WRIGLEY MAY
SPONSOR new
OCEAN DERBY
Proposal to Have Second $685.
900 Swim For Women Only
Taken Under Amusement

Los Angeles, Jan: 18-R)- That
William Wriglcy, Jf., Chicago manu-
facturer, may sponsor another SIS 900
Catalina channel swim such as that
of last Saturday, except that the con-
testants would be exclusively women,
became a possibility today following
the announcemnt that the proposal
was under advisement.
The announcement was made last
night by Oscar Rcichow, business
manager of the Los Angeles baseball
club, which, is owned by Wrigley.
Reichow, who was Wrigley's chief
lieutenant in Saturdays event, said
if another contest is fostercd, it
would be held some time this sum-
mer and would provide $4,000 for
three prizes.
The recent deep sea derby, which
was won by l7-year-old George
Young of Torotoo, created new crop
Of professional swimmers, for virtu-
ally all Of the lO2 entries were anna
teurs before undertaking the feat.
Entrance in the prize competition,
however, disqualified them for fur
ther amateur swimming.
For Young. who, alone Of the large
field successfully padded across the
2-mile passage, it meant the loss Of
his prixed standing as = Canadian
amateur. But also 1t. meant net
profit Of $4,000. He had contract
with Henry O'Byrne, his trainer and
manager, giving the latter 40 per
gent Of his winnings. Young, however,
has answered the call of the vaude-
vile stage and, it 10 aid, will real
ize $1,000 night for . brief appear

PROHIBITION
AT GATHERING
Discussion Of Heart Disease
and Cancer Gives Way to
Dry Subject

Washington, Jan. lS.-[P)-Heart
disease and cancer have given way
temporarily to prohibition in discus
sions here at the meeting of the
American College Of Surgeons.
Addressing the annual banquet of
the organization hast night, DR..
George David Stewart. its president
elect, declared alcohol was a most ex-
eellent drug which he wished the
Justices OF the supreme cour. could
be made to believe.
Russia went dry in 1885, he said,
''and then went crazy in 1917 He
added that congress, in passing the
18th amendment, should have passed
another law to prevent the people
from eating certain kinds OF food.
DR.. Charles Mayo, world famous
surgeon, who went to the meeting
prepared to speak on economies in
medicine. cast his theme aside to aid
his word on the dry law. He said he
favored prohibition, but was mo
bigot." He facetiously remarked that
he would leave the economic situation
to be threshed out by President Cool
;dge and Will Rogers.
The Rev. c. B. Moulinier, president
'cf the Catholic Hospital association,
told the surgeons that he had sun
consciously" broken the prohibition
law, but only on physicians pre-
scription.

his arrival here today from Chicago,
Frank l.. Smith, Senator-designate
from Illinois, decided to defer until

their wishes, he decided not to appear
in the senate at noon today, as had
been his original intention.

commodate his own plans to those Of

PAYMENT OF
INDIAN WAR
BILLS ASKED
i =
Measure introduced in Mime
sofa Senate Asks Money
For 5O-year-old War

st. Paul, Jan. lS.-tR- Minnesota
would attempt To collect claims
against the United States government
under promises made more than GO
years ago il a bill introduced in the
state senate last night becomes law.
The bill would authorize tho attor-
ney general to employ attorneys and
prosecute q claim for expenditures
the state made in raising and equip
ping troops for Indian campaigns in
the COS and certain troops for the
civil war.
One, Of the chief items in the bill
is for troops which the. state raised
for the expedition which General
Sully led into the Dakotas and Mon
tana against the Sioux following the
massacre in Minnesota in 1862.
II Senator C.. H. Mackenzie. Gaylord,
author Of the bill, explained that
these troops were raised and equip
ped by the state on the promise Of
the government that it would pay the
cost. This payment never was made,
he said.
Total Cost Not Determihed
How much is involved in the claims
still is problematical The state
spent from $4,000 to $40, 900 in rais-
ing and equipping the troops for the
Sully expedition. Senator Mackenzie
said.
He did not have data ct hand last
night &c to exact expenditures made,
but said that the Indian campaign
items constituted the major portion
of the claims.
Senator Mackenzie said that sew
eral other states which raised and
equipped troops for the federal gov
ernment under similar circumstances
have been paid. and he believes that
the Minnesota claim will be allowed
when properly presented through the
court Of claims.

