Wisconsin FIFTY YEARS OF HOWA Commencement Exercises a stitution for Higher Educa ferred Upon 112 Grad Addresses by Secre Bishop Harding kee's Phenome gress Special to The Wisconsin Blade WASHINGTON, D. C. June 7—Under ideal skies and amid stately alms on the broad campus, the fifth annual commencement of Howard University was held Wednesday afternoon, with the largest attendance known in many years. President I. Stanley Durkee, making his first appearance on an occasion of this kind, was greeted with prologed applauses when he arose to begin the impressive processing of the graduating class, the faculty and the Alumni of the University, a glint of bright colors in the sunlight as it wended its way across the greenward from Carnegie Library to the al fresco auditorium near Clark Hall. The scene was picturesque and imposing. Secondary Lane and Bishop Harding Give Wise Counsel The orator of the day was the Hon. Franklin K. Lane, Secretary of the Interior, the branch of the government having control of the University. In his able address, Secretary Lane emphasized the futility of force and unlawful acts in the solution of great social and economic questions and the power of time and right systems of education to bring permanent peace among peoples and nations. The present unrest thrust the land he attributed to the too prevalent desire of groups of individuals to get something without work. No enduring success nor any business can be achieved by foundation of the oratory or any get-rich-quick nostrum. The Secretary laud stress upon the value of good citizenship, of the necessity for practical training to meet the responsibilities of life, and gave as a pertinent example of the failure of false standards in the striving for power, the downfall of the autocratic German nation. The Right Reverend Alfred Harding, Bishop of Washington, was introduced by Dr. Durkee, and spoke along the lines laid down by Secretary Lane. He declared service to humanity to be the royal road to progress and to be the path to the triumph that attributs to the valor, skill and loyalty displayed by the colored soldiers who added in the recent war for liberty and democracy, and insisted that the Stars and Stripes should wave for all Americans alike, from ocean to ocean. He was proud of the record made by the millions of Negroes since emancipation, and one of the uplifting agencies that would continue to leaven the lump of intellectual and moral darkness that make for the hardships and inequalities with which the social and economic leaders of the age have to deal. Both Secretary Lane and Bishop Harding were liberal. Music was furnished by a section of the regimental band of the 388th Infantry, and patroltic airs were played at intervals through the program, including "The Star Spangled Banner," which brought the immense throng to its feet in spontaneous enthusiasm. The Brooks delivered the invocation and Red C. Garner produced the benediction. President Durkee Confers Degrees President Durkee, by authority vested in him by the University, conferred degrees upon one hundred and twelve graduates, constituting the "Class of 1919." In the College of Arts and Sciences thirty-four candidates received the degree of Bachelor of Arts and seventeen the degree of Bachelor of Science. A touching incident in connection with this part of the program was that John Spurlam Williams, who passed away just a few days prior to his graduation, but had fully won his honors. The entire class stood uncovered as President Durkee solemnly conferred the post-mortem distinction upon their departed fellow-student. Four young men were given special mention and honor because of their military service, and financial consideration will be required they may later gain the degree they desire. This class was presented for honors by Dean Kelly Miller. In the other departments the following awards of degrees were made: In the Teachers' College, "A. B. in Education," seven; "B. S. in Education," nine. In the School of Theology, "Bachelor of Divinity," three. In the School of the Dental College, "D. D. S." one. The course in dentistry was lengthened from three to four years). In the Pharmaceutical College, degree of "Phar. D." five. In the School of Law, degree of Bachelor of Laws, fourteen. In Graduate work, the degree of Master of Arts in the Field of Education was conferred upon Helen Brooks Irvine. The candidates from the Dental College were acting Dean Thomas W Turner; from School of Theology by Dean D Butler Pratt; from the Medical College by Dean E. A. Ballock; from the School of Law by Acting Dean William H. Fichards. In addition to the presentation of diplomas, President Durkee awarded the following prizes: Alpha Kappa Sorority prize, highest scholarship, Miss Jennie Mustapha; Senior Fellowship in Physics at Clark University, Worcester, Mass.; valued at $300.

