Bill 3 Defeated in Lower House Amid Igoe Amendments Loss
In Springfield the county civil service bill faced sharp opposition as Republicans rejected the blanket civil service clause. A roll call showed 49 to 2 defeats on key amendments by Representative Igoe and others. Speaker Shanahan adjourned to two weeks of limited business, delaying much of the legislature’s agenda while a waterway proposal to connect the lakes to the Gulf drew support from Colonel Conway and others.

Farming critique from Hussar adds up to a land boom tale
A writer living in Hussar Alberta writes to his Indiana home paper arguing that blame-placing hurts farming. He cites crop results from Crowfoot Farming Company and other locals, noting 1913 rains, dry yields, and price swings. He highlights large ranches, horse and cattle operations, and profits from fat cattle, suggesting landowners who raise big crops or stock can prosper despite wartime shifts.
