And yet he merely threatens, mildly, to enforce the law if the board of trade does not put its own house in order. Why the delay? Why not “exercise to the fullest extent” the law as it stands without waiting for the board of trade to take its own good time to comply There are two easy answers. First, to prosecute the men who pune- tured the $2-wheat-balloon without reveal- ing the department of agriculture in the act of pumping up the balloon during the last presidential campaign might prove very difficult. And, second, the men who punctured the balloon broke no existing laws Women lose five Says a street things worn, times as many things railway manager, He doesn't mean but carried. as men, No Use Trying OME road advice from Mayor William Schwartz, of Fremont, Ohio, like this: “Don’t swear at a fellow motorist.