Cook, Dean of Junior College and Professor of Sociology, Kelly Miller Ground will be broken in a few days for the new building on the east side of the campus, to be the home of the School of Theology, forming the nucleus of a new center in this vicinity and many other substantial improvements are in contemplation. The College of Theology plans to plant by the ever-progressive President Durkee, is moving rapidly toward a realization. 1. Troop "K" is not only made up of gentlemen but of true soldiers, each man has a push in him that makes him go forward. Energy, love of activity and above all things the absence of fear. They are a few of the characteristics of the men and officers of Troop "K" 10th cavalry. August 27, 1918, when the hostile Mexicans shot and killed a guard across the international boundary lines at Nogales, Arizona, "K" Troop was the first to reach the scene. As the troop reached the edge of the town the great clouds of dust arose from under the hoods of our well trained horses and formed a barrage for our advance. 3. Arm signals were visible; but that clear familiar voice of Captain Morlledge and Lieut. Lockwood rang the alarm of the enemy. Sergeant, who repeated the command and the movement was executed without a hitch. 4. Upon reaching the line, fight on foot was sounded by Bigger Rose; the horses were led to a place of safety and the troopers advanced; in thin lines or waves, nothing was overlooked. There were three cavalry troops on the line. Troop "K" being the center troop, Troop "K" being the center troop, all of whom were on the line. The officers suffered the greatest bosses. Capt. Hungerford was killed while leading his troop into action and Colonel Herman and Captain Caron were wounded, but the fighting spirit was never broken. All orders were carried out with such precision and thrones, that after three hours of hard fighting, the enemy was overrun and white flags galore. Recall and assembly was sounded by the bugler. 5. We were assembled in town, Col. Fred J. Herman commanding 1st squadron, 10 cavalry, and established an outpost and awaited orders from General Cabell. Sgt. Sgt. Kexesa (Alas) Mountain Loon saved the life of Sgt. Green during the thackest of the fray. After being shot in the shoulder the above named Sgt. prevented the Mexicans from firing the second shot at him. Sgt. Rough House Jackson had the sling of his rifle shot into. We are aware of the facts that flying bullets are no respector of person but our casualties were very small. Killed men wounded. Sergent Greene, Corporal Reynolds, Pvt. Waltz. 7. The intelligence officer reported 104 graves on the Mexican side of the line, and every bed in the hospital was occupied by the wounded. The many friends of Mrs. Annette Long will be glad to hear she is convalescent. She is very grateful to all for their kindness during her illness.

The views of the tannery official are thus expressed in a communication sent to Dr. George E. Haynes, director of Negro Economics, Department of Labor: "To say that the work of the colored man is satisfactory would be putting in the effort. We have always considered their work when we donated others and have paid them accordingly. "Of the 52 employees from this plant who entered the service 22 were colored. Of these a number have returned and the pleasing part of their return was that they immediately came to us and went to work. We have tried not only to make room for those who were in our employ but also for a great number who were not in our employment before entering the service. There cannot be to much said of the employees who were used during the war. We purchased at the tannery $66,000 in bonds, notes and stamps, and when it is considered that the employees are 60 percent colored, it is evident that the colored men stood right back of their colored brothers in the service. As we were 90 percent government producers, the colored man's work was the foundation of victory and equal credit is due him for his contribution in the industrial debt. His contribution to the Red Cross and other war work drives was very creditable; in the United War Work drive every man in the tannery donated a day's work, and in the Fourth Liberty loan every man bought a bond." The colored employees of the plant have recently formed a band which makes its first appearance during the Victory Loan drive. ST. LOUISE Chauffeurs will be in a class by themselves.

