LIONS WANT STATE
INSTITUTIONS TO
QUIT DAIRY LINES
legislature to Be Asked to Pro.
hibit Selling Milk While
Eating Oleo

The matter Of the state in business
especially In the dairy line, where
convict. charity, reform and mentally
deficient labor completes with private
dairymen will be placed before the
coming legislature with q plea that
the policy be prohibited.
The move was made by the Lions
club at the noon luncheon today, and
primarily was taken to abolish COM
petition of administration diaries
with legitimate dairymen. Harry p
Goddard, contact member for the As
ISOLATION Of Commerce, suggested the
inclusion Of other branches Of farm
ing. such as grain, hay, fruit and
Vegetables, y
i re. McCurdy. who made the mo-
ton, said the state prison here brings
its surplus milk and cream into the
city and sells 1t, then loads up sever
al cases of oleomargarine to feed the
prisoners, thus injuring the legitimate
dairyman going and coming.
McCurdy's idea was that the insti-
buttons should be allowed to sell their
surplus dairy product outside the
state, but should not be allowed to
subject the taxpayers who are legiti-
mate dairymen to the competition of
:aeir cheap. oleo-eating labor.
He suggested q Legislative commit
tee to take the matter up with the in
coming legislature.
At this time q drive Is being made,
said McCurdy, to increase the use oil
dairy products and thus improve the
condition Of that industry in the
state. However, while dairymep are
laboring under great stress, the state
is the biggest Stacker In not coming
to their relief, he said.
Fred Peterson suggested that there
will be other matters before the leg
islature calling for support of the var
ious service clubs, such as bridges
over the Missouri, a new capitol build
ing and good roads.
President David e. shipley an
nounced that he would have three
committees on the job Of attending to
legislative proposals when the legisla-
ture meets.

BIZ United Press
NEW YORK, Nov. More de-
tails of the wire pulling behind a
big championship fight were expect
ed today when Gene Tunney faced
cross-examination in the 100000
suit of Timothy j. Mara, who claims
a 25 per cent slice of the former
heavyweight champions earnings.
TunneyS testimony so far, while
intended to show that Mara did not
perform the service for which Gene
says he was hired, also has revealed
interesting sidelights on the rise of
a champion and Of the politics back
of prize fights.
Thursday the former champion
identified a series Of letters and
kilograms from his manager, Billy
Gibson, who wrote that some mem
bers of the New York state boxing
commission were attempting to force
Jack Dempsey, the champion, to
meet Harry Wills, Negro contender,
before fighting Tunney. Gibson also
mentioned high political figures and
told of efforts to influence the box
ing commission through them.
Attempts were made to have some
one, talk to Governor ALFRED E.
Smith, Gibson's letter indicated, but
apparently no one got to the. point
