The men making the tests will be dressed in the various types of winter clothing now issued at Fort Lincoln, with a view to determining the suitability of these garments for field use in winter, and to what extent, if at all, their wear inter- feres with the free use of the weap- ons. The board will make recom- mendations for testing of other ar- ticles of equipment as may seem desirable. Export Debenture Proposal May Be Used as Compromise ‘Washington, Jan. 24—(AP)—With theh McNary-Haugen ranks divided over the equalization fee, a new strategy emerged in the farm bloc today, designed toward use of the export debenture plan of the na- tional grange as a vehicle for com- Promise. i This latest peace plan, yet to be} worked. out in detail, provides that) the debenture clause would be so ‘worded as to be satisfactory to the administration and then would be sponsored by some Republican mem- bers of the agriculture committee. Although this plan already has been embodied in a bill by Repre- sentative Jones, Democrat, Texas, Louis J. Taber, master of the na- tional grange, has announced that it would again be introduced in the near future. Stated in the simplest terms, Ta- ber explained, the export debenture plan is an arrangement whereby ex- porters of certain agricultural prod- ucts would receive from the treas- ury department certificates having a fate value established by con- gress, and intended to represent the differences in costs of production here and abroad. Such certificates would be good for their face value inthe payment of import tariffs oa any articles later imported.

R. F. Woodworth of Minneapolis is chairman of the committee, whose membership includes grain me:- chants, elevator managers, millers, grain experts of state agricultural colleges of Minnesota, North Dako- ta, South Dakota and Montana, and representatives of public and busi- ness organizations of Minneapolis and other cities.

In 1925, the average Was one smutty carload in each six.

Examination of the book by Cap- tain R. C. Wright, commanding the company, and by’ Corporal Wade H. Ross, who was a member of the reg- iment overseas, led to the conclu- sion that the message book was the one used at Halstead Dorey, then colonel com- ding the Fourth Infantry. The messages date from July 8 to July 22, 1918, during the fighting on the Marne near Chateau Thierry, and are 21 in number. Some are dupli- cates, copies having probably ken sent by separate runners so that in case one were killed the other might get through with the message. Some of the messages are signed by Col- onel (now General) Dorey, who was wounded. while com- manding the regiment in battle; some are si ed. by Major Nolle, who was killed in action only four days after the date of the last mes- in the book. would have it preserved by the com- pany in a suitable case as a perm- anent souvenir of the ‘“‘ghting in France and the gallant officers whose names appear in the record.
