DAKOTA 4 Would Prohibit | Elevators From Buying Wheat from Members of Wheat Pools LAWS INADEQUATE Strengthening of Cooperative Marketing Laws of State Necessity | A law which would grain elevators in the state from buying wheat or other agricultural product from farmers who are mem- bers of wheat pools is asked of the North Dakota legislature hy the North Dakota Wheat Growers asso- ciation, in a bill introduced Wednes- day afternoon by Rep. Fyeeman,| Ind., Grand Forks and Rep. Quam, leaguer, Rhame, N. D. The bill completely rewrites Chap- | ter 44, S, L, 1921, governing the operation of co-operative marketing wassogiations, along the line asked in ‘a rekolution of the N. D. Wheat} Growers association, passed unani- mously by the board of directors at a meeting in Fargo, January 31. The resolution set forth that the present cooperative marketing laws are ;inadequate and incomplete in cer¥ain particulars and asked the leg- islafure to amend the law: — * “By providing for the filing of membership éontracts in the offices of the registers of deeds, and that| such filing shall be notice to all third parties: of the rights and ob- ligations of associations and of members under such contracts.” - How Proposal Is Met In the proposed law presented Wednesday by Messrs. Freeman and Quam, this proposal is met by a re- quirement that names of members in wheat pools shall be filed with the} register of deeds and that official shall furnish lists of such members! with all slevators. The Wheat Growers resolution fur- ther urges changes: “By clarifying the law as to the manner of calling special meetings of members, the form and contents of notice of such meetings, how such notfte shall be given, the fixing of | annual and regular meetings of mem- bers and the business that may be| transaeted at such’ regular and an- nual meetings. “By forbidding.and prohibiting the | purchase of agricultural products and by-products by third parties who Yate actual or instructive notice or knowledge of such membership con- | tracts, from members of such asso- ciations.” 3 These points are all covered, and in addition the bill specifically gives} a_cooperative marketing association right to an injunction against hieaches of contract: Stringent re- strictions on the sale of pooled pro-| ducts and laid down including the| creation of a law making it a mis- demeanor to urge a pool member ‘to sell his products and providing a penalty of not, more than $1,000 fine | tor less than $100. | “Any dealer or prospective pur-| chaser, corporation or association” | which endezvors to persifade | a | member of another association to} break his contract and sell farm produce which he has contracted to pool, “shall be liable to the associa- tion aggrieved in a civil suit in the penal sum of $500 for each such of- fense, .and*such association, shall be entitled to an injunction: against such dealer or prospective purchaser or such person, firm- ot corporation to prevent further breaches of such marketing agreement and to prevent a multiplicity of actions thereon,” the bill sets forth in another section. | Must File Contracts | Copies of membership contracts between the «association and the farmer must be filed with the regis- tea of deeds of the county in which the association and the contracting farmer operates or resides, and may be filéd in other counties adjacent or elsewhere in the state, and filing} of such contract copy prohibits the | wheat pooler from selling grain in| the counties where filed and pro- hibits as well, the ‘purchase of grain} from any pool member by any ele-| vator or dealer. Another section sets forth that the cooperative marketing associa- tions may not be held in restraint’ of trade, and the general corporation laws ‘shall apply to the associations. The emergency clause is carried. The bill.was referred ‘to the com- mittee on Grains and Grain Grading. Prof, Simpson Leaves For N. Y. _For Conference Grand Forks, N. D., Feb. 5.—Pro- tessor H..E.