Deep down in the breast of the average American is a sense of justice which can be awakened by a manly stand on the side of right. We are wondering if Senator Reed is correct in his estimate of the American people when he appeals to their race prejudices in order to defeat the League of Nations. 'Tis a base appeal! It is safe to predict that whatever the disclosures of the investigations of the recent bomb explosions, the black man will not be found involved in them. He resorts to more peaceful, if less effective means to right his many wrongs. THE DEATH OF MADAME WALKER The death of Madame C. J. Walker has removed from the scene of action, at a time when we can ill afford to lose her, a woman whose life ought to be an inspiration the ambitious strivings of every colored youth. Born of humble par- - entage and with few opportunities for youthful improvement, by force of her own initiative and thru the indomitable spirit of her own personality, she forged ahead to a point beyond that which she ever anticipated in the wildest dreams of her rather unpromising youth. Her life is a lesson. The obstacles she overcame, others may hope to surmount. A measure of the success that she attained, others may aspire to win. If she did no more than this her life has not been in vain. But her life was more than this. She was of a genial personality, generous in the distribution of the fruits of her genius and a liberal patron of the best in her people. Her loss will be felt beyond the circle of her immediate friends and her niche left vacant for years to come. May she rest in peace. AMERICA'S LYNCHINGS According to the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, sixty-three Negroes are known to have died at the hands of white mobs in 1918. The war can not be blamed for this outrageous record, for only two persons were lynched on account of disloyal utterances, and they were white men not included on the total of Negroes lynched. One Negro was lynched after being accused of quarreling with his employer, another for creating a disturbance, and three on a charge of stealing a hog. Contrary to the general belief, only 20 per cent of the victims were accused of attacks on white women. Georgia led all other states with nineteen recorded lynchings, while Texas was second with eleven. "Thus we have the spectacle of an army of some 2,000,000 engaged on another continent in a war for the fundamental rights of the common citizens of the nation that sent these men forth not only took the law into their own hands in violation of fundamental rights, but indulged in orgies of the most degraded savagery for which there is no parallel among civilized peoples except in German army's treatment of Belgian citizens. While the civilized world was still white with anger over the execution of an English nurse by German soldier, a Georgia mob visited the most horrible cruelties upon a Georgia woman who, had she not been killed by the mob, would have become a mother in a month. Americans do not need to be reminded that lynching is wrong. While education may to a certain extent lessen the evil, it is not so necessary as the selection of law officers possessed of common courage. Even some southern Governors lack the courage to defy a mob, and they encourage lynching by failing to punish mob leaders. As long as Southern communities elect moral cowards to office, they will have to wear the brand of lynchers. Northern states are not entirely blameless, but as a rule northern mob leaders are punished. The south must come to this point before it can be reckoned with as capable of reform. —Indianapolis News. THE HOUSTON INFORMER We are in receipt of the initial number of that newly established and promising infant, The Huston Informer, published at Huston, Tex., by that able quill pusher and all around newspaper man, Clifton F. Richardson, formerly of the Houston Observer. We welcome it into the field where the harvest is ripe, the laborers few and the rewards uncertain. If this issue is to be its standard it bids fair to be a power for good. OUR THIRD ANNIVERSARY It is sometimes exusable, even justifiable, for an individual to forget his birthday, but hardly either in the case of a newspaper of the youth of the Wisconsin Weekly Blade. And yet that is exactly what the Blade has done. In the rush of business we had entirely forgotten our natal day. June 8th we were three years of age—a mere child—and yet with some of the experiences we have had, we feel almost full grown. We said in our initial number, that it would be our mission to build up, not pull down, to help create a healthy public opinion upon questions affecting the colored people; to open our columns to both sides of every public controversy, excluding only personalities. These things we have endeavored to do and we believe we have been signally successful in them. Now, as we enter into the fourth year of our existence, we review our pledge to hew to the line, cutting deeply into the ranks of ignorance and error, wrong and injustice. Let the chips fly as they may. With this brief recognition of our "New Year" we extend to our advertisers, subscribers, readers and friends a hearty appreciation of their past support, and a hopeful solicitation of their continued favorable consideration. May we merit it all. Keep Your Voice Clear Use Lewis' Veget- table Throat Gargle 25 Cents Lewis Drug Store Cor.

