MICHAELSON LOSES COUNT
Chicago The board of election
commissioners announced Thursday
that recount of ballots showed Rept
A. Michaelson, owner of the
"leaky trunk" brought into Key
West. Fla.. last year, had lost his
bid for a sixth term in congress from
the seventh Illinois district.
James C. Moreland, his opponent
for the republican nomination at
the April primary, gained 613 votes
in the recount and this took the lead
from Michaelson by 557 votes. The
incumbent had been announced the
winner by 5G votes in the original
canvass.
Representatives Michaelson wa
elected to congress in 1920 and had
served continuously since. He was
indicted in 1929 after liquor was
found" in his trunk at Key West, but
was acciuitted when a brother-in
law assumed the blame.
The recounted ballots will be turn
ed over to the canvassing board for
recheck.
Gag Threat
Draws Fire
of Johnson
Objects to Vote After Only Eigh
Days of Debate; Promises
Battle to the End.
Washington, July 17 After
a series fo conferences senate
leaders reversed their decision
for a night session tonight on
the London naval treaty and
treaty advocates expressad con
fidence that an agreement could
be worked out for limiting de
bate. Washington, July 17. Cloture
was threatened in the senate Thurs
day, at the instance of President Hoo
ver, to another debate and jam
through the London naval treaty.
Gag-rule would be applied next
Tuesday, under the petition circu
lated by Senator James E. Watson
of Indiana, the administration iloor
leader, after a dramatic clash with
Senator Hiram Johnson of California
leader of the treaty foes.
Indignant and infuriated by the
threat of gag-rule after only eight
days of debate, which has revolved
more around tne secret documents
than the pact, Johnson flatly refused
to agree to a vote on the treaty or
to limit debate beginning on Tues
day.
Johnson Defiant.
Defying administration leaders to
use the ruthless power of the ma
jority, the Californian challenged
them to clap on cloture, which will
gag the senate by limiting each sen
ator to an hour s debate.
The debate reached its most stir
ring pitch when Johnson dramati
cally declared that he would "ask no
quarters" of treaty advocates and
was prepared to give his life fighting
"the iniquities of a treaty that deals
with the future and the defense" of
America.
Although Watson obtained the sig
natures of 35 senators on the cloture
petition, he hesitated about present
ing it in the hope that he might ob
tain an agreement from the treaty
foes to limit debate. A vote on the
cloture, which requires a two-thirds
majority to adopt, must be taken
within 48 hours after it is presented.
Circulates Petition.
Watson has opposed invoking clo
ture, but the restlessness of republi
can senators which threatens to
break a quorum, forced him into ac
tion. After a conference with the
president, at which the wisdom of
imposing gag-rule on a question in
volving the national defense was dis
cussed, Watson circulated the peti
tion.
Speaking with the force and rap
idity of a steam-riveter, which set the
chamber to vibrating, Johnson in
spired the foes of the treaty with his
defiance to the gag-rule threat. He
said:
"I am engaged in a task here con
cerning this treaty that far trans
cenus in importance the leadership
of the senator from Indiana or any
otner man s personality. The con
test in which I am engaged will re
ceive from me the best that is in me,
I ask no quarter from any source or
under any circumstances.
Asks No Favors.
"I know no other way to fight
when I am fighting for my coun
try, than, if necessary, to die,
and I am willing, sir, so far as
this debate is concerned and the
treaty is concerned, that the sen
ator from Indiana and the great
majority for and whom he
speaks in this body may do just
exactly as they please. Omaha

Harvest Half
Done; Yield is
Over Average
Wheat Is Running 18.G Eushels Per
Acre; Corn Doing Well; Farm
Prices Are Down.
Lincoln, Neb., July 17. Over one-
half of the wheat crop in the state
has been harvested and the yields ot
all small grains are expected to be
above the average according to the
mid-month crop report made by bank
ers to the state and federal division
of agricultural statistics.
