Y., Oct. 8.—(P)— Rested after a week-end of golf and motoring, Governor Smith today re- turned to the task of revising plans submitted to him by the Demo- cratic national committee for his second campaign tour. Tentative pee call for the Dem- ocratic standard bearer’s departure from Albany tomorrow at noon, al- though this may be deferred until Wednesday. After spending the better part of a day in New York City conferring with party leaders, he will board his special train, which has been l.ept intact since his 6,000 mile journey through the west, and head towards Dixie, stopping at sev- eral cities en route for greeting well-wishers. Washington has been mentioned as one of the lag stops where a reception probably will be held in the train sheds and several cities in the “Solid South” are understood to be on the lists for rear platform ap- pearances. Governor Smith will deliver but one speech during the week, that at Louisville, Ky., next Saturday night. He has not disclosed what his text will be, but now that Herbert Hoover has made his formal bid for support in the south, some of the ene supporters here believe e will devote at least a part of his address in the Blue Grass state to a reply to his Republican opponent's remarks at Elizabethton, Tenn. Tennessee will have plenty of op- portunity to get its first glimpse of the New York state executive before he invades Kentucky. That border state will be his first destination after leaving New York, Chatta- nooga and ‘Nashville being on the schedule for a fll day of confer- ences Friday with prominent Demo- crats. As Chattanooga is close to the southern Tennessee t order, some of those connected with the gover- nor’s campaign feel that his visit there may be mede the occasion of a big rally and reception, with not only Tennesseeans but well-wishers from adjacent sections of neighbor- ing states particiapting. LEGIONNAIRES PLAN CONTEST ‘Awards to Be Made in 1930 and 1933 for Best Post Activities Records Fargo, N. D., Oca 3.—(AP) --His- torians of American Legion posts who keep the best records of post activities are going to be in line for fale to be given in 1030 and The report of ‘the committee on trophies and wards adopted at the summer meeting of the national executive committee approved an offer of Eben Putnam, ational his- torian, to provide for the awards. The awards in 1930 will be made for the best post histories submitted to the committee prior to May 1, 1930, The 1933 awards will be made on histories of posts which are sub- mitted not later than May 1, 1933. The rules for the contest are as foliows: The committee to judge the manu- scripts or books is to be composed of three department historians ap- peinted by the national historian. This committee is to be the role judge of the suitablity of the his- torics submitted. The author of the post history which appears to the committee to best meet the conditions, regard:ess of the extent of the manuscript but with due regard to the difficulties encountered in its compilation, is to receive a Legion badge with medal appended, done in gold and duly in- scribed. The post to which he be- Jongs and of which he has written the history, is to receive a miniature movie outfit or the cash equivalent as a credit toward purchase of a more expensive one. The authors of the two post his- tories which in the estimation of the committee appear to most nearly meet the requirements after that to which an award has already been made, are to receive similar badges with medals. The authors of the five next best peg bivserie are to receive Legion s with gold clasps with either the words “Post Historian,” “Hon- le Mention” or similar designa- | red tion inscribed thereon. Hettinger Studies Poultry Diseases Mott, N. D,, Oct, 8.—Tiring of annual loss of $20,000 through poul- t) Hollywood, Calif, Oct. 8.—With | out a doubt the show started at the Pompon cafe near here is the wild- est and most risque on the Pacific coast. It easily equals anything to be found in New York, center of night club activity. Twelve strik- ingly beautiful girls scantily clad —so scantily, in fact, that one’s imagination is practically useless. Capacity Crowds They are the attraction that is drawing capacity crowds to this little night club—crowds composed of film celebrities, bankers, big business men and a handful of the so-called fast traveling younger gen- eration. y “How do they get away with it?” That is the question spectators asked one another as the show pro- ressed, with the grils changing from one semi-nude garb to anoshet. The answer is simple—the Pompon is outside the city limits. Otherwise it would have been padlocked on the opening night. * In one act, “Bouquet of Girls,” the girls are completely unclothed above the waist. In the other acts their variety of costumes consist mainly of scanty trunks with the upper portions of their bodies cov- ered