MILWAUKEE, Feb. 23.-Wiscon-
sins milk strike ended today, except
for discontended irregulars."
Adjutant General Ralph NJ. I'M
nell sent kilograms to all sheriffs in
the strike zone, which had extended
from the northern Illinois border to
Green Bay, saying that the farm
organizations had voted to call a
truce and that whatever groups
remain active Friday will have no
authority for their activities and will
be operating on their own respons-
Utility"
The adjutant general said that
Governor A. G. Schmedeman
wanted all pickets dispersed and
normal conditions restored.
A truce, which will continue until
May l, was arranged partly at a
conference between the Governor
and the dapper strike leader, Walter
M. Singler, president of the Wis
consin COOPERATIVE Milk POOL The
Governor promised that he would go
before the Roosevelt administration
to seek feedral aid. He said he would
attend the conference of Governors
at Washington called by President
Elect Roosevelt.
Milk Is Dumped
The last act of violence reported
before the truce became effective
occurred at Mukwonago. More than
1000 strikers gathered at the Walter
Aherns garage. The strikers said
Aherns' employees had used gas
pipes to force their way through
picket lines.
The farmers forced Aherns to run
three trucks to the city limits. where
$50 cans Of milk were dumped.
Throughout the day, until farmers
at Madison voted in favor of a
truce, violence had been reported.
OVerall-clad farmers blockaded
scores Of highways with timbers to
keep milk trucks from the markets.
The farmers fought with fists and
crude weapons. They pitched tents
along highways and stood guard
night and day. They disregarded
orders of their leaders, attacked
market-bound trucks, beat drivers,
and battled deputies who tried to
diSperse them.
Fire Departments Help
Khaki-clad police led the op-
posing army, which was augmented
by companies of nonstriking farm
ers, and special deputies. Fire de-
partments joined in the war and
drove back rebels with streams of
water.
The war zone stretched from the
states southern border along Lake
Michigan far past the tip of Green
Bay. 1t almost blanketed a dozen
counties which produce more dairy
products than any other area of
their size in the nation.
While the rebellion spread, the
man who started it all, Walter M.
Slngler, met in Madison with other
farm leaders.
AS president of the state co-opera-
tive milk pool, Singler urged i'm
mediate suspension of the strike and
organization Of a nationwide en-
barge on all farm products if the
incoming national administration

Chicago Reformer Long Has

BY MAX STERN
Times STAFF Writer

WASHINGTON, Feb. 23.-Pro-
gressiye Republicans in general, and
Senator Hiram johnson OF Cali
fornia in PARTICULAR, were congratu-
lating themselves today on the APP
pointment, now reported assured, Of
Harold l.. J kes, Chicago attorney,
as secretary Of interior.
Ickes pronounced Ick-es, with the
accent on the Ick) is considered
Senator Johnsons closest political
friend east OF til, SierraS. He al
so is a close personal friend. 1t
is no secret that Senator John
son, who was offered the interior
portfolio, practically has named his
Chicago ba ker as his substitute.
Ickes left the Republican fold
along with Senator Johnson to sup
port Governor Roosevelt. This is
not the first time these two in
depC dents Jumped the traces" of
their party. Ickes entered national
politics in 1912 as a Roosevelt Bull
MooSer.
Fought for T. II.
AS chairman of the Illinois pro-
gresSive state committee, he fought
and bled at Armageddon, with
doughty Hiram Johnson, when
Roosevelt lost the nomination for
President, at his side. In 1916 he
followed Johnson into the camp of
Charles Evans Hughes and cam
palgned for Hughes in his Inflated
tour of the west. During the war
he was a "Y' worker in France.
In 1920 and 1924, when Hiram
essayed the presidency by the di-
rect primary route, IckeS helped
Hiram at every turn and in the
1924 campaign was Johnson's Illi-
nois campaign manager.
Like Johnson, he always has been
an ardent reformer. Before he en-
tered national politics, Lawyer
Ickes was hopping up vice in the
Windy City. He managed the cam
paigns Of the reform mayoralty cam
didateS, John M. Harlan and Charles
E. Merriam.
Wife in Legislature
More recently he has acted as a
director of the Utility and Investors
League of Illinois. He was a signer
OF a recent petition asking the Illi-
nois commerce commission to in
Vestigate the insult operating COM
. panieS.
Not only is he interested in
power, but in other matters of con-
servation. He is q member of the
national conservation commission.
Although he never has entered
politics as an Office holder, his wife
is a member of the Illinois legisla-
ture. He is SO and the father of
four children.

