MOVEMENT TO HUMANIZE TRAP.
PING
To the Editor of the Midland
Journal.

To the Editor of the Midland
Journal:
The movement to humanize trap
ping customs continues to make
progress. Opposition to use of tor
turing traps is apt to be supported
ed by humane organizations, Audi
bon societies, womens clubs, Boy
Scouts and by many individuals with
ethical inclinations. Prominent men
and women have devoted time to
advancement of measure to reduce
the cruelty associated with the fur
industry.
Those unfamiliar with the opera
ton of the steel-trap may possibly
conceive some notion of the anguish
endured by an animal held prisoner
by a crushed leg if they recall their
own suffering in simply jamming a
finger. The common form of pole
trap suspends it's victim by his mutt
lated limb and some forms of snare
strange by degrees.
Among devices on the market
which capture without the usual
horror is the killer trap, an example
Of which is that made by the Humane
Killer Trap Company, Austin, Penn
sylvania. Important types are cage
traps such as these developed by
Vernon Bailey, formerly connected
with the United States Biological
Survey and his Painless Foothold
Trap, which is suitable for use in
taking larger animals. This in
ventor has also devised an improved
pole-trap.
South Carolina and Georgia have
adopted laws to restrict use of the
steel-trap and many other States
have taken steps in this direction.
An organization was founded some
years ago in Washington, D. c., with
the primary purpose of securing abo-
lition CT the steel-trap. 1t is known
as the Anti-Steel-Trap League.

tees connected with the procuring
Of their fur adornments?

THE HOMELAND
BY UNA CLINGAN RANDs

AT the grave we pause and ponder,
There's so little that we know
About the far, far Country
To which we all must go.
So near, so close that Country,
Its whispers reach the heart.
So far it seems, that Country,
When from our friends we part.
One by one they pass the Portal,
And we can no farther go.
We, remaining, hear but whispers;
They, exploring, see and know.
Till at last we come to feel
1t is no stranger Land we'll roam
With such dear ones gone before us
For where they are must be Home

TIME
For PLay
TODAY

A LIZ work and no play makes
"A Jack a dull boy. But it makes
Jill practically impossible. Women
who have gone so berserk about
work that they've forgotten how
to have a good time are usually
also poor workers.
"But with so much to do staring
me in the face" That was a
good line decade ago, but it's no
alibi today. Housework has be-
come simpler, for canning has
taken the drudgery out of cooking
and if we can't find time to play
something = bridge, golf, ping
pong, tiddle-de-winks-then it's
just too bad.
Canned Mixed Vegetables
One of the newer and very well
come aids to busy housewives is
the coming on the market of
canned mixed vegetables. Some

BUSINESS SEEN
AS LAND0N AID
Eastern StalWarts Resigned
to Midwest Nominee,
Observers Say.

BY Cntted Press
WASHINGTON, March 24.-The
Republican Party is moving today
toward nomination of a Midwest
erner for President and campaign
in which the G.. o. P. will under
take to defend business and private
initiative against the New Deal.
Eastern SoundingS demonstrate
that Big Business along the At
lantic seaboard is willing and anx-
ious to back a prairie Republican.
The consensus of observers is that
Gov. Alt M. Landon is considered
in the East to be the most avail
able" Republican candidate.
That means the men who write
the checks for campaign funds be-
lieve Mr.. Landon has a better
chance to defeat President Roose-
welt than, for instance, Col. Frank
Knox of Chicago. If Col. Knox
made strong finish in the April
and May pre-convention weeks the
hopes Of Eastern Landon boosters
would turn willingly to the man
from Chicago. There would be less
Eastern enthusiasm for Senator
William E. Borah.
Northeastern Atlantic seaboard
opposition to the New Deal is less
concerned today with the identity
of the Republican nominee than
with the urgent desire to get Mr.
Roosevelt out of the White House.

Indian Sign
Paging a PotaWatamie-
This Road Problem
Is Serious.

THE Property Owners Protec-
l. tive Association of Center
Township, outside the city, and
Warren Township, today was hav-
ing Potawatamie Indian trouble
again-a sort of retroactive head
ache.
The association met last night in
School 8 on the matter, but got
nowhere.
On Oct. 16, 1926, Federal agents,
more than likely with their
tongues in their cheeks, signed
the Treaty of Cessions with the
Potawatamie Indians, in which
the whites got strip of land 100
feet wide from Lake Michigan to
the Ohio River by way of Indian
apoliS, and other extensive lands.
For this, the whites were to
build a road 100 feet wide from
Lake Michigan to the Ohio
River, by way of Indianapolis,
and were to do the following
things for their red brothers,
towit:
Provide them with $4,000 an
nually in silver for % years; pro-
vide a blacksmith at some con-
venient location; build a mill on
the Tippecanoe River and provide
and maintain a miller; and pro-
vide annually 100 bushels of salt.
VXTELL, the Potawatamie In
w dams moved away, and
didn't check very closely on
whether the roadway was 100 feet
wide. Neither did the people,
the State Highway Department
claims, around New Bethel, where
they were incautious enough to
build a building now and then on
what was intended for the road
way.
Horse and buggy traffic didn't
require 100 feet and every one
sort of relaxed. Then came the
auto. The State Highway De-
partment looked into the matter
and decided to widen the road
way to treaty specifications.
The Indiana Supreme Court
has ruled that the treaty stands,
but the property owners, faced
with losing trees and hedges, and
even buildings in some places that
encroach on the right f-Way,
still are protesting. At some
places in and near New Bethel
the roadway is only 80 feet wide.
That's the way things stand
now All concerned would be glad
to hear from a Potawatamie In
dian on the matter, if there are
any in the immediate vicinity.