The average wheat yield will be
IS. 6 bushels, bankers say, which is
2 bushels below the estimate made
by them at this time last year. The
final yield estimate for Nebraska last
year was 16 bushels per acre. Ot
the important wheat growing dis
tricts, the southeastern counties have
the highest reported yield of nearly
20 bushels per acre. The lowest esti
mate is slightly above 17 bushels for
the extreme western counties which
make up the leading spring wheat
district.
Corn has not suffered any great
damage from recent hot weather or
drouth but due to late planting is
not as far advanced as usual at this
date. Bankers say the condition is
S5 per cent compared to 90 per cent
last year. A few reports indicate
that the early plantings have been in
jured by drouth and heat. The high
est condition of corn is reported in
the north, central district with a con
dition of 8 per cent, conditions in
other parts of the state rangin
downward to S0.1 per cent in the
southwestern counties.
Barley yields appear favorable with
a state estimate of 30.3 bushels and
yields farying from 23.6 bushels in
the southwestern counties to over 30
bushels in most other districts.
Estimates of oats yields range from
35 bushels in the south central coun
ties to 19.2 bushels in the panhandle
district.
Farm prices continue to decline
and are much below those of last
year. Prices as reported on July 15
are: Corn, 63 cents; wheat, 61 cents;
oats, 29 cents; alfalfa, per ton $8,34;
hogs per cwt., $S.2S; butter fat per
pound, 27 cents; eggs per dozen, 14c.
The drop in prices for the above prod
ucts from June 15 to July 15, 1930,
eported bankers are as follows: Corn
per bushel, 3 cents; wheat per bushel,
20 cents; oats per bushel, 9 cents;
alfalfa per ton, 86 cents; hogs per
cwt., 86 cents; eggs per dozen, 1
cent. Butterfat alone showed an in
crease of 2 cents per pound. World-

Grocer Norris
Filed Illegally,
Says Judge Goss
Supreme Court Justice Overrules De-C-sion
of Frank Karsh Selves
Tansb is Primary.
Lincoln, Neb., July IS. George
W. Norris of Broken Bow, grocer who
filed in opposition to the present
senator, was denied a place on the
republican primary ballot tonight by
Chief Justice Goss of the supreme
court.
Justice Goss announced his deci
sion immediately after an evening
session of the hearing on an appeal
from a ruling Thursday of Secretary
of State Frank Marsh that the Brok
en Bow grocer's filing was legal,
though not actually received in the
office on the scheduled time.
Summarizing the case, Justice Goss
held that Nebraska primary election
laws regulating the filing of certi
ficates of nomination were mandatory
in defining the time limit in which
certificates were to be placed in the
hands of the secretary of state.
In the Norris case the filing, sent
from Broken Bow by registered mail
July 2, did not reach Lincoln until
July 3, and then too late for deliv
ery that day, the final for legal ac
ceptances. The next day being a holiday, the
filing was not delivered until the fol
lowing morning about 10 o'clock.
Says Law Mandatory.
In announcing his ruling Judge
Goss declared:
"The time for filing expired at
midnight, July 3. This statute is
mandatory, and no one is given
authority to extend this time for
filing of candidates.
"The peace and well being of
the people required that there
must be an end somewhere to the
controversies arising over candi
dacies." Under the ruling of Marsh an
nounced Thursday, the name George
W. Norris would have appeared twice
on the ballot for the republican sen
atorial nomination, designated 'Mc
Cook" and "Broken Bow." The sec
retary of state ruled that the filing
received by mail at his office July 5,
bearing postmarks of July 3 were
legal notwithstanding the time limit
expired at midnight July 3.
No. 2 May File as Independent.
Had Grocer Norris supplemented
his registered parcel with a special
delivery stamp, attorneys pointed out
during the hearing today, the filing
would have been regularly delivered
on the final day.
Supporters of the Broken Bow man
tonight were unable to predict wheth
er he might attempt to remain in the
race by filing as an independent can
date after the primary election Aug
ust 12. William Shuinan, Norty
Platte, counsel for the grocer, said he
would "not hazard a guess, but that
such a turn in events would not be
illegal."
