Blgom, accused of having profited through purchase of lands in Kidder county as a member of the fish and game commission, in a statement is- sued here asserted he thought the board got a good bargain in the land. He called it a political lawsuit, He said in part: “Mr. Johnson, if he is acting in good faith, should go back and sue for the purchase price of the game farms at Bottineau and Mandan and tracts of land at Fish lake and Spiritwood lake, purchased for fish hatchery purposes. His inaction in these cases may be explained by the fact that a majority of the game and fish board at that time are now perfectly good I. V. A.’s and naturally entitled to full im- munity by our sainted attorney gen- eral. “As I recall it, I think the board paid $25 or $30 per acre for the Bot- tineau game farm; over $100 per acre | for the tract at Spiritwood lake; $100 or more per acre for a tract at Fish lake and $14 per acre for the 640-acre game farm at Mandan, and by fay the cheapest land (and certainly the best for the purpose) we had been able to buy was the tract at Dawson THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE at $10 per acre. At the time I thought and so did all the members of the board, the state was getting a mighty good bargain, and still think so. Innocent Men Victims “It isi unfortunate for those who must bear the temporary stigma that it is necessary for Mr. Johnson, in order to revive a fast waning cause, to place his criminal branding iron upon those who do not worship at the Nestos shrine, Excluding my own case from consideration, I assert that innocent men are being made to pay a very high price in order that this egotistical and unscrupulous zany may juggle with the good names of men, in his reckless lust to destroy all who fail to heed his puerile and child- ish apings at‘ tyranny. “Were the case inst me started in good faith, there was nothing to be lost by postponing it eight days, or HAIL LOSSES ABOVE 1921 While losses by hail thus far re- ported to the State hail insurance de- partment are far in excess of the loss reported at this time last year o! is of the hail insurance say this is no definite indication that there will be an unusual amount of hail during the summer.

When telephones get out of order in the country long trips Expensive! are often necessary to make repairs. And sometimes threshing machines and hay-stackers tear down wires, and road grading machines make it necessary to reset poles. Trees along the lines also have to be trimmed away from the wires. Then, too, long country lines are damaged more by roadside fires, lightning, winds and sleet storms than are short town lines. These are some of the things that cause the furnishing of telephone service in the country to be very expensive. NORTH DAKOTA INDEPENDENT TELEPHONE CO.

Opposite Post Office, 1O PROMOTE the safety first movement, the Standard Oil Company. (Indiana) has created within its own organization 24 separate and distinct inquisitorial bodies to in- vestigate accidents involving Company motor equipment. These bodies are called “‘SafetyCourts.”’ The primary purpose of these courts is to reduce the hazard of automobile accidents on the public highway. This is directly in line with the policy of the Company to help the employee to a better understanding of his obligation to his fellow citizens. The Court meets weekly and before it must appear any employee, whether manager or truck driver, who has been involved in an accident during the eceding week. The employee comes into court as a defendant with his im- mediate superior as his attorney. The Chairman of the Safety Council is the judge. Other members of the Council serve as jurors. When the investigation shows that the employee has been guilty of careless- ness in observing traffic laws, penalties are fixed and punishment assessed by the jury. The punishment is often as novel as the plan itself. For instance, a truck-driver recently convicted of carelessness was removed from his position and sentenced to work for two weeks in the Company warehouse as a common laborer. The plan isin operation througnout the 11 Middle Western States served by the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) and has been responsible for reducing automo- bileaccidents approximately 50 percent. The spirit which pervades the “Safety Court” is to inspire employees with a sense of their responsibility to the com- munity. As in the case of the Annuity System, which gives the employee a feeling of security regarding his future, and in the case of the Stock Investment Plan to promote the desire to save, the “Safety Court” has as its object the making of better and more responsible citizens who will render continuous and greater service to society. The Standard Oil Company (Indiana) is continually studying methods for improved service through adjusting its organization to the constantly changing needs of the people of the Middle West. _ Standard Oil Company 910 S.