GROUP EXPECTS END OF WORLD TO COME SOON Little Band, Defying Church Edict, Prepares For Their Doom Tomorrow New York, F ing, fast- Seventh Day Adventists on Long Island to- day are awaiting the end of the World, which they think is coming tomorrow. They are led by Robert Reidt, who calls himself the “Apostle of Doom.” The group includes men, women and children and the family of four ne- fgroes. Most of them have sold their worldly goods, even part of their Clothing and are spending the last few days subsisting on light food Tomorrow they will go to a hill top near Patchogue, whence they ex- | pect to be taken in a cloud chariot to Woods near San Diego. There, they say; 144,000 “brides of the lamb” will be gathered. All other people will perish, according to their prediction: This agreement from the head- quarters of the Seventh Day Adven- tists in Washington that tomorrow is not the decreed day for the milen- nium has not affected the prepara- tions of the little band. Mrs, Mar- garet W. Rowen, leader of those who have fixed the day for tomorrow, was denounced by the church leaders. It is the contention of the Adventist organization that the date fixed by her is extremely premature. The seventh plague, inclading the great battle of Armageddon, must come before the world’s doom, it is maintained by the main group of Adven Reidt made his prediction in detail. The period of destruction ‘starting tomorrow midnight will last for sev- eral days, he #ays, with first disease, stones end pestilence striking the earth at one time. Reidt is himself no longer al membgr of the Adventist church. He has sold his furniture to a second hand dealer on condition that he may buy it back. ONLY ONE MONOCLE « London, Feb, 5.—The National Por- trait, Gallery, which is compiling photographs’ of .the distinguished men’ and ‘women of Great Britain, has found that more women than men refuse tb pose for their photo- graphs. Many of the leading British women also have refused to approve the photographs. Only one man in the collection wore a monocle while being photographed. He was Austen | IS BROUGHT UP, Appropriation of $350,600! | May be Asked at Hands | of Legislature AVOID \ WOULD LOANS| With $500,000 Bond Issuing | Power, Thought Mill | | Could be Financed i The North Dakota legislature will probably be asked to appropriate $300,000 to be used as an operatin {fund by the state owned mill and} elevator. This developed as the result of a conference. between Governor Ai “Gv Sorlie, the’ two Independent mémbers of the ‘state industrial commission Attorney . General George Shafer,| and’ Commissioner J. A. Kitchen. At this conference the Governor| indicated that he, was willing to take the full authority and responsibility } connected with the operation of the) mill and elevator, but raised the question of finance, asking what the other two: commissioners would be willing to have the Bank of North Dakota do along the line of further loans to the milling enterprise in case he should take full charge of it} according to the terms which the In-| dependent legislators have laid down.| | The Independent commissioners re- plied in effect that they could make} no promises in the matter of future| loans, They made it plain that this | did not mean that they would refuse ‘to authorize such loans, but simply that they could not bind themselves, jor the Bank of .Nerth Dakota by blanket promises for the future. It was then suggested to the Gov- ernor by the two Independents that | it might be possible for him to meet this question by a legislative ap- propriation. After some discussion it was agreed by all present that | $300,000 should be the amount asked by the governor for the operating account along with an additional $50,000 to clean up an outstanding deficit on the construction account of the mill and elevator which has thus far been borne by: a loan from the Bank of North Dakota. The Governor has placed the mat- ter in the hands of Senator D. H. Hamilton, one of the League leaders in the senate, and it is probable that Senator Hamilton will either place the matter before the senate appro- priation committee, or himself intro- duce an appropriation bill for the amount asked. Constitutional Limit The two Independent members of the industrial commission pointed out to the governor, however, that he might encounter difficulties in connection with the proposed appro- priation on account of the constitu- tional limitations on taxation. It was pointed out to him that the ap» propriations recommended by the budget board would bring. the state tax levy for the next two years peri-( lously close to this limit. The gov- ernor declared himself to be confi- dent however that the necessary ap- propriation could be ‘raised with tax- ation without exceeding the limit. *At the, same time he said he doubt- ed if it would be actually necessary to use the additional funds which will be placed