AMERICAN REPLY 1 CANADA IS PREPARED Stimson Declares Canadian Note on I'm Alone Is Tem- perate and Conciliatory Washington, April 10—(4)—Secre- tary Stimson said today that the American reply to the Canadian gov- ernment’s memorandum on the sink- ing of the rum running schooner I'm Alone was ‘eing prepared and that as soon as it had been delivered to the Canadian minister, “oth notes would be made public. Mr. Stimson said the tone of the Canadian note was most temperate and conciliatory. Newspaper accounts giving an impression that the note was truculent. he said, were in error and that the reverse was the truth. ‘The delivery of the note to the Canadian government will be only a matter of a few days, the secretary said. Bad Roads Knock Out Bus Line Here to Mott Application for permission to dis- continue its bus line from Bismarck to Mott has been made to the state railroad board by the Interstate Bus company. The schedule calls for daily service over the line, but no buses have been operated since January 20, because of impassable road: HR CERTAINLY THT We MY WeRD \ here; that's all,” At the left is young Hoover trying out the radio apparatus at the airport whi and enable passengers to have direct telephone communication with ground stations. report to Pilot Francis Miller and, in the inset, marking up the airport weather board from the reports he has just received. Los Angeles, Cal., April 10.—(NEA) While Dad is in the white house at Washington keeping a watchful eye over the affairs of the nation, young Herbert Hoover Jr. is guiding the des- tinies of a fleet of airplanes from his | tadio table at the Western Air express terminal here. “What is your official capacity with the company?” I queried at the close of a strenuous morning, during which more than a dozen camera men fol- lowed him here and there, photo- graphing his every move. “I'm just the office boy, that's all,” replicd the president's son. Is Radio Expert However, Western Air express of- ficials state that young Hoover is to be in charge of all radio operations for their line. The 25-year-old youth is a radio expert. having studied it extensively for the last 12 years. The job wasn’t made for him, either. He applied for it, just as any other per- son would apply for a job, and was hired “because of his thorough knowl- edge of and experience with radio.” “For the time being my chief duties | will be to handle weather reports and company business,” declared Herbert Jr. “Right now only one of our ships is cquipped with radio apparatus, but we are working out a plan for direct telephonic communication with all of them during the time they are in the air. “This.service will eventually be ac- cessible to the public. Persons having friends traveling on any of our ships will be able to talk to them at any time during the flight.” ‘Herb’ to Everyone Hoover is an extremely quiet young $000,000 DAMAGE IS Blackwell, Okla. April 10.—(P)}—A terrific wind and hail storm caused property damage estimated at $500,- 000 and injured at least six persons here last night. The wind unroofed buildings and crushed at least 10 residences. WEST POINT VACANCY West Point, N. Y.—Forty vacancies in appointments, that can be filled by sons of World war veterans killed in action, now exist at West Poin! “onl Somme f This 19 Co ° ;| Farmers in Grant —- smiles Herbert Hoover, Jr., who has taken over his new job as radio expert for the Western Air ich he will use to direct a fleet of passenger planes At’ the left, Hoover is shown turning over a radio weather fellow with a finely developed sense of humor. He also has a knack of making friends with nearly everyone with whom he comes into contact. Although he had been at the airport only one day when the writer talked to him, he already had become ‘Herb’ to everyone. “I like newspaper men—they're a nice bunch of fellows. But I don’t like those darned cameras,” he remarked. I hope that when you fellows finish. with me-today you will leave me alone for a long time. Being trailed by re- Porters and photographers all of the time really is embarrassing and it takes up a lot of time that I should be devoting to my work.” The Hoover family is not taking advantage of the fact that Dad is President of the United States and putting on a big show. They intend to live strictly within Herb’s salary in a comfortable but small home in San Marino, just outside Los Angeles. There are two small children. “Absolutely no pictures at home,” replied young Hoover in answer to my request to pose for some home pic- tures. “I don't mind so much what you do with me, but I positively will not drag my wife and babies into all this publicity. We are bothered enough with curiosity seckers around ‘the house now. Hoover's working hours are the same as those of everyone else at the field. The fact’ that he is the presi- | dent's son doesn’t get him any special consideration at all. Nor does he want any. He wants to make his way in this world on his own, and not be- cause his father happens to be a great man. + 2 County Start War | On Barnyard Rats | + Carson, N. Dak. April 10.—Grant yard rat. | tite One hundred bulletins on “The Rat and Its Extermination” will be dis- tributed in the near future by Theo- dore Martell, county agricultural agent.

