New York, May 6.-R)-The cid

heavy with politics and mediccrityJ
The committee wrote the governo|
merely for his information" Twi
weeks ago the committee attacked

The report blames the condition o|

The superintendent, william J
O'Shea, is described as a man ol

that party welfare is being pu: aheac

TWIN CITIES SEWAGE
PROBLEM DISCUSSED
Officials of Minneapolis and St.
Paul Meet With Governor
Floyd Olson

st. Paul, May 6.-F-Seeking some
solution of the metropolitan sewage
question, officials of the Twin Cities
and South st. Paul met in executive
conference with Governor Floyd B
Olson Wednesday.
Mayor w. F. Kunze, Minneapolis,
spokesman for his delegation, said
that city was willing to enter a fair
and equitable" plan of sewage dis
posal with st. Paul and South st.
Paul.
A plan he and his delegation
planned to suggest at the conference
was to require Minneapolis and st.
Paul to construct their own intersect-
ing sewers and finance jointly the
main trunks between the two cities
on the basis of assessed valuation.
Operation of the sewage system
then could be financed on q volume
basis, he said. Arrangements could
be made with South st. Paul to come
in on the plan on a volume basis.
If no compromise could be effected
with st. Paul, Mayor Kunze warned,
Minneapolis can go ahead and col-
Struct Its own plant.
Under a plan passed by the legisla-
ture and vetoed by Governor Olson,
the Twin Cities and South st. Paul
would have come under a joint dis
trict sewage system with the cost
spread over the three cities on an as
Sessed valuation basis.
Minneapolis officials raised objec-
ton to this plan. claiming South st.
Paul packers would not bear their
just share of costs under the proposal.

ture is that suave and debonair actor,
Give Brook.
Tallulah Bankhead, as you know.
has been London's reigning stage ia
vorite for several years. During that

"Tarnished Lady," which was writ
ten by Donald Ogden Stewart, serves
as an excellent vehicle for Miss Bank
heads debut. It is q dramatic story
Of q society girl who marries for con-
venience, deserts her husband and
finally, discovering that the man she
thought she loved is unworthy of her,
fights desperately to regain the love
of the husband she had Tilted. ORA
matte suspense Is built up with great
care and carries on to q climax that
is absorbing and convincing.

COUNTY CROP,
IS IS PER CENT IN
Land Is in Good Shape, Agricul-
turaI Agent Says After Con-
Quoting Survey

Dickinson, N. D., May 6.-Seedine
operations are IS per cent completed
in Stark county. The crop has gone
into a fine seed bed and the land has
worked up in good shape. G. G. East
gate, county agent, states following q
survey based on reports received from
various points in Stark county.
Summer fallow land has drifted con-
siderably and some farmers are tax
ing steps to stop it by using duck foot
%cultivators. On the whole, conditions
are good and the crop will withstand
drought. Grain already is appearing
above the ground and a good rain,
followed by two or three warm days
would see everything a healthy green
Mr.. Eastgate says. At present, the
only thing suffering from the lack OF
moisture is pasture land.
Seeding operations are expected to
be completed by May Is. Many farm
ers are ready to SOW flax, but are
waiting for rain which will aid in ere
ating a more favorable seed bed. Al
the present time. seeding operations
are confined largely to oats and bar
ley, the bulk of the wheat crop being
in the ground.

|IOWAFARMER GROUP
CONSIDERS PROGRAM
New Organization Formed by
Dissenting Delegates Of Corn
Belt Federation

Des Moines, Ia, May 6.-(R-A
complete program for the national
committee of farm organizations
formed Tuesday by dissenting dele
gates to the sixth annual convention
Of the Corn Belt Federation "a the
question before the initial meeting Of
the new group Wednesday.
The newly formed body, COM
posed Of about 30 middlewestern
farm leaders, claimed to represent
three-fourths in actual numerical
strength of the original organization,
stands for the federal farm market
ing act and the Federal Farm board.
I'VE believe in cooperative market
ing and to that end are giving the
federal farm marketing act and the
Federal Farm board our active and
energetic support, believing that real
benefit already has been manifest
and that greater benefit may yet
obtain" members Of the new COM
mittee said Tuesday in an official
statement.
The split in federal ranks came
Tuesday when a group opposed to the
workings of agricultural marketing
act and headed by the president,
william Hirth of Columbia, Mo-,
succeeded by a vote Of 20 to 10, in
admitting delegates from several
subsidiary farm union groups.
The delegates who withdrew de-
clared that the move was apparently
one to force commitment of the
group to a course in opposition to
the agricultural marketing act and
tending toward the political field.
After the withdrawal Of the others,
the remaining delegates continued
their session by electing officers and
adopting resolutions condemning the
Federal Farm board, the Hawley-
Smoot tariff, the present monetary
standards and the Hoover admins

S2,314,000. the Missouri Pacific ST.
$4,000, and the Union Pacific 81 ,0O0,-
600. Mr.. Wood estimated the aver
age reduction of total revenue under
the proposed schedule at 1929 per
cent.
Profits Arc Falling
For five years, the attorney. said,
the net operating income of the rail-
roads has been far below the 5A per
cent fixed as a fair return, and in
1880 the profit fell to 3 per cent.
Mr. Wood told the court the pro-
posed reductions were based on facts
and figures assembled as far back as
1928, when conditions were entirely
different: their establishment has
been postponed several times, and the
rates would not represent present
economic conditions. He added that
recourse had already been taken to
petitions for rehearings before the 1.
G. c., the last having been denied
in March.
The terminal grain company of Fl.
Worth, Tex, and the Texas industrial
traffic league, who have similar petit
tions pending before the court, asked
Wednesday that they be allowed to
consolidate their arguments with
those of the railroads. Counsel for
the railroads asked for time to exam
inc the Texas companies briefs and
no decision was reached.
A group of eastern railroads also
filed q petition to intervene. Public
service commissions, in charge Of in
traState commerce in the interested
area, represented the following states
asking leave to intervene as defend
ants: Arizona, Colorado, Idaho, Kan
sas, Missouri, Montana. Nevada. New
Mexico, North Dakota, Oklahoma,
Oregon, South Dakota.
Say Rates Reasonable
The states, asking that the rail-
roads bill of complaint be dismissed
and the new grain rate be permitted
to go into effect, argued the present
rates r unreasonable and work a
hardship on the farmers.
Attorney Wood .dwelt at length on
the Hoch-Smith resolution passed by
congress in January, 1928, the act I'M
der which the new rates were based.
This resolution, he said, recognized
the depression of agriculture in that
year. Since then, Wood argued, cSri-
cultural conditions have become better
while railroads find themselves in a
much worSe state.
Elmer B. Collins, special assistant
to the attorney general in Washing
ton, headed the legal staff represent
