Bills passed by the house included ty of Fargo; $18,000 to complete the new infirmary at the state tubercu- losis sanitarium at San Haven and $10,000 for the Florence Crittenton Home, Fargo. The fourth bill was one by J. K. Olafson, Pembina county, designed to aid estates in the sale of real estate by. reducing the amount of the pur- chase price which they are required to'obtain as cash payment. M f the house and senate ses- sion s taken up with the intro- duction of new bills. The senate had 61 listed when its session closed and the house had 39. Have Administration Support Two of those introduced are said to have the direct support of the ad- ministration. Representatives John- son and Brunsdale of Traill county offered a measure to increase the terms of supreme.court justices from six to 10 years, one of the five judges tq be elected each biennium. Rec- ommendation that this be done was contained in the inaugural address of Governor Shafer. The other was a bill, offered in the senate by Kretschmar of McIntosh county and Sathre of Steele county. It provides for the creation of a com- mission of five to study the ing laws of the state and those relating to other financial institutions such building and loan associations and savings societies. The commission would be appointed by the governor and would complete. its labors. by November, 1930. The idea is to pre- sent a comprehensive plan for revi- sion of the laws governing financial institutions to the legislature in 1931. Another bill which is expected to create considerable interest provides a tax of 10 cents a ton on all coal mined in the state. The revenue from the proposed tax would be divided, 25 per cent to the state general fun and 75 per cent to the school fund of the county in which the mine paying the tax is located. Bridge Recommended. The senate: highway committee recommended passage of a bill to erect a bridge across the Red river Mildred Burns, right, and Georgia Graves, left, are two American dancers now scoring hits in European capitals. . . . * . . Los Angeles, Calif., Jan. 19.—(NEA) | —Is America going to steal dancing honors so long held secure in Europe? Indications are beginning to point that way. While European dancers are no longer secking the spotlight in competition, American dancers are achieving fame and fortunes on the other side of the Atlantic. And Los Angeles is rapidly becom- ing the center of study not only for our own American dancers but for Europeans who want to compete with the invasion from this continent. At the present time five local danc- ers are winning laurels in European capitals and all are pupils of Ernest d| Belcher of Los Angeles, internation- ally famous instructor. Beth Beri is appearing at the Gaiety Theater in London. Mildred Burns is the prima ballerina in “Topsy and Eva,” now having an extended run in the same city.

The outstand- ing success of these and other Ameri- cans in Europe can be attributed largely to the World War, which this country because of the keen robbed the Continental nations of their best teachers. . Consequently the foréigners have come to this country and most of them to Los Angeles to study. Leon and Nanette. a dancing team from Edinburgh, Scotland, are now here studying with Belcher. F. K. Lowe, a New Zealander, also came to this city to study acter seeing films of the Belcher school. “The long period of study before their careers began is the secret of the European success of my dancers,” declares Belcher. “Until recently pu- pils have remained in my school four or five years before sceking a salt ied position. “However, things are changing now. Motion picture prologs, which draw hundreds of girls from dancing schools, are shortening the periods of study, to the detriment of the dancers. Only a lengthy period of study is a sure guarantee that a talented girl will develop into a ballerina.” Wouldn't an instructor say just that? during the past year, was awarded to the Steele County Farmers Press, Finley, at the mid-winter meeting of the North Dakota Press Association yesterday.

Distribution of the awards followed an explanation of the judging system by Bruce C. McCoy of the University of Minnesota.