A. R. Ruplin, of the Fargo office, was in attendance and gave the diners a talk on better mer- chandising methods. With the talk films were shown, illustrating the points made by the Fargo cxpert. They also gave views of the Akron and Los Angeles plants of the Goodyear company and of its manufacturing methods. The dinner was attended by 32 j Persons and was under the direction of C. A.

TUER ASSIGNED 10 ND, JODGES GRCUI + Washington, April 10.— (4) — Chief Justice Taft announced: today assignment AIRPORT T0 ROTARY Herbert O'Hare Another Spe: er at Luncheon; Plans for Minot Trip Announced The last call for Minot and the district cohference next Monday and Tuesday engaged the attention of the Rotary club at the noon luncheon to- day. Nick B. Mamer, the pilot of the Ford trimotor plane here, and Her- bert O'Hare were speakers of the day, the latter giving the Rotarians the story of his trip to Washington to see the other Herbert inaugurated as president. Most of the Rotarians are going to Minot in their own cars, but some intend to go in the Interstate bus. The roll was called on these and six announced their intention to unite with the Bismarck-Dickinson party of 20 and make the trip in a char- tered bus, L. K. Thompson announced that the conference opens at 8:30 Monday morning, with a preliminary registra: tion meeting, and proceeds to busi- ness at 10 a.m. It will end at 3:39 Tuesday afternoon. Paul Harris, the founder, will speak at 9:25 ‘Tuesday morning. F. W. Murphy promised to have the official monkey in-line when the big parade starts. Headquarters will be in the Leland hotel. Mamer Recommends Site Nick Mamer stressed the part Bis- marck can play in helping to bring about the northern air mail route through here from the Twin Cities to Spokane and Seattle and Portland. An important step is to acquire an airport here, he said. He 1.as out during the morning with a commit- tee of the Association of Commerce and of business people of the city, looking possible sites over, and he has recommended one. Mamer said the Ford trimotor type of plane makes the route more fea- sible than ever. With three engines to depend on it is almost impossible that a landing should be. forced in the Rocky mountains from Butte across Idaho to Spokane. Experts, he said, have figured it out by the law of averages and found that the possi- bility is as one to 3,000,000 or 4,000,000. To give an idea of the stage at which air flight has arrived as a commercial project, he said the plane he now’is piloting through here by way of Minot, Miles City, Billings, Livingston and Butte to Spokane, cost $60,000 and is a-very complicated piece of machinery. The duralum- inum metal of which it is built is a third lighter than steel, he said, and of the same strength, Club Will Cooperate Herbert O'Hare described the in- auguration of Hoover and humorous phases of the big event. He related some of the features contributed by the women, such as studying the gowns of Mrs. Hoover, Mrs. Coolidge and other members of the inaugural party with field glasses. He was much impressed by. the way in which Vice President Dawes reacted to the leavetaking from his office and the induction into it of Senator Curtis as his successor, concluding his farewell address with the remark, defiantly shouted, “I take nothing back.” - Guests of the day included, besides the speakers, F. B. Strauss, president of the Lions club, Worth Lumry, pres- ident of the Kiwanis club, James Cain, Dickinson, F. Kostedecky, Dick- inson, L. A. Loomis, Fergus Falls, Roy Baird, Dickinson, and F. J. Graham, Ellendale. The two presidents of the other service clubs pledged their cooper- ation with the Rotary club in any projects for the good of the com- munity that may be attempted. They said they would stand shoulder to shoulder in the front line trenches. AUNT LUCIA CAST AFTER SEEKING SITE He Never Misses - Eclipse of Sun Dr. John‘ A. Miller of Swarthmore college is among the numerous sci- entists. preparing to view the total eclipse in May. Dr. Miller, who ex- pects to study the phenomenon from Sumatra, is said to have seen more eclipses than any other astronomer.

Markus had been ill about six weeks and was taken to the hospital TEMPERAMENTAL Flappers All Ready to Appear; Members of Cast De- ‘ velop Nerves The cast of the play “Aunt Lucia” is nearing the tapering off stage, that is to: say, they are developing tem- perament. ‘Members are tempermental to the point where they must be handled with gloves.

