Reflection Cast on Every
Legislator Assertion
of Galloway.

Effort to revive the beauty shop
bill in the house Of representatives
failed today after Representative
Fred S. Galloway Dem, Indian
apolis), declared he might be forced
ito show up racketeering.' He as
serted that when it is stated that
1T costs from $1,000 to $4,000 to get
a bill passed" reflection is cast up
on every legislator.
Organized coSmetologists of the
state are said to be supporters OF
the bill, which the house killed
Tuesday by voting indefinite post
ponement. There was no discus
sion.
Today a motion to suspend the
rules lost through lack of a ma
Jority, thus preventing further con-
Sideration. The bill imposed sani-
tary and other regulations on beauty
shops, provided for examination and
payment of license fees.
Similar measures have been de-
feated in previous sessions of the

MONOPOLY PRICE ON
IODINE Is WRECKED
New Plant in California Could
Produce Whole U. S. Supply.

LOS ANGELES, Feb. Enough
iodine to supply the entire present
American market could be produced
at the end of a years expansion
program of a new chemical plant
recently established here to extract
this widely used element from Cali
fornia oil well brines.
It's present production is several
hundred pounds of iodine a day
but it can be expanded to produce
$50 tons a year, the present Aneri-
can consumption, if this should
prove necessary.
The plant already has wrecked
the monopoly price maintained by
the Chilean nitrate corporation,
which obtained iodine as by
product of its fertilizer reduction
Some months ago the Chilean cor
poratiOn cut its former price of 81 a
pound to So; within the last few
weeks a further cut was made to
the present prevailing price of $1.95
a pound.
The new American firm has met
all its rivals price cuts, and it is
reported that it is able to face any
price competition which Chilean
iodine may offer.
The new firm here is a subsidiary
of the Dow Chemical Company of

INSURANCE CO. SUSPENSIONS

CHEER CORN BELT FARMERS
Iowa Governor Urges Assembly to Speed New
Legislation to Help Agriculture Go
to Work on Spring Flowing


DES MONIES, Ia, Feb 1.-Harassed farmers of the
belt looked toward spring blowing today confident that
foreclosures their land have been halted temporarily
The malignant attitude that permeated groups of farm
they prevented foreclosure sales of weeks by
sheer strength Of numbers softened They looked hope
fully to the legislature and the incoming administration to
speed relief measures.
The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1933-02-01

The cheerful change in
farmers outlook followed an
nouncement by large insur-
ance companies that mortgage
sales have been suspended.
The announcements were in
line with a proclamation of
Governor Clyde L. Herring
urging cessation Of fore
closures.
L am very much gratified and
pleased with the action of old line
insurance companies in suspending
mortgage foreclosures, Governor
Herring said today Whether or not
they cooperate with us means sue
cess or failure of our plan They
promised me their support at the
start and have steadfastly cooper
ated."
Speedy Legislation Expected
Governor Herring said he antic-
ipated speedy legislation that will
clarity the situation to their and
the farmers best interests"
The legislature, bordering an adj
dress by Henry A. Wallace, farm
editor and cabinet prospect, hoped
to have before it today a relief
plan evolved by a special commit
tee selected from both houses, Gov
crnor Herring met with the commit
tee.
The executive suggested to as
semblymen that they combine all
their various proposals into one bill.
Behind this bill, to be drafted by
the relief committee, the entire
force Of the administrative and
legislative branches of government
will be placed.
Wallace Urges Program
The proposed measure, expected
to include two-year farm fore
closure moratorium and repeal of
the clause whereby second mort
gage holders may foreclose over
holders of first claims, may be pre-
sented to the assembly this after
noon.
Wallace, in his address, hinged re-
lief hopes on four point program.
1t included: Cd production control;
90 controlled currency initiation;
CD debt reduction; ~ manufacture
of corn into motor vehicle fuel.
Wallace attributed acuteness of
the farm situation to priority of
selfish interests"

