Forty attended the meeting. Myers also is secretary of the club. Arrangements with the Sidney fair board for the use of a motion picture to be shown in Cartwright or Char- bonneau are being made. Funds raised in the showing of the picture will be used in preparing a McKenzie county exhibit ‘ Dr. E. G. Booth, field agent, in agronomy of the North Dakota Agri- cultural college, gave a talk on dry- farming tillage methods and weed control. H. J. Siemens, McKenzie county agricultural agent, explained plans for the county exhibit to be shown at the Richland county fair, and explained how a 4-H club could be organized in the Pleasant Valley community. COMMITTEES NAMED Paris, May 30.—(?)—After 16 weeks axduous negotiations, at times seem- ingly hopeless, representatives of Ger- many and her creditor nations have reached an agreement on how much the Reich must pay for allied losses incurred during the World war. The total, over a period of 59 years effective as of .:eptember 1, 1929, was estimated today to approximate 113,- 000,000,000 gold marks or about $27,- 000,000,000. This amount, at 52 per cent interest, would represent a pres- ent or capital value of something more than $8,800,000,000. German acceptance of these figures, which are in effect those proposed as ® compromise by Owen D. Young, was given with reservations all of which the creditor nations have not been disposed to accept. Pending something approximating agreement on these reservations few close to the conference were willing, today, to pre- dict, unqualifiedly, its successful ter- mination. Conclusion of negotiations, with agreement or non-agreement on these reservations written into a final report to the governments, is expected this week. Permits Quick Change The agreement on figures came after rearrangement of the figures contained in Mr. Young’s compromise scheme to permit a quicker change over from the Dawes plan to the . Young plan, the average annuity of which had been accepted in principle by all parties from the beginning. ‘The creditor nations wished to have the heavy payments under the Dawes plan of 2,500,000,000 marks (about ‘$595,000,000) continue until the end of this year, but the Germans de- manded the Young plan come into operation as originally contemplated by its author on April 1, 1929. The difficulty was solved by splitting the difference, and making it effective as of September 1, 1929. Hitches Ironed Out Other minor hitches were ironed out by a certain rearrangement of annuities which did not offer the general average proposed by Mr. ‘Young. This average is 2,050,000,000 marks (about $492,000,000) for 37 years; 1,700,000,000 marks (about ‘$408,000,000) for 21 years; and 900,- 000,000 marks (about $216,000,000) for the final year. Members of the German ore est points Men to Receive Fire- men and Merchants Association of Commerce met Wed. nesday evening and considered ai rangements for ‘he meeting here of firemen June 18-20. with the several phases of the rece; tion of the conventions. To serve chants Roy P. Logan, A. W. Gussner, named. reception committee consists of F. and Ray V. Stair. England and Allies it provided for an int London, annuities until the figure of 2,000,000,- 000 marks was in the eleventh year, after which the an- nuity figure wou'd increase slowly, varying between 2,200,000,000 and 2,300,000,000 marks, resulting in an average of 1,988,800,000 marks, which would not include the interest on the Dawes loan. It was inferred in certain quarters that the new agreement implied evac- uation of the Rhineland before Jan- uary 1, 1930. , ( TEST PLOT PUES T0 ENDURANCE RECORD Los Angeles, May 30.—(7)—A new ark for solo endurance flying was ade here late yesterday when Her- J. Fahy, veteran test pilot for e Lockheed Aircraft company, land- after keeping his plane in the air 36 hours 56 minutes and 36 seconds. Fahy’s time eclipsed the 35 hours, 33 minutes and 21 seconds made last February by Martin Jensen at Roose- velt field, and the mark of 35 hours, 24 minutes and 59 seconds established at Roosevelt field last May by the late Royal V. Thomas. All the rec- ords were characterized as unofficial. Fahy took off Tuesday morning at , 4:48:05 o’clock.\ As he neared the marks established by Thomas and Jensen the test pilot dropped mes- sages indicating his gasoline supply ‘was running low but a check of his tanks showed he had three gallons of fuel left when the plane touched ground. ‘McClusky Commercial Club Names Officers (Special to The Tribune) McClusky, N.

LEGION 1S CONFIDENT BISMARCK MEMORIAL WILL GET VOTE OKAY Success Is Assured if Voters Go to, Polls in Large Numbers, Says Kamplin Confidence that the Bismarck voters will approve the increase in the city debt limit and the memorial building bond issue was expressed by the American Legion campaign committee ‘We have checked up the voters of Bismarck carefully, and they are overwhelmingly in favor of the pro- posal,” said a formal statement issued at the legion campaign headquarters. “Volunteer workers for the legion have canvassed most of the homes in the city and have indicated on report cards how various individuals will vote. We have checked up these cards and are satisfied that a progressive policy for a bigger and better Bis- ek will prevail. ‘Our records show that exactly 77.3 cent of the total registered vote of Bismarck will cast ballots next Fri- day in favor of the memorial building. They will vote ‘yes’ two times.” Urged to Vote Earl, Nearly 100 workers participated in a rousing meeting at the legion cam- Paign headquarters last night and reports of favorable sentiment were received from veterans working in all parts of the city. Campaign Manager Reinhart Kamplin told the workers that suc- cess is assured if the voters go to the polls in large numbers. He was the principal speaker. Another rousing rally was held last night at the Wachter school building, B, Strauss presenting the le- gion’s arguments to a large and in- terested audience. Confidence that the South Side will support the proj- »}ect was expressed by workers there after the meeting. Rev. Father John A. Slag. pastor of St. Mary’s Catholic church, was to fire the closing gun of the legion’s campaign tonight. He will address a the Richholt school. meeting .of voters of the East Side at Father Slag has actively supported radio in which he urged support of the memorial building bond issue. ‘Big Vote Will Win’ “Our only problem now is seeing that the voters get out in large num- bers,” said the campaign committee statement. “The fact that we need majority of two-thirds to carry the election makes it imperative that we have a large turnout. The few pull- backs whom we have discoyered in our canvass will be a small item if the full vote gets to the polls. If the vote is small they would have a bet- ter chance of mustering enougl. of a minority to defeat the proposal. For that reason the progressive people of Bismarck should remember that a fa- vorable attitude toward the proposal isn't enough. The only way in which they can make that favorable attitude effective is by casting their ballots to- morrow. It is the votes which win. “Some question hes been raised as to the possibility that the city will be plunged into debt for other things if the proposal to increase the debt limit carries. That will be impossible. ‘The city attorney has advised the city commission that the increase in the debt limit will apply only to the me- morial community building bond is- sue. In any event, any additional bond issue must, by law, be submitted to the people. The city could bond for $60,000 without increasing the debt limit. The additional $65,000 will ac- tually mean an increase in the city debt limit of less than 1 per cent.” CAST LOTS FOR DEATH La Paz, Bolivia, May 30.—(?)—The unluckiest one of nine men is to be executed by a firing squad at the scene of a crime while the eight watch. Ten bandits raided the vil- lage of Jesus De Machaca, killing and burning. The leader was sentenced to death. One of his followers to meet a similar punishment will be de- termined by lot.
