D., Jan. 9—(P)— With one-seventh of this town’s pop- ulation ill with typhoid fever, the Am- erican Red Cross and physicians and hurses from surrounding towns com- bined Monday to combat the spread of the disease and to provide better care for those already stricken. More than 200 persons were ill out of the 1,500 residing here, and steps were taken to move as many patients as possible to an improvised hospi- tal at the city hall and segregate them there. A private sanitarium, with 100 beds, was filled: In several instances whole families were sick, those not ill were being in- noculated as rapidly as possible. Warnings were sent out not to use the city’s water supply, obtained trom | the Missouri river, unless the water is boiled. The water supply was be- lieved to be the source of the infec- tion. Bess Nichols, Dakota-Montana rep- resentative of the Red Cross, arrived here Sunday on instructions from regional headquarters at St. Louis, to aid in caring for the victims. Langer Appears at Executive Offices Governor William Langer had recovered sufficiently Monday from the illness that kept him from his own inaugural, to appear at ‘the executive offices. ‘j His physician, Dr. M. W. Roan, said the governor dressed this morning and was taken by car to the capitol. He took the first auto- mobile ride since his illness Sun- ‘ys Monday he attended a meeting of the state industrial commis- | Sion, of which he is ex-officio chairman, and attended to some other business before returning to the hospital. Dr. Roan said he will spend about an hour at the capital Tues- day and two or three hours Wed- nesday, this schedule being adopt- ed so as not to retard his recov- ery.

STRENUOUS EFFORT TOBALANCE BUDGET BY ECONOMIES SEEN Democratic House Leader Pre- dicts Failure of Income and Sales Tax Bills Washington, Jan. 9.—(P)—Assert- ing he did not believe either the pro- posed raise in income taxes or the sales levy could be enacted at this session, Representative Raieny of Il- linois, Democratic floor leader, Mon- day advocated strenuous efforts to balance the federal budget through economies. He made public a letter he ad- dressed to 14 governors in which he opposed their demands for enactment at this session of a $100,000,000 fed- jeral highway aid bill and asked them to “tell us te are going to get the money for it.” “There is tremendous copont ior da congress to increasing either in- come taxes or levying the sales tax,” Rainey told newspapermen. “I personally believe we can bal- ance the budget without resorting to taxation.” The highway bill to which Rainey referred was passed by the senate last spring and has been reported by the house roads committee. Hundreds of telegrams have been received from governors and state highway officials urging the measure. Rainey said he had received tele- grams from 14 governors and had sent them all the same letter. He asserted not one of the governors had replied.

The cost of the plan to consumers was the center of the storm, but party chieftains remained confident that the Measure would weather a shower of amendments and go to the senate without much change. Millers Sunday lined up with pack- ers in charging that consumers would be forced to shoulder a heavy sales jtax if the measure embodying the domestic allotment farm relief plan is enacted. The bill would guarantee farmers a minimum price through a system of bounties on wheat, cotton, tobacco and hogs. An open letter directed to members of the house by the millers national federation asserted that the plan would cost consumers $1,167,000,000. The federation contended that 32 states and the District of Columbia would pay out more in sales taxes than they would receive in bonuses and that the farmers themselves would pay nearly $300,000,000 of the Proposed taxes. At the same time, Progressive Re- Publicans announced they would sup- Port the bill but would offer amend- ments to prevent pyramiding of the Processing levy and protect the farm- ers’ bounty certificates from creditors. WORLD WHEAT PARLEY PLANNED BY CANADIANS ‘Winnipeg, Jan. 9.—(?)—Plans for a world wheat production conference Probably will be considered at a meet- ing-of Canadian premiers to be held at Ottawa on Jan. 17. . . Already premiers of three provin- cial governments, Canada’s prairie wheat farmers, and students of the wheat situation here and in the Unit- ed States have given the suggestion unqualified approval. The chief wheat exporting countries will be asked—if the Dominion gov- ernment acts on a suggestion the three Premiers made recently—to send rep- resentatives to the round-table dis- cussions dealing with overproduction and low prices. Argentina, Australia, the United States, and Canada would be invited to join the conference. Farmers in western Canada have long stressed a belief that increased production of wheat is fallacious in view of present conditions and declare that the problem can be dealt with only through co-operative action by the largest wheat exporting nations. Delegates to annual meetings of three prairie wheat pools two months ago asked the Canadian government to call such a conference in the belief it would help stabilize wheat prices and solve marketing problems. Unanimous approval of the project was voiced at a meeting here of pre- miers of Saskatchewan, Alberta, and Manitoba. Proponents of the move believe that if the production of wheat can be justified in accordance with needs of importing nations, the world wheat flood could be checked with conse- quent improvement in world prices.

Winner of the Distinguished Serv- ice Cross as well as the French Crotx de Guerre during the World War, Brocopp has been. in army service since 1913, serving with the regular army, holding his commission in the Teserve corps, and taking active part in the state National Guard program. Fraser was appointed adjutant ;seneral July 1, 1917, and has served in that capacity continuously until ernor Lynn J. Brocopp was named to take over the office temporarily through an executive order. He was not required to take the oath of office under the arrangement. The probable length of Brocopp’s term was a matter for speculation in Political circles Monday. The name of Major Earl Sarles, Hillsboro, also @ national guard officer, had been mentioned for the post and rumors have been frequent that Sarles had been promised the appointment. In some quarters it was anticipated that Sarles would be named later. Brocopp has been working in the adjutant general's office lately on records of his own company, but he has not been in the employ of the State department, it was announced. Awarded D. S.
