Weisner, the Agricultural college expert, had judged the pens. These awards may be ready for publication Tuesday. Judge Weisner had coi pleted his task of appraising the qual- ities of the displays and had named all who are to have places in the hall of fame of this exhibition. Sales Run High Sunday there was a big coming and going all day at the show. City folks took the time to go down to the In-| ternational Harvester show room to) give the feathered guests the once- over. Some visitors also wanted to/ look over the stuff that had been, brought in for the double purpose of exhibiting and selling. This selling plan of the show was @ big success. Sccrctary Miesen said, this morning, that about $1,000 worth | of breeding stock had been sold, con- sisting of turkeys, roosters and pul- Tets. Shipments are being made to all parts of the state. One of the displays that has been attracting considerable attention is a pen of turkins — that strange fowl of Asiatic exi.cction which has the body of a hen and the head and neck of a turkey. The dispiay is being made by William Brown, Mandan} poultry grower. The turkin body 1e- sembles a Rhode Island Red in feathering. The neck is bare and red and its skin is flabby, as in the case of the turkey. Falconer Sweeps Show W.

The two most likely to draw gene;zal interest are Senate bills Nos. 2 and 4. Senate bill No. 2, introduced by O. T. Tofsrud, Pierce county, curcerns grain storage, and No. 4, introduced by Senator L. O. Fredrickson, Nelson county, concerns the licensing of all dogs in the state. Because of little scheduled for Sat- urday’s sessions of the senate and the house and of the fact that a number of legislators had left for home over the week-end, ‘iere were seven empty chairs in the senate and 25 members were absent in the house Saturday. ‘). A. BATTLE OVER HEAD IS FORECAST General Bramwell Booth Will Refuse to Resign, Pa- pers Claim London, Jan. 14.—()—A battle ia the courts between General Bram- well Booth and those who seek to oust him from command of the Salvation .|Army was forecast by practically all of this morning's newspapers. At the same time a dispatch to the Daily Herald from Sunbury said that two high officers. had been summarily suspended by the anti-Booth party. Colonel Samuel Tucker, chief of the intelligence department at inter- national headquarters, was stated to have been removed from his post sev- eral days ago and to have been suc- ceeded by Colonel Cunningham. The second officer was not named. It was stated that he had been howled down land called a traitor by angry dele- gates at a secret session of the coun- cil. The Herald said that disciplinary action would probably be taken by the high council against several more officers, primarily because of their |support of the general. Nearly all the morning newspapers concurred in saying that the general's reply to the high council which his wife will present tomorrow wiil state that he is unable to comply with the council's request that he retire. The newspapers said the reply would con- tend that the council’s request was unconstitutional and that the general had no power to grant it. Therefore litigation seemed to be the likely course. pec ee see at ee REE ener Legislative Calendar | ——— 4 NEW HOUSE BILLS H.

In the opinion of some of Mr. Hoo- ver's friends, career men who have shown more than the average ability will be given recognition in the re-| alignment of the corps. Steps also will be taken to encourage the younger men who would make diplomacy their life work and to make it possible for them to attain to the higher posts, | |the personal cost of the maintenance. jof which now constitutes a bar to! most of them. There is little doubt that Latin- America will furnish the main field for aspiring career men while Her! Hoover is in the white house. A dinal point of his foreign policy will be the fostering of relations with the republicans to the south, and since his good-will tour it is evident that he regards this as a front line of American diplomacy. Frequent changes of diplomatic re resentatives in the southern republics is regarded generally as undesirable by those who made the southward swing with the president-elect. Another thing which was soon made evident to the members of ths good- will mission was that the recurring interventions by the United States into revolution-torn republics in Ce: tral America formed the basis for mis- understanding with other republics, and especially for rather effective anti-American propaganda spread by the nationals of foreign nations. President-elect Hoover has taken occasion several times to exp! his own ardent hope that the necessity for American armed intervention in a sister republic may er arise j again. It is believed that some of the causes for such interventions might be removed by American diplomacy made effective by representatives who have had the opportunity and the ability to build for themselves solid places in the esteem of both the gov- ernment and the people of these re- publics. Many phases of the whole problem of foreign relations have entered into the conferences which Mr. Hoover now is holding in Washington, for h2 by no means is devoting all of his time to legislative affairs and political appointments. He has talked with| some of the ablest men in, this field | in the country. | WALLACE STANDING TRIAL FOR MURDER Eleven Tentative Jurors Drawn at Minot as Williston Slay- ing Case Opens Minot, Jan. 14—(AP)—Bert Wal- lace, of Williston, charged with firs! degree murder of John Prosser near city on December 23, went on Sperry, Brostuen, Fowler, | Banks and king: ; Patten, | Fine, Fowler, Conrath, Crocker. ;terson, Renwick, Unruh..

