BUILDING USED BY CONSULATE BOMB TARGET, Broken in Structure Occu- pied By Italian Officer New York, Jan. 17.—()—Two painters, Meyer Smith and Ruben Taer of Brooklyn, a lieved by the police to be responsible for a bomb explosion today which dam- aged the office of the Italian consulate and two other buildings in East 22nd street, Both were arrested shortly after the expto- sion. According to an alleged con- fession, the act was inspired by a hatred of Premier Mussoiini and his attitude toward labor, especially toward painters, the police said.

Experts on the police bomb squa said the bomb: was of “home made” construction, Two men were seen passing the building several times and loitering outside the door. shortly before the explosion occurred.

The vote of the board was! unanimous. Mr. Scattergood will be the ac- in charge of the work~here, the New York firm stated, and it is estimated that the cost of the inves- | tigation will be from $2,500 to $3,000 providing there are no unforeseen circumstances, in which event the ;jeost would be higher. Mr. Scatterwood,' who recently “in- vestigated the Ohio workmen's com- pensation fund, will receive $50 a day. He will have an istant at 25 a day. Both men will receive their railroad fare and expenses. {The work is expected to require three weeks of the assistant’s time and two weeks of Scattergood’s. It is expect- ed that a report will be available jtime for presentation to the legisla- ture, In voting “aye” on the question of employing the firm of Dawson & | Son, Commissioner R. E. Wenzel, who has suggested that the benefit sched- ule be reduced, but who has op- posed the board’s plan of, en; an actuary at this time, Explains Vote “To vote ‘ tion--and I desire it to be distinctly understood that I am speaking only | for and about myself, and not for or about any other commissioner— would be an acknowledgment that 1 could not or would not study the problems of the bureau for myself. I may have a peculiar sense of duty and responsibility, but I have one that requires me to dig things out for myself. It is my belief that the employment of an actuary at this | time will result only in the expendi- ture of money, and unless he mittees to discu: | questions involved ‘dealing with the reduciton of benefit the particular | schedules, and should be advised to that effect before he starts his work, such work would, in all probability, have Ititle or no bearing upon the {necessity or advisability of the re- duction, which is the only question before the leigslature.” In discussing the situation today, Mr. Wenzel said: “In this connection permit me to direct attention to a report of the Federal Bureau of Labor Statistics, namely: No, 406, being the report of the 1925 meeting of the Interna- tional Association of Industrial Acci- dent Boards and Commissions. This ‘Bureau is a member of said Associ- ation, and the report has been on our shelves for nearly a year. “Beginning on page’ 169 thereof, you will find an acturial discussion relating to the cost increase that would result from a change in any compensation law as follows: in- crease of maximum weekly compen- sation from $10 to $12 per week and chi of the waiting period from 2; eet retroactive to 10 days“re- weeki troaetl Difference in Cost “vne figuring is based upon the American Accident table for 100,000 accidents.

Mr. Johnson, the Tribune said, de- | clared he had accepted the “implied challenge” of Commissioner Landis to bdre all the facts in the Cobb- Speaker baseball drama, and would | j take the stand next Monday at the | special’ American League meeting Hed by the baseball head. He said | his testimony at that meeting would prove the American League acted to protect Cobb and Speaker, und that Landis alone was to blame for the cloud of rumors about their names. | “I don’t believe Ty Cobb ever played ‘a dishonest game in his life,” Mr. | Johnson said, “If that's the exon- eration he seeks, I gladly give it to) him, But it is from Landis that Cobb should demand an explanation.

Under Sen- tence of Death in California Extradition papers were issued here today for the, return to Los Angeles, Calif.. of Earl J. Clark, alias Melvin Rhinehart, said to be under sentence to hang for murder. Clark is held at Minot where he was arrested at the request of Cal- ifornia officails who said he was under sentence of death. when he escaped from jail. ‘ Clark. contends that he is not the man wanted, it was said at the ex- ecutive offices H. E. Heller, Los An- geles deputy sheriff, told Governor A. G. Sorlie this morning, however, that he knew Clark personally and could identify the man held at Minot as the escaped prisoner. Heller was accompanied by Robert Johnson, an- other California deputy sheriff. The California men contend they have a copy of Clark’s finger prints with them and will go to Minot for pur- poses of identification, Since no protest was made against the granting of the extradition papers they were issued without question, it was said at the governor's office. It was said, however, that a habeas corpus action may be started at Minot to prevent ' the California men from taking the prisoner to! California. Clark has 24 hours in which to take legal action to halt the extradition, according to E. G. Larson, secretary to the governor. The ‘California officers have not seen Clark but wanted extradition Papets as a precautionary measure in case the man under arrest is the fugitive they are looking for. >: Liver extract is the newest addi- tion to the list of weapons which medical science has ‘marshalled ‘sgainst cancer. f RECOMMENDS — PASSAGE OF Proposed Appropriation For ate Transportation Of- ficer Is Questioned ‘The first bill of the sess‘on law Saturday when signed a measure giving official recogni- tion to the supplement to the compiled code of 1913 published in 1926. | i ' | \ | i \ | | | Meeting this morning, the house appropriations committee recommend- ed passage of three minor bills, but spent most of its time orienting it- self on the major matters to coma before it, among which are appropria- fion$ for state institutions, House bills 28 commended for passage. Bill 23, appropriating $21,500 for the’ state historical society to pay salary, clerk ‘hire and general ex- penses for .the biennium beginning duly 1, 1927, and ending June 20, 1929, was approved without change ; An appropriation of $10,000 for the Florence Crittendon Home at Fargo, contained in house bill 30, was ap- proved, as was house bill 31, appro- ing $2,500 for the biennium to ‘emiums on the honds of state ials. 1 offic: Object to Salary | House bill 22, appropriating $28,100 for salary, travel and miscellaneous ems of the state transnortation oz- ficer for the biennium e up for a lengthy discussion. Objections were made to payment of a $4,000 salary ; nd to payment of $24,000 travel ex- pense. On motion of Representative Brown, Adams county, a committe consist:ng of Mrs. Minnie Craig of Benson, J. , H. Burkhardt of Ward and I. J. Wil- son of Slope was appointed to make | thorough investigation of the ex- | pense statement turned“in by the j transportation officer for the past year to determine if the $24,000 ap- | propriation would be too high. Salaries of the heads of state edu- cational institutions came up for an informal discussion early in the ses- sion. Representative Burkhardt de- clared that he believed the present | salary appropriation for the heads of the state agricultural college and uni- versity was “too much, and provided even higher salaries than the gover- nor receives,” Taxation Discussed The matter of raising additional taxes also came up for comment, with Kepresentative William Watt, county, chairman of the committee, too heavy a proportion of the state and county: taxes.” He suggested [taxation of amusements, soft drinks and several other luxuries, as pro- posed by him in a bill four years ago. “The property in the city of Fargo is not assessed for 75 per cent of its value, as it should be,” said Watt. “The country land, however, 1s assess- ed for every penny of its value.” Employment of a county assessor, as suggested by Governor A. G. Sor- lie in his message to. the legislature, was briefly discussed, but no defi- nite conclusion was arrived at. Exactions of ‘Jazz Age’ Too Great For Youth of America Washington, “Tan. 17.)