can not get together to work out
a relief program that will be best for
them and the farmer" Wallace told
the legislature. Each group is too
much concerned with narrow, selfish
interests, and urges the farmer to
look somewhere else for relief. AS
a result, the farmer is in danger
OF falling victim either to despair
to counsel of mob violence"
While farmers poured in tele-
grams and letters on their repre-
sentatives in the legislature, a dele
cation at Woodbine, Harrison coun-
ty, gave a new expression of group
strength.
Instead of going to the aid of
fellow farmer, they defended a
landlord and forced the tenant to

in which a group had sided with

Loss of Billion in Last Year

BY WILLIAM PHILIP SIMMS

WASHINGTON, Feb. 1.-Charg-
ing that American farmers had lost
billion dollars in the last year be-
cause the unsettled war debts have
disturbed international purchasing
power, the Wheat Belt Intelligence,
a Kansas farmers organization, has
demanded that congress do some
thing about it.
In letter signed by Clearance w.

mitteeman, and c. c. Isely of the
advisory board, Senator Arthur R.
Robinson rep, Ind was Sc
verely taken to task for opposing

ment proposal
Il suppose you know" the let
ter stated, that from October to
Dec. is, sterling, English money,
dropped from $348 to 1914, the
lowest quotation ever recorded.
Haven't you found out yet that this
disturbance to exchange conceded
with England's payment of ninety
five millions gold, and that the price
of corn, hogs. cattle. wheat and
cotton declined more than one bill
lion dollars?
Fall in Foreign Sales
"You say Roosevelt, and 1 sup
pose you also mean Hoover, should
be interested in the troubles of the
United States. Isn't this billion
dollar loss to the farmers enough
trouble to the United States?
Haven't the farmers of Indiana
and the west suffered enough be-
! cause men like you in the senate
have been uninterested in the fate
of our best customers?
Don't you know that America
sold Great Britain one billion dol
lars worth of goods in 1929, and
that those sales dropped to $780,
600. 1000 in 1881?
I'VE have not seen the latest fig
ures for 1882 but they will soon
approach the vanishing point if you
keep on.
Dropping Wheat Exports
do you know that in 81, in the
six months from July on, our wheat
exports dropped to the terribly low
figure of only 100000 bushels?
And that due to monetary and eX-
change difficulties, for the same per-
iod in 1882, they dropped to 23,00O,-
600 bushels?
Don't you know that all this fiat
money and free silver talk arises
from the upset in the money Sys-
TENS of Europe due to difficulties in
exchange, and that 80 per cent OF
the exchange difficulties are due to
left overs from the war debts and
Preparations?

"When will men like you learn?
The Republican party, from the days
of Hamilton, has been a sound
money party and here you are doing
everything to upset it.

we farmers and the west are dumb,
| therefore, you must take a false
stand. But $4,000 voters in Kansas,

mary, demanded war debt adjust
ment in the interest of agriculture.

Forest And Prairie

One of the books taken to the summer cottage was "A Lantern in Her Hand Old and young enjoyed the story of pioneer ing on the prairie, of long sacrifice and late, viearious fufillment of desire. What took hold of one reader most strongly was the fact that pioneers could have wanted to go at all to those vast and unfrendy lands. The same dangers and troubles were there which the forest dwellers had to meet - rattlesnakes, unfriendly Indians, wolves in gray fur coats, and wolves in more gaunt and ghostly rament wolves of hunger and isolation. But the praries, thought this reader, offered no such eompensations as the forest had to give. There was always water in the wooded country, and fuel. and nuts and other edibles. The trees gave protee- ton against the worst of winter winds and summer suns. If man needed tool. there was always kind of wood at hand out of which it could be fashioned.
 It took him long evenings thinking be- fore his fragrant fire of birch and cedar, to realize that what the prairie pioneers wanted fathers grapple with the forest. They re- membered the hard labor of clearing the smallest field of roots and stumps and open' ing it to the sun. They regarded the open grasslands ready for planting as a paradise Compensation enough for doing without the gifts of trees was doing without the labor of getting rid of them.
 And so each pioneer has had his hard ships and his gains. his loves triumphins over his losses. East. west, north, south, high mountains, low seaboards, forest and plain. deep cold lakes and broad rolling rivers each has taken it's toll of life and labor, each now returns beloved and friendly home sites Labor and fortitude were required to make the change. They are still required. in diff. fcrcnt form. of the pioneers descendants.
