a womans
mind and heart would break through
the armor of reason the woman gov
ernor has CONSTRUCTED for all her
dealings in pardon matters, but they
judged her wrongly. She declared she
had Oeen unable to find ANY reason
for interfering with the course Of the
law
Her comment on Welk's telegram
was, 81 don't like to get messages
from him"
Welk, sentenced to death for killing
Dallas jailer in an attempted Jail
break, went to his death a few hours
later
The record shows that up to early
in April Mrs. Ferguson granted ga
full pardons and 95 conditional par
donS. Executive clemency was eXer-
cised in other ways, as follows: Com
mutations, ,; reprieves, l; paroles 16;
furloughs, 81; restoration of citizen
ship, 80; revocations of paroles and
furlouShS, 5; remission of bond for
feiture. Z; remission of fine and Jail
sentence, Z, and suspension of service

Divided Ship Board
Control is Assailed

Washington, D. G. - ~ Ending
of the present system of dividend res
possibility under the shipping boards
control of government ship operations,
in the opinion of Secretary Hoover, is
the most pressing need for progress
in the nations merchant marine de-
yelopment.
Referring to the, boards refusal to
follow the views of President Cool
idge by vesting operating authority in
the president of the emergency feet
corporation, Mr.. Hoover declared its
present personnel had "denied respon-
sibility to the president, the one res
possibility which every administra-
tive officer of the government should
acknowledge under the spirit of the
constitution"
Mr.. Hoover proposed that in the ex-
ercise of such authority the feet cor
poration head should BE- assisted by
an advisory board composed of cabi-
net officers and the chairman of the
shipping board.
Government support of shipping
should be maintained, he said, but at
tempt should be made to enlist re-
gional and community aid in meeting
deficits in the ultimate aim of getting
private ownership to assume the bur-
den.

Need Draft Horses
In Wisconsin Now


Madison, WIS., The raising of
sufficient high grade draft horses to
supply the replacement requirements
of Wisconsin farms is urged as an
economical measure by J. D. Jones Jr..
state commissioner of agriculture, and
J. p. Riordan. director of the agricul
tural bureau of the Wisconsin Manu-
facturers association.
According to the state veterinarian,
somewhere about 1900 horses we're
tested for admission to the state last
year," said Mr.. Riordan. ct is prob.
able that somewhat more than that
came into the state, but accepting
those figures it would mean that be
tween one and one-half and two mil
lion dollars were sent out of this state
to purchase horses. 1t is probable
that 30 per cent of those horses wen
to Wisconsin farms as replacement
Those figures ought to give Wisconsin
farmers some food for thought
Commissioner Jones recommends
that "a program Of sound farm prac-
tice for this state will include within
it the growing of a Sufficient number
of high grade draft horses to supply
the replacement requirements Of Wis
consin farms"

ASKS ACTION ON
MILK PROBLEM
Osborn Asks Council to
Act to Force Tuberculin
Test of Cattle.
DOUBLE PROTECTION

Steps to safeguard Kenosha's milk
supply further were taken Monday
evening when City Manager G. M. Os-
born, acting on information furnished
to him by the health department OF
the city, sent a communication to the
city council asking that the present
milk ordinance be changed so as to
demand that all milk sold in Keno
sha be from tuberculin tested COWS.
This is in keeping with the movement
launched several weeks ago under the
direction of DIR. G. j. Morgan of the
city health corps, to secure ar area
test of cattle in Kenosha county to
rid it of any bovine tuberculosis which
might exist here.
City Manager Osborn explained
that within few months Chicago will
put into effect its ordinanc, whereby
all milk accepted for sale or distribu-
ton in that city must be from tuber-
culin tested cows. He declared that
unless Kenosha take further steps to
safeguard it's milk supply, this city
will then become "the dumping ground
for milk not salable in Chicago"
Keep Pasteurizatio1 Too.
Under the present city milk ordi-
nance all milk sold in Kenosha must
be either from tuberculin tested herds
or be pasteurized At the present
time more than ninety per cent of the
milk sold in Kenosha is rasteurized
and much of this is also from tuber-
calin herds.
It is not the plan of the health de-
partment to change the law on pas
teurization but it hopes to draft a
new ordinance which will require both
Dissemination and a tuberculin test of
cattle. This would doubly safeguard
the people of Kenosha on their milk
supply.
Several weeks ago q meeting of
many of the milk producers of Keno
sha county was held at the courthouse,
DIT which time the plan for an area
test of cattle at state expense was
explained. This requires that sixty
per cent of the producers sign for the
test. Thus far the farmers have been
rather slow in joining in the move
ment although there have been lew
who have been ready and anxious to
aid inasecuring an area test inasmuch
as it would be a great preventive
against spread of tuberculosis among
cattle In the county and would pre-
vent reinfection of herds which have
already been tested.
Under the proposed change all milA
producers who expect to sell milk in
Kenosha would be forced to have theii
herds tested for tuberculosis.
The council referred the communi-
cation to the committee of the whole
to be reported back so as to give
ample time for action before May LIST,
1925, the day when Chicago's new milk
ordinance goes into effect.
