Y., March 21.—@)— Calm, dapper and apparently unper- turbed Henry Judd Gray, of East Orange, New Jersey, arrested in a hotel here early today, heard him- self accused of the murder of Albert Snyder, 45, art editor of Motor Boat- ing Magazine, who was killed in his home in Queens Village, w York, early Sunday morning. Gray, a corset salesman, heard the accusation with no show of emotion. He shugged his, shoulders and made a flat denial of the crime. Then he asked regarding his wife and child, who lived at East Orange. The accusation was founded upon the signed confession made in New York by Mrs. Ruth Snyder, 32, wife of the slain man. In that confes- sion, according to dispatches from New Yi Mrs. Snyder named Gr: yer of her husband. His death, she stated, was planned as the means of making it possible for her to wed the man held here. Will Be Charged With Murder When the officers had . finished their questioning, he was led to a cell to await removal to New York city, where, it was indicated, he will be formally accused of the murder of Snyder. * From the very start he denied all knowledge of the crime. mitted he knew Mrs. Snyde le stated, however, that he had not been in the vicinity of New York city for weeks. he aescribed the accusation as “ridi- according to the police, ad- love for Mrs. Snyder. He said, according to Chief Cadin, that he had been intimate with the wom- an. But he declared that he had never even seen Snyder, “I was too clever to go to the house,” Gray said to the police. He added the information that the last time he saw Mrs, Snyder was in Fes: ruary.

Since that time it hus traveled | all over the country and has appear- | ed at a number of state and regional | fairs. Harold Bachman, conductor of the band, was born in Illinois and came to western North Dakota with his parents when a boy.

SHANTUNGESE TROOPS FLEE; NO FIGHTING| (Continued from page one) a phase of a struggle to stem the conquering sweep of the national armies of the Cantonese government, whose capital now is at Hankow. First Marshal Sun Chuang-Fang, rul- er of Kiangsu province, undertook the task but his forces crumpled be- fore the northward drive of the na- tionalists, coupled with defections his ranks, attributed to nationalist propaganda. As Sun Shuang-Fang faded out of the picture, General Chang Tsung- Chang, Shantung leader, came down from the far north to the rescue. The nationalists quickly put him in diffi- the north, cutting in toward Chang!

It is con- sidered probable that a mandamus action will be started against Ste early this week. DEPARTMENT PAYROLL MAY AWAIT. DECISION OF COURT Possibility that the entire payroll for the state highway department may be held up until the legality | of the recent highway department reorganization is determined. by a court, existed here today. State Auditor John Steen toda; was awaiting the institution of court action seeking to force hin to pay certain bills approved by the new highway organization, and. pre- sented to Steen for payment. If the highway department payroll is certified to him in the same man- ner in which the other bills were certified he will refuse to pay it, Steen said. The auditor has suggested that in order to avoid such a contingency and make sure that the employes of the highway department get their money on time, the payroll be cer- tified in manner used prior to the reorganization. This would, mean that it would be signed by’ H. G. Frahm as chief engineer and secre- tary of the commission. Under the reorganization plan Frahm retains his title as chief engineer but J. J. Ermatinger was named secretary. The bills which Steen has rejected were signed by Ermatinger in his of- ficial capacity. _ Bronson Retained Ermatinger said today that the highway department has retained Judge H. A. Bronson of Grand Forks to represent it in the court decision which will be filed within a day or wo. ‘An effort will be made to take the case directly to the supreme court, it was indicated, thereby avoiding the delay which would result if the case were first tried in the district court and then appealed to the su- preme court. Some way may be found to adjust the differences between the highway department and the state auditor, Ermatingér said, so that the payroli may be paid without question. It is possible, however, that it will be cer- tified in the same manner as the other bills and that Steen will hold it up until the court renders its de- cision, Steen will be represented by the attorney general’s office which re- cently advised him that the highway department reorganization was il- legal because the- emergency clause contained in the act authorizing the reorganization had not legally car- ried. The attorney general held that the department may not be legally reorganized until July 1 when the bill would become effective in the ordinary course of events. Milwaukee Road Lowers Rates on Hay Shipments Reduced rates on hay shipments have been made by the Chicago, Mil- waukee and ‘St: Paul railway com- pany, effective March 10, according to information received by the state railrbad board. The new schedules are not emer- geney rates but will sup lant the old tariffs on this commodity. Persons having any difficulty in connection with the application of the new rates are asked by the railroad board to send their bills to thé board’s traffie department for adjustment. An analysis shows that reductions under the new schédule begin on shipments traveling 30 miles, rates on. mileage lower than that figure being the same as under the old schedule, The maximum reduction is on shipments traveling 150 miles, the old rate being 24.5 cents and the new tariff 20. cents. Community Chest en| |grown on a | Mandan News GRANT COUNTY FARMERS ARE GIVEN PRAISE Minneapolis “Tribune Article Tells of Progress in Dairy- ing, Legume Raising Praise for farmers county is expressed in an article by Charles F. Collisson which ap- peared in yesterday’s issue of the Minneapolis Tribune. The work of the Grant county breeding circuit is described in the article, which tells how the farm- ers maintain a cow-testing associa- tion which weeds out unprofitable “boarder cows” and how they own ommunity sires, which they’ ex- change among the herds for better breedin, Boys’ and girls’ clubs are also prominent in Grant county, the ar- ticle says, and points out that the county has 16 clubs, with nine new ones formed since January 1 and with six more in process of or- ganization. Theodore Martell, county agent of Grant county, is in charge of the club work and has also organ- ized four homemakers’ clubs in Carson, Lark, Elgin and Thain. A pure-bred sire campaign last year will be continued throughout 1927. Twenty-nine registered bulls, 11 rams and 12 boars were brought of Grant |in last year and the butterfat pro- ‘duction of the county largely in- creased. According to County Agent Mar- tell, Grant county farming is de- veloping a better balanced system and crops are now being diversi- fied in such proportion that the farmer is almost certain of some income, even in dry yeats, He declares that the big project is year is to get more wheat smaller acreage, to get more cows and grow more feed crops, and advises growing of al- falfa and sweet clover. Interest is growing in bee cul- ture, the agent says. He also de- clares that “more and more people are awakening to the fact that they can raise trees gut here.” In ad- dition to the county fair at Leith the first corn show at Elgin, sored by the commercial club, a suecess and Grant county had the largest exhibit at the state corn show except Burleigh county, scoring more points in alfalfa and sweet clover than in any other county.

