Couzens said he wanted law for the

The power commission-recomme

Shadow Army Is on Way

army of British war veterans, lured
by gold and adventure in distant,
tropical lands, is streaming across
the Atlantic, bound for the Gran
Chaco of South America, where Bo-
livia and Paraguay are %disputing
territorial rights.
The soldiers of fortune have
pockets that jingle for the first
time in years, money supplied by
secret agents of the two disputing
nations.
They travel anonymously in first
class cabins-a band of friendly
enemies-some on the side of b.
livia, others in the hire of Paraguay.
The veterans, thrown out Of their
jobs by economic stress, are trying
to join in the South American fight
by the hundreds.
The agents r sending retired CT
f1cers, aviators, and battletrained
men to the Chaco region as fast as
money and discretion will permit.
And although they conduct their
operations secretly, the Bolivian and
Paraguayan legations in London are
not hiding the fact that they are
recruiting men.
Paraguay, at the moment, is offer
ing a 500 bonus and about SIS a
week, plus frst-class passage to
South America. Bolivia gives the
same terms, but makes the bonus

ferences between producers and
distributors which caused a ten
day strike during which the city's
milk supply was brought by train
from Omaha, Neb., we're settled to-
day by leaders of the two factions.
Farmers agreed to accept a fiat
price of $1.80 for 100 pounds. Pre-
viously they had demanded $2.17, in
contrast to a prevailing price of 81
on 3.5 per cent butter fat test milk,
and IS cents On low test surplus.
Milk will cost retail consumers 8
cents a quart. They have been pay
ing 8 cents. Farmers will receive
3.6 cents a quart.
The long milk strike, which pre-
cipitated entry of northwest Iowa
farmers into the general farm
holiday called as a protest against
the prevalent prices paid for all
farm products, was settled amicably
after four days of arbitration.
Farmers in the general holiday
movement, however, declared that
pickets would continue to enforce an
embargo on all farm produce, in
GLIDING milk, and announced that
the milk producers settlement was
not valid because it had not been
approved by the holiday association
