Iowa Spirit Boosts National Adjutant Pledge
James Barton nearly accepted the National Adjutant post after persuasion by Commander Drain at a meeting of commanders and adjutants. Barton refused to take the Iowa job and spoke to support the national role, which pays 7500 dollars yearly. Muscatine released its claim for the state convention, with Council Bluffs aiming to host, followed by the national convention. The Legion essay contest opens with three large prizes for regional winners. The social meeting last Thursday failed due to STAFF shortages. The group shows 59 members this year, urging laggards to join. Spring time brings harness stock at Peters Harness Store, including on sale straps and harness gear.

Members of both houses recognize the need for a gasoline tax measure to fund road improvements. In the Senate, Senator Bergman proposed a 6-cent tax sharing funds among primary county and township roads, later amended to 3 cents with continued federal aid. Senator Bowman offered a 2-cent tax with provisions limiting the State Highway Commission, risking federal funds.