DANIEL W. CHASE The school fight is still on, the determination now being to eliminate the entire Board of Education as now constituted. The Parents' League decided upon this action at a closed meeting held recently. The Metropolitan Baptist Church, of which the Rev. M. W. D. Norman is pastor, has recently undergone extensive repairs, new windows having been put in, which are "poems of religious art," magnificent news, and a pretty carpet also add to the attractiveness of the office. There has been a marked increase of activity and development at this church since Dr. Norman assumed pastoral charge, and larger things are expected of him. The installation of officers of Nimrod Supreme Grand Encampment and Queen Deborah Council No. 1, A. O. Knights and Daughters of cruslem, was held at the Metropolitan Baptist Church, at which time an interesting program was rendered. "Belshazzar's Feast," a dramatic cantata en costume, was well rendered by the Minor Normal Community Chorus, under the direction of Mr. W. Scott Mayo. Freedmen's Hospital reports that 3,892 patients were cared for at that institution last year, and that 1,913 operations were performed. Representative L. C. Dyer has reintroduced the bill authorizing the preaction in the city of Washington of a suitable monument in commemoration to the historic sacrifice made by Negroes in all the wars in which the United States has been engaged. The bill has been referred to the committee for action, and is expected to be taken up soon. The local committee, of which Mr. Ferdinand D. Lee is chairman, is very active and will receive all subscriptions, giving a receipt therefore. It is said that Negro women will be even more insistent upon suffrage than the men, although no modification of the devices by which the Negro vote is now submerged is anticipated, but the South fears loss in congress seats. It is hoped that our women will contend more than have for the right of suffrage in its larger, fuller sense. The first of Dr. J. Stanley Durkee's visions to be realized is the breaking of ground within the next few days for a new building on the Howard University Campus of Theology. One hundred sixteen diplomas were awarded graduate schools of Theology. One number who had distinguished themselves in schools of the trustees of the university announce the election of members of the faculty and official staff: Emmett J. Scott, secretary-treasurer; Carter G. Woodson, dean of the school of Liberal arts; Dwight O. W. Holmes, registrar and professor in education; Miss Helen Tuck, instructor in physical education for women and acting dean of women; Edward L. Parks, dean of men and professor of economics; George W. Cook, dean of the school of commerce and finance and professor of commercial and international law: Kelly Miller, dean of junior college and professor of sociology. In the New York World of May 17th, Louis Schold, in writing of the making of banana rum in Georgia, says: "Most of the persons engaged in selling this and other forms of hard liquors are colored. And, in fact, most of the purchasers are of the same race." Among those who died during the week may be mentioned Mrs. Elizabeth Cant, widow of the Rev. Benjamin Cant, for a number of years a prominent resident of Southeast Washington; Daniel L. Brooks, representing one of the oldest families; and William H. Bruce, eighty years old, one of the familiar doorkeepers of the United States Court. He edged his life by shooting himself through the heart. He had been the Government service for fifty years. Despondency, as the result of the death of his wife, is said to be the cause of suicide. His mother, who was born last Christmas day, survives Mr. Bruce. War Camp Service Club No. 3 continues its activities by giving automobile parties for the wounded soldiers, twenty-five of them being carried on a delightful trip hbr the prominent city driveways, Rock Creek Park and the Speedway. Community singing was introduced in the public schools by Prof. W. E. Lew and Mr. Alonzo P. Smalls, of the music committee. The children were taught the following camp songs: "Smile, Smile, Smile." "There's a Long Trail" and "Beautiful Katy." "Dear Old Pal of Mine" was sung by one of the pupils and Prof. Lew sang 'A Perfect Day.' Mr. Smalls scored a decided triumph, singing Will Marion Cook's "Mammy" and "Somewhere a Voice is Calling." A meeting of the League for Democracy was held at War Camp Community Club, at which meeting Lieutenant Osceola E. McKaine, of New York City, spoke. The Amphion Glee Club presented Miss Grace Campbell, lyric soprano, Chicago, in a recital at the Florida Baptist Church. Moses McCaulley, known to the police as a "tough boy," was sentenced to serve thirty years in the penitentiary by Chief Justice McCoy for the murder of another colored man by the name of Robert Washington. The masonic fraternity gave a victory dance in the Center Narbot Army, at which 2,000 persons came. The affair was a grand success. WANTED—A movement that will weld together all the associations, leagues, forums, etc., into one solid body that will mean to the Negro what the American Federation of Labor means to the white men. Such a movement cannot but be effective of untold good. It will present if proscription is heaped upon a Negro in New Orleans it is heard and felt in Bangor, Maine, and that its echo taking up the cry will be heard from the Atlantic to the Pacific.

We have looked for- ward with joyful anticipation to day when we could welcome one the brave boys who have ken part in this great war for covenant. We can never repay em for the sacrifice they have made for us, but we can endeavor show our appreciation, and I could ask that all citizens join in effort to make this the greatest ent of the war. I would ask that business houses and industrial plants be closed at son to permit all to take part in the parade which starts at 2. The following streets will be closed to all traffic after 1: Wisconsin avenue from Gilman Mifflin, including Dayton, Johnn, Gorham and Gilman from Carroll to Pinkney to permit the arching units to form for the raid and fall in line as the column proceeds down Wisconsin avenue. The streets around the capitol square will be closed and automobiles will not be permitted to ark there. Street car service will be suspended around the capitol square during the parade. Monona avenue will be closed to city street. Carroll street will be closed to ilman. Gilman street will be closed to university avenue. Parking of automobiles will not be permitted on the line of march far as University avenue, at the intersections may be used. Automobiles will be permitted on each side except at Lathrop hall, which is to be used as a reviewing stand. I would ask that the citizens cooperate with the police department to keep the line of march clear of all vehicles.

