Washington, D. C. Sharp criticism
of the administration of certain federal
laws and agencies affecting the farm
ers was contained in the third report
of the president's agricultural 'commis
sion. It dealt with the conduct of the
department of agriculture, interstate
commerce commission, federal reserve
board, tariff commission and internal
revenue bureau.
Charging that administration of
some departments is seriously handi
capped by the interdepartmental jeab
ousies, the commission said it found
two "unfortunate results.'1 These were
that the "dog-in-the-manger" attitude
of one department may retard develop
ment of another, ana that rivalry may
prompt proposals for departmental ex
pansion. The report declared that the country
lacked a unified credit system, a con
dition harmful to agriculture; that the
interstate commerce commission has
"failed or been unable to recognize its
rosponbiollty as advocate of the ship
per and has developed into a court,"
and that the tariff commission can
materially assist agriculture by "func
tioning actively along tbe lines of its
constituted powers and responsibili
ties." Complete separation of the regu
latory and service functions of gov
ernment departments was recommend
ed and It was urged that uniform
stale plant and animal quarantine
regulations be devised, and that co
operative marketing organizations be
given fuil benefit of tax exemption.
Athens. With neither money nor
manpower, but with the populace
worked up to a fever heat over what
Is considered an. indignity on the
nation's church, Greece talked loud
ly of going to war again with her old
enemy, Turkey.
The government went so far as to
sever diplomatic relations with An
gora, recalling the charge d'affaires,
and then decided to compromise on a
nation-wide protest and an appeal to
the League of Nations.
Turkey expelled the ancient Oecu
menical patriarchate of the Greek
Catholic church, which had been lo
cated in Constantinople since 1600.
After Turkey had soundly whipped
Greece in the war started by King
Conatantine, a treaty drawn up at
"Lausanne stipulated that the patri
an hates of the orthodox church, es
tablished for centuries in Constanti
nople, should not be disturbed.
The Greek government contends
that Turkey has broken the treaty and
that other bishops of the church are
destined for expulsion.
The Oecumenical patriarch, as the
name implies, was head of the Greek
Catholic xhuroh throughout the world,
and his being driven out by the Turks
is considered an affront by every pious
Greek. '
Boardman Trims Condon

ANOTHER MAN KILLED
IN FIGHT AT HERRIN
Fossil VVins Game
True to tradition Fossil can't be
defeated on her own floor. She de
feats each visitor with certain scores.
It appears that a peculiarly shaped
court is largely responsible for the
high scores of Fossil. While Boardman
put up a hard fight, they were able
to score only 8 points to Fossil's- 8J.
The Fossil team gave tbe Boardman
Hoys a little banquet following the
game.
The basket ball L.ys report a fine
time on their trip being entertained
royally at hot! London and Fossil. At
Condon they were guests at a party.

learning a few simple facts of elect
rification. On Friday, February 13 the boys'

Arlington. Let's have a good big
crowd of Boardman rooters at this
game.
Herrin, ill. - Another pistol fight
stirred Herrin early -Sunday. When
the smoke had cleared away it was
found that a man representing himself'
as an officer seeking to arrest a klans
man had been shot to death In the
Lymar hotel by Kui'us Whit son, police
man, after the alleged officer had
wounded Sim Stephens, policeman,
and terrorized the hotel employes. The
latest affray came while Sheriff Galli
gan was seking martial law in Herrin.
Quiet prevailed tonight.
The killing brought the death toll
in the klan-anti klan fight to 14.
The coroner's jury exonerated Whit
son. "It was merely a case of an officer
of the law performing his duty," Major
Davis remarked.
The major said he had reported the
condition to Adjutant-General Black,
but had made no recommendations.
He said his personal opinion was that
martial law was "not necessary at
this time."
The county health officer authorized
deputy sheriff Juck Oorham to close
the Boardman Schools indefinitely.
This happened at 9 :U0 Wednesday
morning after the work of the day
was Well under way. While the teach
era were somewhat surprised at the
suddenness of the message, it was not
entirely unlooked for.
In-as-much as everything was in full
swing for the big Friday night vaud
eville by the local high school, it seems
a pity to Interrupt this attraction at
this particular time. The new date
will be set as soon as school is again
called. Watch for tbe day, or you'll
miss the real treat of the winter.
order to limit the fires you should not
play With matches or have them where
a small child will be able to get them.
Not light a stove with kerosene, or
burn brush or shrubbery close to barns
or bouses. If yon are in a building
when fire starts, you should keep cool,
and not try to be the first one out of
t he building, or scream. Small child
ren are often hurt by being pushed
by older ones.
No person should play or walk care
lessly on the street. Some ways to
prevent accidents op the streets are :
(1) Keep to the right in walking and
entering doorways; 12) Do not run
in front of a car crossing a street. In
crossing a busy street, look both ways.
When you get an opportunity, then
cross quickly. C8) Do not steal rides
on a car or wagon. (4) Do not skate
with roller skates on streets. (5)
When waiting for a car, stand on the
curb, not In the street. (6) Do not put
your head or band out of a car win
dow. (7) Watch for cars and teams
when getting off a car. (8) Do hot try
to dodge a vehicle approaching you,
for the driver will be able to avoid
striking you. ( Do not forget that
Die proper place to cross a street Is
at a cross walk.
You should not handle any kind
of wire banging on poles or trees, for
there may be an electric current pas
sing through it.
In order to prevent skin diseases
from spreading, you should not borrow
or lend towels, do not use common rol
ler towels when soiled, boil them., and
paper towelk should be used in public
places. Even bo rowed beoks are dan
gerous. In case you are thrown in deqp wat
er by an over-turning boat, allow your
self to sink so that your nose is just a
1 ove tbe water, with support of a boat
or log. If you are not able to catch
bold of anything, lie flat on your back
with your arms stretched out. Be
careful not to lift arms, head, or feet,
for this will cause you to sink. The
best way to avoid danger of drowning
is to learn to swim, but you should
not be reckless and swim too far or go
In swimming without someone near by.
Remember that sighs are not mere
ly for reading, but are intended to pro
inote safety by being obt;yed.
TAX TEST SUIT IS AWAITED
Decision Would Affect States Having
Community Property Law.
Washington. D. C. The treasury
has decided, in the event it wins its
test suits on the federal government's
taxation rights under the California
community property law, tp apply that
decision of assessment of taxes in the
seven other states having community
property laws.
The test case will result from the
treasury's announced refusal to refund
income taxes to California taxpayers
to whom it has declined to grant the
privileges accorded Under. that state's
community laws.
Besides California, Arizona. Idaho,
Louisiana, Nevada, New Mexico,
Texas and Washington have commun
lty property laws, and most of them
have been operative for many years
The school house was thoroughly
