N. Wheeler, of the federal forestry bureau, several weeks ago before the Lions club, was proposed at today’s noon luncheon of the club. The idea brought f was to plant trees along the roads of the state, beginning with highway No. 10. To give the proposal more tangible form than ‘a mere idea, President W. 8. Ayers appointed a committee to develop the plan. He named ‘William Doty, William Couch and William Schantz as.the committee. Doty sald the scheme had worked well in Michi- gan, where the sctiool children of the state had been led to plant the trees. ‘The tree proposal catried with ita suggestion for fuller attendance at the luncheons than has been obtained during the vacation season. President ‘Ayers and former President F. B. Strauss suggested that the time of the year was at hand for considering projects for the welfare and ‘beautifi- cation of the city and surrounding country and this, they urged. im- plied the need of full attendance for discussion. ‘The club also has under considera- tion joint mectings with the other service clubs for discussion of com- munity projects. As a committee on three joint mectings, the first to be held in November, President Ayers named Joseph Spies and Fred Peter- son. to act in conjunction with him- self.

BLAME LOW LEVEL OF RIVER 10 LAKES Lack of Navigable Water in Mississippi Partly Due to Chicago Stoppage tary Good has been informed curtail- ment of water flowege from Lake Michigan throuzh the Chicago river has been an important contributory cauce of the present low level of navigable water in the Mississippi valley and a consequent abridgement of the services of the inland water- way corporation in transporting ag- ricultural commodities. This circumstance was called to his Ashburn, chairman of the corpora- , and a war department investignr tion has been indicated.

BOMBS ROCK THREE CHICAGO SUBURBS Daniel Klosovsky, Passing Va- cant Cottage, Injured by Flying Bricks Chicago, Sept. 9—(4)—Three North ducers of the Red River valley huge | Shore suburbs, as well the section near Milwaukee and North avenues, Chicago, reverberated over the week- end to explosions presumably caused by bombs. ‘Winnetka police searched several hours before they found the spot where an explosion occurred Satur- day night. It was in a vacant lot, but fragments of material used in bomb making were found in the vi- cinity. Police believed dynamite for juse in the manufacture of bombs had been cached there. Two contractors were the victims Bluff. A bomb was placed in the driveway of a yard used by Lawrence in his home were broken.

An explosion incidental to a fire of incendiray origin did $10.000 damage at the Lake Bluff home of Joseph Kuharske, also a contractor.

McCurdy, then state's ai torney, upon direction of the boar of county commissioners, entered into a stipulation with John Sulliva Mandan attorney representing Pa‘ terson’s interests, which gave Patter- son a substantial reduction in the amount of taxes due. Sullivan then moved, before Judge G. Grimson, Rugby, that the Rugby justice sign finding of fact, conclu- sions of law, and order for judgment based on the McCurdy-Sullivan stipu- lation. This motion, with another {made by Sullivan, was denied by Judge Grimson. Sullivan expected to file with the supreme court this afternoon an ap- peal charging that Judge erred in denying the motion. appeal should fail,” Patterson's at- torney said today, “we will make an appeal on Judge Grimson's jude- ment.” The judgment was mede last | month, Taxes Patterson is ordered to pay in the judgment follow: $7,478.20, with 6 per cent interest from date of tax sale, 1920. $9,001.49, with 6 per cent interest from date of tax sale, 1921. $9,236.40, with 6 per cent interest | “bre: from date of tax sale, 1922. $10,444.74, with 6 per cent interest from date of tax sale, 1923. $9,331.71, with 6 per cent interest from date of tax sale, 1924. These sums, in addition to $42.20 court costs, total $45,724.74. Patter- son, however, has paid two sums to the county, which must be subtracted from $45,724.74. They are $35,456.35 and $969.70 torether with 6 per cent interest from dates of payment. This puts Patterson's unpaid taxes in the neighborhood of $9,000. VARE SEAT BATTLE MAY BLOCK TARIFF Norris Introduces Resolution to Deny Pennsylvanian a Seat in Senate Washington, Sept. 9.—(P)—An im- mediate decision on the three-year- old contest over the right of Willian Hayes, for storage of supplies, and{S: Vare.

Norris offered a resolution to deny Vare a scat just as the senate was about to t: up the tariff bill. Th: resolution has privileged statu nd no sooner was it presented than fear was expressed in some quarters that action on the tariff measure might be delayed for some time. Norris is op- posed to the tariff bill. ‘The resolution, which was a surprise to the administration leadership, said Vare had recovered from his illness and therefore “na further reason ¢x- ists for longer delays on the part of the senate.” at 3 A. M. Sunday i state penitentiary here af 3 a. m. Sunday. They are John Grant, alias Wally Martin, George Smith, alias Frankic Thomas Kirwin, and John Mitchell. They pleaded guilty to the robbery charge before Judge George M. McKenna at Napoleon shortly after 10 o'clock Saturday night. Prison authorities today had not decided what sort of work the quar- tet would perform at the state insti- tution and announced that it would be several days befo.c they would be put to work. Prison numbers of men follow: Smith, 5010; Grant, 5011; Mitchell, 8012; and Kirwin, 5013. Though the men were liable for aggregate sentences on charges of committing a felony with the use of a deadly weapon, robbery, grand larceny, and carrying concealed weapons, it is believed they were given comparatively light sentences because of their voluntary guilty pleas, This relieved the state of what might have proved expensive trials for each of the men. Spirited away in the sedan which they used i the Gwinner robbery, the robbers left the Cass county Jail, Fargo, shortly after 3:30 p. m. Satur- day. They had been incarcerated at | Fargo since their arrest. Announce- ment of their intention to plead guilty came as a surprise. An at- torney who had held several confer- ences with them said that he did not expect them to plead guilty. ‘Taking no chances on an attempted break for liberty, Sargent county officials were prepared for plenty of trouble on their trek from Fargo to Napoleon and then to Bis- marck, . A car loaded with armed men in front of them and another machine carrying armed deputies following, the bandits had little chance to make a ak.” Sheriff O. H. Flados, A. G. Kennedy and John Bowers, Sargent county deputies, A. J. Manners, Cass county deputy, and severat others were in the party which brought the bandits to Bismarck. With the closing of the case Satur- day, W. C. Macfadden, secretary of the North Dakota Bankers associ- ation, announced that the standing reward of $500 offered by the asso- ciation for the capture and convic- tion of bank robbers in all probability will be increased in this case and that Ruben and Leonard Benson, the two Gwinner youths responsible for the capture, will receive most of it.

It was the intention of the Repub- lican leadership to defer settlement of the Vare case along with any other controversial matters until the regu- lar session in December, in the hope of driving the tariff bill through to a decision before that time. The Norris resolution elted the his- tory of the Vare investigation and re- called that it showed expenditures by the Vare ticket in the 1936 primary campaign of $785,000. : Nonstop World Trip Reports Are Denied By Graf’s Official Fried¢ichshafen, (@—Reports that ce 9 around the world was planned for the Dirigible Graf Zeppelin, as a sequel to her great flight with stops at Fried- | tlehshafen, Tokyo, Los Angeles and | declared Lakehurst, today were to be without foundation by Captain Hans von Schiller.