SECRECY CLAUSE BILL IS PUT OVER INTRODUCTION OF SUBSTITUTE AMENDMENT DELAYS ACTION ON SEVERSON MEASURE The assembly today was on the verge of concurring in the Severson bill to repeal the secrecy clause in the income tax law, when W. H. Edwards, determined to obtain delay, offered a substitute amendment, putting the measure on the bill. Edwards declared that to act on the bill, laid on the table three weeks ago, would be breaking faith, as the taxation committee had agreed to let the measure wait until the senate acted on the Kaney bill, regarded as a stronger measure. The assembly, after recalling the bill from the vote, elected 29 to 25 against re-reference of the tax law. I then voted 36 to 30 against non-concurrence and 33 to 31 against putting it back on the table. Knappe insisted on the assembly passing the Severson bill "in order to prevent it to the governor as soon as possible and see whether he dares go veto it." RESTAURANT MAN ACCUSED BY GIRL MODISHLY GARBED YOUNG WOMAN APPEARS IN COMPLAINT AGAINST PAPPELEXIS Dressed in a black satin dress, dark blue cep and maiden hat, a striking contrast to the blonde hair, complexion, set off by the dainty old rose collar, Miss Anna Zastrow appeared in superior court today in the case against James Pappelexis, proprietor of James' restaurant, 622 West Washington avenue, who has been arrested on a charge of assault and battery, upon her complaint. The case was contested to the courtway. p. m. Harry Sauthoff represents Pappelexis, and William Spohn, the complainant. ARNOLD TAX BILLS ADVANCED ARNOLD TAX BILLS ADVANCED SCHULTZ MEASURE, BOOSTING CERTAIN INCOME ASSESS. MENTS, KILLED Income and inheritance tax measures come up in the current today. The Arnold bill, increasing the inheritance tax to 3 per cent of the clear value of inherited property in the case of a child, and 9 per cent in the case of more distant inheritances, was advanced 16 to 15, after the adoption of an amendment, and then re-referred to the finance committee. A tie vote was --- broken by the chair voting for the bill. The Schultz bill increasing taxation of incomes enjoyed by "persons who sit in soft chairs with their feet on the table, clipping coupons," was killed, 16 to 13, Senator Schultz voting against the bill. He immediately asked for a vote to reconsider, which will be on tomorrow's calendar. The senate adjourned until 4:36 p. m. EGGS LA MODE; THAT IS, FRENCH EGGS LA MODE; THAT IS, FRENCH BY BIDDY BYE Styles have come from France, soldiers are coming constantly—and now recipes from French kitchens once more are beginning to creep thru the lines. As a starter, two cheering ways to transform familiar, American eggs dishes have led can be. We might crudely call them veal or omelet and fried eggs on toast; but this is what happens in the making: Make an omelet of 3 eggs, not stiffly beaten, seasoned with 1-2 teaspoonful of salt, not more than 1-4 that amount of pepper, and mixed with 3 tablespoonfuls of of water. Let it stand on a baking sheet and let it rest on a fried pan. Take 2 large thin slices of veal, cut the omelet in two slices, and roll each slice of omelet inside a slice of veal. When rolled, it can be tied with a string or held together with a toothpick. Saute the rolls in a buttered frying pan, letting them brown on all sides. When serving, pour over them on the platter a butter gravy, to be added a little Worcestershire sauce. Now for the fried eggs, first toast round slices of bread and put them, buttered, in a warm oven. Fry the eggs in butter which has not been allowed to brown. When fried, put them on the pieces of toast, trimming each egg to a round shape to fit the toast. The completing touch is the making of a sauce, of 2 tablespoonfuls of butter melted and stirred until it is a decided texture. Add the lemon and 2 tablespoonfuls of vinegar, Paprika, salt and pepper dashed over the eggs, and the sauce poured on—and they are ready to serve. BLANKETS GET THEIR BATH BLANKETS GET THEIR BATH Fluffy, soft blankets—those are the only kind you feel proud to spread on the bed when a guest comes. Isn't that true? But it's equally true that when once blankets must be washed, it is not the easiest thing in the world to keep them fluffy. As long as is possible, the good housekeepers protect her blankets so that they will need laundering. With a sheet beneath and a counterpane or quilt above, an' the sheet so placed that there is ample length at the top to be folded over the blanket, the evil day can be postponed. But one day, when winter things are being packed away in the spring, she knows the blankets must finally go into the tub. An abundance of soap flakes dissolved in a boiler full of very hot water, and a ice bucket of tools. Submerging the blankets in the lather, she stirs and pounds them with her stock, remembering to be gentle enough to keep from pulling the fabric out of shape. 