Immigration Bill
Japanese Exclusion Section
Revised to Meet Objections
of Hughes.
** Washington. March 17.—Revised to
meet the object Iona raised by Secre
tary of State Hughes with regard to
protection of treaties snd to adminis
trative features, the Johnaon immi
gration bill was again favorably re
ported by the house immigration com
mittee today.
Secretary Hughes objections to the
Japanese exclusion section and the
change of the quota basis froS per
cent on the 1910 census to 2 per rent
■on the 1890 census, however, were
disregarded.
The only change in the bill as it
refers to Japanese is in a provision
inserted to protect treaty rights of all
countries. This provision permits the
■ ntry into the United Slates of aliens
coming for purpose of trade, com
merce, business or pleasure.

WHO ELSE WANTS BETTER BREAD?
Give your baking skill
a chance
THE kitchen is fragrant with ravishing odors.
On the table are big hot loaves of crusty brown
bread. In the oven is a light, fluffy cake enriching
v the air with the flavor of hot spices and sugar. On
the window-sill is a fat, juicy pie, its flaky crust all
ready to melt in one’s mouth. And mother, busy
putting things to right, has a happy flush on her
face.
Turning to her son’s wife she says—"I've been
baking for thirty years, but I’ve never found any
flour before that seemed to give me such a sense of
sureness as Omar Wonder Flour.”
Two things distinguish Omar Flour—quality and
uniformity. Omar is a perfected flour of selected
spring and winter wheat. By the most exacting
. tests known in flour milling Omar is maintained at
an absolute quality standard. By actual bakings
in our own kitchen every run of the mill is required
to meet that standard before a sack is shipped.
Go to your grocer to-day and buy a sack of Omar
Wonder Flour. Use it in all your baking, bread,
biscuits, doughnuts, waffles, pies, cakes. You’ll be
rewarded with results rich in satisfaction.
More and better bread from every sack—
or your money back

Fortner Iowa Commissioner
Declare? Plan Only Salvation
of Fraternal Companies.
By AMoeiRted Pretn.
IV* Moines, la.. March 17.—Emory
II. English, former slate commission
er of insurance, called as a witness
before the legislative Insurance in
vestigating committee today, declared
that he believed a "step rate" or cost
basis plan was the only means by
which fraternal insurance companies
might put their older policy holders
on a basis that would not ultimately
leopardlze the standing of their com
panies. Few fraternal companies can,
without changing what is known as
an adequate rate basis, hope to out
live Its policy holders, the former com
missioner declared. As a rule, he add
ed, most fraternal orgnnlatlons have
been heavy losing propositions.
Mr. English was president of the
Iowa Bonding and Casualty company
when that concern quit business in
May, 1022. The suspension, lie told
the committee, was due solely to heavy
losses and the fact that prospects
were not promising for better condi
tions.
Questioned as to a reported cam
paign to buy in stock of the company
before liquidation, the witness said he
advised all stockholders who com
municated with him to hold their
shares, believing they would be worth
more in the future. He had not pur
chased any additional stock in his
company at that time, he testified.