at his disposal if the ed. He was confident, he said, that ed. He was ‘cofident, he said, that under his plans for the establish- ment of a terminal market and the handling of warehouse receipts, the mill and elevator could finance its self especially when it was consid- ered that the industrial commission had the authority to issue $500,000 of mill operating bonds in: addition to those which. have ‘already been is- sued, The issuance of these bonds is of course contingent largely on the in- ventories of the mill. and elevator on which the bpndg are. based, |price of $20,000 which is was revived in the Senate yesterday. Senator Miklethun of Griggs county introduced a bill under which chil- dren of the first eight grades in the public schools may be excused frem school not more than one hour per week for religious instruction. A bill along similar lines was kill- ed in the house earlier in the ses- sion, The time permitted for reli- gious instruction in the house bill was however greater than that pro- vided for in Senator Miklethun’s measure. Two other bills of considerable importance’ were introduced in the Senate yesterday afternoont One, put in by Senator Kretschmar of McIntosh would place a 25 percent tax on the gross earnings of motor busses, functioning as common car- ricrs in North Dakota. A bill intro- duced by Senator Whitmer of Oliver county calls for a tax of 10 cents per {ton on all coal mined, stored or held for sale in North Dakota. The pro- ceeds of the tax would go to the com- |eron school fund, and the author of the bill claims that about $200,- 000 would be netted annually should the measure be passed. Bills Passed Five bills were passed by the Sen- ate during the afternoon session. One of these, a measure appropri- ating $40,000 for the purchase of land for a well and the installation of a waterworks system at the state asy- lum at Jamestown, brought about a warm exchange between Senator Hamilton of McHenry county and several other senators. Senator Hamilton objected to the eing ask- ed for 140 acres of land on which the well is to be located. He claim- ed it was a rank hold up and want- ed to know if the mouth of the pro- posed well was to be 140 acres in extent. He moved for a delay of two days, to see what progress would be made on a bill drawn to fit this particular case which extends the right of eminent domain to state in- stitutions. Senator Patterson jumped into the fight joyously, and pointed out that the situation was an emergency, and that prompt action was necessary to supply the asylum with water which was urgently needed. “What does the senator want to do, talk about it for a few weeks, the price of the land won’t get any cheaper,” de- clared the senator from Renville. “The ways things are going in this state, I think it is a good idea to buy more land for the insane asy- lum,” interjected Senator J. E, East- gvte of Grand Forks, and after the laugh which followed, Senator Ham- ilton’s motion to postpone action was voted down, and the bill was passed. There was little opposition to the passage of S. B. 93 which: appropri- ates $50,000 to carry out ‘the provi- sions of the North Dakota grain grading act, in the event that the law is held constitutional by the United States supreme court. It went through by a vote of 47 to 2. The senate also concurred in minor amendments ‘made by the house of representatives to S. B. 36 which appropriated $60,000 for the North Dakota national guard, and passed with the emergency clause B. 42, appropriating $16,200 to repay loans mada by Dickinson busi- nessmen to the stafe normal school there. FORMER N. D. | BANKER FREED _ Minot, N. D., Feb. 5.—Lee A. Crowell, former president of the First State bank of Rusco, N.

With university officials cooperat- i investigators expected to bend y effort to find the source of poison. With every supply of the the poison on the campus accounted for, the task, the \ linvestigators faced, was a three-fold one: to dis- cover who gave out the capsules con- taining the poison instead of one containing quinine, which closely re- sembled the poison; To find out the motive, underlying the act; To uncover the source of supply of the poison. Belief that the poison was inten- tionally placed in the capsules was strengthened yesterday by the find- ing of the deadly drug in the stom- ach of David I. Puskey, Canton, Ohio, senior, who died suddenly Sunday after a brief but violent: illness. The only other traces of poison discovered were in a capsule in the possession of Timothy McCarthy of Fremont, Ohio, and evidence of the poison in the contents of the stom- ach of George Thompson, Canton, Ohio. McCarthy and Thompson are two students taken most violently ill and who have survived. if any, Convinced that deliberate intent was at the bottom of the illness which in Puskey’s case, at least, probably caused death. University officials late yesterday afternoon