upon by the bureau February Is

Lynch ExplsiRs
In the senate, Senator w. d.
Lynch, La Moure county. outlined
the joint committees reasons for
preparing its report % it did and
asserted that he was not worried
about what "the people ct home"
might say about it, actiou.
Lynch said that the chief question
before the legislature was the mill
and elevator situation, averring that
when that is taken out there is
nothing left to the governors mes
sage. Since the governo~ appeared
before the committees and filed 1
statement virtually c0ncedin9 the
1epuEts of the fact-findin~ commit
tee to be substantially correct. that
should settle the question, Lynch
claimed. He laid he had been asked
why more witnesses were not called
and declared that since tn governor
had made his sta .ement there was
no use in. 9oing farther.
Regarding the audit system at the
mill lGd elevator, Lynch said the
coHlmittee had comea4o the conclu-
sion nothing could be done at this
session without unwarranted delay
and study Of Z number Of fine
technical points. Another commit
tee would be necessary, he said,
and asserted that the idea having
one or two committees meeting and
the rest Of the house and senate
u1embers idle was a.loor one aud
brought only classification. -
Feeling Over Mill Changed !
"The feeling u.s." Lynch said, that
the auditors, managers and workers
at the mill and elevator will take
hold and there will be Lore coordin-
