CHANGE IN SENATE RULES
Washington Troposal to change
the senate rules to prevent a repeti
tion of the repeated votes upon the
same amendments such as were taken
in that branch while it had the tar
iff bill under consideration, was made
Thursday night by Senators Swanson
of "Virginia and Harrison of Missis
sippi, both democrats. In a state
ment issued by the democratic na
tional committee Senator Swanson
said the "glaring foolishness" of the
present method of procedure was il
lustrated in the tariff bill just pass
ed. "Most items." he added, "'were
considered five or six times in the
senate before finally disposed of. No
legislative body in the world has
such a clumsy. Inconsistent method
o fdisposing of legislation. In ad
dition, the present rules give an op
portunity, when a matter Is consid
ered in the senate, for all kinds of
trades and combinations, which iB
very undesirable."
TAFT'S MEMORY IS HONORED
Washington The widow of Wil
liam Howard Taft received an honor
in his name Friday and was men
tioned for a congressional courtesy.
Presentation was made to Mrs. Taft
of the grand cross, of the Order of
Polonia Restituta by Tytus Filifowicz
Polish ambassador to the United
States. It had been conferred upon
the former president and chief jus
tice in 1924, but could not be pre
sented while he was on the bench.
Later Mr. Taft's health would not
permit the presentation.
The house postoffices committee
ordered a "favorable report of the
Saunders bill, which would provide
free mailing privileges for Mrs. Taft.
Similar courtesies have been extend
ed to widows of other former presi
dents. School tahlets at prices the lowest
that you have seen at the Bates Book

City Spends $1
in Advertising;
Rings Ud S6G0
That Is Average for Detroit as Re
sult cf Investment in
Tourist Trade
Detroit, Mich. For every dollar
that Detroit has ppent in advertising
the ndvantages of the city as a con
vention center and a hospitable stop
ping place for tourists. $600 have
come rolling back into Detroit cash
registers, according to J. Lee Bar
rett, executive vice-president of the
Detroit Convention and Tourist Bu
reau. As a result, the bureau plans to
spend $1,000,000 during the next
three years in telling the world about
Detroit and Detroiters have been
warned to build cash roisters hie:
enough to hold the $000,000,000
that may be expected to return if
the same ratio continues.
Who gets this money the hotels
and flower shops? To answer that
question, the Detroit bureau distrib
uted 40,000 questionnaires ta conven
tion delegates, asking how much
money they sncnt while in Detroit
and for what it was spent. About 25
per cent jof the questionnaires were
answered in detail. And the bureau
web astonished to learn. Mr. Barrett
said, that 26 cents of each dollar
went over the counters for merchan
dise exclusive of flowers, candy, sou
venirs and knicknacks.
The average total spent by earh
guest was approximately $100. al
though some visitors topped the $250
mark. Sven cents of each dollar went
for transportation and the hotel bills
took care of 17;3 cents. Restaurant?
and cafes took "in 20.5 cents, while
11.5 pennies went for gas. oil and
automobile accessories. After spend
ing these amounts, the average con
vention delegate, looking into his
purse, found that he still had S.5
cents of the original dollar for thea
ters and amusements. 3.3 cents for
cab. trolley or bus. and 5.9 cents for
confections and incidentals.
Detroit's experience, according to
Mr. Barrett, serves to ir.dicate that
not only Detroit, but any community
is justified in advertising its assets
to prospective visitors. Every city,
large or small. In his opinisn, has its
own identity "itsspecial attractions,
its individual' letfal colors that may
be attractively-presented. v -
OFFER A HAVEN TO CAP0NE
Rapid City The Black Hills of
South Dakota were offered Friday as
a haven for "Scarface AI" Capone,
exiled from Chicago and Miami. Quot
ing the scriptural admonition, uei
him who is without sin cast the first
stone," Dan Evans, president of the
Rapid City chamber of commerce, in
vited Capone to remove here.
Governor Bullow was not so en
thusiastic. "I'll cast the first 6tone,"
he said.
Evans' letter expressed the belief
the Chicago gang leader soon "would
outlive the intimated crimes that
have been credited to you." He pre
dicted Capone's transformation into
a "law-abiding, upright citizen."

