The new crisis arose’suddenly with the stormy 70th session of the diet @ue for only a few more hours of nor- mal life. Realizing there was no chance of pushing through the bills they con- sidered vital for national defense, the army leaders, in co-operation with the navy, brought pressure to bear on the premier to advise the emperor to order the dissolution, affecting the lower ‘house.

Y.) told the senate ‘Wednesday the sitdown strike hed} been “provoked by the long-standing ruthless tactics of a few great cor- Porations,” The New York senator, author of the labor relations act now pending before the supreme court, said the “root cause for the present economic warfare” which flared up so spectacu- larly in the General Motors and Chrys- ler sitdown strikes was “the lack of ower in the federal government” to enforce the Wagner law.

Think Soll Satisfactory Adams and Cooley visited the peni- tentiary isrigation layout with Coun- ty Agent H. O. Putnam and said the soil looked satisfactory for beet-grow- purposes. Their visit stimulated the inten- tion of the state water board to ar- range for tests of sugar beets and other crops in this erea this year, in- | spired Putnam and members of the Association of Commerce irrigation committee to do likewise. The prob- ability is that plots of beets will be planted at several points in this area under both irrigated and dry condi- tions, to test. the yield and quality. Adams said his firm would be de- lighted to co-operate in making these tests.

However, the rosy dreams caused by contemplation of a beet industry did not dominate the thoughts of the As- Soclation of Commerce committee which met Tuesday afternoon to dis- cuss ways of stimulating interest in irrigation in this district. Beets Shipped 180 Miles Adams said beets are shipped 180 miles to the factory at Sidney and he would be glad to get some from this district but beets on a commercial basis are not in the picture here just now. ‘The local committee hopes that the start here will be on an alfalfa, corn, potato basis, Adams previously had approved of that, explaining that beets and alfalfa are combined in the Sidney district on a three or four year rotation basis. After about three years, he said, the alfalfa begins to get thin and it is time to change. At the meeting Tuesday Putnam premised his co-operation in trying to interest farmers who are near to water in trying a little irrigation this year. Co-operation of the water board in this effort was promised by K. W. Simons, local member of the state set-up. FORKS PIONEER DIES Grand Forks, N.