G. Sorli told members of the Mandan high school basketball quint when he presented the trophy to them at al banquet held for team members and officials following the final game of the state tournament Saturday night. “We can well be proud to think that we have a set of young men growing up with this idea of sportsmanship in mind,” the exec- utive said. Speaking to members of the championship Grand Forks team, he told them of his pleasure in seeing his home town team win the title and told them that “If there’s something you want, go get it. Make up your mind to go down to Chicago and carry home the honors. You can do it!” The Grand Forks and Mandan teams were each presented with large silver basketballs, the cham- pionship and sportsmanship tro- phies. Individual miniature gold basketball watch fobs were also presented to the Grand Forks men. The Minot players received sil- ver basketball watch fobs, while Devils Lake, winner of third place in the tournament, received a fig- ure of a discus thrower and Fargo a miniature statue.

Gould, all of whom spoke briefly. * Tostevin expressed the pleasure which had been Mandan’s at enter- taining the tournament teams and praised the work of Jack Hintgen, who tock charge of announcing all games over KGCU. J: F. Nichols emphasized the fact that sports- manship was important and de- clared the main thing about a team’s. work should be “how it played the game.” Supt. B. F.

In varl-colored uniforms, the caers presented a unique appear- ance.“ Most of them wore Mandan jerseys but the black and white ot the Braves was often combined with the red of Grand Forks, the maroon and gold of Minot or the blue and white of Valley City. Each player called on to the floor separately, as the selections were announced for the first time to the crowd. The audience had been admonished not to cheer, but sup- porters of the various teams couldn't control themselves as they saw their favorites come on to the floor. It was “Grand Forks’ day,” as far as the scoring in the game went, for Schave dropped in a short one during the first period and Jarrett tossed in another in tl nd period.

Many Prisoners, he related, fabricate in- | genious stories of how they were | “railroaded” to the penitentiary | how- someone elsé committed the crime for which they are pa: ing the penalty, but evaded prose- cution. Mental irresponsibles often declare that they were told >| commit their crime, he Said. A feeling that society is against them is also characteristic, the warden said, and averred that | many gained the idea that robbery or theft was permissible because they convinced themselves that h people rob. others, too, only 'y do it legally.” “When criminals get to be 50 ars old or more, they begin to regret what they have done and think about ‘going straight’,” Lee seid, dispelling the current idea | that the younger inmates of the} institution are instructed in wrong- | doing by older men. He declared that the older men instead advised | jthe youths to “go straight” an‘ | realized how they had wasted their | es. | Most Criminals Uneducated | Most of the inmates have little | cr no education, the warden said, but pointed out that the percent- | age of illiteracy had decreased. All those who are not educated are | ae to attend night school, he | sail Warden Lee declared that the | feeling has grow? on the part of | some that it is clever to evade the | laws and “beat the government.” | He said that crime has increased by degrees because of the fact that | the mental and physical inferiors, }from which the criminal class is ilargely recruited, multiply faster | pies their inferiors, ! of training in home life, of high schools and col- to properly impress ‘their i al responsibility on the youth of today, indifference of the gen- leral public toward criminals and jenforcement of law were some of ithe things cited by Lee for the in- {crease in crime. The speaker went on to show at benefits had accrued t> so- from organized effort in {business and other lines and urged jthat the same effort be used to educate youth away from crime, Organization Needed “We should organize to try to do something for the man or wom- an who is not mentally capable of doing anything for himself,” Lee said, and averred that taxes could be. materially lowered if some such ;cheme were worked out. He de- clared that “what we need today is prevention and not detention.” Archie Johnson was chairman of | the day and Henry Halverson led the singing, accompanied on the ‘mano by 1. ©. Frendberg. Jos. ‘Murphy won the attendance prize, which was given by C. L. Foster. Plans for the annual convention, to be held at Fargo in May, were also discussed at the meeting and the executive committee held a short session at its close. North Dakota Gets Another Distinction St. Paul, March 21—(AP)— North Dakota is the first state in the Union to claim the distinction at putting the president’s arm in a bandage. The claim was ad- vanced Saturday by Senator Ger- ald P. Nye as he passed through here on his way home to Coopers- town, N. D. Senator Nye admits that the case for North Dakota is based on circumstantial evidence. President Coolidge appeared for duty Friday morning with his right wrist bandaged, No in- timation of the cause of the injury }was given out, but Senator Nye has his suspicions. Thursday, according to the sen- ator, Seth W. Richardson, U. S. district attorney for North Dakota, Osmund Gunvaldsen, U. S. mar- shal, and Senator Nye, went to pay their respects to the president. The new marshal is a strapping fellow, with a grip like a patent coupler on a@ box car, and of a heartiness vigorous and western. “I noticed,” said the senator, “that on parting the Paci gave us his left hand. It puzzled me for a’ minute until I remembered the fervor of the marshal’s grip, and next morning saw in the pa- pers that the president was wear- ing a bandage.” BENTLEY BOY DIES HERE Robert McMillian, seven-month-old son of Mr, and Mrs. C.