only with an extreme traus- parent material which is no better than nothing at all. Come to Blush Again Some of the patrons blush. at the first appearance of the girls, one of the waiters told me. But they always come back again. And yet these girls are but a step ahead of the flappers who can be seen nightly in almost any cafe, their costumes only a trifle less scanty than the present-day flapper dress. After reading Aimee Semple Mc- Pherson’s denunciation of night life in the Montmartre quarter of Paris, I wonder what the noted evangeli would think if she would visit this night club almost in the backyard of her famous Angelus Temple. Not that the Pompon chorus can even rival Parisian modes from a risque viewpoint. But it would’ be interesting to watch Aimee attempt to convert this bevy of beautiful semi-nude girls. And the show goes on. Fag Law Under Cover Men Urged by Shafer Adequate enforcement of the state cigarette law requires a larger ap- propriation and the employment of “under-cover” men to apprehend law violators, according to the report of Attorney General George F. Shafer, who has charge of enforcing the law. Experience convinces him that violation of the law is widespread, Shafer said, and that a large quan- tity of cigarettes is sold by dealers without stamps. In _ practically every case the dealer is licensed and the purchasers of unstamped cigar- ettes seldom report the fact to the department. As a result, he said, secret investiga’ are necessary. The present biennial appropriation of $9,000 is too small to have this work done well, he said. A statement by the state treasurer shows the cigarette tax produced $68,582.34 in 1925; $257,917.98 in 1926; $260,281.09 in 1927 and $863,- 598.03 in 1928, The figures are for the fiscal year ending June 30. Sunday Schools to Convene at Steele Steele, N. D., Oct. 8—Important | hi phases of Sunday school work will epee in for attention when members of the Kidder County Sunday School conference hold their annual. con- vention here October 14. Entertainment features of the con- vention are being arranged by Miss Mary Grover, Steele, secretary of the conference. Rey. C. A. Armstrong, Fargo, state superintendent, will preside at the meeting. Maddock Designates Fire Prevention Week Proclamation designating _the week of October 7 to 13 as Fire Pre- vention week in North Dakota was issued today by Governor Walter Maddock. Stating that the enormous destruc- tion of life and property by fire as a serious economic problem which can and must be reduced and checked, the governor pointed out that fire losses were reduced in 1927 for the first time since 1919.: This reduction, he said, resulted from, de- termined and continuous effort by various agencies and should be con- tinued, The proclamation calls on all North Dakota citizens to cooperate with the state fire marshal and local fire departments in their efforts to luce fire losses, and asks- public civic and trade organl » Newspapers, school officials, service clubs and women’s clubs to support the fire prevention .move- ment throughout the year.

Shafer Favors Capital Penalty for Murderers Attorney General Also Recom- mends Dropping Legal Offi- cer from Many Boards; Gubernatorial Candidate Makes Many Law Change Suggestions Revision of the law to relieve the attorney general.of membership on numerous boards and commissions together with changes which he holds necessary to improve. the criminal statutes of the state are contained in the annual he of! Attorney George F. Shafer, filed re- cently with Governor Maddock. Copies of the report, along with those of other state departments, will be printed and furnished to members of the le; ture. Included in Shafer’s recommenda- tions for changes the criminal law is one which reaffirms his be- that the statute abolishing capi- tal punishment in this state should be repealed. Shafer made this recommendation two years ago and a bill to provide the supreme penalty for murderers was the subject of ited it the last regu- lar _legii mn. Pointing out that a number of cold-blooded murders have been com- mitted in North Dakota in recent years by men engaged in commit- ting robberies, burglaries and other crimes, the attorney general gave it as his opinion that e only straining influence which human ciety can exercise as protection against this class of individuals is the imposition of the death penalty in certain cases.” Shafer’s idea is that professional criminals reckless in°teking lives where the supreme penalty is not imposed and that restoration of the death alty in North, Dakota would pene the tendency to commit murder on the part of tran- sient criminals and make North Da- kota safer from such invasions. Other recommendations w gard to changes in the criminal law contained in the report are: 1, A new definition of the crime Te- Charter No, 2434 THE Loans and discounts . from:U. 8.
