EARTHLY GARBER OF MYRON T, HERRICK Is ENDED IN CLEVELAND America Pays Last Tribute to Ambassador to France at Simple Services Cleveland, April 15.—(#)—America bade ‘a sad farewell today to its dis- tinguished and beloved ambassador to France, Myron T. Herrick. ‘With an impressive ceremony in Trinity Episcopal cathedral, the final rites were said which marked the close of the earthly career that led Mr. Herrick from Ohio farm boy to one of the highest posts of trust in his country’s service. Draped with flags of many na- tions, the chancel of the cathedral, with its tall lighted candles, cast a sombre light upon the casket that stood at its.f¥ont.” Atop the unopened casket was @ Black satin pillow bear- ing the medal of the legion of honor. At the foot was a large silver palm. Both decorations were expressions of tribute from France to the ambassa- dor that it looked upon as an adopted son. . The solemnity of the service was heightened by its simplicity. There was no sermon, and except for wreaths from President Hoover, Myers Y. Cooper, governor of Ohio, and Secretary of State Stimson, at the request of the family, there were no flowers. The vested cathedral choir sang three hymns, “Nearer, My God, to Thee,” “Lead, Kindly Light,” and “Abide With Me.. A slow tempo organ processional opened the services promptly at 10:30. + Lindbergh Is Mourner Seated in the front, facing the casket were the relatives, the am- bassador’s son, Parmely Herrick, Mrs. Parmely Herrick, their son, Parmely Herrick, Jr., and O.

Because of its restricted’ agenda, the special session launched today may fail to furnish a conclusive an- swer, but even with the activities of | 98 the legislators limited largely to farm relief and tariff revision some inter- esting possibilities present them- selves. Friends of the president anticipate that he will have little difficulty with the house because those in the lea ership there long have been his su porters; because there is far better than a safe party majority, and be- cause the rules can be invoked to ex- Pedite legislation. Has Paper Senate Majority Quite a different situation is pre- sented in the senate, however, for the Republican majority there is largely a paper one with a number of unknown quantities entering into the equation of both domestic and for- eign questions with which the ministration and congress will have to deal during the next four years. In the view of most political ob- servers, one of the big question marks is Senator Borah, of Idaho, chairman of the foreign relations committee, even a more outstanding figure in congress than heretofore, now that Charles Curtis has been ele- vated to vice presidency and “Jim” Reed, of Missouri, has retired to his Kansas City law office. The Idaho senator was one of the first of the big party leaders to throw his support to'Hoover at Kansas City; campaigned-. vigorously.-for him h the farm belt, and generally is credited with having had a weighty voice in the counsel which led Mr. Hoover to promise the farmers the extra, session of congress to consider farm relicf legislation. Differs On Foreign Policy But Senator Borah differs with the chief executive on several matters of foreign policy and is just as likely to differ with him on domestic issues, as he is an independent in legislative matters and never supports a measure simply because it bears the label of his party. At the outset, the president finds three formidable foés within his party fold in the senate—Norris of Nebras- ka, who espoused the cause of Alfred Smith, the Democratic presidential candidate, and La Follette and Blaine of Wisconsin, who were openly hos- tile to Hoover in the campaign. Others of the Independent Repub- licans supported the chief executive in his battle for the presidency, but naturally there is conjecture as to how far they will go along with the Issues other than that of farm relief. Brookhart Backs Hoover Senator Brookhart of Iowa, carly declared for Hoover and in various addresses from September to Novem- ber hailed him as “the best friend” the farmer ever had. The president fails. to.go as far ina program of financial aid for the farmer as the Iowa senator would like to have him go, but Brookhart is expected to sup- Port the farm bill embodying the plan Outlined by Mr. Hoover in the cam- paign. Senators Nye and Frazier of North Dakota, also identified with the inde- pendent group, supported Mr. Hoover for election, but it is no secret that they are not altogether satisfied with the farm plan as it is now taking . Whether their dissatisfaction will find voice on the senate floor re- mains for the future. sareaz|3 MARINE AVIATORS piste et KILLED AT MANAGUA L.

