Opening % to a cents down, wheat held near to the initial range. Corn and oats were easier, and provisions steady, with corn starting uhchanged to %@'s'cent off, but later recover- ing somewhat. Estimates’ at hand today pigced Argentine wheat shipments this week at as much as 4,800,000 bushels, a de- cided increase. over recent totals, Emphasizing this news was word that European importers had refrained from following the latest advances in ptices both in Argentine ‘and North America. On the other hand, pit observers here noted a better commission house demand today for small ot purchases of wheat for future deliveries. This cireumstance was taken in various quarters as implying perceptable en- largemnt of outside interest in wheat, despits today’s early setback of values.

Steel’s Favorable Earnings Report New York, Jan. 26—-(#)—Selling Pressure was lifted from’ today’s stock market and prices rallied brisk- ly on heavy buying for both accounts. The sudden change ‘in speculative sentiment was due largely to the pub- ication of an‘ exceptionally favorable quarterly earnings report by the United States Steel corporation, and the increasing indications of a pro- longed period of easy money rates. The brisk manner in which a num- ber of stacks were. bid up indicated that the floating supply had been materially reduced by the: absorption by strong. interests on the recent break. Pools resumed aggressive dp- erations in a number of issues, Col- umbia Carbon, Lowes, and Erie first preferred, being marked. up to the highest price in years. Chesapeake & . Ohio, which was wenk yesterday on rumors of new financing in connection with Van Sweringen merger plans, rallied four points, coincident with ‘the resump- tion of conferences arranged’ in the hope of compromising the differences between the Cleveland capitalists and the minority stockholders committee. Substantial recoveries also were made by a number of other recent wenk in the railroad group. The recent Improvement in the te: tile industry, was reflected in the opening of thé fall staple serge and overcoating: lines of the American Woolen company, at prices 2% to 714 |N cents a yard above the spring levels. Directors of, the C operating a chain of res clared a stock dividend of four per cent, payable in four installmetns.

He asserted that criminal dockets would be less crowded if some of the money spent in prosecuting these youths had been spent in teaching them that it is wrong to violate the laws. | Shuts Door of Mercy ; “I am opposed to capital ment,” Lynch continued, “beca' it is shutting the door of mercy against the offender. I don’t want to close ; that door even against a murderer.

Juries “hand- picked” by attorneys for both sides, publicity-seeking lawyers, newspaper headlines of violent crimes and | bought witnesses would combine to conviet innocent men on “jobbed" evidence, he contended. Senator C. G. Ritchie, Sheridan county, attacked the views of Patter- son and Lynch. “All the arguments so far have been in favor of the crim- 1,” he said. ve pi et the crim- 1 or murderer,” he said, but asked “How about the innocent man whose life has been sacrificed?” He went further to charge that if North Dakota has a bumper erop t! ‘all, armed gangs of murderers who | headquarter in Chicago will raid the banks here that would be filled with deposits. “Gangs will hunt out North Dakota for raids if there is no capi- tal punishmént,” he asserted.

Senator P. O. Sathre, Steele county, also ‘urged passage of the bill, He said that he has sufficient faith in juries to trust them with a man’s life, and asserted that capital punish- ment would act as a deterrent to erime. It would also be the quickest way to force men who have killed to reflect on their crime, he said. The bill was denounced by Sena- tor J. C. Forbes, Richland county. “Capital punishment should forever be relegated to the outgrown, out- lived realm of public evils,” he de- clared. “Imperfect men have no moral right to visit vengeance on their fel- low men,” he said. Forbes contended that most crim- inals are so because of some disease of body or mind, and challenged the assertion that capital punishment would act as a deterrent to crime. “Science, sociology and Christianity join voices in righteous condemnation of this barbarous, brutal “bill,” he concluded. World War Blamed Senator Hamilton deeried the idea that some still cling to the ancient “eye for an eye” attitude.

