HOUSE PASSES
FARM AID BILLS
Federal Assistance Voted For All
Agricultural Experiment
Stations.

hington-Although the house
moved swiftly to carry out at least
some of the recommendations of the
presidents agricultural commission,
senate leaders still were doubtful that
much if any of this legislation could
be enacted at this session.
With practically no discussion and
without record votes, the house put
through the Strong bill, designed pri-
marily to aid cattle raisers, and the
Purnell measure, granting federal aid
to agricultural experimental stations.
At the same time, Chairman Hau-
gen of the house agriculture commit
tee conferred with committeeman and
members of the presidents commits
sion with reference to the drafting of
bill embodying it's recommendations
for government aid in the co-opera-
tive marketing movement.
There is wide difference of opin-
ion among the friends of the farmers
as to just what shape legislation
should take Besides the proposals
from the commission, several other
measures, notably the Norris-Sinclair
and the modified McNary-Haugen
bills, have their staunch supporters
in the senate.

BUS CONTROL PLANNED
Delegates From Various Com.
munities Suggest Control by
Warehouse Commission.

st. Paula dozen suggestions for
invoking strict regulation of the bus
business in Minnesota were offered to
the senate committee on railroads at
hearing at which delegates repre-
senting various communities in the
state spoke.
Among the suggestions were:
Control of bus transportation by the
railroad and warehouse commission.
Requiring bus companies to COM
pete on even terms with the railroads
so that the railroads will not have to
meet difficult and unjust competition.
Avoid paralleling railroad and bus
lines, situation which means only
added expense to the public.
Buses should pay tax large
enough to cover The wear and tear
they cause to highways. One speaker
suggested that this tax money be ap.
portioned to counties through which
bus lines pass.
Have railroad and warehouse com
mission fix rates from which the bus
operators cannot deviate.
Grant permits to operate busses
only where it can be shown that a
public necessity would be fulfilled.
Require liability protection so that
bus companies would be financially
able to pay court judgments the same
as railroads.

Spoken From the Soul

Nick was the grizZle-headed facto-
tum of an assembly room in a certain
southern town. This story, which has
to do with him, possesses one merit il
it possesses none other-it has the
merit of being true.
According to local gossip Nick was
sorely henpecked man. 1t was said
that when displeased with him Aunt
Effie, mis- mastodonic wife, had way
of tying his hands behind him and
then correcting him with a bed Stat.
Sometimes she corrected him so thor
oughly that he limped for week af-
terward and sat down only on cush-
toned chairs If there were no cush-
toned Chairs handy he preferred to
stand.
Yet Nick bore the secret of his do
nestle tragedy bravely. He never
swore out warrant for Effie; never
publicly complained of the roughness
of her disciplinary methods.
But. as the saying goes, the worm
will turn. although why it should turn,
seeing that worm is the same on
both sides, no one knows. Nick didn't
exactly turn, but one time he did bare
his inner convictions without exactly
going into details.
Some ladies were decorating the as
sembly rooms for wedding reception
which was to follow the ceremony at
the brides home and Nick was helping
them.
$50 they's fixin' to have mother
marriage. is they?" said Nick, half TO
himself as he unraveled an armfu of
southern smilax "Well, seems lax
folks will keep on gettin' married. =
He fetched soft. pensive sigh under
his breath.
One of the ladies overheard him.
She knew something of the life Nick
was said to lead in the privacy of his
home. Mischief led her TO speak.
"Why, Uncle Nick" she said, :"you

INTERIM REPORT
BILL INTRODUCED
House and Senate Measures
Embody All Essentials OF
Committee Plan.

st. Paul-Incorporating the recon-
mendations of the interim committee
for the reorganization of the state
government, the bill making these
changes effective was introduced in
both branches of the Minnesota leg
islature.
''This reorganization plan clothes
the governor with no additional pow
ers over state activities than at
present save in the matter of expen-
ditures where his control will be alb
solute," Governor Christianson said.
The bill which closely follows the
lines of the report but with several
minor changes was introduced in the
house by Representatives W. l. Nor
ton, o. K. Dahle and ]. B. Gislason
and in the senate by Senator Claud
Mackenzie.
The bill does not include any out
standing changes of the interim com
mittee report, which recommends
that government activities be placed
in the hands of 10 departments, the
heads of which are to be appointed
by the governor and an ex-officic
board to be known as the executive
council.
The 10 departments recommended
in the report are: Departments OF
administration and finance; agricul
ture; highways; education; health
commerce; labor and industry; con
servation; welfare, and taxation. The
bill does not include any mention OF
the railroad and warehouse commits
sion, as this department remains un
changed.
The bill also provides that the law
become effective July l, next.
Under provisions of the bill rura
credits department would be placed
under the department of commerce
composed of the commissioners oil
banks, insurance and securities. On
all questions Of Quasi-judicial ma
ture the board will act as a whole
This includes the issuance of certifi
Gates for sale of stocks, licensing OF
insurance companies and issuance Of
charters for new banks.
Such changes are made in the bill
as compared with the report as would
permit the legalization of the depart
ment combinations.

WOULD REDUCE LEGISLATURE
Opponents Say Urban Populace Would
Benefit BY Proposal.

st. Paul-City and country members
of the house of representatives clashed
on the question of whether the mem
bership of the legislature should be
reduced, or at least limited to prevent
further growth. The country members
said cutting down the size of the legis-
lature would give the cities an advan-
tage. The city members said it would
not. The country members won.
The debate was prompted by bill
of Representative John B. Hompe's
which called for constitutional
amendment to limit the house to 20
members and the senate to 40 mem
bers, the state to be re-apportioned af-
ter adoption of the amendment. The
elections committee returned report
to kill the bill, but Mr.. Hompe and
Representative F. A. Green and F. H.
Holiday sent in a minority report re-
commenting the bill for passage. The
majority report was upheld by a vote
of "a to 81.

Prevent Colds and Roup

The air in the poultry house must
be kept dry to prevent colds and roup.
Ventilation will do this and the colder
the air the more ventilation is re-
quired. Hens need more pure air in
proportion to their weight than any
other farm animal. Sunlight is also
great purifier and induces activity
and health. That is why 1t is always
best to face the poultry house south.
This assures the greatest possible
