Committee to Give
Divided Report on
Malt Extracts Bill

The senate temperance committee
Wednesday reconsidcred its action
to send the bill that would prohibit
unrestricted sale of malt sugars,
syrups and extracts back to the SEN
ate without recommendation, and
decided to submit a divided report.
The majority report will favor
passage Of the bill.
The committee heard the bill at
tackled by II! j. Ducmcland. Bis
marck, and defended by +. T.. Nc
Curdy. Burleigh county states at
t0rncy, and Mrs. Fred Wanncr,
jamestown, a member Of the Wom-
ems Christian Temperance Union.
Duemeland asserted that the bill.
designed by its authors to tighten up
prohibition enforcement, would place
a ban on commodity that makes a
harmless beverage if used as intend
ed, and that has. no alcoholic content
in itself.
McCurdy cOntcndcd that the malt
is used primarily as the basis Of an
easily made and cheap "homc brew"
beer He said that as long as the
prohibition statute is on the law
books. every possible effort to en-
force it should be made, and said
that passage of the bill would ma
tcrially aid enforcement.
The committees decision again
drew the fire of Senator G. Patter-
son, Renville county, who termed it
"dinkey legislation" He declared
that it would be impossible to en-
force the law, and it would result in
mail order purchases of malt from
other states.

Features of the Day

New York, Feb. 1O.-LP)-Thomas
Alva Edison today stands on the
threshold Of the realm Of the octo-
genarians. Tomorrow is his S0th
birthday.
A reception in his home, Llcwclyn
Park, East Orange, N. j., which
Henry Ford, Il close friend, will at
tend, and the annual meeting in New
ark Of the Edison Pioneers, Il group
Of men associated with the wizard Of
Menlo Park for many years, will be
special features of the day.
The daily routine of the noted in
ventor was described by William H.
Mcadowcroft, a laboratory assistant.
"Hc gets up about $3.50 in the
morning." said Mr.. Meadowcroft, and
comes down to the laboratory about
. to 10. Then he's at his expert
mcnts all day, quitting about 6 or
y. m. He goes hime and has dinner
and the rest of the evening, say un-
til IL or II O'Clock, is spent in read
ing. He reads prodigiously."

Miss Caldwell sued for $500, 900
alleging that the manufacturer
proposed marriage to her in At

wed her. The jury found that a
marriage contract existed and, in
arriving at the $5O,OOO damage
award, the different amounts sug-
gested by jurors were written
down and divided by II.
In addition to the $50, 900 turned
over to Miss Caldwelrs attorneys

PRES. COOLIDGE
SENDS MESSAGE
TO CONGRESS

CONTINUED from mage ons)
proceed along their present lines Of
negotiations.
So far as land and air ornaments
are concerned, the president evil
denced a willingness to let foreign
powers work out an agreement Of
their own. The land and air forces
Of the United States, he said, are at
q minimum and constitute threat
to no one"
The message fell upon congress
without warning, in the midst Of q
controversy over the construction of
three new cruisers. Overriding the
presidents recommendations the
senate has voted to authorize this
construction and the house, although
it once has rejected the proposal,
appears somewhat disposed to ac-
cept the senate viewpoint in confer
ence. Some Of the most influential
leaders of the presidents own party,
including Speaker Longworth, have
thrown their support behind the
building plan.
Would Affect Cruisers
Should Mr.. Coolidge's suggestion
be accepted by the powers and trsa-
ties negotiated to carry it into a.
feet. cruisers would be one Of the
classes Of ships directly affected by
any limitation agreed upon.
Sent to the capitol by messenger,
the special message was read in SEN
ate and house early in today's ses-
sion, but the possible effect on the
three cruisers plan was not immedi-
ately apparent.
Great secrecy had been observed
in preparation and transmission Of
the American note to the powers.
Apparently but very small handful
Of senators and Representatives had
any inkling of the move until the
message reached the capitol, and
some members of the cabinet ex-
pressed surprise when they heard of
it. Arrangements had been made,
however, for publication of the
note through the American embas-
sizes abroad simultaneously with de-
livery Of the presidents message to
congress-.

