SICK FAMILY IS
 STILL ISOLATED

Spencer, Ia., Feb. 14.-- (UP)- Merciless wind, sub-zero cold and drifting snow today forced a volrn- teer crew of shoveiers to abandon their efforts to clear a highway to the Alvin Blessing home where two children are near death from pneu- monia and six other small children are i'll with whooping cough. A country snow blow, sent to aid the volunteer workers. was stalled with Q broken axle. Fear was felt for the eight-months-old twin daughters Of the Blessing family, reported crit- ically i'll with double pneumonia.
 Volunteer rescuers were sum- moned by a general phone call sent out over rural lines. But they were forced to give up the battle against wind and snow when drifts piled up behind them and threatened to trap the entire crew in the bitter, sub- zero storm.
 Many snow blows in the vicinity of Spencer were reported broken down under severe use in Q month oG extreme winter weather. Avail- able equipment was used almost ex- clusively for emergency service. to open roads for physicians and uEi- dertakers.
 A rotary snow blow arrived here from Des Moines on the Milwaukee railway and was proceeding toward Spirit Lake, isolated since last FTi- day.

|MILKFARMERSTO DECIDEOWNPLAN Producers, Dealers Vote
 for State Referendum \ on Prices

Hartford, Conn, Feb. 14--(Up)- Milk farmers of the state were left to decide for themselves today whether they preferred to accept Q fiat rate for their product or con- tinue under the present classiflca- ton Q sliding scale price for each use of milk.
 Decision to conduct Q referendum was made at Q meeting of produc- CTS and dealers sponsored yesterday by the Farmers National association and Producers-D Dealers association.
 State Milk Administrator g. Noe Lean Buckingham, who endorsed the referendum, insisted that each vote be signed by the producer, and tho meeting urged the poll be completed within two weeks.
 Many attending the meeting, urged adoption of the flat rate sys- tenn, 30 that producers and dealers would receive equal returns on sales. Such Q system had been in effect before the state milk board was or- ganixed several years ago and was abandoned for the present classiA- cation, or utility system.
 Buckingham said he would be guided by the sentiment of 90 per cent or more of the producers, whether he would lend his support to the flat rate basis.

priation of money that could bt used indiscriminately."
 40 Bills Proposed
 Washington, Feb. l4-(UP)-Crit- icism of the supreme court was re- flected today by more than 40 bills to curb or revise the courts power
 Some of the bills are based on historical ideas considered and re- jected by the framers of the consti- tuition. Others are plainly offered for political purposes without hope of. being passed.
 The preponderance favor new laws curbing the court. The court might, if 1t desired, hold these laws unconstitutional. Others suggest constitutional amendments.
 Most of the bills fall into one of four categories. They would:
 l. Forbid the court to declare acts of congress unconstitutional.
 2. Require that holdings of un- constitionality be unanimous or by a larger majority than that of five to four at present required.
 3. Increase the size of the court. which would permit the possibility of packing the tribunal with judges favorable to the administra- tion.
 4. Require the court to give ad- viscry opinions on the validity of a law before it became effective.
 Many friends of the court have recognized the disadvantage of five to four decisions. Chief Justice Charles Evans Hughes, in lectures delivered at Columbia law school, deplored the lack of conclusiveness such decisions carry.
 The suggestion that the court render advisory opinions was re- jected at the time the constitution was drawn. So also was a proposed veto power for the court. Many of the new measures, however, provide that such an opinion be given either as part of the process of legislation or at the request of the president, the attorney-general or congress.

Mother, TUo Sons Charged
 With Murdering 7lUo People

son, Jackie, 20 months old, who died of exposure. The Lakes daughter, Betty, six months old, was found in the Bannister home several weeks after the killing.
 The Crown revealed its case at the Bannister's arraignment yes. terday. Mrs, Bannister, a gay widow of tn New Brunswick wilds, was the n;, ,ss of Milton Trite, @ ncighbor. She told him last No- vember that she was going away to have a baby, The Grown claimed that she later caused Trite to be- lieve she had given birth to his child by walking around the coun- tryside carrying Q bundled doll. To get a living substitute for the doll, she plotted the deaths of the Lakes, the Grown said.
 The Lake cabin burned to the ground several weeks ago. Lakes body was found in the ruins. A half mile away were found the bodies of Mrs. Lake and Jackie. Lake had been shot. Mrs. Lake had been killed with Q club. The baby was missing, -.
 Arrested, Daniel and Arthur said Lake had been killed because he made improper advances to Fran cis, Is, their sister. Several days later police searched the Bannis- ter house and found the baby. This brought Trite and Albert Powell, a Salvation Army worker, into the weird tale.
 The Crown alleged that Mrs. Ban mister had taxed Powell with inti- macies with her other daughter, Marie, 1S, and wished to use the baby against him as much as against Trite. The Crown said that her deception of her own lover had been so perfect that he had purchased a crib for the baby. which, at the time, was nothing more than doll.
 The Crown said that Trite and Powell admitted they had paid considerable sums" to the Bannis- ters. Trite told of having seen Mrs Bannister at 0 distance carrying what appeared to be a baby. This happened several times and he never thought 1t strange, the crown said, that he had not been permit ted a closer inspection. He was pressing for good look at the oaoy when the Lakes were slain.

 SAFE IN CANADA

Montreal, Feb. 14-(UP)-United States post office officials today con- ferred with crown authorities in an effort to obtain the extradition of Dr. J. N. Chausse, Montreal doctor, who Is wanted to face lottery charges at Springfield, Mass.

Aided by Canadian 'authori- ties, the United States officials will attempt to interpret the charges SC that they may constitute an offense under which Dr. Chausse's, extradi- ton can be obtained.
