Politicians recognize that it is load- ed with dynamite and fraught with Peril for those in the seats of power, but they say the issue cannot be evad- ‘and must be met squarely and fair- y. Much of the interest, of course, comes from the fact that this is the home of O. B. Burtness, congressman from the first district and one of the high chieftains of the I. V. A. Burtness’ personal views are not on record—at least publicly—but he has talked with his friends and his inter- ests will be well cared for despite the fact that he now is attending the session of congress in Washington. ‘The reason why Burtness has re- frained from public comment is his desire to avoid “embarrassing” Gov- ernor George F.

CITY'S MINISTERS SUPPORT MOVE FOR CHRISTMAS CHEER All Endorse ‘Open Your Heart’ Campaign Launched by Vet- erans, Says Rev. Jackson Bismarck ministers today were making splendid response to the ap- peal of the American Legion that. they join with the veterans’ body and other organizations in a city- wide movement for the distribution of Christmas cheer, Rev. Ellis L. Jackson, head of the Legioe’s minis. terial committee said today. zi At the same time Legionnaires started a Christmas fund to be used as necessary to finance relief for those who face a cheerless Christ- mas. “The idea is not for anyone to ‘give ’till it hurts’ but for everyone to give what he can,” said Milton Rue, general chairman of the Legion “Open Your Heart” campaign. “We heard enough about that ‘give ‘till it hurts’ business during the war and we are confident that almost everyone can give something ‘without hurting himself in the slight- est. It is the small contributions of the many which, united under the Legion plans will take care of the needs of everyone in Bismarck and Burleigh county. Nearly everyone can spare a little and we ask only that those who wish to do so give what they can. “We expect to get our Christmas headquarters on Main avenue opened by Sunday or Monday. Then we will ask for contributions of food, clothing and other materials. This (Continued cn page seven) Davis Reelected Head of Local A. C. F. M.

Charging errors at law and that the evidence did not justify the verdict returned by the McLean county jurors, Potter had asked for a new trial of the case. A motion for a new trial was denied by the district court and today’s action by the supreme court leaves Potter no further opportunity to appeal the case. At the first trial, held in Burleigh county in December, 1928, the jury disagreed. The state then moved for a change of venue to McLean county. Following his conviction, Potter was sentenced to a life term in the state penitentiary. The case was one of the most dramatic in the recent a1 of Burleigh county. Undisputed evidence taken at the trial showed that Webb and Potter together with several others were at the latter’s home, preparing to go hunting, on the night of the fatal, shooting. It was shown that some liquor was drunk and that the men abandoned their intention of making the trip.
