Gordon Hats $30 SERIIGABILITY TOUR FOR STOCK CARS PLAN - OF TACOMA AUTO GLUB Would Have Every Factory in America Send. Machine Over Red Trail for Races . Every manufacturer of automobiles in the United States will: be invited to send a stock car over the National Harks highway—the Red Trailthis summer in a big run which will wind ; up in Tacoma in time for the: speed way races July 4, says the Seattle Post-Intelligencer, which recently de- voted an entire page to a pictofial re- view of the. Red Trail from Chicago to the coast, These representative cars are ex- pected to bring a flood of motor tour- ists over the highway in their wake. ! Every automobile club and tourist or-| ganization in the northwest has been ked to concentrate on the National Parks high this summer, . The Pacific northwest will bo brought into prominence this season amongst automobile manufacturers ard owners as never before in its history, as an outcome of the getting Groceries and .

PHONE 34 together of Washington, Oregon and British Cblumbia in the formation of a new tourist association. Anyone who has toured to any extent knows that there is no part of the American continent which can offer more diversified scenery and attrac tions for the tourist. Every machine entered in this serv iceability run must be a stock car; must finish in Tacoma not later than July 3, and report at all designated places along:the line. The run will not bo a speed contest in any way. The ‘checking en route will be done by commercial clubs. Indications are that the war is not to interfere with. any of the great touring events planned for tie com: ing’summer, It is very likely, in fact, that most of the traveling done for pleasure ‘this summer will be via au- tomobile trail, as the nailroads plan to curtail tyeir passenger service, in order that right of way may be given the movement of food products and supplies. SERIOUS RIOTS IN GERMANY Amsterdam, May 4—The Mae- stricat says that serious revolts oc- curred in Berlin last week.

Flour Jumps. 25 Cents. The price of flour got another spasm today and jumped 25 cents. Flour in the Bismarck stores was re- tailing at $7.95 a hundred this alter- noon, compared with a quotation of $7.70 yesterday, despite the fact that wheat took a slump. Wheat and flour seem to work just at opposite angles in the ‘opinion of Bismarck grocery -dealers, At special meetings held at James- town, Fargo, Dickinson and Minot, the sentiment of the members seemed in favor of postponing the convention. Williston, according to the report reaching the exalted rul- er, voted in favor of the convention. DEFER ACTION ON LETTING. CONTRACT FOR AEN LIBRARY After meeting ‘and opening ‘bids for the awarding of the contract for the: crection of Bismarck’s new $25,- 000 library, the public library board took action which deferred the let- ting of the contract until a meeting to be held either tomorrow or some time next week. Two bids, it is understood, were re- ceived on the general contract, The library will be located on the proper- ty east of the city hall, dedicated to the library board by the city commis- gions last Monday night. And This Isn't All. And this isn’t all! Pork chops are retailing at 34 cents a pound and will probably hold that price tomorrow for the Saturday night purchaser. Boiled ham is 50 cents a pound and raw ham 40 cents. Is it any wonder that the hotels and the cafes serve a “pindh” of ham with an order of ham and eggs? Cuts of beef range from 18 to 35 cents. There was no dairy butter to be purchased in the city this morning. If there’s any on the market. tomor- row it came in late this afternoon and was under disguise, for every housewife in the city is playing the role of a detective in an effort to get a clue on some good dairy butter.
