Considerable buying of corn to- fay against sales of wheat helped at times to lift corn values.

(AP)—An im- ive demonstration of strength k place in today’s stock market | following the sweeping reaction of yesterday. All cl s of stocks pointed higher with violent advances of six to nearly 12 points taking place in a few volative specialties. The rally was accompanied by a marked reduction in the volume of trading. Fears of higher money rates, which developed as a result of the unusually large increase in brokers’ in erators for the advance marked up their favorites on the theory that a substantial portion of the January dividend and interest disbursements would find their way back into the securities markets. Weekly mercantile reviews showed a fairly cheerful tone and new build-| ing construction was reported as un- usually large for the first week of 1 red durum . . 1 flax .. No, 2 flax .. No, 1 rye .

The law was revised at the last legislative session to limit the amount which may be paid on per- manent total disability and death claims to $15,000 and certain other changes were made in it. Among them, the bureau has been advised by its attorney, was one which pre- vents the bureau from allowing claims for ankylosis or stiffness of the ee and partial loss of vision resulting from industrial accidents. One member of the board, R. E. Wenzel, contends that such claims should be allowed under the law and stated his views in the minutes of a recent meeting. The four other members disagreed, however, and approved the ruling that such claims should be disallowed. Although no test of the point in the courts is in prospect now, mem- bers of the bureau said, it is possi- ble that the matter may eventually be threshed out there and later presented to the legislature so that the law may be further repaired. Claims Rejected Are Small A number of claims already have been rejected on the ground that they were not compensible under the law but all have been for small amounts and did not warrant cost- ly legal action. Eventually, how- ever, a claim may ne presented in which the amount involved will be sufficient to warrant a test of the ruling. Only four or five death and total permanent disability claims have been affected by the law_ limiting the total payment since it became effective and reductions in premium rates as a result of its operation probably will be deferred for sever- al oe according to G. N. Liv- dahl, bureau inember. ” Rejection of the claims for par- tial loss of sight and ankylosis, however, is expected to result in decreased payments to beneficiaries in certain classifications of work with an attendant decrease in pre- mium rates for employers in those classifications. OIL MAGNATE 10 WED WARD 53-year-old President of Mar- land Oil Co. Announces Wedding Plans New York, Jan. 6.—()—The ro- mance of a 53-year-old oil magnate and his 28-year-old ward was dis- closed today with the announce- ment that they would marry within a month, E. W. Marland, president of the Marland Oil company and one of the wealthiest oil men of the south- west, adopted Lydia Miller Roberts when she was 16 years old. At the same time he and his wife adopted her brother, George, three years younger. His wife died in June, 1926. It was the devotion of his foster- daughter after the death of his wife, said Mr. Marland, that con- vinced him that he wanted her for his wife. Word of the approaching mar- riage, however, came as a surprise to the young woman’s mother, Mrs. George F. Roberts, of Philadelphia. She refused to discuss details of the adoption of her son and daugh- ter and said she knew nothing of the wedding plans. E BISMARCK TRIBUNE Three Ruth Snyder studies, these.

NEWS WRITERS NEED UNIONS, BLEYE CLAIMS Head of Wisconsin School of Journalism Speaks at Iowa City Meeting Towa City, Iowa, Unions for newspaper men were ad- vocated today by Professor Willard G. Bleye, director of the University of Wisconsin school of journalism. In an address before the Am nm Association Teachers of Journalism, he said lack of local, state and na- tional organization among the rank and file of newspaper men and wom- en on daily newspapers “is the most serious weakness,in the profession of journalism.” “In an age when every business, trade and profession is thoroughly organized, it is surprising that re- porters, desk men and editors on our daily pepapeners constitute the only unorganized body of brain workers in this country,” he said. , “Lacking professional organiza- tions, they lack the power to estab- ish and maintain standards in a field more essential for the preserva- tion of democracy in government and society than any other profession. Mr. Marland said that the wed- ding would take place at the bride’s Philadelphia home. Prisoner Plaintiff in Damage Case Boston, Jan. 6.— (AP) —Jesse Pomerey, world famous “lifer,” who entered the state penitentiary at Charlestown a 17-year-old boy near- ly 51 years ago, is the plaintiff in a $5,000 action in which he seeks to rove untrue charges that he has Been cruel to animals while in con- finement. Pomerey remains in his cell while two attorneys represent him before the Suffolk superior civil court. The defendant is Alice Stone Blackwell of Dorchester, publisher % of a magazine for women. It is easy to remove a dog's bark, veterinarians demonstrated in a Portland, Ore., clinic recently. More persons lose their sight betweent the ages of 45 and 54 than at any other period. Business Side Dominates _ “A period of American Gosia ment when business is the all-ab- sorbing element in our life, it is not remarkable that the business side of the newspaper should be the domin- ant one in our journalism. Serious- minded newspaper men are prone to lament this domination of the cir- culation and advertising departments of newspapers, but they have them- selves to blame in no small degree for this state of affairs. “Journalism will never rise to the level of other great professions un- til newspaper men and women in ac- tive service on daily newspapers throughout the country are organ- ized into strong local, state, and na- tional societies, nor effective meas- ures ever be taken towards solving the many problems of newspaper re- porting and editing until such or- sanlsstions are established to un- _ the task. Well organized circulation, advertising, and publish- ing departments of our newspapers il continue to exert the dominant intinance aise news and ediporial de- partments unless newspaper ters and editors organize tl ves in- to strong associations capable of asserting and maintaining the pre- eminence of the news and editorials in their papers.” Temperature and Jan, 6—)—| been made by State Treasurer C; A.

Bell, of the a of common pleas. He granted Charles H. Elston, cqunsel for Remus, time to perfect an appeal to the court of appeals, which pre- vented immediate removal of Remus to the Lima institution. Elston indicated that he might wish to appeal from the denial of the writ by Judge Bell. Judge Bell said that entry of today’s proceed- ings upon his court record would be withheld until 2 p. m. next Tues- day, that action acting automatic- ally to keep Remus within juris- diction of the court. Elston immediately filed an ap- peal from the probate court finding of insanity and commitment te Lima in the court of appeals, REMUS DECIDES TO ENTER STATE HOSPITAL FOR INSANE Cincinnati. Ohio, Jan. 6.—@)— Electing to carry out the remainder of his fight for freedom from the state hospital for the _ insane, George Remus, accompanied by At- torney Charles Elston, left here for Lima at 2:50 this afternoon by au- temobile, accompanied by Hamilton county doputy sheriffs, No definite statement was made regarding the intent of the move but it was understood that Remus planned to seek another writ of habeas corpus at Lima in courts lo- cated in neutral territory. The ap- peal taken this morning to com- mon pleas court, from the probate court decree committing Remus to the insane asylum, will be permitted to stand, Attorney Elston thought. Remus’ decision to go to Lima and enter the hospital came sud- denly and Attorney Elston would not commit himself to a positive statement of action contemplated. More people live in the state of New York than in the whole of Canada. The total gravitational pull of the sun on the earth would break a steel rod 2,000 miles in diameter.