Reception of New Studebaker Models The most enthusiastic reception ever accorded new Studebaker models greeted the introduction of the new President Eight and the new Com- mander at the National Automobile show in New York, according to word received from New York by the Bis- marck Motor Co., Studebakcr-Erskine dealer here. show were The Commander Convert- ible Cabriolet and the new five, pas- senger Brougham on both the Presi- dent Eight and The Commander chassis. The Commander Cabriolet was finished in a smart new shade of canary yellow with black running gear, wire wheels, and many bright touches of gleaming chromium plate. Many critics judged it the smartest car in this year's motor exhibition. ‘'Dodge Business May Reach Peak With the total 1928 production of Dodge Brothers cars 12.8 per cent above the 1927 mark, according to figures announced today, Dodge Brothers corporation, is entering 1929 with prospects of the largest year in its history. Monthly shipments of cars and trucks have exceeded the corresponding months of 1927 in nearly every case and, under the guiding genius of Walter P. Chrysler, the company expects to establish new production records,. according to Charles W. Matheson, general sales manager. ‘The new Dodge Brothers Six, intro- duced at the New York show, is at- tracting unusual attention. The rich and unique color combi- nations, graceful lines and roominess of the eight body types evoke much favorable comment from visitors at the show and hotel lobbies. The spacious Dodge Senior, intro- duced late last summer has enjoyed as the tongue, pen and sword of the unusual popularity for those who seek the highest quality in motor cars.

Price Cut on Willys-Knight Medel | Toledo—The Willys-Overland com- pany is opening the attack in the new year’s drive for still greater Willys- Knight volume with a drastic reduc- tion of $50 on the Willys-Knight model 56, already the lowest priced Willys-Knight car ever built. The new } rices are at a level which would have been impossible a few months ago before the completion of Willys-Overland’s great manufactur- ing program which has brought re- markable economies to bear on this year’s production, according to state- | ments by Willys-Overland officials. The reduction on this model at this time reflects the company's aggres- sive sales and production program for 1929 which calls for the sale of 130,000 cars during the first quarter of the year as compared with 76,608 cars in the first quarter of last year. The model 56 Willys-Knight brought out in 1928 played an impor- tant part in attaining Willys-Over- land’s record breaking sales and pro- duction for the year. The model was widely accepted because of the smart lines and roomy comforts offered in ‘the compact Willys-Knight chassis and its superior mechanical features emphasized by severe road and track tests which established the supremacy of the smaller Knight motor over many others. NEW RUBBER MOUNTED HUDSON POWER PLANT GIVES 85 MILES PLUS In outward aspect, the new rubber- mounted power plant of The Greater Hudson—as the new car is called— remains the 3'2x5 F-head motor de- veloped by the company. In its dif-| ferent performances, however, the engine betokens the adoption of & number of refinerrents. The actual delivered power output is increased from 80 to 92 horsepower, with speed, hill-climbing ability and other oper- ating features correspondingly bet- Among the engineering features af- fecting the engine are a newly per- fected “moose horn” type manifold through which a thoroughly equal- cylinders.

Visitor Says Bonzer | Has Idea That Works Well in Minnesota L. C. Vobayda, of the staff of the First Minneapolis Trust company, is here on business on a tour that will take him into Montana. He was a caller on the First National bank of- ficlals this morning. The Minneapolitan was much in- terested to note the introduction of the Bonzer highway commission re- vision bill. He said the one-man com- mission is in existence in Minnesota and has given satisfactory results. Like North Dakota, the Minnesota highway program has come to the point where maintenance restricts permanent construction and there ‘was a plan on foot to make a $20,- 000,000 bond issue and do more hard- surfacing, he said, but Governor Christianson, like Governor Shafer here, is-opposed to any such issue. DUCE’S DOUBLE TROUBLES New York, Jan. 19.—(@)—Frank Valentino, barber, is a double of Mussolini, but it has caused him a bit of bother.

This fundamental improvement does away with all troublesome foot fumbling for the starting button, usually located in a somewhat in- accessible position. You can keep your foot always on the brake when starting or re-starting on a hill—an obvious safety advantage of major importance. “Finger-Tip Control” also avoids changing from the comfortable driv- ing position to reach a light switch on the dash. You can at all times keep your eyes on the road, and the hand that operates the button can be flashed back to the rim of the wheel in any steering emergency. Greater beauty and improved design in new Whippets and Willys-Knights The ultra-modern lines and larger bodies of the new Superior Whippet are winning the enthusiastic praise of Four and light Six buyers, while the new etyle.
