PAGE TWO : ; ‘ ' THE ‘BISMARCK TRIBUNE : HYPNOTIST IN BAD WITH MEN ~A1SO WOMEN Kittay, Operating In Berlin, To Have a “Congress’ Held Over Him WOMEN EASY SUBJECTS Berlin, Feb, 14—German criminol- ogists, psychologists, medical and lega. experts will hold a “congress” over the case of Leopold Miecyslaw Kit- tay, a Galician, whose trial on charges of misuse of hypnotic powers was set to begin here today. They have been summoned for opinions on psychol- ogy, hypnotism, suggestion and men- tal responsibility of persons who com- mit crimes .while hypnotized. Kittay, who practiced hypnotism under the name of Lo Kittay, is al- leged to have influenced his clients to sell or pawn their valuables and give him the money. He will also be held to answer charges of immorality for he is said to have had great in-| fiuence over women, one of whom, the wife of a well-known merchant, tried | to sell her house and furnishings wihout her husband’s knowledge and succeeded in raising a considerable sum which she gave the hypnotist. He used part of the money in mak- ing a brief tour of German cities, where,be gaye public exhibitions of, his power over the merchant’s wife who, with a friend, accompanied him. The complaint against Kittay cites as an example of his influence that he hypnotized a dancing girl while she was.on the stage, compelling her to fall asleep and abandon the per- formance. This girl is said to have detested the hypnotist but could not resist his hypnotic power. A number of husbands whose wives were addicted to drug habits appeal- ed to Kittay for assistance and in some instances he is alleged to have put the women to sleep and while in this condition suggested they sell or pawn their own valuables or the property of their husbands, proceeds of which transactions he pocketed. Kittay’s defense will attempt to show the clients themselves were criminally inclined and committed the offenses without undue influence on the part of the hypnotist.

D., Feb. 14.—The Slope * county commissioners are dickering | with Rainmaker Hatfield for a copious | supply of rainfall in that county for the coming season, but have not yet ached a contract. Hatfield wants to make a deal whereby he shall be paid $5,000 for every inch of rainfall or fraction thereof that may fall in the pre- bed area during the months of May and June in excess of two inches. But the commissioners discovered the average rainfall in those months for the past three dry years was 3.54 inches, and made the rainmaker a counter offer of $5,000 an inch of rain- fall in excess of 3.5 h fall to be the average falling at Mott, Bowman, Amidon, Hettinger and Bis- on. Under this offer the period of operations by Hatfield is to cover from May. 1 to June and the rainfall is to operater for a distance of 100 miles from the rainmaking plant in an east- erly and southeasterly direction. This offer has not been accepted by the rainmaker, The Slope County News, however, is a Doubting Thomas and wants, if the deal is made with Hatfield, to werner CREAM BUYING TROUBLES ARE MULTIPLYING Commissioner Has.So Many “He Doesn’t Know What To Do” With State Inspection Cream buying conditions in North Dakota have placed Robert F. Flint, dairy commissioner, in a position analogous to the old woman who lived in a shoe.“He has so many cream buy- ing troubles as State Dairy Commis- sioner that he “doesn’t kno¥ what to do.” To begin with, he has nominal su- “‘pervision over the more than one thousand cream buyers in the state who hold a North Dakota license. North Dakota’s law concerning dis- crimination also has a very drastic section in which punishment of revo- cation of license is proposed for the cream buyer who raises prices unduly in an effort to ruin the business of a competitor. Competition for cream, according to Mr, Flint, is unusual. It has reached a point where it is a battle royal be- tween the large organizations, and the small purchaser does not figure. In many cases the prices have been raised to a point where it is impossible for the purchaser to make money or to secure the amount he pays for the cream. While this condition is good for the individual cream seller today, Mr. Flint has been in the dairy busi- ness so long that he realizes that a day of reckoning will come when the present hour. Community pride and community interest also has a bearing upon the problems of the commissioner. One case that has been called to the at- tention of the commissioner is that of a buyer who was pursuaded by the merchants of the town to pay a high- er price for cream than the buyers at neighboring points. The object was to attract business to the one town and away from the others. The merchants, however, failed to arrange to make good the deficit made in the buyer’s principal in paying the ex- tra prices. Another factor thatis giving the Dairy Commissioner concern is that cream is the only cash product for sale at the present time in many of the towns of North Dakota. A mer- chant who purchases $100 worth of cream per week will handle a similar amount of cash and in return he re- ceives cash payment for a good many of the varticles he sells.

LESS POLITICS IN BUSINESS TODAY'S NEED But The World Does Need More Business In Politics Claims Deans Clevelarid, Ohio, Feb. 14.— More business in politics and less politics in business is what the. world needs today, H. G. P. Deans, vice president of the Merchants’ Loan and Trust company of Chicago, said today in ad- dressing the first annual convention of the Bankers’ Association for For- eign Trade. Reluctance on the part of the United States to attend any in- ternational conference that has for its aim a full discussion of trade difficulties would seem, Mr. Dean said, to involve “a confession of in- capacity on our part, or a failurg properly to grasp conditions.” Better conditions will not come to this country, the bankers were told, “until European demand for our prod- ucts improves.” If as great an im- provement is. made within the next three years as has been made in the past three years, Mr. Deans said, “we have good reason for believing that; better days are on the way.” | { required to provide the credits for! war, the same agency: should provide | the “much smaller, but yet very con- siderable and necessary credits re- quired ‘for the revival of indu$try,” Mr. Deans said. 4 “If co-operative financial action be- tween our government and the gov- ernments of Europe: was needed: dur- ing the war, it is‘even more necessary | today than then,” the speaker: said. “The day is approaching, if it ts not now here, when we will need Europe's trade and need it perhaps'more than Europe will need ours.” WOULD SPEND $94,000,000T0 HELP JOBLESS Swedish Minister of Social Af- fairs Asks For a Special Appropriation Stockholm, Feb. 14.— The Swedish.

Two previous failures in the venture have not dampened inter- est which is running high. The search is for a pot of gold said to contain thousands of dollars that was ‘buried by a Dr. Docker during the Civil War on his farm near Com- merce. The report has been that the doctor, fearing that his home would be ransacked by both the Confederate and Union armies, buried his fortune land confided the secret of the hiding place in only one ‘person, an caged negress, who worked on his farm. Dr. Docker died shortly after bury- leaving the negress alone with the secret. A number of men demanded that the negro woman reveal the hid- ing place after the doctor's death. Their demand was refused and they beat her severely. She died‘as a re- sult of the beating and the last rec- ords of the secret hiding place were carried to the grave with her. Marshall Moore and A. E. Pinker- ton, of this community, said they were told where to dig to find the treasure by a medium living nearby.
