Mr. Powell in a reply to the farm board chairman’s com- munication expressed regret that Mr. Legge had been misquoted.

This statement shows that in a pound of bread the return to the farm for the wheat was only 1.14 cents. The point I was trying to make clear was that afluctuation of 25 or 50 cents a bushel in wheat after all made a very slight difference in the cost of a loaf of bread.” Bromley and Gatty Prepare Sea Flight Kasmuigaura, Japan, Aug. 29.—(P) —Shifting air currents, promising a tail-wind for the first phase of the non-stop transpacific flight planned by.

D., Aug. 29.—(4)—Bes, lief that Rudolph Bickert, 60, with 4 | long criminal record, feigned insanity to escape prosecution on a burglary charge so that he’ could be committed to the state hospital at Jamestown, has prompted Sheriff J. C. Miler of Bottineau to recommend that Bickert be returned to be charged as a habit« ual criminal. Bickert was arrested by Sheriff Miller in June on a charge of burglar« izing a house near Omemee, ‘ A few days after being put in jail Bickert began to act peculiarly. He attempted to gouge holes in the jail wall, explaining that he was seeking a gang of counterfeiters concealed therein. Other unusual actions and remarks by Bickert led to the sheriff signing an insantiy complaint against him and the county insanity board ordered his committment to the state hospital. Fingerprints of Bickert were sent by Sheriff Miller to the United States bureau of identification at Washing- ton and from there it was reported that the inmate had served prison sentences in Kentucky, Missouri, Okla- homa and Indiana and also has been .in three different insane asylums. Bickert’s past record has caused Sheriff Miller to doubt that he is in- sane, and he is' urging prosecution under the habitual criminal law of the state. Commencement Held At Minot College Minot, N.