Omaha Grain Exchange memhers
are spending their lives and their
own money to make Omaha the great
terminal market of the central west.
Would you expect men with no other
incentive than a monthly salary to
be keenly interested in. giving the
highest grade of service?' Business
men who are taxpayers and who sup
port the schools and churches on
which the future depends will surely
have a greater interest in serving
customers than would salaried em
ployees of a centralized and distant
ly located corporation.
Omaha Grain Exchange dealers
live in Nebraska, pay taxes to support
Nebraska institutions and are proud
of the business in which they are
engaged. All classes of society are
efficiently served by . the Exchange
and are cordially invited to visit its
trading -floor during the business
hours (9:30 to 1:00) on. any busi
ness day and-watch the keenly com
petitive distribution of grain from
producers to consumers, which in
sures the "highest grade of -service to
both farmer and urban consumer. '

What a Difference
90 Days Make
Today a Toddling Chick ... in 90 days
a proud pullet about to lay. There's some
thing to think about! Tiny bones and little
muscles have grown several times in size . .
a delicate fuzz has sprouted into hundreds of
feathers ... a chick weighing grams has grown
into a pullet weighing pounds ... all in 90
short days!
A wonderful change . . . and only one thing can
do it . . . good feed I This year consider Purina
Startena Chow (mash) and Purina Chick Chow
(scratch) or All-Mash Startena Chow for the first
six weeks . . . and then Purina Growena and Purina
Intermediate Hen Chow until your pullets are lay
ing at 16 weeks.
Put these Chows before your chicks. You will
see pullets that are built right . . . pullets that will
lay eggs aplenty in fall and winter when eggs are
always worth good money.

Killings are ..
Deplored in
U. S. Senate
Period of Barbarism Crested by Vo!
steadissi. S?.ys Senator Tyd
ir gs of Maryland
V.'ashington. April 1. Prohibition
has brought an nnreredentecl era c f
crime and corruption with drunken
ness once ag:ain on the increase. Sen
ator Tydinps ID.), r.f Maryland, told
the senate Tuesday.
He warned his colleagues that un
less official action is taki'n to end
the killing cf innocent citizens hy
dry agents, future historians will re
cord the facts that during the "dry
era," the senate "was in league with
barbarism."
Tydings pointed out th?t l,nc."
persons have lost, their live? in the
"dry war," a. njimber greater thin
the American Vasualities in the war
with Spain. At the same tine, he
tween 1,400 and 1,500 federal .igents
have been dismissed from the service
for discovered corruption.
Mounting steadily during the part
few years, the Maryland senator
pointed out that arrests for drunk
enness in 10 27 numbered 1,800.000
or nearly as many as were arrested
in 1014.
Refutes 'Benefits'
Since national prohibition, he said
4 83,474 persons have been arrested
for dry law violations, while 201,
S09 have been convicted. He rid
iculed the claims of prohibitionists
that bank deposits have increased
since the Volstead act went into ef
fect. Tydings stood at the front of the
senate chamber for over two hours
telling' his colleagues the meaning
of charts and tables spread out be
fore him.
In the front row, sat a group of
"dry" senators, including Brookhart
of Iowa, and Howell of Nebraska,
who interrupted constantly to chal
lenge his conclusions.
Applause burst forth from several
hundred visitors in the gallery when
Tydings retorted to Brokhart's taunt
that Maryland had defeated one of
its senators who voted "wet." Tyd
ings replied:
Cheered by Gallery
"I would rather meet that fate
than to embrace a cause, lacking in
logic, which is dragging the United
States down into crime and corrup
tion and hypocrisy. At least I'm not
running with the crowd."
The applause was so insistent
that Senator Barkley (D.)t of Ken
tucky, who was presiding, threat
ened to clear the galleries if re
peated., Tydings.-. charged ' that "after an
army and ."navy "football game in
Baltimore a few years ego, attended
by the "President, vice president and
other public '.. officials, over 1,000
"glass. flasksT were found on the
grounds: Bee-News. "
