Sweet clover seed movement continued to lag behind that of last year. The united States Department of Ag riculturc estimates that 40-45 per cent of the crop had left growers hands on November 3 compared with 50 per cent laftt year on the same date. The greatest movement lias taKen place in northeastern South ):ikota, northeastern North Dakota, and northern Illinois while t lie slowest movement, in Montana, Colorado, Wyoming nnd Nebras ka. Itains, which have interfered with threshing, and somewhat In different demand for sweet clover seed have been responsible largely for the slow movement In some sec lions. Growers have not been free sel lers at prices that averaged on No vember 3 $ti:0f, or 35 cents per 100 pounds less than a month ojto and $3.7.1 less thiin a year ago on mostly $5.00-$r..25, basis clean seed, was offered to growers. lieporls on quality confirm earl ier ones to the effect that In prac tically every section except north ern Kansiis tho quality averages belter lhaii, or at least fully as good n, last year. Imports of whito and yellow sweet clover July 1 to October 31, amounted to 205, 900 pounds com pared with 30,100 pounds last year and 2SIO.N0I) pounds two years ago for the same period.

IF YOU WERE A CITY COUNCILMAN? (Contlncec fiom Page One) tronize It to tie betterment of their local scenery and civic cleanliness. A city manage: well trained and hard boiled would pay best maybe in the long run. I would not help raise the prop erty taxes more. They are high enough now. TIic old debts should be paid first 03 they are in any well run business, but no council can pay off old debts as long as the constituency, like a spoiled child, ie rolling cn the floor and howling in anger because it hafi not the new biidge or lights it wants and maybe needs. Number Twentv-Nine Editor Capital Journal: If I were a city councilman? I would strivo to do the best I knew how for the city and the taxpayers. 1 would use my own judgment as to what I considered best for the taxpayers, as- they are the ones who have to pay the bills. We have one of the nicest cit ies Jn the northwest; I don't see wliero the councilmen make very many mistakes, If those that are doing so much howling were in their places, they might do a lot worst. I would let them bowl all they wanted to, and I would do as I thought best. I would surve the people to the best of my ability. 1 would make a trip over the city at least once every thirty days, to Bee the con ditions of the city, and if any body made any complaints 1 would Investigate at once, and If necessary I would report to the rest of the councilmen. I' would try to w6rk In harmony with the peoplo and tor the up building of tho city, At the least cost to the taxpayers, I would suggest having a man to look after the men that work for the city. I don't think it Is fair to tho taxpayers to turn a bunch of men out here and there to work or not work. Of course this would cause extra expense, .ml I think they would come out ; ! " 'he end. As 1 understand the way It is now the street commissioner has this all to do, and with all the rest he has to do, Is too much for one man to do. So glvo him a chance to do the best he can.

P.) Ending of the present system of divided responsibility under the shipping board's control of gov ernment ship operations in the opinion of Secretary Hoover, Is the most pressing need for progress in the nation s merchant marine de velopment. The secretary presented his views on the Question in a recent letter to Chairn.au White of the house committee on marine and fisheries which he made public in ail address to the shipping confer ence convened here today by the chamber of commerce of the United States. Referring to the board's refusal to follow tho views of President Coolidge by vesting operating au thority in the president of the emergency fleet corporation, Mr. Hoover declared Its present per sonnel had "denied responsibility to the president, the one responsi bility which every administrative officer of the government shonH acknowledge rndcr the spirit of the constitution. Mr. Hoover proposed that in the exercise of such authority the tieet corporation head should b? assisted by an advisory board com posed of cabinet officers and the chairman of the shipping board. government support of anion nir should be maintained, he said, but attempt should be made to enlist regional nnd community nl.l In meeting deficits, with the ultimate ium or gcttinpr private ownership to assume the burden. i onignt Portia Mansfield Dancers BACK AGAIN BETTER THAN EVER A Few More Seats Left COME!
