THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE. TUESDAY, OCTOBER 21, 1980 POSTAL DEPARTMENT SEEKS DEFICIT CUT Spent $98,216,000 More Than Revenue Received Last Year, Official Says Chicago, Oct. 21—(4)—Reduction of the postal deficit without impair- ment of service of facilities is the aim of the department, Third Assistant Postmaster General Frederic A. Til- ton, said in an address prepared for delivery today at the Inland Daily Press association’s convention. For the fiscal year ended June 30, last, the excess of expenditures over revenues amounted to $98,216,000 but, according to Tilton, included large; payments for non-postal services. He | cited the appeal for authorization for separate classification of such ex- penditures, the advocacy of an in- crease in first class mail rates to 2'% | cents per ounce or fractional exc; as well as efficiency surveys tor the largest post offices as showing the department's attitude toward lowering of the deficit. Rates, he said. could not be based upon direct apportionment of costs without bringing about serious re- ductions in service and revenue. ‘The speaker expressed a hope that the “editorial comments appearing in your papers will be consistent with the position of the business manage- ment of your papers when they sp- pear before the department and com- mittees of congress” regarding pro- mended newspaper men for peration in the department's n to have advertising “read- | clearly marked in the papers of the country.

Gigantic Cameras Used by Science to > | Record Sun Eclipse ————————¢ ° Niuagou Island, Oct. 21.—(Wednes- day)—(7)—A battery of gigantic cameras and scores of other scientific instruments were brought into action here today as observers from the United States and New Zealand sought to record the secrets of the sun during an eclipse. Hopes for a clear sky at the mo- ment of obscuration were uppermost in the scientific minds. Preliminary forecasts indicated a fair chance for clear weather. The two scientific expeditions here have worked for months preparing to chronicle the phenomenon, which will last but 93 seconds. A 65-foot and a 63-foot camera were especially constructed and erect- ed here with the aid of Commander C. H. J. Keppler, head of the United States naval observatory expedition. Clear, weather would permit the scientists to check up on many scientific theories and to study the .| structure of the sun’s corona and chromosphere. INDIFFERENCE’ IS CHARGED TO TAXES Farm Bureau Head Says Those Who Do Not Pay Not Inter- ested in Election Kansas City, Oct. 21.—()—Prop- erty tax was charged with being part- ly responsible for “indifference to good government,” in an address by Sam H. Thompson, president of the American Farm Bureau federation, prepared for delivery before the con- ference here of the American Tax as- sociation. “Dependence on the general prop- majority of citizens from direct taxa- tion. It is inevitable that citizens of any community who pay no direct taxes should be careless of the qual- ity of their public officials,” he said. The income tax, based on the prin- ciple of “ability to pay” the speaker declared, is the only equitable form of taxation. Criticism of the American Bankers’ association for what he termed “its ownership of committees on banking in both houses of congress,” was made by Gov. Clyde M. Reed of Kan- sas at the opening session last night. “The federal government,” he de- clared, “should take its hands off Na- tional bank taxation in the states.” Wisconsin Restaurant Man Dies of Wounds Viroqua, Wis., Oct. 21—(AP)— Clarence Sutherland, restaurant pro- prietor shot by a masked bandit while in his cabin in the black bot- ton region south of here Sunday, died late Monday.

Regard to Settlements in Palestine London, Oct. 21—(P)—Zionist Jewry the world over today voiced protests at conditions in the new statement of British policy in Palestine which they consider will impede their pur- pose of making the Holy Land a na- tional home for Jews. Dr. Chaim Weizmann, resigning his positions of president of the World Zionist organization and the Jewish agency to emphasize his opposition to the policy, intimated that because of its inauguration it might be neces- sary to transfer the seat of Zionist activity from London to the United States.

