Xew York, Jan. 14. Nicholas
.Murray Butler, president of Columbia
university, issued a statement attack
ing the report of the Hoover law en
forcement commission. He said it is
"new and pathetic evidence that
Washington, like the emperor Nero,
fiddles while Home is burning." Dr.
Butler is an opponent of prohibition.
"Faced by the greatest and most
dangerous emergency which has con
fronted our people and our yovern
nient since the civil war." his state
ment said, "all that is now proposed
is more laws. Even some of these
appear to be. directed at reducing still
further the protection once afforded
to civil liberties by the bill of rights."
The statement said "the first prac
tical and constructive step toward re
storing our government to its orig
inal and well-tested form will be to
clear out of the house of representa
tives in November next, those wretch
ed creatures who sit there to cheer
and laugh when murder is extolled
iti their presence, and to bring to a
ouick end those constant exhibitions
of government - made lawlessness
which outweigh a hundred times over
all breaches by individuals of any
law whatsoever."
"When the government ceases from
lawlessness," Dr. Butler continued,
"it will be easier, as well as more

dub of ladies in Fairview district,
held their December meeting at the
j home of Mrs. Philip Trltsch with
only one visitor, Mrs. George Prlvett.

From Wednesday? Dally
The annual clash between the
Plattsmouth high school and the
Creighton Prep team of Omaha, last
night at the local court, resulted in
the visitors annexing the gam' by
the score of 2H to It;, in a contest
that was hard fought on both sides
until the last few moments when
the lead of the visitors mounted to
a margin that permitted them to stall
ihe last fi'w moments.
The game was spirited and marked
wih some- fas' floor work on the
part of bo'h teams and plenty cf
art ion throughout. Galloway of the
Platters playing a very strenuous
game throughout both in his offen
sive and defensive phases of the
game. The guarding game of Cr igh
ton was very close despite this faei
the Platters repeatedly broke through
reir line.s lor snots at ihe baskt t
that missed by the narrowest mar
gins. For live visitors, Boyle, right
guard and Mullen, center, were the
chief scorers with eight and ten
points to their credit, while for the
Pint tors Calloway and Bob Hartford
each had two baskets to t.h ?! credit
and Mti mm and Captain Turne r one
each.
In the opening quarter the two
teams sawed the lead between them
until almost the whistle when Boyle
dropped in a basket to make the
count S to H for Creighton at the
dose of the period.
The second quarter saw Hartford
the only local abl to ring one altho
there v? re many chances taken, this
basket with the free losses of Gallo
way and II a r; ford bri riving the
Plattsmouth score to 11 while the
visitors pushed up to 10.
In the last half of the game, Mul
if'ii, Creighton center, commenced to
get hot and proceeded to annex three
tic hi goals with Boyle and Murray
eat h taking one to their credit, while
for Plattsmouth. Turner and Milium
wen the only ones able to annex a
basket, and Wiles tossed in a free
offer! ng.
In the curtain miser of the game
the Creighton Seconds and the Platts
mouth Reserves staged a battle with
a 20 to 10 victory for the visitors.

MOVING TO PLATTSMOUTH
Mr. and Mrs. K. V. Stewart, who
since disposing of their restaurant
business at Louisville, have been on
their farm near Farnam, Nebraska,
arrived here Tuesday and are now
engaged In arranging to become once
more fcettled in this city, their form
er home. Mr. Stewart served as sher
iff from 19'3 to 1925i and his many
old friends over the county will be
interested in learning that he is ex
pecting to make his home here in the
future.
Windows in 200 homes at Shen
andoah, Iowa, were boarded up there
Tuesday night as the result of an ex
plosion in t lie city gas plant which
killed one man, injured another, de
stroyed the plant, and shattered win
dows in homes and business houses
for blocks around.
Emergency cooking apparatus was
being installed in iS0 homes lelt
without means of preparing food. Oil
burners, coal stoves and furnaces
were placed into service by house
wives lorced to discard their gasi
ranges when the supply of fuel was
cut off.
Officials of the Iowa Light and
Power Co.. owners of the plant, esti
mated it would take from six weeks
to six months to replace the plant.
They indicated they would stand
the expense of repairing homes and
business houses, and placed an esti
mate of S60.000 as the loss of the
plant itself.
Virgil Rettis, :". was killed, and
Hugh Shadduck, the only other man
in the plant at the time of the blast,
is recovering from injuries. Pettis is
survived by his widow and two small
boys. 7 and 9 years old.
Rush orders were sent to surround
ing towns for various types of elec
trical apparatus and oil stoves, which
might be used in luu of the gas
ranges. Restaurants said they ex
pected to be equipped with electrical
devices by Wednesday.
The supply of glass for replacing
broken windows was exhausted and
city employes were put to work
boarding up broken windows or put
ting in glass cloth to keep out the
cold.
The explosion occurred about 'J
a. m. from a cause as yet undeter
mined. It tore out the entire east
wall of the two-story plant and so
damaged the remainder of the build
ing and plant that attempts to re
pair them were believed futile.
Residents of the entire city were
thrown into a near panic, so terrific
was the blast.

Another requirement of the Act
the Hoard has already assi.Ued in
the formation of several national
cooperatives representing particular
commodities. Others will be formed
in the future. If and when such na
tional cooperatives are formed, it is
the policy of the Board to require
that all local, state, or regional co
operatives shall affiliate with the na
tional and receive the benefits of the
Agricultural Marketing Act through
this national affiliation.
It is the desire of the Hoard that
proper reserves be set up by the co
ooeratives to meet their own peculiar
conditions. In such cases, provisio
should be made for the ultimate dls

the distribution of all other earn
