Develop
New Plan of
..... . f
Designed to Embrace All Natural
Resources of State -Unified
Program is Sought.
Ames, Iowa. Febr. 2. A program,
called the first of its kind to be
adopted in the United States, to orga
nize and provide for conservation
and use of all natural resources, is
being developed, in Iowa, . according
to Mr. Jacob L. Crane, city planning
engineer and landscape architect of
Chicago, who recently conferred with
members of the landscape architec
ture department concerning this
work.
Mr. Crane Is in charge of a pre
liminary survey to the development
of an Iowa conservation plan pro
vided for by action of the late state
legislature. Mr. John Fltzsimmons,
extension landscape architect, who
works in co-operation with the Iowa
board of conservation on state parks.
Is helping with the survey.
The Iowa conservation plan has
three phases: (1) Economic, Includ
ing erosion control, forestry, com
mercial hunting and trapping and
utilization' of underground and sur
face water for water supply, fishing
and other purposes: (2) Natural Sci
entific, including" restoration and
preservation of plant and animal life,
natural phenomena and historical
points: and, (3) Recreational, in
cluding state parks, parkways, beach
es, roadside picnic areas, roadside
beautification and fishing and hunt
ing. '
The purpose of the plan is to pro
vide an economical and efficient way
of utilizing all resources and also to
get the various Interests to co-operate
on a- unified program. ' With a
unified program the fish and game
interests, the foresters, the land con
servationists and others will realfze
the inter-relationship of their work
and will not duplicate each other's
efforts. .
For . instance, putting waste and
badly eroded land Into forests or re
storing a dry lake bed may show a
need for park development and a
fish or game preserve.
Several other states are working
on one phase of 'such a conservation
program.

After ICO Years
Britain Abandons
Fro Tr$& Policy
10 Per Cent Duty on All but Wheat,
Heat, Cotton and Wool
Business Letter.
London, Feb. z. Xevine Cham
berlain, chancellor of the exchequer,
today put an end to a hundred years
of British' free trade by announcing
in the- house - of commons that the
government proposed to i levy a 10
per . cent duty 'oh "aimost the entire
range of the country's imports, to be
effective March 1. f -
t Exemptions will include wheat in
grains meat,' fish of British taking,
raw otton,.raw wool and tea. Also,
)vhen there1 is an,, existing, .duty on
any article,' that ' article will not be
subject , to the additional 10 per cent
tariff. :J, ; f
! An independent advisory commit
tee will bt4 appointed to give its
whole time to- the work f consider
ing the-sphere of "application of the
iiew tariff. It wrl make recommen
dations to the treasury and the treas
ury then will imppse the additional
duties.
Neither , the ge.neral 10 per cent
duty nor the additional duties will
apply to the British dominions nor
to India until after the Imperial con-
ferenct to be held at Ottawa in the
Summer. t
Mr. Chamberlain introduced the
tariff as a measure to correct the
adverse trade balance which has
been mounting at the rate of two
million pounds a week. The cost of
living has "remained miraculously
unaffected" by suspension of the
gold standard, and there has been
a partial improvement in business,
he said, but "we should be deceiving
ourselves if we think we have turned
the corner."
Unemployment figures stre stag
gering, he said, the country's main
industries are moving but slowly and
shipping and agriculture are still in
the depths of depression.
"What we have to seek," said the
chancellor, "is a flexible, elastie plan
which can be readily adapted to suit

rJullen Stands
for Gov. Roose
velt for Office
Wants Nebraska Delegates to Vote
fcr Him at National Convention
to Be Held at Chicago.
j"You know I am for Roosevelt,"
said Arthur Mullen of Omaha Wed
nesday in response to a question,
when he filed at Lincoln for renom
ination as democratic national com
mitteeman .from Nebraska. "Nine
out "of . ten democrats In Nebraska
are In favor of Roosevelt's nomin
ation for president, regardless of
whether they are for Governor Bry
an. The west from the Mississippi
river to the Pacific coast is for Roose
velt, with the possible exception of
Missouri, Oklahoma and Texas where
favorite sons may appear, and their
second choice is for Roosevelt. The
fact is there are no candidate for
president except Roosevelt. All the
delegates to be nominated by the
democrats in Nebraska whom I know
are for Roosevelt, and I am in favor
of the Nebraska delegation helping
Roosevelt when he needs it in the
convention and not wait until after
he is nominated. I believe he can be
more easily elected than any other
democrat if he is nominated."
Mr. Mullen has served three terms
of four years each as national com
mitteeman from Nebraska. By re
quest he has really been acting in
that capacity since 1914 when, the
national committeeman grew tired
of the work and called for assistance.
Mr. Mullen was first elected in 1916
when he defeated Mayor Jim Dahl
man of Omaha,
Under the Nebraska primary law
which calls for the election of na
tional committeemen . and. delegates
at the primary election a candidate
for committeeman must file a peti
tion signed by 00 party electors in
each of the congressional districts

counties. Mr. Mullen filed a petition
containing 3,950 names. He has the
necessary 500 names in the six old
districts and also In the live new

live in eighty-four of the ninety-two
