Mr. Jones participated in consider- ation and discussion of the proposed “It is a logical proposal but whether it is practical, as far as its actual aplication is concerned remains to be determined. We do not know just ‘how the arrangement for increasii the duty as the protein content in- creases would work out.” The plan, in brief, provides the present vasic 42-cent tariff would ‘apply to wheat with protein content of 11 per cent. or less and that for’ each ‘3 of 1 per cent additional pro- tein content, the cat would be in- to cpply to flour containing 10 ‘per cent protein.

In a report to the police yesterday, Doctor E. W. Meyer, the physician, said he and his assistant, H. Barnett, had called at Miss Rubens’ home to take her to the sanitarium and that as they were getting into his automo- bile, the actress turned and bolted down the main business thoroughfare of Hollywood. “Barnett and I gave chase,” the physician said, “and called for Miss Rubens to stop. But she ran faster, started screaming that she was being kidnaped and tore off her hat and Gloves and threw her purse away.” The two men overtook Miss Rubens at an oil station.

The revision is carried in senate bill No. 58, O. H. Olson and Magnuson. Martin 8. Hagen, manager of the hail insurance department, simplified matters for the committee by picking out of a copy of the bill the revised parts and explaining their intent. Flax is singled out in the first change in the existing law and given an extension of hail loss protection until September 20. Other crops retain the limit of September 15, unless cut | earlier. There is a new provision for no in- | demnity on abandoned crops. In a difficulty over any insurance, a board consisting of the governor, attorney general and insurance com- missioner would be empowered to) cancel the risk. Another section requires the name CHR Y .

Date for withdrawal of the insur+ ance is changed from June 14 to June 10. Otherwise the state would furnish four days free ‘insurance if no renewal follows. Cash renters’ withdrawals are to be made easier. by substituting an affi- davit for a copy of the rent contract. Three days time is to be the new limit for reporting damages. This; will prevent belated report when the | facts have kecome difficult to ascer- tain definitely. July 10 is set as the limit date for reinstatement of in-| surance. The bill. as proposed, also makes compensation to the counties and inty auditors more explicit. The aditors are to get half of the $1 paid counties on each 1000 acres of crop land by the hail department. Under the proposed revision, crop- Pers also are allowed to revise their crop acreage estimate when they have ! not sown the total reported to the assessor, as in case they decide to summer-fallow some of the land al- ready turned in as for crops.
