MANDAN NEWS HANLEY 10 APPEAL GASE OF MINOT MAN TO SUPREME COURT Appeal Follows on Heels of Re- versing of Conviction of Dillage, Co-Defendant An appeal to the U, 8. supreme court will be made in the case of Eddie Norris, Minot, following the an- nouncement of the decision Friday by the U. 8. circuit court of appeals at St. Louis, reversing the conviction of Lee Dillage, co-defendant, Lignite, N. D., J. M. Hanley of Mandan, coun- sel for Dillage, announced Saturday. Norris and Dillage were sentericed in federal court at Grand Forks last December by Judge Andrew Miller for alleged violation of the Jones act growing out of the Fargo liquor truck episode of last spring. Norris was sentenced to five years in Leavenworth and paid $5,000 fine while Dillage was sentenced to 2 1-2 years and fined $2,500. Appeal was taken to the U. 8. circuit court at Kansas City by their at- torneys. The appeal was based on the claim that there was an insufficiency of evidence to convict under the Jones ‘act, that there was no evidence to show the defendant a habitual of- fender and that there was nothing to warrant the extreme penalty. The U. 8. circuit court reversed the conviction of Dillage but affirmed the sentence of Norris. Appeal to the U. S. supreme court will be based on the theory that the cases of Norris and Dillage are identical and that if there was insufficient evidence to affirm the conviction of Dillage the U. 8. oe of appeals erred in holding Nor- C Hold Funeral Rites For Raleigh Woman Raleigh, N.

Freeberg, Mercer, was re- | elected vice president of the eighth district of the North Dakota Federa- | tion of Women’s Clubs at the close of the 17th annual session in Jamestown Friday afternoon.

Boleyn, Fargo, state publicity chairman and editor of the North Dakota Clubwoman, who was the principal speaker at the clos- ing session.

United support of clubwomen in the eighth district in backing the state magazine, “The North Dakota Club- woman,” and in raising their quota for the federation foundation fund was requested by Mrs. Cooper in her annual message. She offered the plan, favored by the state federation board, of asking each club to contribute $2 per year toward the Clubwoman, thus eliminating the necessity of soliciting advertising con- stantly from the same group of busi- ness firms, Stressing the need for the maga- zine, Mrs, Cooper said it was a source of inspiration to the smaller clubs, and frequently the only means the group has of knowing what other clubs are doing. She commented on the fine record made by the district in paying its share of the foundation’ fund and urged that those clubs which have not fulfilled their quota make plans for doing so. < In closing Mrs. Cooper urged closer Cooperation between the individual clubs and the state federation, re- minding the women of the advan- tages of organized effort. “Alone, our power is limited,” she declared, “but working through the federation our. strength and influence is boundless. It is a privilege to be members of the greatest women’s or- ganization in the world, an organiza- tion whose power is recognized by projects.” - Reports of club presidents, bills, as well as reports of the resolutions and credential committees occupied the remainder of the afternoon, with the newly elected officers presented at the close of the session. 60 ROBBERIES ARE ADMITTED BY TRIO Youths Reported by Minneapo- lis Police to Have Signed Confessions Minneapolis, April 18.—()—Three men, who started on careers of ban- jditry several weeks ago, have com- mitted more than 60 robberies since then, they admitted in signed con- fessions to police Saturday.
