It is planned, also, to investigate transferring Lieuten- flyer, to sea duty, after he had been conducting experiments intended to develop fast seaplanes. Williams re- signed from the navy after he had been ordered to sea duty. Tyding’s resolution said the order “had the effect of causing his resignation and bringing his valuable experiments to ‘an end.” Tydings explained today that his resolution was not intended to “pick @ quarrel with the navy.” “All I am after is the facts,” he asserted. “The navy department may be entirely jus- tified in everything it has done.” COUNTY BOARD ASKS SUPPORT FOR NEW COURT HOUSE PLAN George Will, President, Out in Statement Urging Need of Proposed Building Formal approval, voicing the fact that the board of county commission- ers is not perfunctorily back of the new court house proposal but favors its ratification by the voters Tuesday, ‘was given the proposed $250,000 bond issue, today, by George Will, president of the board, in a statement issued over his signature. Of the proposed new building, his statement said: “Lest there be some misunderstand- ing as to the attitude of the county commissioners toward the new court house, I should like to make the fol- lowing statement, both on behalf of ‘the other members of the board and of myself: “The board, of course, felt itself practically under a mandate to bring the matter up, owing both to personal appeals to its members from all sides and to the recommendation of the grand jury a year ago. In addition, the board has recognized, perhaps better than anyone else except the county officers, the really shocking conditions existing in the building. More than once: the matter of new and safe vault space outside the pres- ent building to accommodate one of- fice or several has been investigated and estimates obtained and the re- sults in expense and inconvenience have been so hopeless that such plans had to be abandoned. “Every member of board knows that the building is a fire trap of the worst sort, unsanitary and unhealthy, that the county records are in danger every minute and that the jail, in spite of every effort to take care of it, is dangerous and filthy. “Further, the heating plant is ex- pensive to operate beyond all reason, inefficient, and far from safe under the general conditions of the anti- quated basement. f 4 , it is felt that we 8% that they had taken 957 worth of clothing.

No Lions Luncheon St. Patrick’s Monday; Dinner in Evening There will be no Lions luncheon, Monday noon. This is due to the club celebrating St. Patrick’s day, Monday evening, with a stag party at the den under the G. P. A program will be put on in addi- tion to the dinner. John F. Sulli- van will give his talk on prohibition | brought up to date as a result of the Literary Digest poll. The members have been divided into two membership teams under the captaincy of Sofus Robertson and Abe Tolchinsky, and the one turning in the lesser number of recruits will have to pay the dinner bill. 'ROAD-BUILDING SUMS WIGHT BE INCREASED BY QUARTER BILLION ADOPTED BY RUSSIA Trial of Will Company Varieties Convinces Soviets It Is Their Type Carn has been grown in southern Russia for several centuries but the varieties grown there are such as are grown in Ohio and Illinois. In cen- ral Russia the claim always was con- idered too late for corn, just as it in North Dakota not so many ago. ‘During the past ten years, however, agricultural scientists from ussia have been visiting and study- in this country, and they have heard of the early and hardy varie- ties of corn grown in the Northwest. In fact, a number of them have per- sonally visited Bismarck to inspect the breeding plots and contract corn fields of Oscar H. Will & Co. and the Mandan experiment station. | ‘As a result of these visits, trial or- KAYE DON PREDICTS CARS WILL TRAVEL ~ SUOMILES AN HOUR Tires and Wheels Are Biggest Problems Now In Speedy Land Travel By TED GILL Daytona Beach, Fla., Mar. 15.—(?) —Prediction that a land speed of 300 miles per hour or more would be established within the next few years was made today by Kaye Don, Brit- ish race car driver, here awaiting favorable beach and weather condi- tions to make an assault upon the world’s automobile straightaway rec- ord of 231 miles an hour. He declared he could make no estimate of what the actual land speed limit would be but said that with the present rapid development in the automobile industry the time is not far distant when the present record would be considered “slow.” “Just what the exact limit will be,” he said, “is something no one knows. ‘When Sir Henry Segrave did 231 here last year the world was astounded and declared the mark never would be surpassed. Since he has done 231 it is not unreasonable for some one to do 240 or 250 or 300 or more. “Really the most important detail of a high speed car is its tires, in the final analysis. For a car can be only as fast as its tires will permit. There is nothing on the car that will be sub- ject to greater stress than.the tires. I have been assured that the tire equipment on my car will be safe up to 300 miles an hour. “when speed records higher than that are set I believe some new de- parture in tire construction must be made to withstand the terrific cen- trifugal force exerted by wheels traveling at that speed. Probably the day then will come when steel tires or some material other than rubber will be used. Indications are that it will be at dent Sr"euch Burleigh county varle- | Northwest States and Counties! least, Monday before weather st A Pal , Gehu, Dakota and Soriigh ‘Ooanty Miss go Will Spend $236,461,727 on Highways Burleigh County Mixed have been sent from here to Russia for the past five or six years. Apparently the trials of these hardy types of corn in central and north central Russia have been suc- cessful, for this year the pioneer seed- house has been called upon to fur- nish a full carload of Falconer, Da- kota white flint and Burleigh County mixed flint for export from New York. ‘Washington, Mar. 15.—(?)—Plans of states and their counties to spend $250,000,000 more for highway con- struction during 1930 than was spent last year today were cited by the de- partment of agriculture as evidence of cooperation with President Hoover in his request for enlarged construc- sett aaah to relieve unemploy- ment.

The expenditures planned on im- provement of state and local roads were given by sections as follows: » New Yor::, New Jersey, and Penn- sylvania—$374,835,310; Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Michigan and Wisconsin, $303,696,000; Minnesota, Iowa, Mis- souril, North Dakota South Dakota, Nebraska, and Kansas, $236,461,727; Delaware, Maryland, Virginia, West Jennie C.

The large crack in the wall is typical of the walls generally throughout the building. Many of these are not mere plaster cracks. They extend through the brick walls. Everybody Says Burleigh County Needs a New Court House ~ The pictures shown here tell some of the story but they actually flatter the & present building. They show only to a small extent the crowded quar- ters, the dingy atmosphere, the cracked walls and most important of all, your un- protected records. They, don’t show how the rain comes through the ceilings in summer and how the wind whistles through the cracks in winter. They don’t show how the floors have rotted and warped, how the walls have crumbled and cracked, and how one of the main arches has broken and sagged. They don’t show that there is only one cell for women in the jail, where as many as eight have been confined at onetime. They don’t show that a fire would bring about confusion in titles, judg- ments and probate records and would cost you twice as much as a new court- We couldn’t tell you all that is wrong with your courthouse if we talked as fast as Floyd Gibbons from now to election day. You Know You Need a New One. Go and look at the present tumbledown building and see how badly you need it. You will then go to the polls at the Elec- tion on the Bond Issue next Tuesday, March 18th and Vote “YES” Twice. Bring your friends with you and you will get your new build- _ing.
