Senate bill 4, introduced by Sena- tor J. C. Forbes, Richland county, provides that when any action is commenced hgainst a township, the supervisor upon whom the papers are served may call a special meeting of the board of supervisors within six days after the serviee to plan for the defense. After the time limit had been extended from two to six days on motion vf Senator R. W. Patten, Mountrail county, the bill was passed without opposition. It eliminates the cumbersome system whereby the plan of defense was first submitted to the people. Senate. bill-22, introdueed by Sen- ator P. J. Murphy, Walsh county, and drafted by the State Band associa- tion, allows cities and towns to levy a tax not to exceed two mills provid- ing for.the maintenance and employ- ment ‘of a municipal band after the question has been submitted to the voters, and was passed, 36 to 7. Gas Tax Law Amended An amendment to the law providing for the gasoline tax passed with no dissenting votes. Jt requires that the state auditor credit to the general fund of the state, on each July 1, $25,000 of the funds colleeted under the gasoline tax. The fourth dill was a measure providing that all fees collected by the state securities commission shall be paid into the general fund each montia A concurrent resolution that in war time “all productive resources and ac- cumulated fortunes in excess of $500,000” be conscripted, introduced by Senator Peder L. Higlmstad, Walsh county, was also passed. An amendment to the law on la- beling and branding of flour, rec- ommended by Governor A. G. Sorlie in his message, was introduced by Senator W. S. Whitman, Grand Forks county. It provides that the label shall contain the name and address of the manufacturer and the place where the flour was manufactured, percentage of each kind of wheat used, what, varieties, and. whether grown in North Dakota. HEALTH HEAD GIVES FACTS ON MATERNITY Whittemore Declares 33 Per Cent of } ernal Deaths in State Are Preventable At least 33 per cent of the 89 ma- ternal deaths which occurred in North Dakota in 1925 were prevent- able, Dr. A. A. Whittemoye, head of the state department of health, de- clared in a statement issued today. These deaths were caused by igno- rance of the early danger signals and delay in taking the proper precau- tionary measures on the part of the prospective mother, the statement de- * clares. “It is the duty of every mother to guide and shape the destiny of her child until such time as it is able to stand upon its own resources,” the statement says. “Anything which prematurely shortens this period, es- pecially if the death of the mother: comes from known preventable cuuses, is a crime against our present day civilization. “In 1924 there were 212 deaths due to premature births and 231 in 1925, with the attendant dangers to the mother and loss of life to the state. A very ‘larga percent of these were from preventable causes. “In 1924 there were Q74 deaths of infants under a year old and 1,038 in 1925.. The 1926 figures are not yet compiled. Our infant mortality rate for every 1,000 live.births averages about 70. It should not be over 30 to compare favorably with some of the foreign countries having well- supported health departments—and before whom we 6.0 nation are in- clined to strut over supposed supert- or attainments.” The statement declares that “it is the duty of every citizen interested in saving lives of many of the moth- ers and infants to get these facts be- fore your senators and representa- tives ‘before it is too late.” ISCOPATE DENIES PART IN REBELLION (Continued ‘trom: page one.) have taunched an earnest aupelen to reetect him to the presidency to’ succeed Caljles.

Raiter, coro of Carlton county, disclosed.

In- ‘tense heat made rescue impossible. Home Building Body Has Annual Meeting C. B, Little, R. D. Hoskins, J. L. Bell and N..0.