Some of my relatives want to move in immediately.” “Don’t let me discourage you,” said Peterson. “But the furnishings are simple, a bed, a couple of chairs, free linen and that lets us out.” “Just so the heat is good; and how is the wall paper, please?” “Bars—on three sides is the pattern,” said the operator. “What's that? Isn’t this the rent- ing‘ office?” “Police station, madame,” said Peterson, but the welcome’s hearty just the same.” Bang went the receiver on the oth- er end of the line. KEYSTONE VICTORY WANTED BY HOOVER The American Jewish congress, which originally supported the man- date from the League of Nations {under which Great Britain assumed | rule over Palestine, saw in yesterday's report of Sir John Hope Simpson on Palestine immigration, land settle- ment and development a serious blow to the establishment of a national home for the Jewish people. In a resolution it termed the gov- ernment’s statement, made public in London with the report, a “repudi- jation of the solemn pledge given by the British government to the Jewish people.” Yesterday's British statement of policy said further unrestricted Jew- ish immigration into Palestine was to be “strongly depreciated,” and as- serted the Arab population there erty tax almost wholly exempt the] blamed the economic depression under | Vi which it is laboring upon an excessive influx of Jews. The congress elected Rabbi Stephen S. Wise of New York, its honorary president, and Bernard S. Deutsch of New York, President. Costs Church More To Obtain Recruits Milwaukee, Wis.

Fisher Girls Chaff | With Britain’s Prince a many types in many lands but he got a new thrill today when he re- ceived an enthusiastic reception, mix- ed with a little good-natured chaffing, from the famed scottish fisher girls who come to Yarmouth each year during the herring season. Despite his many public appear- ances, the prince remains delightful- ly bashful. He took his courage in hand on this occasion, however, and invaded the stronghold of the fisher girls who, picturesquely garbed in oil- slush boots, their heads cov- ered with gay handkerchiefs, were cleaning and packing the silvery fish. These girls drive the average man to cover quickly with their wit, but they gave the prince a rousing cheer and treated him so gently that he seemed to get as much fun out of the encounter as they did.

Davis, one of his cabinet officers, that he stands for and desires the election of the whole Republican ticket in Pennsyl- ania,” Pinchot said in his address, “and no one who has the slightest knowledge of national affairs can doubt that the election of the whole Republican ticekt in Pennsylvania is most necessary,” Pinchot said. Pinchot's declaration was in direct conflict with that made yesterday at Uniontown by Davis, United States senatorial nominee. Davis said: “The president has not endorsed any candidate and he cannot even endorse men and I am @ member of his cabinet. The late President Wil- son got himself in @ devil of a fix in this respect several years ago.” “No explanation or elaboration on the Davis and Pinchot statements re- garding Hoover’s purported expres- sion of views was forthcoming from party leaders.

BELCHING NORRIS ASKS NEW COMMITTEE PROBE Nebraska Senator Wants Furth- er Inquiry Into Stebbins Statement Lincoln, Neb., Oct. 21—(#)—Sen- ator George W. Norris today request- ed Senator Gerald P. Nye, chairman of the senatorial campaign funds in- vestigation committee, to return to Nebraska to inquire into the state- ment made last Saturday by W. M. Stebbins, state treasurer, that he do- nated a $500 bond to the campaign fund of George W. Norris, the Broken Bow grocer, and that he gave $350 in cash to a campaign to defeat the Ne- braska senator. Stebbins was the senator's principal opponent in his campaign for the Re- publican senatorial nomination in the August primary. Norris won -the nomination by a wide margin. ‘O- cer Norris’ filing as a candidate for nomination ruled illegal by a state supreme Court justice becatise of its belated filing. Senator Norris’ request, as outlined to Senator Nye, was based on that provision of the senatorial resolutian permitting “every candidate the right to make a written demand on the committee for investigation and to submit to the committee any evi- dence such candidate may have of irregularities in a senatoral contest.” The request from Senator Norris specifically described the Stebbins statement as warranting further in- quiry “in view of the sworn affidavit (campaign expense account) of Mr. Stebbins purporting to give a true and accurate account of his expendi- tures in this campaign. This confes- sion of Mr. Stebbins is a flat contra- diction of this evidence already taken by yourself and Senator Dale.” “I am enclosing herewith,” Sen- ator Norris continued, “a copy of a recent statement of the Honorable ‘W. M. Stebbins in which he makes certain confessions in regard to con- tributions made and other acts re- lating to the candidacy of George W. Norris of Broken Bow, in the primary contest in this state. “I desire also to call your attention to numerous published statements and speeches of Mr. Stebbins given out and made during the campaign, that likewise flatly con- tradict the statements made in his recent confession. . . . “Tt seems to me that Mr. Stebbins’ recent statement warrants me in asking that the committee, or some sub-committee thereof, return to Ne- braske and make a further investiga- tion.” More Arrests Made In Rumanian Plot Bucharest, Rumania, Oct. 21.—(P)— Authorities have arrested the police chief of the state intelligence depart- ment and a colonel in the active army force in connection with disclosures regarding espionage in the interests of Russia.