He asked how the state can take a man’s life when the state has taught him to kill. “The taking of a criminal’s life never brimgs back one drop of innocent blood,” he said. Senator J. E. Eastgate, Grand Forks county, in explaining his vote for passage of the bill, said that he want- ed to go back to the middle ages or further if necessary so “we can dish out to some of these crimii they have coming.” f Those voting agaihst the bill we Senator Atkins, Bakken, Benson, Brant, Carey, Conrath, Crocker, Erickson, Ettestad, Fine, Fleckten, Forbes Fredrickson, Hamilton, Hjelmstad, Lynch, McCrory, Magnu-| son, Marshall, Martin, Olson of Barnes county, Olson of Burleigh, Ol- son of Eddy, Pathman, Patten, Patter- son, Peck, Tofsrud, Whitman and Those ti 4 ‘hose favoring its passage Senators ever devised if community sentiment, |~ | Cox, {contended, punishment is of no good | y|they feel Baird, Bond, Brunsdale, | apolis, PAGE SEVEN Eastgate, Hart, “Ketschinar, ~ Me- Lachlin, Murphy, Ployhat, Porter, Ritchie, “Rusch, Sathre, Schlosser, Seamands; Steele, Btevens, Van Art: am and Van Camp. °° ‘NO-SMOKING’ - BILL REMAINS - ON STATUTES (Continued from page one) ing rooms but that it was wrong to attempt to “legislate manners into people.” 3. M. Thompson, Burleigh county, admitted that there shouldn’t be a need for the “no-smoking” law but that with it smokers could be stop- ped from becoming too offensive. He doesn't like smoke with his meals and objects to having it blown in his face, he said. Rabe, sponsor of the minority re- port, said North Dakota is the only state with such a law and that people in other states believe North Dako- tans are not quite lized because jthey seem to feel the necessity of having one, Cox Wants Law Returning to the rece! me Repealed fray after the to listen to the eapital punish- debate in the senate, Gordon Burleigh county, admitted that he smokes in public and that the present law is an attempt to legis- late manne} 4 strong aver- sion to ga , but doesn’t expect a law bar from dining rooms.

The practice of women smoking in | public is spreading westward, he sal and warned the members not to “kid” to see a themselves that the women of their families wouldn't do it, The trouble with the whole matter, averred, is that he the legisiaters effort is made to enfore event, he said, the petitions which would come pouring into the legisla- ture would compare with petititons against the repeal, filed by the W. C. T. U., like the compiled lawbooks of the state would compare with a small printed bill, William Watt, Cass county, cons tended that those who smoke in pub- lie dining rooms infringe on the rights: of the publie at large. | Calls it a “Fool La Having let his cigar go out during the discussion, Twichell said he al- ways favors the majority and that \when the minority objects it is on | the wronp 8. The majority of per- sons, he id, want to smoke when ke it. He objected to having such a “fool law” on the stat- ute books, John Halcrow, Pembina county, author of the “no-smoking” law, de- fended the bill, saying it really was legislation for pure air; that it is a “chivalrous matter” and not an at- tempt to legislate goodness. It was a necessity when it was passed, he said, and still is. A previous tilt had occurred in the house, however, when the audit re- port of the guaranty fund commission was filled. Certain members demand- ed that the report be printed in full Others objected that ary and a waste of | money. | J. H. Burkhart, Ward county, mi- nority leader, contended that the | guaranty fund is of more interest to |the people than any other one thing jand that they are entitled to full in- |formation. A motion by H. F. Swett, | Kidder county, that the entire report |be printed was lost, 44 to 67, and it |finally was decided to refer the re- port ‘to a special committee which is examining audit reports of other state departments with a view to printing those parts which it regards | as important. | Mrs. Minnie D. Craig, Benson coun- |ty, explained the procedure adopted |by the committee for sifting out the | material it conceives to be of in- | terest. Trubshaw Gives Minority Report brief argument ensued when Trubshaw presented a minority re- | port on his bill to increase the penai- |ty for driving an automobile while | intoxicated. People are running wild jand endangering sober motorists and jhe wants to make the present law more drastic, he said. The “present |law provides a fine of from $50 to |#100, a 30 day jail sentente and sus- pension from driving up to one year. Trubshaw sought to increase the | maximum fine to $100, the jail penal- |ty to one year and the suspension from driving to not less than one year or more than two. 8. W. Thompson, RéMhsey county, |opposed the bill on the ground that j if the penalty were too severe and judges were given no discretion juries would be reluct#tt to convict. Since there are various degress of law vio- lation judges should be given some discretion in fixing penalties, he con- tended. Twichell‘ agreed with this state- ment, pointing out that judges now have the power to suspend motori: from driving and R. E. Swend 1.
