Former Byrd Aid
Shot by Policeman
Resident of Alexandria Said By
Friends To Be Demented-
Placed In Hospital

Richard Brophy, former secre-
tary to Admiral Byrd, has become
demented, according to a story
from the dailies during the past
week. The story Of his escapades Is
as follows:
The quixotic affairs of Richard
Gale Brophy, former secretary Of
the Alexandria, Mimi, Commercial
Club and once secretary to Admir-
al Richard E. Byrd during the adj
mirars Arctic expedition, ended,
temporarily, at least, when he was
committed to Bellevue hospital in
New York as a common criminal.
He appeared in court wounded by
a policeman's bullet, fired when he
suddenly commandered a taxicab
near Central park, November IL.
Soldier Of fortune, promoter,
newspaper reporter, Brophy has
been in the newspapers recently
for startling exploits of his madcap
career.
He was committed to Bellevue
hospital today for observation in
the psycopathic ward after a
friend appeared for him and told
the story to Magistrate William
Knapp.
On November IL he seized taxi
cab in which two women were pas
sengers, attempted to kidnap one
after the other had fled, ran the
car at breakneck speed until bull
let's from policeman's gun
wounded him. He jumped from the
cab and fled on foot through Cen
trail park, but was soon apprehend-
ed.
Police were not aware that their
prisoner was second in command
of Byrd's polar expedition.
"This man is not in his right
mind" Robert s. Rubin, a friend,
told the magistrate. The magistrate
agreed to a period of observation
pending Brophy's trial as a COM
mon thief. Brophy had refused to
let physicians remove the bullet
that wounded him in the Central
park chase. 1t was still lodged in
his back.
Twice Brophy has disappeared
under circumstances indicating
suicide. Once he left note and his
clothing in a Coney Island bath
house. The note, sent to his wife,
resulted in her nervous break
down that sent her to a sanator-
ium. Three months later Brophy
appeared as a reporter on an Oma-
ha, Neb., paper. He started back to
New York to rejoin his wife, but
disappeared again. He reappeared
at Chicago, divorced his wife, mar
ried another woman and disappear
ed again.

ton for extraordinary service and
also for certain merits that have
been gained as the result of attend
ing courses given for the training
of Scoutmasters.
Mr.. Gilbert stated that Mr.. Ker-
neghan exemplified that high type
of Scout leader who not only told
the boys under his command how
to conduct themselves but who led
the way and by his own example
showed the Scouts how to make adj
vancement in this great organiza-
ton. The Fargo executive congrat-
ulated the local Scoutmaster on
behalf of the council and the Scout
executives before pinning the Eagle
badge alongside of the Scoutmast-
er's gold key.

opposite direction blocked that
avenue Of escape for Mrs. Arvig,
and the slippery surface Of the hill
afforded so little traction that they
were unable to stop. They crashed

Foes State Olson
Tax Program Doomed
Special Session Firmly Controlled
BY Anti-AdministratiOn
Majorities

Governor Olson's redistribution
Of wealth" tax program proposed
Tuesday in his message to the
special session of the Legislature
appeared to be doomed Tuesday
night even before its introduction
in the form of bills by the minor
ity groups.
Although public comments on the
Governors message by members OF
the majority groups were only mild
ly antagonistic, leaders admitted
privately that his program stands
virtually no chance Of adoption.
With anti-administration major
tiles even more firmly In the saddle
in both houses than they were at
the regular session, they are in a
position to defeat the Governors
proposals with little trouble, it was
pointed out.
Indications were that the Cover
nor's attitude, as disclosed in his
message, has clinched the exclusion
of tax issues from consideration at
the special session, already propos-
ed in resolutions adopted by both
houses.
Majority group leaders feel 1t
would be a waste of time to draft
and pass any omnibus tax bill to
relieve the burden on real estate,
as almost any measure they would
favor would be certain to receive
an executive veto.
One statement by the Governor
also was viewed as indicating he
will veto any bill to repeal the cor
porate excess tax IL it>ss not accom-
panied by a substitute levy and
does not include increases in var
ious other taxes.
The Governor said II am agree
able, as part of the foregoing COM
plete tax program, to new corpor-
ate excess tax law imposing a tax
of 20 mills upon the corporate ex-
cess of public utilities" Legislators
regarded the phrase, "as part OF
the foregoing complete tax pro-
gram" as meaning the Governor
would oppose repeal under any 9TH
er conditions.
The Governor advocated passage
of an old age pension bill, without
maximum payments. which would
distribute sixteen million dollars
annually to BOLTS persons IS years
old or older in Minnesota, to be
financed by higher taxes on mon
eys and credits, mortgages, inner
itances, telephone and railroad
gross earnings and iron ore.

