FARLEY
URGED HERE
ON DRUGS
BY KENNETH CLARK

Striking at the root Of the mar
cotic evil, Representative Black Cd,
of New York. yesterday introduced
resolution in the House request
ing President Hoover to call an
international opium conference In
Washington.
The conference would be charged
with negotiating an air-tight agree
ment to limit the production, manu-
facture, sale and distribution or
opium and narcotic drugs to the
legitimate medical and scientitic
requirements of the world.
Under the resolution, President
Hoover would be given wide dis
cretionary powers In summoning
the international meeting.
Unison Necessary
"kll the recognized authorities on
the narcotic problem realize that
effective domestic control of the
drug traffic can never be accom-
plished until the nations OF the
world by concerted action unite IN
limiting the production of opium
and cocoa leaves to the barest re-
quirements essential to medicine
and science,1 declared Black.
"Opium is overproduced on .
vast scale. So long as drugs are
as easily obtainable as now. the
unscrupulous traffickers Will con-
tinue to smuggle the stuff into
the country further to degrade and
poison the American people.
america must adopt the most
stringent measures to eradicate this
curse of humanity, but we can never
be entirely successful until all the
countries agree to cut down the sup
ply at tl1eJ source. Our country.
which has done more than any other
to protect its citizens from the raw.
ages OF drugs. should ever be in the
forefront of the fight to force
limitation of opium to legitimate
needs.

Ramsay Macdonald, Premier Of
England, to visit America this sum.
mer, think President Hoover
should consult with him here about
the conference. If America and
Great Britain take the initiative,
the other countries will readily fol-

FOR GOVERNORSHIP

has been mentioned frequently as a
possible candidate for governor, has
definitely removed himself from the

He has, however, indicated he will
be a candidate to succeed himself as

In letters to newspaper publishers
and friends who have advocated his
candidacy, Mr.. Holm has advised: Il
am not candidate for governor. l
have only one ambition and that is to
serve conscientiously and with all my
ability in the office to which the peo-
pie have elected me several times. II
my service here merits my continu-
ance in this office, l am extremely
gratified and happy

mentioned as possible gubernatorial
candidates are, Chief Justice Samuel
B. Wilson, of the state supreme
court; N. J. Holmberg, state dairy
and food commissioner; Ray P. Chase

SEES ANOTHER BIG
YEAR FOR Al CLUBS

The All club movement in Mime
sofa, with its 5000 clubs and mem
bership of about $4,000 boys and
girls, has not by any means reached
its limit of growth, says I. A. Erlck-
son, state leader with headquarters
at University Farm, St. Paul. The
remarkable increase in the livestock
and poultry clubs which headed up in
the Junior Livestock Show of the
week of November 10 is evidence OF
a rapidly increasing interest in all
All club work. This interest is not
only spreading among boys ad girls
themselves but among business men
in almost every community and
among school men and others as
well. Consequently, Me- Erickson
looks for at least normal growth of
from 5000 to 5000 members next
year.
The Junior Livestock Show, which
was the big closing feature of the
years work, showed Is per cent in
crease in the number of entries with
a total of about $50 young folks en-
tering various kinds of livestock.
Several new features were added
to the program. These included a
breeding poultry exhibit, a poultry
judging contest, and showmanship
contest. In all of these much inter-
est was shown, and they will doubt
less all be repeated next year. The
annual banquet given under the sup
ervision of the young business men
of st. Paul is said to have been the
best in the history of the show.

MANY FARMERS FALL
FOR FAKE GROCERIES

Several reports from the southern
part of the state say that many men
are going around to the farmers SELL
ing them groceries, collecting in adj
vance, and skipping the country. On
one occasion a man came to a farm
yard when chicken house was just
completed. The man claimed he was
the Jamesway Mfg. Co.. and that the
new building infringed on patents
held by his company and demanded
royalty. The farmer refused to pay
it and the man left saying he would
return. Another man came to farm
representing himself as an eye spe-
cialist and told the farmer he had eye
trouble, securing two checks, one of
which he cashed.

SUGAR BEET CROP
GOOD IN ST. JAMES

The sugar beet harvest in St.
James was finished last Thursday and
the last carload shipped to Mason
City. The total number of cars ship
ped out was eight, approximately
5000 tons produced from 400 acres.
The contract price of the beets is
$500 per ton and the amount which
will be distributed among the beet
raisers in that vicinity is about $751;
00C. 1t is believed that the beet crop
will be doubled in acreage next year.
Farmers have found that the beets
leave the ground in very good shape
and that the beet tops serve as ex-
cellent food for dairy cows.
