Although pickets have been vic
torious in sporadic skirmishes with
authorities during the first four
days of the strike, the number of
counties in which the embargo is
effective has dwindled from eight
cen to eleven.
Officials interpreted movements of
strikers Tuesday night as indicating
desperate attempt today to make
the strike effective.
State troopers, who donned over
alls and mingled with picket forces,
reported to assistant Adiutant-
General Nicholas Shantz that a
formidable company of strikers
planned to move into Shawano
county.
Indians Are Deputized
Threats were made to burn the
Badger cooperative dairy plant
here. Early in the day no strikers
had appeared, however.
Indians from the Menominee res
ervatiOn, north of here, and large
groups of civilians were deputized
to bolster units Of national guards
men dispatched from Milwaukee.
Scouts reported all movements Of
pickets from Outagamie and other
neighboring counties.
Every highway leading into this
sector, center of strike activities be-
cause it is the home of Walter
Singler, head of the Wisconsin milk
pool, was guarded

ed by Telephone on movements of
strikers in their communities.
Throughout Tuesday night, search
lights played on dairy plants ana
guards were on duty to prevent at

Reds Influence Claimed
In Langlade county, to the north,
200 deputies waited. In Marathon
county, on the western border, 300
deputies we're ready for actions.
In Racine county, hotbed of strike
activities in the southern part of the
state, the situation was almost
equally tense, with 100 guardsmen
acting as deputies, and nearly 1000
strikers reported in the vicinity.
Other deputies were dispatched to
Ozaukee and Waukesha counties.
Shantz said he was informed that
Communists were circulating among
strikers.
Adjutant General Ralph Immell
informed Shantz that twenty five
alleged Communists were among
thirty pickets arrested at Milwau-
kee late Tuesday.

SENATOR URGES
TAXI METERS

A bill ordering taxicabs in the
District to install meters, sep
arate and distinct from the Dis
trict appropriation bill, was a6-
vocated today by Senator Royal
S. Copeland CD of New York,
of the Senate District Commit
tee.
The New York Senator. who is
also a member of the District
subcommittee of the Senate Ap-
preparations Committee, recon-
mended that the Public Utilities
Commission draw up a plan for
meter taxicabS for the District
Committee.
The taxicab situation, which
has been before Congress ever
since the flat rate taxis came
into existence more than two
years ago, should be taken care
of by a bill originating in the
Senate, he said, instead of being
attached to the supply bill as it
has been in the 1888 and 1884
appropriation bills.
Although such legislation should
not be considered during the
present special session, he said,
it should be given early consid-
GRAFTON in the next session.
The House has consistently adj
vocated retention of the flat rate
while the Senate has repeatedly
asked for meters. In the present
bill, the House recommendation
has prevailed.

RENT CUTS

Revival of the rent commission
Of war days was advocated to
bring about an equitable system
of rents in Washington by Sena-
tor Arthur Capper (RD, of Kan
sas, at a mass meeting at Central
High School last night.
Senator Capper pointed out that
with Government wages reduced,
rents should follow. He also de-
clared that interest and inSur-
ance rates are too high for those
who own their own homes and
recommended that these be re-
duced.
President Roosevelt is keenly in
terested in the rent problem, the
Senator said.

House District Committee will at
tempt to bring about lower rents,

60-CENT SILVER
|SP|TTNAN' :
OBJECTIVE

Sterilization of the price of
silver at so cents an ounce is
being sought by Senator Key Pitt
man CD of Nevada in the con-
versations which this govern
ment is holding with the princi-
pal silver producing and con-
Suming nations of the world.
Pittman, who is chairman OF
the Senate Foreign Relations
Committee and Congressional
representative in the economic
conversation, already has sue
ceeded in getting the representa-
tives of Great Britain, Canada,
Mexico, and China to agree on
two immediate ends to be sought
at the World Economic Confer
ence for revaluation of silver.
To Halt DebaSement
These are, first, that the ma
Gons will agree to call halt to
the debaSement of silver coins,
and second, that those nations
which have debaSed their silver
coinage will take immediate
steps to restore its former fine
ness.
An accord of these two points
was reached during the individual
conversations with the British,
Canadian, and Chinese repre-
sentativeS. Conversations are
now proceeding with the Mexican
representatives, and they, too
have expressed their willingness
to cooperate at the conference
Tor this achievement.
33 Cents Present Price
The present world market
price of silver is about 33 cents
an ounce. Pittman believes if the
price of silver can be raised to
go cents and stabilized there, it
will place the silver consuming
countries, such as China and
India, on a more equal basis
with the rest of the world and
facilitate the flow of interna-
tional trade.
He believes it will be particu-
1arly beneficial to this nations
trade with the Orient.

HOME BREWERS
STILL At t

CHICAGO G.N.S).-What has
become of the basement brewer
since the Federal Government
made it possible to buy real beer
at the corner grocery or drug
store?
The Siebel Institute Of Tech
nology here has just completed a
survey on that subject and re-
ported that "home brew" still is
one of the country's most popular
drinks.
Retail hop and malt dealers
told the investigators their busi-
ness continues on a grand scale,
bearing out the Governments
most recent tax figures.
Price, and not taste prefer
ence, according to DR.. F. P. Sic
bel, head of the institute that
made the survey, accounts for the
continued popularity of "home
brew"
The doctor analyzed a dozen
bottles obtained from different
sources and found the average
content to be not much in excess
of legal 80 beer.
But microscopic examination Of
the specimens, he said, showed