Justice Goss' decision, supplement
ed with his comment that he deplored
"the injection of politics into the
hearing," closes the matter perman
ently and leaves no avenue to ap
peal, it was stated.
Senator Not to Withdraw.
After the court's ruling, John P.
Robertson, secretary of Senator Nor
ris, announced that the senator will
"not withdraw from the race."
"He will run on the primary bal
lot," Robertson said.
Frientls of the senator had indi
cated that he might withdraw and
campaign for re-election as an inde
pendent in case, of a elecision in favor
of the Broken Bow man's filing.
The court's ruling leaves the re
publican senatorial primary race a
three-cornered affair between Senator
Norris, State Treasurer W. M. Steb
bins and Aaron Read of Madison.
Justice Goss hatl declared a recess
at 6 p. m. tonight, after hearing ar
guments from 2 p. m., in order to
permit Charles E. Matson, counsel
for Secretary of State Frank Marsh,
to complete his argument.
At the start of the hearing today
Justice Goss had overruled a motion
for continuance of the hearing until
a later date.
Written Opinion Later.
Arrayed on both sides were Attor
ney General Sorensen, appearing pri
vately as a "friend of the court," and
John P. Breen of Omaha, for the sen
ior senator, while Charles E. Matson
appeared for the Broken Bow man.
Goss indicated his verbal decision
would be supplemented later with a
written opinion on the case.
Asserts Friend of Norris.
"Under ordinary circumstances,'
Sorensen said when the hearing
opened, "I would be here as the sec
retary's counsel, but it seems that
the opinion of my office in the mat
ter, prepared after much research and
study, was not satisfactory to him
and so he selected private counsel
to assist him.
"It will be charged, I know, that
I am here in the interest of Senator
Norris. That charge will not be al
together untrue. To his campaigns
I have given time, energy and a lit
tle of my savings. But my reward
has been great. It has brought me
his friendship.
"No one claims," he concluded,
that the filing of this Norris No.
2 was made in good faith. The fact
that the alleged filing was made the
last day. the fact that the candidate
is in hiding, and the fact that he
used the exact name, together with
the middle initial of the senator, in
dicates an intent to defraud the vot
ers." James K. Marsh of Omaha today
filed his withdrawal as an opponent
of the secretary of state. He did not
supplement the affidavit with, a

Nebraska to
Lose One Seat
in Congress
Plan Redisricting Since New Popu
lation Not Enough to Justify
Six Representatives
Partial state census returns for
1930 confirm previous statement?
that Nebraska will lose one con
gressman when the reapportionment
of congressional sents is made, ac
cording to dispatches from Wash
ington. Nebraska's increase in popu
lation was not great enough to on
able the state to retain the present
six congressmen in the face of popu
lation gains in other states.
California, New York, Michigan,
Texas and New Jersey made the
largest proportional population gains.
California is scheduled to be allotted
nine new congressmen, giving that
state 20.
New York will gain one new mem
ber, Michigan three, Texas two and
New Jersey probablj' two more con
gressmen. Missouri Loses 3
Missouri seems scheduled to be
the heaviest loser. Three congress
men may be lost in that state. In
diana. Iowa. Kentucky and Missis
sippi will lose two congressmen each.
Nebraska. Kansas, North Dakota will
lose one congressman each. Other
states in the same predicament are
Alabama. Louisiana, Tennessee and
Virginia in the south, and Maine,
Massachusetts, Pennsylvania and
Vermont in the east.
The next Nebraska legislature
will have the task of redistrictir.g
the state into five congressional dis
tricts instead of six as at present.
Eliminate 4th District
Under the five-district arrange
ment the First district will be con
siderably larger than at present, the
Third and Sixth will be slightly en
larged and the Fifth will be made
much bigger.
The plan most discussed among
politicians calls for elimination of
the present Fourth congressional dis
trict, making the present Fifth dis
trict the Fourth and the "Big Sixth"
the Fifth district.
