Washington treaty. in its safeguarding
clause, Article XXI. contains broad pro-
visions Of general application, while
the London treaty is specific in the
provisions by which a signatory nation
may increase its naval power.
The Washington treaty provides:
IT during the trme of the present
treaty the requirements of the ma
tional security of any contracting power
in respect of naval defense are, in the
opinion of that power, materially af-
fected by any change of circumstances,
the contracting powers will. at the re-
quest of such power, meet in confer
ence with view to the reconsidera-
ton of the provisions of the treaty and
its amendment by mutu"l agreement"

Will Rogers
Says:

BEVERLY HILLS.-The Literary
Digest loves to straw vote on sub
jects that everybody is arguing over
at the time Well. here is one that
is creating more dust than the one
they are voting on now, so I pro-
pose they start a straw vote at once
on the following: will people vote
on prohibition at the polls (where
they have to sign their names the
same as they do in straw vote?
Please vote either yes or no."
You see the Digest put in
middle vote tthe modification plan).
Now both the vets and the drys
are claiming that vote. SO let's get
started straw voting on my plan;
no confusing planks.

Cooperative Distribution
Declared Lawful by Court
Supreme Tribunal DismisseS In
junction to Restrain Oklahoma
Group

In dismissing an injunction
against the Oklahoma Cotton Co.
operative, the United States Su-
preme court upheld the method or
dinarily used by farmers cooper
ative associations in distributing
profit to members on the basis OF
quantity of commodities handled
The decision may prove of consid.
cradle importance in legalizing CO.
operative marketing plans under
the Federal Farm board.
The Supreme court set aside an
injunction granted in the Federal
District court of Oklahoma against
the Farmers Union Cooperative Gin
Co. and the Public Utilities com
mission of Oklahoma.
The Cotton Gin Co., of Packing.
town had been granted an injunc.
ton restraining the Public Utilities
commission from giving the Far.
mers Cooperative a license to op.
crate gins in Oklahoma, where gin
ming companies are public service
companies.
The company argued that the
cooperative's privilege of distribut.
ing profits among it's members and
non-members gave a rebate and as
such was a special inducement for
business which constituted discrim.
ination against private company
The supreme court in an opinion
written by Chief Justice Hughes
over-ruled the lower tribunal, hold
ing that private business also could
distribute its profits among it's Gus
toners if it wished to do so, so
there was no discrimination in ia
vor of the cooperative. One avenue
of possible attack in the courts on
the cooperatives was considered
closed by the supreme court de-
cision.

POPE COUNTY HAS
new COURT HOUSE
Practical Structure, Costing
$1S5,O00, Built Without
Bond Issue
TO DEDICATE JUNE Fl
Three Day Pageant Will Be
Participated in by All
County Communities

Thousands of Pope county res
idents will participate in the pro-
gram of celebration which marks
the opening of their new S1s5, ZOO
court house June 10, 20, 81, at Glen
wood.
Countrywide committees are now
functioning and making the final
arrangements for the observance
of the dedication which is being
featured by a huge pageant in
which the pioneer history and the
growth of the county is depicted.
The cost of construction of the
court house block was $153, 1000; cost
of the furnishings was S2O,50O, and
this together with other fees brings
the total of $1S5,0O as the price of
the structure to Pope county.
This building which occupies an
entire block was built Immediately
in front of the previous court house
structure which served Pope coun-
ty for a period of 40 years. During
the period of construction the offic-
ers of the county remained in the
old building and following the COM
pletion of the new structure moved
into the block. The former building
was then dismantled and it's site
will add to the beautiful grounds
with which the court house will be
surrounded.
The Pope county court house is
three stories high and it's dimens-
ions are 81 by 146 feet. A commune
ty room with a stage and kitchen
is located on the ground floor to-
gether with officers for the high
way engineer, sheriff, janitor, the
transfer vaults which are connect
ed by private stairways with the
offices on the second floor. Lavora-
tories are located on this floor as
we'll as all individual office suites
The auditorium and community
room on the ground floor provides
a seating capicity for $50 people.
The rotunda of the court house is
on the first floor and it leads to the
offices of the auditor and treasurer
| which are separated by the com.
| missioners' room. The offices of the
register of deeds, superintendent Of
school, county nurse, all with large
/ vault space, also are on this floor.
On the second floor the district
courtroom occupies the centre. 1t is
80 by 50 feet and is furnished elab.
| orately. It is beautified with solid
walnut woodwork which is heavily
carved and inlaid with ebony. Of
the courtroom are the judges
chambers, the office of the county
attorney and two jury rooms, all
with modern lavatory facilities. A
special room has been arranged fol
reporters and attorneys.
For many years the Commission
ers of Pope county set aside sink.
ing fund each year to be used in
erecting a new court house. The
structure, costing S1S5,0O complete
was erected, the Herald under
stands, without a single cent OF
| bond issue.

Attorney General Benson
Makes Strong Radio Talk
Litigation, and Other Matters
Over WCCO-KSTP

Henry N. Benson, now serving as
attorney general by appointment
and a candidate for the Republican
nomination for that office, spoke
over WCCO on Tuesday evening.
Mr.. Benson, among other things,
said in substance:
1.-THE attorney generals office is a
balance wheel in the state govern
ment. It is the office to which the
other departments and state agen-
cies come for legal advice. For the
highway department, the office tries
the hundreds of cases arising all
over the state involving the acqui-
sition of rights-of-way for the trunk
highway system; for the tax COM
mission, it rules on the questions
which arise daily regarding the op-
Grafton of the tax laws. The at
torney general is charged with the
responsibility of collecting the in
heritance taxes and conducting the
extensive litigation arising under
that law. The departments of con-
servation and forestry, game and
fish, banks, the board Of control,
railroad and warehouse commission,
and all other state departments and
agencies frequently consult the at
torney general upon various diff
cult problems.
I'm addition to that, advice and
assistance are given to county at
torneys in criminal cases and offic-
ial opinions to the number of sew
eral thousand each year are rend-
cred on county, city, village, town,
and school problems.
Matters before the office range
from questions of extreme impor-
lance, such as the Chicago water di-
version case, the proposed railroad
merger, and the taxation of national
banks, down to the proper expeIdi-
ture Of town and school funds. To
each of these problems the attor-
ney general gives the same pains
taking and careful consideration.