Bismarck Printer’s - Insinuations Found False by Examiner contract te price hae ve fa and printer, to be thoroughly conversant with all phases of his work, an ex- perienced printer both in the tech- nical and estimating branches of the business. I am of the opinion that the is conducting the office in an honest, efficient and creditable man- ner. ~ Printers Cooperated The contracting printer has co- operated during the progress of this check by furnishing records and sam- ples upon request. The state de- | partments have willingly allowed ac- cess to records and furnished clerical help when needed. I wish to acknowl- edge to all-of these appreciations for their cooperation. So that this examination might be thorough, in accordance with your expressed desires, I have carefully checked the samples of all work done, | measuring the type and figuring the cost on the contract basis. All bills were examined by this method. No Need to Extend Probe If the fifth class is a criterion of the accuracy of the state printer in checking bills and of the manner in |which they are billed by the con- tractor, I do not feel that the state | would realize any advantage by ex- tending this examination to the other classes of state printing. All in- dications are that the result of such examination would be the same as the result of this examination of the fifth class, and to make such a check for a two-year period of all classes of printing would require much time and the expenditure of considerable money. My experience in checking the fifth class bills ‘leads me to the conclusion that such an examination would not be justified by careful business policy. Prices Unusually Low For your information, I might add that the prices for printing in North Dakota under the state contracts are unusually low. as compared with prices in other states. Despite this, however, I have found the printing to be of good quality and workman- ship and up to the standard in every respect. As your honorable body ascertained before entering into a contract .to employ me for this work, I knew nothing of the parties interested in having this examination made’ and know little more about them now. I feel it unnecessary to say that I have no interest in this matter and that my conclusions and findings are those of a disinterested printer who is conversant with all branches of the business. Highty Recommended While engaged in this work I have been happy to serve letters from Governor Theodore Christianson of Minnesota and Ray P. Chase, Minne- sota state auditor, which throw some light upon my qualifications. Copies of these letters are attached to this report. I take the liberty of men- tioning this that the record may show not only how this examination was made but the qualifications of the individual making it. Bearing on yout request for sug- gestions which would increase the efficiency of the state printing de- partment, I would advise the instalta- tion of a simple, up-to-date system, including the necessary forms and specifications, which may be done at a later date if desired. Filing System Suggested A filing system should be installed for the purpose of keeping a sample of cach job, together with the itemized invoice, receipt from depart- ments and proofs of alterations or certificate from the department re- quiring such alterations, so that a {complete check may be had at any time, thus avoiding the necessity: of procuring samples from the printer and obtaining invoices: from the au- itor. Invoices should be rendered in de- tail and in duplicate, one copy for the state printer's file with his nota- tions thereon as to additions or de- ductions, the other to be OK'd for payment and passed to the auditor's office in the regular routine, Much time and labor would be saved by putting through one vouch- er in statement form each month, or twice a month, to which copies of itemized invoices are attached, thus making one entry and warrant in- stead of separate warrants for cach invoice. This is the plan followed in other states. Invoices should have contract prices of the various opera- tions printed in the proper space to facilitate checking and eliminate er- rors due to using wrong prices. ‘When stock not specified in the Fly ise figur ae i Be: 3? a ef i af sion by the contractor of items which} lowed for these items by the state could be charged under the contract. T have found Mr. Curran, your state |}; hich procedure is justified the fact that he deems this to be a reasonable charge. This point was taken up with the attorney general who made to de- cision bearing on the case since no question of law was involved, but it is evident that the first paragraph under the binding sp<zifications does uot refer to prices.on check binding or “ binding, If the contractor based his price upon this assumption he should be allowed to make a reas- o..able charge for the material in binding operations. Only Minor Errors. In making these recommendation: it is only proper that your commi: sion have te benefit of the knowl- edge and experien:: of your exam- in While this check has disclosed no evidence of dishonesty or of pad- ding of bills, numerous minor errors were discovered which do not tend to inerease the efficiency of ‘the de- vartment or mak: for the best. re- lationships between the printing con- ctors and the state. In disclosing this fact this examination may prove to be of lasting benefit to the state printing commission with re; to this phase of the state’s business. T feel: sure that, if the recom- mendations made herein are follow: ed, most of the causes of misunder- standing with regard to state print- ing contracts will be eliminated. - Respectfully yours.

Dear Arcl This is just a line to inquire’ con- cerning your wélfare and health and how your work at North Dakota's capitol agrees with ‘you. i I haye been thinking about you quite a little, today. Our sister state is very fortunate to get a man like you to help in te line of work you have been handling. Since I came to the capitol there has heen no one in the printing business in th> Twin Cities, so far as I know, who has cre- ated and received the esteem and re- spect of his customers and of the gen- era. public to a greater extent than yourself. Of course, the fact that you served as state printer during Joe Mannix’s term some years ago naturally gave you a considerable in- sight into the public printing of this commonwealth, and the knowledge thus acquired must have been added to tremendously as the years passed, through your familarity with the needs of the state based upon study of the bids and compliance with the contracts you received. You have done a lot of work for this depart- ment in the last twelve years. So far as I can recall, we have had nothing from you and your firm except the most courteous, helpful treatment, the best services and a high grade prod- January 7, 1929. uct.

Blymer, pow-wow doctor, John Curry, 14, and Wilbert G. Hess, 18, were convicted within five days after they were indicted for the mur- der of Rehmeyer. Hess, last of the trio to be tried, was convicted Saturday night of murder in the second degree, which carries a penalty of 10 to 20 years’ imprisonment. Blymyer and Curry were found guilty of murder in the first degree. Life imprisonment was recommended by the trial juries. 9 STATE SCHOOLS IN STUDENTS’ CONTEST Emporia, Kan., Jan. 14—Nine high schools of North Dakota entered the Every Pupil Scholarship contest January 8 at the Kansas State Teachers college of Emporia.