N. Cary, 73, active for nearly 50 years he real estate business in Mandar and a pioneer surveyor of the Missouri Slope country, died at 10 o'clock this morning after an ill- ness of one year. Mr. Carey suffered a major opera- tion @ year ago but failed to regain his strength because of his advanced e. Funeral services have tentatively been planned for Wednesday under the auspices of the Masonic Lodge No. 23, Dakota territory, instituted December 29, 1881. This lodge later was made Mandan Lodge No. 8 of the North Dakota Grand Lodge. “Forty years is the major part of the ordinary man’s lifetime; in the development of a new country it is but a moment,” said Lyman H. Cary a@ few months ago previous to the general decline in health that today brought his death. “Years ago I pre- dicted that some day all the tillable lands of this vast empire of the West- ern Missouri Slope of North Dakota would be peopled;I predicted develop- ment of our towns and villages, our schools and natural resources. Peo- ple thought my visions the chatter of @ land man, yet today, though I have raited what seems a long time, gaug- ing from my own life span, yet today the raw prairies are as I foresaw they would become.” Cary Faced Hardships Lyman Northrup Cary, despite all the adversities that the pioneer citi- zen may know; despite short crops, hot winds, disappointments of every nature, never lost faith in western North Dakota. His faith was con- ceived in April, 1881, when he first came to Mandan. The city was then a collection buildings and tents. Gambling, saloons, dives of all kinds, waged: a frontier trade warfare for the hard earned dollars of the railroad track layer and bridge build- er; the horny-handed freighters who hauled supplies from the railroad to ae Black Hills and hauled back The Northern Pacific had begun work on its railroad bridge across the Missouri river which was to be used for the first time in 1883. It was a boom country in which the polished Scholar of the east rubbed elbows with the untutored trapper and Indian trader. Eastern money was pouring into the west for investment. Cary was made the general land agent for the North- ern Pacific for the vast territory south of the Missouri river and west to the Montana line. It was range country then, unfenced, unbroken, but Cary saw the possibilities of farming. Showed Faith in Slope For 48 years he handled real estate transactions. He not alone sold Northern Pacific land, but invested heavily in lands himself, proving his faith. Many times he has been “land poor” but he always worked out a s0- lution of his problems.

D., April 15.—(7) —To set at rest rumors current here, John Knauf, counsel for A. W. Guest, superintendent of the state hospital for insance, today announced that there is no resig- nation of the superintendent in the hands of the board of admin- - istration. Something of a mystery today had been thrown around the effort of the state board of administration to re- move Dr. A. W. Guest as head of the state hospital for the insane at Jamestown. That an agreement had been reaca- ed appeared certain. The mystery concerned the terms of whatever so- lution had been found for an appar- ently unsolvable problem. Members of the board, who Satur- day conferred with John Knauf, Guest's attorney, had little to say for Publication, and refused to amplify their statement, made following the conference, that charges which had been drawn up against Dr. Guest Would NOT be filed. ‘ The board also asked that newspa- permen, who had received copies of the charges under a confidential ar- rangement, which ,would have re- leased them for publication when filed, return them to the board and (Continued on page seven) $1000 FRE GUT PARGO STERN BLOCK Fargo, N.

Although its program had been ten- tatively set to include farm relief, the related subject of tariff reapportionment of the house, and @ Measure setting a date for beginning the enumeration of the nation’s popue lation, no one would venture @ pre- diction as to the life of the session. The president had been represented as favoring a limited legislative pro- gram, but he had made it plain he would not attempt to tell congress what to do. So it is up to the Repub- lican leaders to guide the destinies of the session. They also favor @ limita- tion of activity, but Democratic lead- coe threatened to oppose such e group there to eight.