Questions Pertaining To
Agriculture and Home


What medicine do you advise
putting In the laying mash to keep
hens healthy?
AS a rule, I should not add any
drugs, chemicals, or condiments to
the mash. On exceptional occasions
when the hens are sick q stimulent
as a digestive aid may be Of value,
but in the long run it is better to
omit such things altoge<her.-A. G
Smith, Division Of Poultry Hus-
bandry.
A farmer here has had difficulty
with his horses going off feed, hav-
ing diarrhea, and seeming to be
somewhat poisoned. Could this be
caused by feeding very musty oat
straw and oats that are badly mold
ed?
There is little question but that
the trouble is caused by the feed.
1t is not advisable to feed musty
roughages or moldy grain to any
class Of livestock, although cattle
are less likely to be poisoned than
other animals.--A. l.. Harvey, Div
ision of Animal Husbandry.
About August I, one Of my sOws
became so skinny I weaned her
pigs and right after threshing be-
gan feeding her all she would eat.
Two Of her teats swelled to the
size of cocoanuts and small sores
appeared on them. Now another
growth is starting. Can you tell me
what to do for the teats, or wheth-
er she would be all right to butch
er?
From your description, I judge
that the swellings are the result OF
infection. I do not believe there is
any definite cure. The sow might
get better, but do not believe will
be fit for breeding again. If she is
worth slaughtering, I would
slaughter her at once. If the inter
nal organs are all right, then
think that the meat would be tit
for food, discarding all Of the at
fected parts. If you care to try
treating the growths, would sug-
gest hot applications, combined
with mild solution of creolin or ly-
sol; that is, one of two per cent sol
utions applied warm.-C. P. Fitch,

VI W. WILL DEMAND PERMA-
NEWT NEUTRALITY POLICY

A Constitutional amendment that
will give the United States q per-
manent neutrality policy, will be
demanded Of the next SESSION OF
Congress, by the Veterans OF For-
eign Wars of the United States
The movement, which will have
the unanimous support OF the
countrywide overseas veterans or
eanization, Is incorporated IN the
eight point legislative program
inundated by the seth annual ma
tional encampment Of the v. F. w,
held September 1920, at New Or
leans.
1.-THE ". +. w. and the citizentry
Of this nation as a whole, Is deter
mined that the United States shall
never again wage war except for
defensive purposes" Department
Commander A. w. Nimens declared
today in explaining the proposed
neutrality policy.
History and our own personal
experience has convinced US Of the
futility Of war insofar as the well
fare Of the masses Is concerned.
Everyone by now knows that the
World War was a colossal failure
in its efforts to save the world for
democracy It is a matter OF fact
that America entered the World
War on the side of those powers
that owed the greatest indebted
ness to private interests In this
nation. In addition, prior to the
declasation Of war, certain privately
owned interests In the United States
provided the belligerent nations
with the contraband Of war.
"Our membership, the men who
actually have participated in action
in the war zones Of foreign lands.
under Americas flag, have learned
only too well that the greatest cost
of war is borne by the men who do
the fighting. In view Of the fact
the Italian-Ethiopian situation has
tually all on the verge of war, that
the Italian-Ethiouian situation has
qualifications that threaten to in
volve many other world powers and
that we, the veterans of this coun-
try's wars, are no longer in a mood
to approve the principle Of Ameri-
can protection for private corpora
tons and their investments on for
eign soil, the ". f. w. is demanding
that our Constitution be amended
to provide the United States with
permanent neutrality policy-a poll
cy that will observe strict hands

tween other nations.

determining the producers allot-
ments, however, first consideration
will be given to those who grew
rye for grain in one or more of the
standard base years, 1880, 1881, and
1892, he says. Those who began
growing rye for grain since 1882
will receive their allowance from
any acreage that may be left over
