W. Roberts, heard here last week before the Feb- ruary term of the Burleigh County District Court, Judge Fred Janson- ius presiding. The cases were defended by the At- torney General of the United State through the United S Distr Attorney at Fargo, P. B. sisted by State's Attorney a Curdy. Peter Engeseth handled the case for the prosecution. Oshanyk’s suit to reco 90.10 plus interest from 1918 and costs, and Flanagan's for $179.33, with interest and costs, from the weather bureau head, on the ground that he had no authority to convert the wheat and turn proceeds over to the Red Cross, are two of the four amounting to ap- proximately $2,000 on the — present calendar. The other plaintiffs whose cases have not yet been heard are August L. Asplund and Fred Prokopp, of Wilton, These four civil suits date bagk to the war period of 1918, when O. W. Roberts, as Federal Food Adminis- trator for Burleigh, McLean, Kidder d_ Emmons Co s, found the four farmers guilty of violation’ of Herbert Hoover's Federal Food Act ordering all wheat sold on or before June 1 and canceling previous or- ders allowing sufficient wheat for seeding to be retained by farmers, During the latter part of July, 1918, acting on reports of the hoard- ing of wheat by farmers, as well as the hoarding of white flour and su- gar in unusual quantities, Mr, Ro- berts investigated and found quan- tities of wheat hoarded on the pro- and some in bins covered y other grain. ners were notified that they had violated a federal food act in not having marketed their grain by Juné 1 and were directed to mar- ket their grain immediately. The various " elevators throughout the four counties named were informed at whenever grain was’ delivered fter August 1, to hold this grain as evidence ofyguilt of the hoarder, and notify the food administrator. It was further provided that if they proferred to donate this grain to the Red Cross they were to be al- lowed to do so, the check to be for- warded to the Federal Food Admin- iytrator, in order that he might keep a check on who had turned in his grain and who had not, and these checks, Mr. Roberts testified, were deposited to the credit of the Food Administration and donated to the Red Cross receipts in all instances counterbalancing checks donated to the Red Cross. No action was taken against any of the farmers the time. Recent- ly, after the expiration of the three year period, during which they could be tried for food law violation, and of nearly three additional years al- lowed by law for recovery in civil action, farmers Oshanyk, Asplund, Prokopp and agan instituted ¢i- vil proceedings to recover an amount approximating $2,000 from 0, W. Ro- berts. inyk and Mr, janagan, 's were the first to come ch ‘ie d Mr. Roberts with illegal seizure of wheat, Two juries brought in a verdict for Weather Chief Ro- berts.

CENTER FIXED OVER LAKES (Continued from page one) was dashed to the floor and parti- cularly in older sections, the wood- work of houses wrenched and seams opened. Reports from other parts of the country indicate that the entire east was affected and it seems evident that the center of the disturbance was in northern Michigan. The quake was comparable to those that have repeatedly been felt in Japan and on the western coast without loss of life or other disaster, The disturbance was cdused by a “fault”, that is a break in the earth's crust, with an accompanying shift- ing of the strata, Many Ineidents Numerous incidents of the earth- quake came’to light here today.

Ben- der, doughty guard of the locals, put the game on ice in the last quarter of minute of play with a long field goal. Coach Morrison started out Reg- ister at center, Watkins and Shepard at forwards and Olson and Bender at guards, Later Scroggins went in at guard and Olson at forward, and Haas relieved Register at center. At the end of the first half the game was 13 to 5 in Dickinson's favor, with Dickinson looking to be an easy winner: However, the “De- mons” came back strong in the ond half. Olson made 13 of Bi marck’s point, while the Smith bro- thers scored most of the points for the. visitors and Jenson played a finé game on- defense. NEW SALEM DEFEATS WILTON “BY CLOSE SCORE New Salem, N. March 2.—Fri- day night. New Salem» won a hard fought battle from the Wilton Cag- ers by a one point Margin, 11 to 10. At no-time during the entire con- test did more than 2 points separ- ate the teams. Wilton made the first counter. Jones of New Salem con nected a moméit later, The quartet’ ended 2 to 3 for Wiltone The next quarter the score wag reversed and the half ended 5 to 5. Both teams played airtight defens and it was with difficulty that either| team got shots. At the beginning of the second half, Jones, New Salem| star forward, sprained his wrist and] it was hard for him to . During the first half he made all of his team mates points but during the last half he was held scoreless. ‘The end of the third quarter found New Salem holding a one point lead 8 to 9, With 30 seconds left to go Wilton dropped in a long shot which gave them x 10 to 9 advantage. The ball was brought back to center. Gunder got the tipoff. Buman, New Salem Center, raced down the side- lines, received a perfect pass and connected right under the _ basket. The game back to center. The two running guards starred, Gunder for New salem and Bigler for Wilton, Gunder perhaps playing a little the better of the two.
