STYLES NAMED STATEACTUARY Assumes Place in the State Insurance Department Wesley Styles, formerly connected with Fargo and Twin City insurance companies, has been named actuary for the state insurance department, under a law effective July 1, S. A. Olsness, commissioner of insurance, announced today. Employment of an actuary had been recommended to many sessions of the legislature and especially urged by former Commis- sioner W. C, Taylor, but it was. not until the 1923 session that a $3,000 annual appropriation was made for this work, Commissioner Olsness said. Mr. Styles’ first duty will be to ex- amine policy forms of companies do- ing business in the state with a view of determining if they are actuarily sound. He will examine domestic in- surance’ companies. The’ state also will be able to reciprocate with other states in the matter of examination. Mf. Styles, a native of Grand Forks, formerly was with the Northwestern Fire Mutual of Fargo, and the’ Pio- neer Life. company of that city, he said, and recently has been with the insurance and jobbing agencies in the Twin Cities.

Because of the changes which were necessary in view of the purchase of the pre- sent water works system, the exact cost has begn difficult to ascertain. The total cost, based on original plans and including the purchase price of the water plant, is figured at $665,000, but this probably will be reduced $25,000 through changing of the 16-inch main to Avenue C from Broadway and other changes. The cost, based on original plans, is figured as follows: purchase price, $265,000; contract No. 1, pur- chase of cast iron pipe, ete., $126,- 000; contract No. 2, laying mains, $61,000; contract No. 3, filtration plant building, $110,000; contract No. 4, heating plant for filtration plant building, $5,500; contract No. 5, equipment for filtration plant, $24,836.00; contract No. 6, pumping equipment, $48,501.00; Diesel en- gines, other’ equipment $34,985.00.

WHEAT, FLOUR BOTH FALL Flour Sells at $6.00 for First Time in Years does, on the eve of harvest, it is doubly hard on many farmers. Queer actions of the twister are reported by Mr. Daugherty. The wind picked up a church-school of the Seventh Day, Adventists | four miles south of Denhoff, carried it 60. rods and set it down without) damaging it in the least, he said. Mr. Daugherty’s house was wreck- ed, but he was not at home. The wind split the house and scattered it so that he was able to find only a few pieces of it. A coal burner in the hbuse was found almost a half/a mile away from where «the house had been. A fine new hip-barn of George Payscno, farmer and contractor: liv- ing nine miles south of Denhoff, was completely destroyed. The barn cost $4,000. A number of -horses were in the barn. Pieces of’ wood were driven into the flesh of some of the horses, who ran wild about the barnlot. Nine horses were kill- ed. Mr. Payscno’s loss was enti- mated at $8,000, with but $2,000 tornado insurance. He was at Shot by, Montana, for the Fourth of July fight and did not return until after the storm. Mr. Daugherty’s home was two miles from the home of Carl Fand- ‘rick, seven miles south of Denhoff, where Mrs. Fandrick was killed. She driving chickens into a small chicken house, he said, when the wind literally buried her under the timbers of the wrecked chicken house. When a search was institut- ed for her it was not suspected that she had been buried under the chick- en house and she was found only because a small boy saw one hand ng out from under the tim- Chicago, July 12.—Wheat and flour are at the lowest levels since the World War.

Wilkerson of the United States district court. The decree making permanent the injanction, which is considered the most wide-spread restraining order ever obtained in the history of liti- gation, affects approximately 400,- 000 railway employes and officers of the shopcrafts ‘concerned in the strike. The injunction was applied for by United States Attorney-Gen- eral Henry M. Daugherty on Sep- tember 1, 1922, nearly two months after the inception of the strike. Theoretically the strike still is in Chicago, July 12. ;| Takes Oath of Alaskan Soci- effect. The shopmen .left their posts of duty on July 1, 1922 when the U. S. Railroad Labor Board made a cut in their wages, effec- ‘tive that date. The strike continued for more than two months. The men returhed.to work in Sep- tember on the basis of what was known as the Baltimore agreement which was entered into by 31 major railroads of the country, The agreement left the question of sen- iority, which has been the main bone of contention after the strike had extended into a month, to a commission to decide. , Statement of Judge In making the injunction. perman- ent Judge Wilkerson said in part: “It seems almost incredible that the warfare of the kind described in the voluminous record in this case should be in this country. It is even more ominous that this unlaw- ful assault upon the commerce of the nation should have found apolo- gists and defenders (including only few happily, however) of th charged with the duty of protecting property and enforcing the law. “This strike was more than a con- troversy between employer and em- ploye. Its manifest purpose as shown by the evidence was to erlp- ple and destroy interstate commerce and to create by this assault public opinion hostile to the decision of the board. The primary purpose of the combination is, therefore, ille- gal and it may not be carried out by means that otherwise would be le- gal.” G.N. GUARDIS ACQUITTED Held. Not Guilty in Shooting of Striking Railroad Man Grand Forks, July 12—A verdict of not, guilty was returned today by the;jury in the case of Thomas Mrachek, Great Northern guard, charged with assault with a danger- jon in connection with the shooting of Adolph Purpur, striking shopman on September 3 last.

Henderson with President Harding, July 12.—Presi- dent Harding has bound himself by an oath never to mistreat either a dog or a honse. The obligation to be kind to both the animals was part of an oath giv- en by the President yesterday at Skagway when he became a meni- ber of the Arctic Brotherhood. He today confided the oath in part to Mrs, Harding who in turn informed members of the Presidential party. The chief executive from boyhood has loved animals and his enthusiasm over the brotherhood's effort to pro- tect them caused him to tell his wife about it.

The British government, he said, invites the sympathy of the allies and all other interested states for the proposa) which is aimed solely at the pacification of Europe and the recovery of the exhausted world. Mr. Baldwin failed to state what the British proposals will mean in the note the government intends framing, nor did he say anything in regard to an international commis- sion to examine into Germany's ca- pacity to pay.
