Mandan’s Expenditures for Year Greater Payments on Paving and Sewer Warrants Necessitate Large Disbursements Payments for, redemption of and interest on paving and sewer war- rants made it necessary for the city of Mandan to spend $20,530.45 more than it took in during the fiscal year ending June 30, 1930, according to a financial report for the year present- ed to the city commission last eve- ning by W. H. Seitg, city auditor. Mandan’s disbursements for the 12 month period totaled $269,168.28 com- pared with receipts of $248,637.83. The’ balance on hand for the city July 1, 1929, was $52,993.75 compared with a balance of $32,463.32 on hand last July 1, the report shows. Disbursements necessitated by pav- ing and sewer warrants during the year totaled $179,444.24 while receipts brought in through paving and sewer construction (sale of warrants and taxes) totaled only $162,466.76. Pav- ‘ing disbursements totaled $153,348.52 and sewer work cost the city $26,095.62 during the period. Sale of paving warrants during the year brought the city $109,424.74 and paving taxes brought an additional $39,635.07. Sewer taxes collected totaled $13,406.95. : General tax collections brought in $44,157.50.

NO KIN OF DEAD MEN FOUND BY OFFICIALS Funeral Arrangements for Owen Tolan, 42, and Fred Wink- ler, 29, Held Up Morton county officials today had not located relatives of either of the two men who died in the county late ‘Tuesday but were continuing their efforts to do so, according to John K. Kennelly, coroner. The dead men are Owen Tolan, 42, and Fred Winkler, 29, the latter be- ing a former resident of Augusta, Wis. Both were employed recently by the Hope Engineering company, which is engaged in laying a gas pipe line in western North Dakota. Tolan died at New Salem late in the afternoon, @ victim of ‘denatured alcohol which he apparently drank of his own accord and with full know- ledge that it was poisonous. He was said to have been intoxicated almost constantly for 10 days before his de- mise. Winkler, champion cheese maker of the U. 8. in 1927, died of a com- Plication of diseases in the Mandan Deaconess hospital, where he had been for 10 days. Certificates in the suitcase of Wink- ler at a Mandan hotel showed that heshad won ‘irst cheese making honors in the National Dairy Exposi- tion in Memphis, Tenn., in 1927, and that he was a food inspector in Au- guste, Wis., district. Coroner Kennelly failed in an effort yesterday to identify Tolan through the federal war department, believ- ing the dead man may have been an ex-service man, but fingerprints were | + being sent to Washington today. No funeral arrangements have been made for either Tolan or Winkler, the coroner said this morning. MANDAN ‘ALL QUIET Than Receipts Rossum, Carson; William Allen, Lark; H. D.

Asks Probe by Nye In ColoradoPrimary (®)—Expressing belief there is foun- dation fer charges of efforts to pur- chase the Republican senatorial noin- ination in Colorado,’ C. C. Hamlin, Republican national committeeman, has asked an immediate investiga- tion into campaign expenditures in a message to Senator Gerald P. Nye. Hamlin urged Senator Nye and the senate campaign investigating com- mittee to complete its work in Colo- rado and make the findings public before the primary election, Sert. 9. “We are entitled to have the coun- try know our state is not for sale,” Hamlin wired. “As Republican ra- tional committeeman from Colorado and as publisher of two daily papers in this city I most earnestly urge thet your ittee proceed immediately with its investigation to the end that he electorate may vote with full knowledge of the facts.” Girl Communists Freed from Prison Rochester, N. ¥., Aug. 28—(P)—Atter serving nine days of a three-months sentence for desecrating the American Colorado Springs, Colo., Aug. 28— we THE BISMARCK T ILC. WILL TAKE UP RAILWAY VALUATION AND RATE QUESTION Old Controversy Over Actual Physical Worth to Be | Threshed Out Again Washington, Aug. 28.—()}—The old Controversies over railroad valuations, | rate bases, and recapture by the gov- | ernment of earnings above six per | cent will come up ugain early in the | next session of congress befure the senate interstate commerce committee. | The office of Senator Couzens of | the committee, made known tocay that hearings would begin early on a bill by Senator Howell, Republican, | Nebraska, to alter the transportaiion | act in provisions covering several is- sues, Sounding opinion, Senator Couzers has written railroad executives, ship-- pers and other interested partics. in- viting them to comment. Several have responded with demands for “a full hearing.” The interstate commerce commis- sion’s reaction to the Howell proposal went along with Couzens’ inquiry. in the ferm of a 64-page document sug- gesting an alternative plan sxould revision be decided upon. The com- mission took occasion to point out in- adequacies in the transportation act. Revives O'Fallon Case While responses to the yuery have not been made public, it was learned that opposition was freely expressed. Some opponents of the measure hold it goes to the vitals of the whole question of railroad regulation—indi- cating tha; extended discussion, echo- ing the famous St. Louis O'Fallon de- cision by the supreme court, will mark the committee hearing. The Howell bill would provide for group rate-making by the interstate commerce commission. It wou'd dis- tinguish between the rate base and valuation of the railroads for other purposes, and would specifically di- rect the commission to compute group rate bases on aggregate values ascer- tained by the methods used in ar- riving at the St. Louis and O'Fallon valuation. ‘The O'Fallon finding by the com- mission was reversed by the supreme | court. Opponents of the Howell bill insist the supreme court decision was based upon constitutional rights of the roads, while proponents conte it was based upon the commission's failure to follow statutory directions. The controversy involves the question of valuations on the basis of repro- duction costs, or on the basis of orig- inal costs. The interstate commerce commis- sion's report was accompanied by a separate dissenting statement on be- half of Commissioner Woodlock de- claring the object of the Howeil bill “Is to deprive the railroads of the enhancement of the value of a large part of their properties since 1914.” HOLD RITES FOR PIONEER Neche, N.

AUGUST 28, 1980 Maurek Plans Piscatorial Inquiry To Determine Habits of N. D. Perch’ Perch which pursue their cannibal- istic ways in North Dakota's lakes, ponds and streams should beware. They are about to be investigated. Burnie Maurek,. guardian of the destinies of the state's new fish and game department, has decreed that this speciés of game fish shall take up residence in a metaphorical glass | house while the experts in fish cul- jture pry into their most. intimate habits, And like all worthy investigations, this one has a reason. The game and fish department wants to know why the fish propagate well in some lakes and ponds and fail to reproduce their kind in others, Also, if the reason is found, the department would like to know how to cure the condition. In Spiritwood and some other lakes, Maurek said, the fish propagate well. In the lake at Crystal Springs and most of the smaller ponds and reser- voirs, particularly those created by artificial means, perch transported Young Wild Ducks Are Dying from Lack of Water Near McClusky McClusky, N.
