WOOL MARKET.

Boston. Feb 1S-(UP)-Tradc in wool is quiet in the Boston market, according to today's report of the U. S. Agricultural department.
 Uncertainty exists regarding asking prices. especially on med ium grades of territory wools, which have not been moving for several weeks at prevailing quota tion. Recent easing in prices of medium grades of fleece wools has intensified pressure on prices asked for similar grade territory wools. Estimated receipts of domestic wools at Boston, reported to the Boston grain and flour exchange during the week ending February 16, amounted to 412.000 pounds, compared with 154,SO0 pounds during the previous week.

 President Roosevelt had listened without comment to a telephoned play by play version of the de- cision. Hardly had he finished than new deal leaders began to assem- ble.
 All were jubilant.
 First to arrive were Attorney General Homes S. Cummings and Secretary of the Treasury Henry Morgenthau, Jr. Cummings smiled broadly and said he was pleased" Morgenthau was in equally good spirits.
 Next was Secretary of State Cordell Hull and then Senate Ma jority Leaier Joseph T. Robinson. Robinson had gone to the supreme court to hear the decision and take first word to the senate.

 Usually, the court reads its opin- ion in case, and then at the very end gives its decision. To- day, Hughes, his whiskers bobbing, rattled off the bare decision in each on the gold cases at the outset. Then he launched into the long opinions.

to act on the house seed loan
bill, IN organized Geographic cam
paign was conducted over northwest
states by the Greater North Dakota
association to appeal for . set Of re-

commercial organisations In Mime
sota, the Dakotas and Montana.
THE present house bin allows on
" Q $3.50 maximum seed loan Tor thaa

borrowers because Of the unprecedent-

Of seed. The senate bill provides foe

Appeals also ask for removal Of re-

Are not the representatives only try

Noodle had not resided five years in
the state before his election, and that
his citizenship was In doubt. Now the
legislature was merely urging this to
be cleared up. Is that an awful crime
Weren't they only doing their duty?
It looks to me they wanted the
things cleared up 50 they could 60 to

lambast them and call them ''quib.

I'm sure most representatives and
senator's are trying to do the fair
thing. and get legislation that Is fair
to the public In general. We have
laws In our state, and why shouldn't
they also apply to Mr.. Noodle. I am
sure he wants to comply with the law.
To change the subject. I was glad
to read that Mr.. Hopton proposes

believe this Is good law. II the prem
ium Is not too high. And $500 per
acre insurance would be alright. We
should have some protection at . low
cost. I hope the legislature will
make some such law.
Also would say I hope the legisla-
ture keeps down the appropriations on
the different departments. We are
not out Of the depression yet. Most
Of us have debts and taxes that must
and should be paid. So let US cut
costs to the bone until We have
couple of good crops.
am surprised that many Of these
swivel chair occupants, that have felt
the depression very little and drew
their pay checks, are now asking for
increased appropriations, and increas-
ed salaries, which will increase taxes
Many of the departments are not
worth Sc to most Of us. and yet every
year thousands of dollars are raised
to keep them going. It Is awfully un-
fair.
