Lincoln Shute, pastor of the Methodist Episcopal church in Bis- marck from 1910 to 1913 and who re- cently has returned from Ur, Chaldea, 4s a busy lecturer today on his find- ings concerning a civilization in ex- istence 1,500 years before Abraham. ‘This is indicated in a report from Erie, Ill, where Rev. Shute is pastor of the Methodist Episcopal church, In his lectures he reveals a civiliza- tion of such high oPder as to be the wonder of modern scholars, it is said. On the screen he shows the oldest in- scribed tablet yet uncovered, an in- scribed brick of Kurigalzu which he brought from Ur, a lady's headdress and gold toilet set, a king's gold hel- met, a gold dagger, and the partial restoration of such a house as Abra- ham, who resided in Ur, might have occupied before leaving for Haran.

Edttor Tribune: In your issue of the 16th there ap- peared a letter from a citizen of Bis- marck in opposition to the proposed community building. The American Legion has. provided a pamphlet that covers every aspect of this matter so thoroughly that I am not going to start any general discussion here. However, the letter you published contained one statement that so near- ly expresses the viewpoint of the average voter who has not stopped to look on both sides of the question, that it fits in very nicely with the problem of the coming election. The letter said “The City Auditor- jum is another white elephant finan- cially speaking.” In other words, we should not have any theater in Bis- marck unless it could show a profit to the city. There is just one trouble with the auditorium. It is too small. ‘The original plans called for a much larger building, and one that could be used by our growing city for many years. Unfortunately, opposition sim- ilar to that now appearing community building was influence the plans, the present inadequate auditorium resulted. It is no secret that there is no money today in operating a theatre in a city similar to Bismarck. If the city did not own our opera house, we would not have any. Can any intelligent voter ask that we be deprived of all opportunity to have a place of public assembly, even though an actual profit 4s not’ shown in the yearly statement? Moreover, it must not be forgotten that the auditorium is continually being donated by the city for various community gatherings. Who profits from them? The community building will never cost Bismarck one dollar, in spite of the fact that the yearly statement may always show a loss. There are conventions that cannot come to our city now, because we have no place to house them, that would spend enough money with our hotels and merchants to more than make up any deficit. This is hard for the taxpay- er to, see, but money gained and cir- culated in Bismarck must in the end - of benefit to the entire commun- ity. Bismarck is enjoying a most sat- isfactory growth.

Bek ; i A if f I MAY 24, 1929 | Flute Tooter and | His Shooter Mrs. Lillian Flemings, top, of Alloway, N. J., seems to have taken seriously the various jests about shooting the neighborhood saxophone player. Only her particular neighbor, Lewis Col- ler, below, the town postmaster, went, in for organizing a fife and drum corps. All of which led to sounds which Mrs. Flemings felt were far from soothing, so she loaded the fam- ily artillery cs paps Collier through age anyway, as most of it is only in the two-leaf stage. Where it develops that flax has been injured, the acre- age will undoubtedly be planted to corn for silage. Corn planting is about 50 per cent completed in South Dakota and south- ern Minnesota, and it is just getting under way further north. Very little of the corn is above ground. There are a few complaints of wire worms, @ pest which thrives in cold, damp ground. Where the damage proves excessive, the acreage will undoubted- ly be later sown to flax. Unquestion- ably the corn acreage will be mater- fally increased. Winter rye continues to look healthy, but warmer weather is need- ed for its growth. ‘On the whole, there is a sufficiency of moisture to take care of the crop in its present stage of development, but warmer weather and good rains are badly needed, if the present ex- cellent prospect is to continue. Stephenson Got Color Views on Bad Lands On Recent Trip Here W. L. Stephenson, Miles City Photographer, formerly a resident of Bismarck and New Salem, was in the city this morning on his way to Aberdeen, 8. D. Mr. Stephenson was here recently and on his way back to Montana stopped off in the Bad Lands and took a lot of panchromatic views of the conformations, some of them in panoramic size, for display in movie theaters. As these are in na- tural colors they make a fine scenic Presentation. Conscription in War Time of Industries Sought by War Body |in Washington, May 24.—()—The war department is preparing for early submission to of a bill to mobilize industry in war time on the same basis that manpower is con- scripted.

The paucity of clues has hampered the search and it has not been de- termined whether the trio was killed by one man or several. A worn cap, found on the premises, remained to- day, the only clue as police pressed their hunt for a 157 pound safe, stolen by the attacker or attackers. Loss of the safe led to establish- ment of robbery as a motive for the slayings although investigation has revealed Schuch had but $25 in it when he was killed. Joseph Naymaster, arrested at Mar- shall Tuesday, has quite definitely been absolved of connection with the killings. He is held, however, at the request of Marshall police, who claim he is wanted there on a check forging charge, SCHWAB SAYS STEEL PROFIT INADEQUATE Bethlehem Steel Magnate, in Address, Warns Against Expansion New York, May 24—(7)—Charles M. Schwab, chairman of the Bethle- hem Steel corporation, in an address today before the American Iron and Steel Institute, of which he is presi- dent, declared that, while there is & greater demand for steel now than there ever was before, earnings of the steel industry are “{ar from adequate to provide for the industry's future service to the country.” He said 70 per cent of the industry last year got a return of 6.35 per cent on its investment. Mr. Schwab issued a warning against over expansion, particularly at the expense of a diminishing sup- ply of raw material, and said the two most important problems now facing the industry are “intelligent individ- ual control over our productive ca- Pacity and earnings adequate to pro- vide for the future requirements of our ever expanding industry. “Iam just as optimistic about bus- iness today as I have ever been in the past, and that applies with equal force to our industry,” he said. “I believe that steel really has entered upon a new era of usefulness.” James A. Farrell, president of the United States steel corporation, who spoke after Mr. Schwab, said that the latter had covered the steel situation thoroughly. He again referred to an apparent over-production of 10,000,- 000 tons of steel @ year ago, and said that today it was impossible to take care of the demand for some pro- ducts. “We have been prosperous, but we must use our judgment if we are to have continued prosperity,” he said. 3 New Instructors Sign Contracts for Jamestown College Jamestown, N.