Upon questioning, it was found that the doctor aspires to be a movie actress, from | Ford, the three uwners of the com- | f "| cash, stocks and saa about ten days ago. As a cobbler, Joe was known to all Mandan and to many residents of Bismarck. He was a Bohemian both by nativity and by a kindly, affable nature. Born in Goeding, the Ger- man name of a town in Moravia, March 19, 1864, he was a fellow towns- man of President Masaryk, the pres- ent chief executive of Czecho-Slova- kia, which is the new name of Bo- hemia. In his youth he learned the shoe- making trade and served. three years in one of Kaiser Franz Josef’s Aus- trian jaegar corps. He was a sharp- shooter and it gave him great pride that he was awarded military decora- tions for his skill. After serving his military term of service, he came to America, lured by the opportunities for freedom and Prosperity. He worked for a time in the iron region of Minnesota, where friends and a brother were located, then came to friends in North Da- kota and worked on their farm. Eventually he homesteaded a farm about ten miles south of Mandan. He went through great privations as a homesteader and it was an epic to hear Joe narrate his experiences, sitting by a warm stove in the winter evenings with storms such as ne had to contend with in the wide open spaces, raging outside. He laid the foundations of his fatal breakdown in those days. Mrs. Markus came over from Goed- ing in 1910. She also was a native of the village, her maiden name being Caroline Mieck. After proving up, the Markus fam- ily came to Mandan where Joe set up & cobbler shop on Main street. He also traveled through the Northwest considerably and at one time opened & cobbling shop in Portland. But business was not good on the coast, So he came back to Mandan and had shops at various times in both cities. His shop here was on Broadway oppo- site the Montana-Dakota office. The last shop was that in Mandan, on Main street. It burned one.night and Joe then retired, about two years ago. Mr. and Mrs. Markus had one son, Joe, Jr. He is an enlisted man in the Fourth infantry at Fort Lincoln. Joe had seven brothers and a sister. One brother lives in Baltimore, another in Hibbing, Minn. =/1928 FORD PROFITS WERE $082,629,562 Profit Surplus for Year Is $72,- 221,498" Smaller Than Preceding Year .—(P)}—The 1928 fi- nancial statement of the Ford Motor Co., filed with the Massachusetts commissioner of corporations, shows @ profit and loss surplus of $582,- | { mber 31 last, as compared with $654,251,061 for the| year 1927, Henry Ford, -his wife, and Edsel a shown by the statement ture’ and fixtures, $133021 368.62. », Feceivable patent rights $275,036,656.10.

Lowden of Illinois, here for his last stopover on 2 Medi- terranean trip before sailing for home on Friday from Naples, is studying the workings of tlie Inter- national Institute of Agriculture.

Mr. Lowden said that the institute had been performing a real service for the farmers of America and the rest of the world. Ambassador Fletcher is arranging an interview with Premier Mussolini for Mr. Lowden. It probably will take Place early Friday. Mr. Lowden denied reports that he was a possible candidate for one of the several vacant ambassadorships in Europe. “What am I going to do?” he asked. “I am going back to Amer- ica to be a ‘armer In. That's my trade, you know. I’ve been away from America longer this time than at any other time in my life and I shall be very glad to get back.” The former governor said that on the way home he expected to stop in Washington a short time to witness the session of congress called to ex- pedite farm relief. “I am greatly in- 4 rested in the government's extend- ing relief for farmers,” he said. “I sincerely hope congress will pass the necessary legislation without dif- ticulty.” While in Washington, he added, he will talk with government officials and others concerning farm relief. TURBULENT STRIKE CONDITIONS LESSEN Approximately 6,000 Mill Op- tratives in Carolinas Con- tinue to Be Idle Rome, April Charlotte. N. C., April 10—?)— Strike conditions in North Carolina textile mills appeared less turbulent today while the situation in South « Carolina remained at a_ standstill. Approximately 6,000 mill operatives in the wo states continued idle. At Foest City, N. C., where several hundred employes of the Florence Cotton Mills struck Monday, imme- diate peace seemed in prospect. The strike committee, after an all day conference with officials, called a meeting of the workmen last night and told them all demands with one exception had been granted. They said a 20 per cent wage in- crease had been denied. Other dec- mands were that an efficiency system be abandoned and that the efficiency expert employed by the mill be dis- charged. v A gradual demoblization of state troops at Gastonia, N. C., where cm- ployes of the Loray mill are on strike, was ordered yesterday, two units of | the five now on duty there are to be withdrawn immediately according to 4djutant General J. Van B.