BUDGET RULE:
To De. TESTED

SACRAMENTO, Dec. 0. U.P) -
Further test of the per cent linz
itation placed on budget increases
for counties under TIE Riley-StcW
art tax plan will be had before the
state supreme court, Controller Ray
l.. Riley announced today.
The third district appellate court
ruled that counties were entitled
70 include 1888 school eXpendi-
lures in the base for computing the
permissive PEI cent increase. The
board of equalization, which ad-
ministers the act. contended that
school funds SHOULD be excluded
because they were now provided by
the state.
Twenty of the SO counties in the
state submitted budgets exceeding
the five per cent limit, the board
Of equalization reported. The appeal
to the supreme court, Riley said,
would question the counties right
10 spend more Than 5 per cent above
the 1928 budget, irrespective Of
whether the money will be raised
from 1933-34 taxes.

STAR ACTRESS
ASKS DIVORCE
Mary Pickford Files Charges
OF Mental Cruelty And Deser-
ton Against Fairbanks.
BY GEORGE II. BEALE

United Press Staff Correspondent
LOS ANGELES, Dec. 9. The
most publicized romance of mod
ern time-a love that for more
than a decade held Mary Pickford
and Douglas Fairbanks up to the
world as 1.-The perfect mates'-was
at a definite end today.
1t concluded with the cold, color
less legal Technology of a COM
plant in which Miss Pickford,
known for years as Americas
sweetheart, asked for a divorce
from her famed, acrobatic husband.
In vague generalities the screen
stars complaint charged Fairbanks
with mental cruelty and desertion.
Fairbanks showed a LACK, Of con-
sideration of Miss Pickford's feel
ings and sensibilities and has con-
sistently carried a course of con-
duct which has caused Miss Pick
ford mental anguish and grievous
suffering" the action claimed.
The actor since June, 1890, and
against the wishes of Miss Pick
ford continuously absented him.
! self from the home of the parties
hereto for months at a time" Miss
Pickford complained.
She alleged that his action, be-
cause of her position as an actress,
caused much unfavorable COM
ment in newspapers, magazines
and periodicals throughout the
world"
There were other paragraphs in
the complaint but they added moth
ing to those outlined above.
Miss Pickford followed the COM
plant with a brief formal state
ment that read:
For the past several years my
married life has become increas-
ingly unhappy. Being convinced
that under the existing circum-
stances the future offers no solu-
ton it is with the deepest regret
that I am filing suit for divorce"

FINE ADDRESS
/. PRESENTED At
WOMEN : CLUB

ReSurgence OF the nationaliStic
spirit is the characteristic of the
world of nations today, according
to Dr. H. Arthur Steiner, professor
OF political science at the Univer-
sity OF California at Los Angeles
who delivered the program for the
Women's University club today.
Both politically ana economically
public opinion is today far more ma
tionalistic Than in the pre-1914 pc
Rod, the speaker declared. In proof
of his point he cited that in the
United States today, the admin
STATIONS recovery program is na-
tionalistic in aim, although certain
signs, among them the recognition
CT Soviet Russia, indicate that a
change may evolve ana that the
policy may become international.
While there IS nope for an inter
nationalistic point of view develop
ing in the United States policy,
that for Europe is far more pess-
!nistic he declared. Frances de-
mand for a guaranty for Ter ma
tional security, the rise of Hitler
ism in Germany and the history
of the League Of Nations are proof
OF the great resurgence of nation
aliSm.
Traces Development
Going back 10 the roots OF this
present development, DR.. Steiner
gave an intensely Interesting &C
count of the reasons for develop
ment, declaring that while he con-
siders the domestic policies of Hit
Ter as vicious if completely carried
out. Hltler's withdrawal from the
League of Nations might possibly,
through The scare it gave Great
Britain and France, result in
compromise which would tend to-
wards peace.
Madame Ethel Virgin ONeill, &C.
companied by Mrs. Russell Bennitt,
sang a lovely group of four songs
which varied from an old Italian
song, to a maSsenet aria, a lifting
gay Schubert song and modern
composition descriptive OF the deS-
ert. Her beautiful voice was heard
to advantage in this wide range OF
songs.
A luncheon preceded the program
and a business meeting was held
prior to that, during which Miss
Betty Bishop OF Imperial was well
coined into membership. Announce
ment was MADE relative to The
marathon round tables ana also to
The vcsper musicale, the glee club
and the fellowship maps.
