UTAH IE DELEGATES TO NATIONAL MEET AFTER ITS DISCUSSION 8ENATE WILL TAKE UP CONSIDERAAT BOISE, IDAHO, SUPPORT TION OF TAX BILL 8TANFIELD BILL Pro-Pose- Boise, Idaho. Regulation of forest grazing aa proposed In the bill recently introduced Into the senate by Senator Stanfield, Oregon, which represented a digest of the preferences of ' western stockmen as revealed at a sorles of hearings held last year throughout the west, was Indorsed In Its main points by delegates from a majority of states represented at - Wednesday mornings session of the sixty-firs- t annual Naltonal Woolgrow-erassociation convention. The bill was referred to the grazing committee and the association will withhold action pending their report. Satisfaction of the delegates with provisions of that particular part of the bill bearing upon regulation of grazing on forests was demonstrated time and again In applause as George K. Bowden, Chicago, attorney for the senate publlo lands committee outlined its main features. This was a distinct reversal of opinion as expressed by the delegates concerning the public lands phases of the bill Monday afternoon. At that time sentiment was so against that section of the measure that passage of a motion to turn the measure down flatly was narrowly averted. In addition to the presentation by Mr, Bowden and the subsequent discussion, the morning session of the second day of the meeting was addressed by Paul Clagstone, San Francisco, western division manager for the chamber of commerce of the United States. Mr. Clagstone spoke concerning the work of the national chamber of commerce as It pertains to the strengthening of all Industries, among which is Included, he said, the stockmen of the country. The Stanfield measure, Mr. Bowden said has been drawn to Include forests of the eleven public land states. It provides that the government must administrate the forests In a manner to Insure the promotion and cultivation of grazing plants; or a contractual. agreement between grower and the forest supervisor for the government on the leasing question and for appeal to a board of three men having a knowledge of stockmens interests In case difficulties as to the terms of the contracting agreement arises between the growei- and the forest supervisor. a' , - Senate Aluminum Investigation Will Be Resumed This Week; Inquiry On British Rubber Monoply Is Scheduled Washington.

This makes ten of the 101 miners to come out alive after their rendezvous with death. The death toll Is placed at 91. The maw of the mine yielded fourteen dead bodies by noon. The rescue ot two men Thursday added zest to the rescuers and they renewed their work In hope of finding more alive. Four companions in McKinneys tunnel were killed by the blast, but by some miracle McKinney was not even knocked unconscious. Without a light the miner crawled and blindly through the damp-filledeath-strewpasages for twenty-threhours. ' Just before he came out he crawled over the dead body of his father. Ed Boyle, state mine Inspector, Is on the ground to conduct a state probe of the disaster. Some people here believed that the accident was caused by one of the fire bosses who knev of. a gas pocket In the mine. The theory Is that the fire boss said the mine was safe, believing that he could clear the gas pocket before the miners came in, but that one ot the miners came in before the scheduled time and walked into the pocket with his open light , d n e SALT LAKE BIDS FOR SHOW National Livestock Men May Hold The Next Annual Convention In Utah Phoenix, Arlz.
