Little Baga Demand Seen.

Louis Olsen was in the Twin Cities
yesterday looking over the rutabaga
market. He states that there is very
little demand for this product yet
on account of the hot weather, and
also states that the market price is
too low for the early product. 1t is
doubtful that there will be much
buying for another two or. three
weeks.
A survey of the fields around here
during the past two days reveals that
there are very few marketable bagas
yet, but there is every indication that
the quality of the baga will be above
normal. John Thinesen has hauled
a few loads to the city the past week.
Louis Olsen and A. Henriksen are
both busy having their rutabaga
houses put in first class shape so as
to be ready to handle the rush which
customarily comes about the latter
part of August.

FUND
PASSAGE IS SEEN
Boy|an Says S50o,00O for
Jefferson Monument to
Be Approved.
BY WILL P. KENNEDY.

Chairman John j. Boylan Of the
Thomas Jefferson Memorial Com
mission today predicted early ap-
proval of S500OOo appropriation to
start work on the memorial, despite
opposition by the Fine Arts Com
mission and the House Library Com
mittee, which has drafted a bill to
repeal the law that created the COM
mission headed by Representative
Boylan.
Mr.. Boylan plans to appear be-
fore a deficiency appropriation sub
committee either tomorrow or Friday
to urge favorable action on Budget
Bureau recommendations transmitted
by President Roosevelt for the me-
mortal fund.
Gilmore D. Clarke, chairman of the
Fine Arts Commission, which disap-
proves the Pantheon design selected by
Mr. Boylan's group for the Jefferson
Memorial. and Chairman Keller Of
the House Library Committee are ex-
pected to lead opposition to the pro-
posed appropriation before the def
cheney subcommittee, which is headed
by Representative Taylor of Colorado.
Chairman Keller said the Library
Committee expected to report favor
ably today or tomorrow bill already
drafted which would repeal the law
creating the Jefferson Memorial Com
mission. This measure was approved
by a 3-to-2 vote of the committee over
a less drastic bill sponsored by Mr..
Keller. His measure would have re-
quired Congressional approval Of the
Memorial Commission decisions re-
garding site, design and appointment
of an architect for the proposed me-
mortal.
Mr.. Boylan yesterday made public
records of his commission meetings.
which he said showed great efforts"
were made to cooperate with the Fine
Arts Commission and that the Pam
theon design was adopted without its
approval only with great reluctance.
He said his group once approved
design urged by the Fine Arts Com
mission, but rescinded this action
when it learned the design was
modified version Of one proposed in
1925 for a memorial to Theodore
Roosevelt.
