THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE, THURSDAY, MAY 8, 1930 6 ‘TE DETECTOR’ USE INGHICAGO SLAYING DENIED BY OFFICERS Two Sailors Alleged to Have Confessed Murder After Use of Truth Machine Chicago, May 8—(P)—Officers ati the Great Lakes naval training sta- tion today admitted two sailors are being held there for Chicago authori- ties following a visit of Coroncr Her- man N. Bundesen, who is investigat- ing the slaying of M. A. Douglas, of Milan, Michigan. Douglas was found strangled in a hotel room Monday after he had registered with two sail- ors. Coroner Bundesen yesterday checked over the activities of 168 sailors who! were on leave the day of the slaying. Names of the two men held were not divulged because of naval regula- tions. A report that the two sailors confessed after submitting them- Selves, along with the rest of the men ‘on leave, to a “lie detector” was de- nied by both Bundesen and Great Lakes officers. Douglas came from Detroit and reg- istered at a West Madison street hotel with two sailors the night before the murder. The seamen had disappeared when Douglas’ body was found. Many sailors at the training station submitted to the “lie detector” test last night, Keeler said. In the case of two of them, accord- ing to Keeler, the “lie detector” showed an irregular line on the graph when they denied knowledge of the crime. An irregular line indicates the person under examination is not telling the truth. Further question- ing brought confessions, Keeler said. . The Herald and Examiner learned that Admiral Walter 8. Crosley, com- mandant at the training station, had sent telegrams to parents of the two sailors, advising them their sons were in serious trouble, and summoning them at once. To Obtain 60 Pullets Set Five Times That Many Eggs to.Hatch Poultry raisers who want pullets for next year’s egg production should remember that about five eggs will have to be set for every good pullet produced, says W. C. Tully, extension poultryman of the Agricultura) col- Jege. Working on the basis that 60 per cent of the flock should be pullets and 40 per cent one-year-old hens, a laying flock of 100 hens will require 60 pullets ready by October 1. To se- cure these 60 good pullets, 3000 eggs should be set this spring, and if the eggs come from well-bred and prop- erly-fed birds and are correctly in- cubated, a hatch of 180 chicks would be obtained. About 144 of the 180 chicks will probably mature. One-half of the 144 mature birds will be males, leav- ing 72 mature pullets. At least 12 of the 72 pullets should be culled, which leaves 60 good mature pullets to put into winter laying quarters. If the chicks are obtained from a hatchery, between 180 ad 200 will be needed to insure 60 superior pullets. In buying chicks from a hatchery, it will pay the poultry raiser to be sure that he is getting good ones. Good pullets do not result from poor qual- ity chicks. {PEOPLE'S FORUM | es Underwood, N. D., May 8. Editor, Tribune: In fairness to all concerned I am asking you to give space in the Forum to some matters pertaining to the present prohibition poll conduct- ed by the Literary Digest, since the ‘Tribune has been giving these Digest figures as they came out in the Di- gest's weekly issues. Considerable criticism has been evoked, not at the poll, but at the method of conducting it. Dr. Daniel Poling, editor of the Christian Her- ald of New York, was satisfied that the women were not receiving their proportionate share of ballots in this poll, and so he tested the matter out by sending the following telegram to quite a number of pastors of the larg- est congregations in the various cities: “Facts received indicate Lit- erary Digest ballots sent almost ex- clusively to men. If generally true this seriously affects the validity of returns. To aid check-up could you arrange for a poll in your congrega- tion tomorrow which would indicate first: total number in audience; sec- ond, number of men who received ballots; third. number of women who received ballots. Wire result to Christian Herald, New York City.” In 18 different churches which con- ducted this poll Dr. Poling’s state- ment was supported. Here are some of the returns: Dr. E. Z. Conrad of Boston reported that in an audience of 1,000 only 30 men and 12 women received ballots, and that at least 800 dry voters had been passed over. Dr. A. Ray Petty of Kansas City wired that 428 men out of 1,553 had re- ceived ballots, and 101 women out of 1,128. Dr. M. A. Mathews of Seattle reported that out of his large audi- ence of 2,000 only 75 men and 15 women had received ballots. We tested this matter out last Sun- day in two churches of which we are the minister with the following re- sults: Of 29 men voters present only 10 received ballots: and of 29 women voters present only four received bal- lots. In other words, of the male voters approximately 34 per cent re- ceived ballots, and the remaining 65 per cent recelved none. Of the fe- male voters approximately 13 per cent received ballots, and the remaining 86 per cent received none. Of the total voters approximately 24 per cent received ballots, and the remaining "15 per cent received none. Now with Very rare exception, if any at all, all these voters would have voted for the 18th amendment, so that more than ‘three-fourths of these voters had no] _ ‘opportunity accorded them in this matter. Clearly the method of ob- taining this Digest poll is either Wrong or unfair, and it is this to-be- remembered fact that must be taken into full consideration in reading the weekly Digest figures in order to meke a clear allowance for the large Dumber of votes recorded in favor of the repeal of the 18th amendment. , Let all the voters have an impartial 4 j@ppointed United States minister to !terpretative dancing contest will be New U.S. Env rere eelpeentasigepnariemns Ralph Harman Booth, Detroit news-| Paper publisher, who was recently Denmark, is shown here leaving the white house just before safliing for his} Post.

