Their letter asked wheth- er “you intend to recommend that the home manufacture of beer be made legal or the home manufacture of wine be made illegal.” “I have no comment to make upon the law.” Woodcock replied, “My. duty being to enforce it as congress enacts it. I have no intention of reeenmecaine to congress any change in the law in any respect.” Says N. D. Elevators Have Plenty of Room Grand Forks, April 13.—(#)—County elevators of North Dakota are in a favorable situation to handle the 1931 grain crop, P. A. Lee, secretary of the North Dakota Grain Dealers associa- tion, said Saturday, but the situation, at the terminals may cause concern. Stocks of country elevators are at the lowest point in five years, Mr. Lee said, because of heavy inspired ‘vy the information that the stabiliza- tion corporation will cease operations in June. Added impetus to grain sales was caused by the necessity of ready cash for taxes, Grain supplies in the eleva- tors were estimated at 11,000.00; bushels as compared with an average carry-over of 20,000,090 bushels, Expansion of Music Reported in State Grand Forks, N.

PUBLIC WILL HEAR CARUSO’S DAUGHTER OVER AIR APRIL 16 Will Make Child Health Speech; Resemblance to Her Father= Is Startling New York, April 13—(?)—Eleven- year-old Gloria Caruso, so like her famous father the resemblance is startling, will be heard in public April 16 for the first time. Gloria is going to make a speech— a very brief speech—over the radio in behalf of the May Day program of the American Child Health associa- trent of which President Hoover is the head. Not only will it be Gloria's first Public appearance, it will be her last for some time to come. Gloria is living as simple and secluded-a childhood as possible for the daughter of Enrico Caruso. ‘This is not easy. For Gloria’s re- semblance to her father is more than @ superficial thing. Experts who were friends of Caruso say his daugh- ter has a throat exactly like his—the same “sounding box”—and that al- ready she has a voice of extraordin- | team ary range and great promise. Going To Sorrento Instead, however, she and her mother are going to Sorrento, Italy, where her father died 10 years ago next August. It will be Gloria's first visit to Sorrento since that time. “I have tried to keep that summer in Sorrento alive in Gloria’s mind— not the end, but the first part, that was so beautiful and so happy,” her mother said Saturday. “She was only a year and a half old then, but she almost thinks she can remember walking in the garden with her fath- er. ‘The training of Gloria’s voice will not begin until she is 16, because her father believed that no singer should start studying voice until that age. But, although her mother is not anxious for her to become an opera singer and rather hopes she won't, she is being given the ground work— languages and the piano. Caruso be- Meved that every child should start Piano lessons at the age of five. Gloria did. Gloria likes to talk about her fath- er. She is almost fiercely proud of my heard all around the world, too?

D., April i 13.—(?)—An of- ficial canvas of the votes cast in the Minot city election of last Tuesday reveals no change from the unofficial tabulation showing H. E. Buck to have been elected city commissioner by a margin of seven votes over V. A. Corbett, incumbent. However, the election of Buck has not been officially declared, becduse of the fact a few election boards had failed to entirely complete the filling to complete the returns, Mr. Corbett has made no announce- ‘ment as to whether he intends to in- stitute an election contest, Kittenball League To Organize Tuesday Representatives of of each kittenball tentatively in the Bis- August will feature the meeting.

G. Dun and company. The statement of this bust- ness authority follows: “The opening weeks of the second quarter have not been barren of en- couraging developments in business, yet the favorable indications are qualified by the continued presence of pumerous disappointing features. “Confusion of sentiment and of opinion regarding probable movements in the early future is a natural reflec- tion of the existing irregularities and contrasting trends, while the. recent action of stock markets has not been stimulating. Recurring weakness in commodi*” prices, moreover, has not: been constructive, and has demon- strated anew that stability in this important connection is yet to be achieved. “Various basic raw materials, follow- de @ brief display of firmness, have) eased again, copper, rubber, hides, wool, and cotton’ being among the prominent.products available at lower quotations. The renewed recessions, as might be expected, have narrowed after the previous prolonged decline, but more steadiness in prices is con- sidered essential to vigorous trade recovery. “The moderate gains in commercial activity thus far this year, on the: other hand, have given promise of better conditions to come, although nothing has occurred to alter the view that revival will continue to be a tedious and fluctuating process. Res- ponse to the stronger underlying fac- tors, including the reduced inventories of most goods, develops only slowly, for the public buying power remains impaired and distributors show & prudent disinclination to purchase be- yond well-defined needs. “Even with that caution, require- ments in some channels have expand- ed sufficiently under the impetus of seasonal influences to raise the rate of manufacture, textile mills and shoe plants being specific cases in point. “Conversely, steel output has been dropping gradually during late weeks, yet from a level about 50 per cent above the low mark of the depression, PALACE THEATRE MANDAN Tonight - Tuesday. 7 & 9:15 p,m. — Prices: 15 & 40c Matinee Tues. 3 p. m.
