FAMOUS LODGE TEAM DRILLS HERE FRIDAY
PENNSYLVANIA TOWN STARTS LAW AGAINST ITINERANT SALESMEN The firstcity ordinance to discourage itinerant salesmen from renting a vacant store room to conduct a sale for a few days and then to depart for a new territory was adopted by Lancaster, Pa., in 1906. It required itinerant salesmen to pay a license fee for a month or any part of it. The
maximum penalty for failure to procure a license is a 30-day jail sentence and a fine of $100 and court costs. A Boston ordinance demands a license fee and a bond of $500. The latter serves as a guarantee that the traveling merchant will not swindle the local public. . The. St,. Joseph, Mo., law requires the payment of $100 to cover a license for the first ten days and $10 a day thereafter. Detroit Law , In Detroit agents selling directly to consumers are debarred from showing goods in hotels or show rooms. In Ft. Wayne. Terre Haute, Rochester, Dayton, Columbus, Grand Rapids, Des Moines, Harrisburg and Milwaukee the lot of the itinerant is a hard one because of difficulty in securing accommodations and because of other obstacles placed in his way. It is understood that most of these laws were enacted to protect local merchants from the swarms of promoters who toured the country shortly after-the war offering all kinds of surplus stocks of goods at prices often below those of the local retail stores,
I due to the absence of overhead in the
expenses of the itinerant.

(Continued from .Fage One) letters to all members of congress expressing . opposition to the . proposal to provide a duty on lumber, in the per-
26 'manent tariff bill which is tor be in
troduced this summer. . ' Representative Knutson calls attention to the fact that an average duty, of $2.00 per thousand feet on lumber would, produce less than $2,000,000 in revenue, - while It. would place an unnecessary burden of approximately $80,000,000 on the American users of lumber. "Is it worth while?" he asks. The American people consume between thirty-six and forty billion feet of lumber per year, Knutson states, while the U. S. forestry bureau reports that the annual growth of lumber in the United States is less than six billion feet annually. Knutson states that the congress each year appropriates about $7,000,000 for reforestation and for protection of timber lands, and. he says, every piece of lumber imported into this country means the saving of an American tree. Claims Gouging. The Republican "whip" asserts that during the war American lumber manufacturers, """taking advantage of our dire needs," gouged the American government and people of millions of dollars. He says that in some instances their profits exceeded 100 per cent. He declares that in view of that fact

to special tariff consideration. In part Representative Knutson's ;etter reads : "It is estimated that there is a shortage of 1,225,000 homes in the United States at the present time. This condition has resulted in overcrowding, im
morality and unrest. Tenants all over
the country are living in constant fear
! of being dispossessed. Unscrunulous
landlords, taking advantage of tenants needs, have time and again advanced rents until they are now so burdensome that nearly all tenants are highly exercised and will resent any move on the part of congress that will tend to increase the cost of home building. Farms Underbuilt. "The farms of the country are underbuilt, chiefly because of the high cost of lumber, and state farm bureaus of
many states, as well as the American ! Farm Bureau Federation have me-1 morialized congress to refrain from I placing a tariff on lumber. In fact all 1
consumers of lumber are of one mind that lumber should be on the free list." Knutson states that there Is todav
only about three billion feet of lumber at the saw mills available for building ' purposes. He says that in view of the !
present housing shortage it is imperative that building operations assume normal proportions; that if a duty is placed on lumber it must, of necessity, be added to the selling price.
