TIPTON, Iowa, September 22.—The militia was called upon today to en- force the State’s bovine compulsory tu- berculin test law, Hurriedly mobilized members of the National Guard numbering nearly 2,000 began arriving on special trains as a result of a disturbance . yesterday in which 200 Cedar County farmers re- belled against 65 sherif’s deputies, who accompanied two veterinarians in an attempt to enforce the law. Greeted With Barrage. ‘When the deputies arrived in auto- mobiles at the farm of Jason Lenker, the farmers greeted them with a bar- rage of mud and rocks. Several win- dows in the officers’ automobiles were broken. One of the deputies was pushed into the mud as he stepped from his car. The officers then withdrew from the scene and Sheriff Foster Maxon appealed to James E. Risden of the State De e control, Adjt. Gen. W. H. Bailey sald that martial law would be declared in the entire county as soon as the troops had established their headquarters. At the same time Gov. Dan Turner, who authorized the mobilization, said he would return to Iowa from Washi without delay to wage an unrelenting campaign for enforcement of the law. He was in Washington at the time when the disturbance occurred in the interest of farm relief. The fight of Cedar County objectors against the tuberculin test has flared intermittently since last March, when veterinarians were refused permission to test cattle on the E. C. Mitchell farm. Farmers Enjoined. On August 5 Judge F. O. Ellison en- joined farmers from interfering with the tests. On August 21 veterinari were repulsed in attempts to continue their work. At one place a bombard- ment of eggs and water greeted the testers. In their fight """“fih the courts and in appeals to the Legislature for repeal of the tuberculin test law farmers con- tend that the law is unconstitutional and have asserted that the test is not reliable. Others objected to State vet- erinarians, and some submitted their cattle to the tests after permission to select their own veterinarians was granted. Objections to the reimburse- ment for condemned cattle also have been frequent. the Government pays a percentage of the loss, while the bal- ance is borne by the cattle owners. In several cases the law has been held valid by the Iowa Supreme Court. The United States Supreme Court re- fused to review the case, maintaining that the question was not a Federal one, VETERANS TO SEEK $20,000 FOR NEEDY Will Hold Armistice Day Jubilee at the Washington Audi- torium.
