D., Sept. 14—Three @ years after the first house was built _ in 1868 within the present limits of Grand Forks John Fadden, one of Grand Fot earliest pioneers. was | avanted a charter to operate a ferry | ficross the Red River of the North | / near the site of the present Minne- | ) sota avenue bridge. and thus paved he way for the first regular means of transportation across the historic stream. Only two years before the first » eressing of the river at Grand Forks James J. Hill, then of the firm of | Hill, Griggs & Co. had made his, famous trip by dog sled. following the trail of the mail carriers, to Win g. That was in 1869. The fut “empire builder” was so impressed with the necessity for transportation facilities on the Red river that he sent Alex Griggs, a member of his firm, to examine the river and its |, possibilities for boat travel. And in the same year in which the first ferry was begun here, 1871, the steamer Selkirk was launched, and after this ship came a number of others, all of which navigated the Red | for many ycars carrying passengers and freight of all kinds up and down the river.

FORKSSPANHONORS [Moves sa Troe Fred of Beer Roedsand Bites NATIONAL BANKS TAK AGREEMENT REACHED AT N.Y. CONFERENGE tional Act Will Make Valid Minnesota Law | St. Paul, Sept. 14.—(4)—A tentative lagreement to amend the national banking act, which will make pos- sible reenactment of Minnesota's laws to tax national banks held invalid by. the U. 8. supreme court in March, 1927, has been reached between rep- resentatives of the bankers and the association of states on bank taxa- jtion, it was announced today by Sen- ator George H. Sullivan, Stillwater. Senator Sullivan made the an- nouncement in a telegram to state officials today from Saranac Inn., N. j¥.. where he attended the national tax conference, representing the asso- ciation of states on bank taxation, of which he is president. His announcement is of far-reach- ing importance to Minnesota and more than 30 other states, which have been unable to tax national banks under their old system as @ re- ‘sult of the United States supreme court decision. Minnesota has not reenacted new laws pending federal legislation amending the national bankers under a “Gentlem-n's agrec- |ment” between bankers of the state and legislators, first drat: in 1927 and repeated once more at the last session. The high court has ruled that un- der the provision of section 5219, fed- eral statutes, national banks cannot moneyed capital coming in competi- |tion with national banks. Since the decisions were rendered, several un- successful attempts have been made to have congress amend the section so that national banks might be jtaxed at the same rate as state banks. In the case of Minnesota a barrier he reenacting the laws was the ex- \istence of the registry tax, which is a lower rate than was appli- be taxed at a higher rate than) livan as president. Senator Sullivan heads a legislative interim committee authorized to seek amendment of the national banking act by congress and to frame legislation which will place national bank taxation on the same basis as the taxation of state banks in Minnesota. |LEAGUE OF NATIONS Tentative Plans to Amend Na-; RECEIVES PROTOCOL Provides for Adhesion of United States to International World Court Geneva, Switzerland, Sept. 14. —(P}—The League of Nations as- sembly tonight opened the door for the United States to become a member of the permanent court of international justice by adopt- ing the protocol providing for American adherence to the court. Geneva, Seept. 14—(7)—The pro- tocol providing for adhesion of the United States to the world court for international justice was formally submitted to the League of Nations assembly this afternoon, by M. Polites of Greece in the form of a report of the committee on legal and consti- tutional questions. The mt which the protocol embodies will affect the right of the assembly to ask for an advisory opin- fon from the world court. Hitherto this question has formed the chief objection on the art of the United States to entering the court. Article 5 of the protocol presented the assembly provides the machinery whereby the United States will be made aware of any proposal before the council or assembly of the league for obtaining an advisory opinion, thus giving the United States op- portunity to indicate whether her interests are affected. ‘Thus the council or assembly can act with full knowledge of the situation.