Austin. Texas, Jan. 1S-GR)-Youth
--exemplified by the titian-haired
pan Moody and his bridc-today
stood at the head of " new Texan
political order to take over the GU
bernatorial duties from Governor
Miriam A. Ferguson, who with her
husband, James E. Ferguson, occu-
pied the states highest office for
nearly five Of the last 12 years.
Moody, who at the age of 3S, left
the attorney generals chair to de-
feat Governor Ferguson for rejection,
laced the inaugural ceremony at
noon today in community where Ia
years ago he worked a. an electri-
cian's helper to pay his way through
law school.
The Fergusons dispelled rumors
that one of the sharpest political
fights in the states history would
cause them to deviate from the Gus
toms Of welcoming the new governor,
with the announcement they planned
TO be on the platform in front of the
capital building when Moody takes
the oath Of office.
Governor Ferguson has ignored
criticism Of her generous pardon and
parole policy during the closing days
Of her administration, when her in
vitatioh to her critics to show any Of
the clcE ancy orders were unjustified
went unchallenged. Unofficial rec
ords show she released 3,291 persons,
including more than 1000 full par
dons. This total exceeded by sew

On leaving the executive offices
today, the Fergusons plan to retire

GOVERNMENT SHOULD ASSUME RISK OF PIONEERING,
HAUCEN SAYS in REPORTING M'NARY -HAUCEN BILL
Relief Which Bill Aims to
Give Farmers Called an Ex.
pertinent in the Public In
terest - Appropriation No
Different Than Advantage
Government Has Given
Other Industries

Washington, Jan. lS.-(AP)-
The relief which the McNary -Har-
gen bill aims to give the farmers
Is an experiment in the public in
terest and, therefore, the govern
ment should assume the risk c.f the
pioneering work, Chairman Hau-
gen declared today in reporting the
measure for the house agriculture
committee.
The. problems of American ag-
licu!ture have become so profound.
he added, that they are beyond
the power of individual farmers or
their relatively small organizations
t. solve Admitting that the bill
carries large appropriation
$3.50, 900, ,OO0-he held nevertheless
that this was merely to set the
plan in motion and was no differ
ent than advantages the govern
ment had extended to various lines
Of industry.
He explained the provisions of
the bill which carries the contro.
vCrsial equalization fee, as COM
pared with the Curtis-Crisp and
Aswel! measures, which do not in
clude such a fee to- control crop
surpluses. There was no subsidy
or price fixing element in the Nc
Nary-Haugen bill, he said.
Explains Fee Principle
"The equalization fee," he as
serted, "is simply the contribution
each unit (bushel, bale or pound
makes to a common fund for the
commodity. This sterilization fund
for wheat, for example, :.lakes it
possible for an agency set up and
controlled by the wheat growers, in
cooperation with the federal board.
to say how <nuch of the surplus
of wheat shall be removed from
the domestic market at any time.
within limits dictated by bust
ness sense, it enables wheat farm
ers to- adjust the supply Of wheat
to the needs Of the domestic mar
ket at an American price. 1t would
mean the same with rice.

COldl CIduc Ill COLIOIl. .Nucn u IuHu
for cotton would make it possible
for cotton growers to feed cotton
into the markets of the world as
fast as the world wanted it at
reasonable price,"
Other commodities upon which
the fee would be levied are corn
and swine.
Other Commodities
."There are differences in opera
tion," Mr.. Haugen said, "but the
same principle applies to each ct
the five commodities. Notwith-
standing the tremendous up-and-
down movement in corn prices, we
produce on the average little if any
more corn than we need here.
Variation in corn yields keeps the
farmer in the corn belt in an end
less seesaw between corn and hogs.
To help check this is one CT the
purposes Of the measure"
Haugen held that the S25O,000
revolving fund is not different in
principle from the monetary reser-
voir which began the functions Of
the federal reserve beard, or that
contributed to the stabilization Of
railroads. After the plan is once
set in motion, he added, the equal

LIKELY TO BE
NEXT.MARSHAL
Ncnpartisan Leaguers Here
Express Confidence That
He Will Be Appointed

Confidence that O. Gunwaldson
former Burke county sheriff, will get
the .much discussed job of United
States marshal for North Dakota is
quietly expressed by Nonpartisan
league leaders here for the legisla-
tive session.
Several are said to have already
taken UP with, Gunwaldson the mat
ter Of deputies whom he may ap-
point to assist him in the work.
When. recent advices from Wash
ington Indicated that Senators Fra
zier and Nyc had agreed on candi-
date whose name will be submitted
to the president, there was some
doubt as to which of the 20 odd can
didates had been selected. Recent
confidential advices. however, are
said to- have stated that Gunwaldson
was the choice.
Fraxief's Choice
The Burke county man is said to
have been the first choice of Senator
Lynn J. Frazier. Senator Gerald p.
Nye is said not to have been en-
thusastic for Gunwaldson, however.
What arrangements has been made
between the two senators has not
been disclosed. Neither has the ''in-
formation" on which Nonpartisan
Leaghers here base their prediction
that Gunwaldson will get the place.
Gunwaldson Is known to Nonpar-
tisans largely through his friendship
with Roy Frazier, former chairman
of the state Republican central and
executive committees. Frazier also
was candidate for the, job but is
said to have been frankly told that
he had no chance. It Il said that he
then threw his support to Gunwald-
son.
Although the majority are predict
ing Gunwaldson's appointment, other
advices lead some leaguerS to antici-
pate the arpointment of dark horse
in the person Of . former sheriff of
Wells county. NJ. r. aMatthaie, for
mer Wells county prosecutor, was