turned over the official investigation to Columbus police. Medicine used in distribution to the student health service is made up in the pharmacy dispensary. Stu- dents taking turns in the dispensary. During the six days from January 25 to February 1, when the present capsules apparently were issued, 64 students worked in the pharmacy. The authorities have done search- ing for a “Youthful Intellectual” of the Leopold-Loeb type who might have killed for the joy of killing; who administered poison to deter- mine the effect. LBGISLATURE WOULD BECUT UNDER PAN 67 Members in House and 32 in Senate Is to be Proposed The state ®nate would be com- posed of 32 members, instead of 49 ag at present, and the house of re- presentatives would have 67 members instead of 113, as at present, under a reapportionment plan being advanc- ed by Herman Hardt of Napoleon. The plan probably will be placed be- fore the legislature in the form of a bill. Under the scheme, vhe basis of re- presentation would be one Senator for each 20,000 population and one representative for each 10,000 popu- lation. Burleigh county, which has a population of 15,578, would have one senator and two representatives, instead of three as at present. Cass county woufd have two di tricts, the only county in the state so affectéd, Fargo would he one dis- trict, since it has more than 20,000 population. The city would have two representatives, Cass county, out- side Fargo, would have one senator and two representatives. Grand Forks €ounty would have one Sena- tor, instead of three as at present, and three representatives. CHANGES IN. | DISTRICTS OF STATE URGED A legislative reapportionment bill, which appears at every session of the legislature, is being discussed ‘by some Nonpartisans. _ Under the proposal the western part of the state would be given a larger representation. Cass county would be reduced from three to two members in the Senate and Grand Forks county would; be cut from three to one, The proposal has not reached the League cauci Four sets of twins sailed in the Canadian Pacific liner Montclare when. she left Liverpool recently.

The world court proposal virtually was laid on the shelf by the Senate foreign re- lations committee so far as this Congress was concerned today. A two-hour dis Ypsion got the committee nowhere ’ and afterward Senator Watson of Virginia, the ranking Democrat on the committee, said he saw no reason for pressing his membership prop as there was no possibility of action by March 4.

SENDS DIRECTOR Frankfort, Ky., Feb. 5.—Governor Fields early today directed Briga- dier-General H. S, Denhardt, lieu- tenant governor, to Sand Cave to} take supreme command of the situ- ation there. Reports that confusion s hampering the work of rescuing d Collins, imprisoned in the led the Governor to take this ' Cave City, Ky., Feb. 5.—(By the A. P)—Floyd Collins ‘has been complete- ly entombed in his Sand Cave pri- son 150 feet underground by a rise in the floor of the cave, and all hopes of escape through any natural age have been abandoned. Two trips into the cave have con-| | vinced coal miners, geologists and military authorities in charge of the ; Work that their only hope of reach- {ing Collins is by sinking a shaft and tunnelling to him. Any attempt to mine into the cave probably will be fatal to Collins, it was agreed, but the plan was adopted | as a last resort and Major W. H.| Cherry, the Governor's present agent, had been dispatched in an automobile with instructions to get mine ma- chinery, wherever any can be found. The rising of the floor within the cavern began shortly after midnight, A rescue crew which entered at 1:08 a. m. found the floor apparent- ly had swelled from below at the in- nermost “squeeze” only a few feet from Collins. Coal miners who en- |tered the passage way several times in hove of aiding Collins reported that the floor was gradually rising and after their fourth visit revealed , that the passageway had been com- pletely sealed. There has been no more rock falls or cave-ins, it was stated. The swelling apparently had lifted solid rock from the floor to the roof of the cavern, This action closed the passage way for an indefinite dis- tance and“may have crushed Collins if it extended that far. Inasmuch as a considerable portion | of the cave leading from the en- trance toward the prisoner still rey mains undisturbed, however, belief was expressed that Collins might still be alive. The movement took place just be-| yond that part of the cavern which had been timbered by rescuers. SURGEON LEAVES Louisville, Ky., Feb. 5—(By the P.)