'Nary a washboard is near. Whatever rubbing must be done she does between the hards is as soon as the water runs out. Then she lets the water run out, without taking the blankets from the tub, rinses them twice in very hot water, and finally in the third glass water dissolves a little of the soap once more and stirs it. When this water is drained off she rinses the blobs in the sunshine. Here again, she is most careful. If they are not hung with the exact middle of each blanket on the lime, and all the elges even, they will dry in scald-shape on the lime. After they have partly dried, she reverses them, to dry the other side. When the sun goes down, her blankets are almost entirely dry, and she takes them in the house. But next morning, if the sun is bright, she takes them in the evening, when she takes them down, they are fluffy, soft blankets. NINE FRESHMEN REMAIN TO TAKE LAKE DUCKING Duckings will end tomorrow at the university when nine more freshmen are dipped in Mendota. Of the 38 freshmen, convicted for violating university traditions, all but nine have paid the penalty. Among those still unducked are William Collins, James Brader, Eddie Cox, Victor Nemetz, Frank Kozena, Warren Taylor, George Bartlett, Louis A. Eisenberg, and W. G. COMPENSATION BILL HELD LAST WORD COMMITTEE FORMS NEW MEASURE AFTER CONSIDERING ALL SIDES The "last word" in workmen's compensation is the claim for the new bill on that subject, formed and introduced by the senate committee on corporate charges proposed by the bill, it is believed, will increase the cost of workmen's compensation to the employers of the state approximately fifteen per cent. The minimum annual earnings basis for railroad emplies is increased. The maximum and minimum earnings basis for all other employees are increased, also the maximum costs of a death case with full dependency and the maximum cost of a case of permanent total disability. Compensation payments, in case of occupational disease are provided. The proposed bill lists a series of occupational diseases which are most common in the state in industries and provides for compensation in the same manner as for industrial accidents. BILL ENGROSSED NOLAN MEASURE PUT THRU DE SPITE OBJECTIONS OF SO CIALIST SIDE The assembly later ordered negro- sed the Nolan bill creating a board of conciiliation after it had refused, 32 to 30, to indefinitely postpone the bill. Knappe called it a "canvocation to de- ceive the people into believing the legislature had done something for in- dustrial commission." Knappe's bill on the same sub- ject was killed two weeks ago. The assembly voted, 87 to 31, to con- cur in the Wilrox bill authorizing the Industrial Commission to determine a minimum wage. Following are the members who the bill, station who sit on the deck, 16 against for a be on p. m. voted to kill the Nolan conciliation bill: Ballard, Bauer, Best, Bowman, Burhop, Coe, Conner, Ehlman, Grimstad, Grindell, C.

The members voting against the Wilcox minimum wage bill were: J. C. and P. M. Anderson, Best, Buckley, Chilsen, Chipman, Edwards, Grohmader, Ganz, Grindell, R. M Hanson, Hellweg, Hood, H. P.

BERGER PROBE IS LAUNCHED BERGER PROBE IS LAUNCHED SOCIALIST'S RIGHT TO SEAT IN CONGRESS BASIS FOR INQUIRY WASHINGTON, June 11—Investigation of the right of Victor Berger, Milwaukee Socialist, to a seat in congress began today before the house elections committee. Berger in a statement today, declared that unseating him would be the denial of the "right of self-determination" to the voters of his district. SUBSTITUTE MARKET MEASURE KILLED COE AMENDMENT DOWNED IN SENATE; OUTLOOK FOR LEG- ISLATION UNCERTAIN With the killing of the Coe substitute amendment to the interim com- mittee, marketing bill, known as the Skogmo bill in the senate, 13 to 11 yesterday, the situation as respects the enactment of a marketing law dur- ing the present session of the legisl- ature looks discouraging. Following an all day hearing on the marketing measures, Senator Skogmo moved to indefinitely postpone both the enactment and the marketing bill amendment. Senator Wilcox took the floor and defended his substitute, saying it was the bill the farmers favored. The assembly substitute amendment to the Skogmo bill, known as the Coe substitute, then was non-concurred by the following vote: For non-concurrence—Semators Anderson, Bennett, Bird, Buck, Cray, Gurge, Mulberger, Nye, Roethe, Skogmo, Stevens, Wilkinson, Witter—13.