Independents Win
Fight on Bill to
Permit Appeals

hamstringing the bureau and event
ually killing it, he contendcd.
Cox said that the tendency of
every governmental bureau is to de-
mand more and more power and to
resist every effort to take any pow
ers away from it while L. L. Twich-
ell, Cass county, contended that the
Swendseid amendment would leave
the law practically as it is now. The
same situation as exists with the
wOrkmen's compensation bureau APP
plies to the state guaranty fund
commission, he said, and pointed out
that bill has been introduced to
make its decisions subject to ap-
peal.
A. w. Fowler, Cass county, said
the amendment would make the law
even worse than 1t is now since, no
matter what the courts might de-
eide, the bureau would have the final
claimant should get, even after his
and improper to deny appeals to the
court, he said, and averred that OPP
ponents Of the bill were over cmpha-
sizing the number Of appeals which
would be taken from the bureaus de-
cisions. The question to be deter
mined, he said, is whether the claim
ant should have his day in court.
Swcndseid countered with the
statement that the question was
whether the bureau should be con-
tinued at all and whether the en-
ploye shall be protected"
Workers Have Not Complained
H. f. SWEET, kidder county, sug-
gcsted that since the question was
zone Of bureau rule or court rule
we should take the court rule in
small doses," and F. J. Lyon, Nc
Lean county, alleged that no argu-
ments against existing conditions
have been advanced by workers whom
the bureau was designed to protect
but only from employers and law
yers.
J. H. Burkhart, Ward county, mi
nority floor leader, charges that the
bill represented ian attempt by some
lawyers to get q few fees"
The Swendseid amendment lost by
. so to IS vote and the bill was
placed on the calendar for action to-
Day.
The election card contest resulted
from a bill by Rep. Freeman. Grand
Forks county, to legalize the placing
of cards containing the names Of
candidates favored by various polit-
hal parties in the voting booths for
Ne information of voters.
Fred Ferris, Nelson county, object
I'd that it would encourage straight
! iieket voting, which. he said, is OBJ
, fashionable "since the voters should
support the man whom they think
hest qualified for the office, regard
11ss Of party"
s Twichell contended that it would
henefit the voters by giving them
IN accurate guide as to the political
affiliations Of the candidates and
u also would save money in handling
acampaigns. Fewer cards would need
;sto be printed, he said, since political
would not need to cir
Isculate their cards to every voter.
I'M Following q discussion Of the rel
alive financial status Of the Inde-
spendent and Nonpartisan organize
Mons, Burkhart suggested that the
independents "are too solicitous Of

CALLED ONLY MEASURE
WHICH MEETS DEMAND

Washington, Feb. 1O.--LP)-Thc
McNary- Haugen farm relief bill
represents the best thought Of the
country's agricultural minds and is
the only measure which amply meets
the demand for easing the farmers
condition, Representative Haugen,
Republican, Iowa, declared in the
house today, in opening the new fight
for relief legislation.

we'll as by the many thousands of
farmers, merchants, bankers, profess
slonal men and officials from all sec
tiOns of the United States"
Are we to longer turn deaf ear
to these earnest and persistent
please" he asked.
Haugen. white haired veteran of
nearly 25 years service in the house
and chairman of its agricultural COM
mittee. declared the present situa.
ton confronting the farmers
presents one of the most profound
legislative problems the nation has
ever seen.
Government Aid Necessary
He detailed at length the problems
causes and contended that only gov
eminent aid is the solution.
I'VE do not want bill granting
a subsidy he said. "or to cram
down the Threats of the produce,

applies on domestic and foreign pro.
duction.
In the last analysis, Haugen declar.
ed, the farm relief bill is an expert
ment and he called upon all officials

board composed of the secretary of
agriculture ex officio, and Il member
from each Of the II federal farm
land bank districts. The members
arc appointed by the president from
n list Of nominations prepared by
nominating conventions in each dis
trict controlled by bona fide farm
organizations and cooperative asso-
Citations"
The commodities affected by the
measure are cotton, wheat, corn, rice
and swine. An effort is to be made
to add tobacco to this list.
The Boards Powers
Whenever the board determines
that surplus exists, or is likely to
occur in the ensuing year. it may
declare can operating period" for
any basic commodity. The boards
duty during such n period would be
to assist cooperatives in removing
or withholding or disposing of the
surplus" and the initial funds for
these operations would come out of
a $3.50, 900 revolving fund which
the bill provides.
To reimburse this revolving fund,
or sterilization fund, an equalization
fee is imposed upon producers of
the crop for which an operating Pc
Rod has been declared. Unlike the
old McNary- Haugen bill, which would
have fevied the fee on all producers,
the present measure assesses il
against leach marketing unit" II
may be collected, in the discretion
of the board, on the milling or pro-
cessing.
The measure also would permit
loans from the sterilization fund
to cooperatives without the equali-
cation fee requirements in an eff
fort to control SURPRISES, a provi-
sion which resembles the loan fea-
lures of the Fess and Tincher bills
Of last session.
Fees to Pay Costs
The bill declares that the only cost
to the government shall be the ex.
penses of the board, for which $780,.
900 is provided, the theory being that
all other costs arc to be paid out
of the equalization fee.
In skeleton form, the new bill il
similar to the old McNary- Hauger
measure, but there have been nu.
merous changes which, it is con.
tended, have rendered this years plar
less objectionable. Chief among these
are the elimination of the "tarifi
yardstick" and "fair and reasonable
price standard" resulting in scarce
~ any direct connection with the
tariff except a declaration in the
bill that it aims to "preserve ad
vantageOuS domestic markets"