—Dr. William Haselett, Chi-| cago surgeon, who went by rail and airplane to Cave City to render aid, to Floyd Collins, entombed in Sand{ Jave, told a Louisville Times staff correspondent today, he would not| have made the trip had he known the| situation and need, says a special dispatch received this morning. = RESCUERS DISCOURAGED i It was a discouraged group which undertook the mine labor this morn- ing. No effort was spared to speed the work but the race with death had all the odds against the rescuers. Because of the rocky strata expected to be encountered all the way down it was probable that days would elapse before anyone could hope to reach Collins, Orders have been given by Gov- ernor Fields to stop all trains which carry equipment at Cave City. Ma- terial going to rescuers shall have; right of way over anything‘else adj must be taken in a Pullman coach! if no other car is available, the Gov-. ernor said. F An order was placed at Nashville, Tenn., for steam hoisting apparatus. COLLINS, HELD IN KENTUCKY CAVE, HAD SIMILAR PLIGHT ONCE BEFORE Sand Cave City, Ky., Feb. §.—-(By the A. P.)—Floyd Collins, 35 years old, and a cave explorer since boy- hood, found a wonderful cayern, but may have lost his life in th@pattempt. Forewarned by others of the danger to those who attempted to explore her uncharted chasms, Collins de- scended into a narrow passageway of Sand Cave last Friday in search of a “cavern more beautiful than Mammoth cave.” * How far he went no one knows, but “at the end of his rainbow” he found what he sought, he said. Jubilant, perhaps, and anxious to conte out to tell of his discovery Collins was emerging from the cave when within 125 feet of the mouth a tremendous boulder slipped and pinioned his foot. There he lay 24 hours before he was found by Jewell Esters, 17. There, also, he remained alive, for at least 135 hours and probably longer. He still was in the cave today, whether alive or not, unknown to man. Like his father before him, Floyd was a hunter of caves. Once before he experienced the thrill of finding an underground coliseum. Years ago he found Crystal Cave and then, as now, he was trapped by a gigantic rock which fell across his path and held him captive 48 hours. Competition in the Mammoth Cave region was keen. Floyd hoped to find a natural wonder close to Cave City, the nearest railroad point, more’ | Bills of Reps, PRICE FIVE CENTS SCHOOL, HIGHWAY LAWS DISCUSSED ‘REDUCTION OF TRANSPORTING COST IS URGED Education Committee Would Materially Reduce Present Cost of Transportation HIGHWAY BILLS Creation of Big State Fund For Exclusive State Road Building Loses Progress was made in committees teday in legislative disposing of j measures providing for revision of the state highway laws and the school transportation laws, two of the big “money bills” of the present ; Session ,of the legislature. The House Committee on Educa- tion voted to report for passage Morton and Veitch bills placing the limit beyond which school transportation must-be fur- nished or parents paid for transport- ing pupils to school, at four miles for common schools and two and one- half miles for consolidated schools. The bills were recommended for passage unchanged. House bill No. 136 provides transportation shall be furnished pupils of consolidated schools who reside not closer than 2 1-2 miles to school instead of the present 1 1-2 mile limit. Limits for any one family of $1.00 per day for transportation of children and not less than 20 cents for one child. House Bill No, 137 increases the minimum that common school pupil may be transported to four miles in- stead of the present two and one- half miles; clarifies existing statute so that transportation shall be at the rate of 25 cents per pupil or not to exceed 60 cents per family re- gardless of the number of pupils car- ried. School transportation cost in the state has amounted to about $1,500,- 000 at times, and the proposed mea- sures would greatly reduce the ex- Highway Legislation The highways committee of the House, having before it the question of disposing of the motor vehicle license funds, did not reach a defi- nite conclusion. Committee senti- ment, however, indicated that a divi sion of funds between the state high- way commission and counties some- where between the present 50-50 plan j pense. \and the proposed 76 percent to coun- ties and 25 percent to would be adopted. he committee was told that if a ion were made on a 60-40 basis, deductions made for administrative expense, bridge fund and mainten- ance of federal aid roads, and all the gas tax given to the highway com- mission, it would have about $500,- 000 or more annually to meet a like amount of federal aid, in building main roads. The highway commis- sion, it was said, must spend $300,- 000 annually maintaining 2,500 miles of federal aid roads already built, which the federal government re- quires the state to maintain. Some members of the committee are against federal aid entirely, but the majority sentiment appears to be for some main road building. Many members also are insistent that a considerable portion of the money available go back to counties so that they may build their own local roads. p cece aa WOULD COVER T.