Many people have become despon- dent because they have been led to believe that there is no remedy that will reduce swallen veins and bunches. If you will get a two-ounce orig- inal bottle of Moone's Emerald Oil (full strength) at any first-class drug store and apply it night and morning as directed you will quickly notice an improvement which will continue un- til the veins and bunches are reduced to normal. i} Moone’s Emerald Oil is a harmless, yet most powerful germicide and two ounces last a very long time. Indeed, so powerful is Emerald Oil that old chronic sores and ulcers are often entirely healed and anyone who is disappointed with its use can have their money refunded. Service Drug Store sells lots of it.—Adv. The highest code of ethics governs our service. We perform our task with dignity efficiency, under- standing and eco- nomy.

Not content with improving their own | appearances, the nine girls in the club have taken over ~ plot of ground in the heart of the city and are mak- ing it into a beauty spot by planting | flowers and shrubs. The girls were given the use of the ground with the understanding that | they convert it from an eyesore into a beauty spot. How well they have ac- complished this is evident to all f miliar with the small bit of ground. It is now spic and span and the pride of the town. McLean county has 11 4-H clothing clubs in which 109 girls are enrolled this year. The Garrison club is in the second year of its work and each of its members is planning on com- pleting a spring and summer clothing outfit by June 1. In all of its meet- ings since the club was organized, only two absences have been recorded. Miss Katherine Bale, Garrison, is local leader. ' AT THE MOVIES | +—________--- — CAPITOL THEATRE Off with the old and on with the new briefly describes the mood of Radio Pictures’ “Second Wife,” which opens today at the Capitol Theatre. ‘When Lila Lee comes into the pic- ture in the title role she finds Conrad Nagel, her newly acquired husband, too comfortably ensconced in a dreary home surrounded by red plush furni- ture, chairs of ancient design, figured carpets, war posters and a life-sized portrait of a dead wife staring down from a prominent position above the mantel-piece. “Second Wife” decides there are too many reminders of a calm and domestic peace that was—so she changes everything. The old homestead is abandoned for an ultra-smart apartment, fur- nished in latest modernistic style. Persian rugs replace the carpets; etchings and “old masters” supplant the war poster and highly colored Portrait. Radio Pictures spared no expense in creating a startling con- trast. In the cast are Mary Carr, Hugh Huntley and Freddie Burke Fred- erick. The latter is the stepchild of the story. PARAMOUNT THEATRE Organ music always will be prom- inent and an important factor in the world of arts. ‘This was the opinion of Miss Hilde- garde Usselman, who arrived in Bis- marck today to be guest organist at the Bismarck Paramount theatre to- morrow and Saturday. Miss Ussel- man’s return to Bismarck is much like a homecoming as she is a former Bis- marck and Mandan resident. “I do not believe that the organ ever will die,” Miss Usselman said to- day. “Radio stations all over the country are featuring the organ more and more because of the increasing requests for that type of music. The organ provides more latitude for in- terpretations obtainable on no other one or set of instruments. “I am very happy to be in Bismarck again and am looking forward to Greeting many of my old friends.” Miss Usselman comes to Bismarck Announcement for Stomach Sufferers Stomach sufferers in Bismarck and vicinity will be glad to learn that Hall's’ Drug store, Bismarck, North Dakota, has been appointed exclusive distributor in Burleigh and Morton counties for Pfunder's Tablets, which have gained an enviable reputation throughout the United States in the relle€ of stomach disorders.
