The first calls for Suspension of conditional and uncon- ditional payments alike, the second allows only for a moratorium of the conditional, As one of the biggest sufferers in the war, France became ameng the largest beneficiaries through re- construction payments, which are classed as unconditional. The loss of these, it was reported, would be felt keenly. President Hoover, however, in his announcement of the plan, included “all payments on intergovernmental debts owing the important creditor Powers” and it was said unequivo- cally yesterday that he meant both conditional and unconditional oblu- gations. Hoover Polling Congress President Hoover is making a com- Plete canvass of all members of the senate and house to ascertain their attitude toward his proposed war debt-reparations holiday. Tt was said at the white house ‘Tuesday that Hoover had talked to all members of the house and senate in Washington and had consulted with many of them by telephone. Those he could not reach by those methods he has telegraphed or cabl- ed. The white house did not indicate how complete the poll was up to date, ‘but it was said that over 50 per cent of the two memberships had replied. Among those the president consult- ed personally was Senator Harrison, Democrat, of Mississippi, who arriv- ed in the capital today. After his conference with the chief executive the Mississippi Democrat refused to comment. French Notified First High authorities at the state de- partment said France was the first nation notified when President Hoo- ver decided to act. This informant said there had been no preliminary discussion of the plan with any other nation, but that the president had been following the sit- uation in Germany with keen solici- tude and acted when the financial crisis indicated that unless he did so}, at once disaster was imminent. It was added France was notified last Friday. Meanwhile, President Hoover laid aside all other matters to devote his entire attention to the proposal and watched closely the reaction of the world to his suggestion. Secretary Stimson remained away from the cabinet meeting this morn- ing and worked at his home on a statement he is to give the country tonight over the radio, outlining the sist behind President Hoover's ac- jon. The secretary will make a 15-min- ute talk over both the National and the Columbia networks, beginning at 10 o'clock, eastern standard time. Wants Wheat Sold A suggestion that the United States dispose of its surplus wheat by sell- ing it to debtor countries in return for suspending interest payments on the war debts was made to President Hoover by Representative Andresen, Republican, Minnesota. In an open letter to the president, Andresen proposed the farm board sell wheat now held by its agencies to Germany, France, England and Italy at the market price and that interest payments due from ° these countries during the next fiscal year be suspended for 10-years. Commending the president's plan for suspending payment on all inter- governmental debts for one year, the Minnesota representative said the plan should be carried a step further in order to give relief to the American farmer. GERMAN PRESS SEES CAUSE FOR HOPEFULNESS Berlin, June 23.—(#)—The consen- Sus of the German Press Tuesday was that, while President Hoover's mora- torium proposal would alleviate the crisis, the ultimate salvation of the world léy in a more radical step than mere postponement of inter-govern- ment war debts. Democratic newspapers expressed confidence the Hoover plan was only preliminary to more far-reaching ones in the future. “The postpone- ment of payments during the most precarious of all the tribute years can only mean the beginning,” said the Boersen Courier. “New years of rest must follow the first—and lead to final revision.” The nationalist newspapers grudg- ingly admitting the benefit of the suspension, contended it means a per- iod for Germany to catch her breath 80 she will be in better condition to bear her burdens. later on. “They don’t want to kill the goose that’s laying the golden eggs,” de- clared the local Anzeiger. Der Tag went so far as to say it was time for the ministry to resign. Hjalmar Schacht, former president of the Reichsbank and a consistent critic of the Bruening government, said in the extreme nationalist or- “Chancellor Bruening now has a chance to change his policy of watchful waiting to ac- tivity.” Lauding the plan, he said: “It’s another testimonial of the strong feeling of responsibility America feels in public affairs.” The Tageblatt expressed trepi- dation over Hoover's statement that reparations and inter-allied debts were two different matters but. hop- ed the postponement plan would ini- tiate a thorough change in both, FRENCH SURPRISED BY HOOVER MOVE Paris, June 23.—()—Not before to- morrow will France write her reply to President Hoover's proposal for a one-year postponement of inter-allied debt and reparation payments. ‘The French cabinet was unable to- day to reach a decision about the na- ture of the text, to be drafted at a special cabinet meeting tomorrow.

Emil Hanson, living northwest of Crosby, the second prospective juror to be examined, said he remembered hearing about the lynching of Charles and also read about it in the newspa- pers, Seeks To Evade Duty Charles C. Johnson, living near Grenora, said that he did not wish to sit as juror on the case. Ina lengthy examination, he related that! he “would not like to vote a man guilty of murder.” He was not chal- lenged for cause and remained in the jury box when a noon recess was tak- en. Close to 100 spectators were in the court room when the selection of a jury got under way, the preliminary procedure of arraignment and enter- ing of a plea of not guilty having been disposed of late Monday. Bannon, dressed in new clothes, stood before the court while the in- formation charging him with first- | degree murder was read. In a low voice, hardly audible to the few spectators, Bannon answered “not guilty.” The charge specifically | accuses him of slaying Albert E. Hav- n. In the first legal skirmism prelim- inary to the trial, the defense, repre- sented by Attorney W. A. Jacobsen of Watford City and State's Attorney E. J. Mcliraith of Crosby, was victori-| ous. States Attorney Taylor asked per- mission of the court to add the names of four witnesses to those already listed upon the information, which would make a total of 53 subpoenaed by the prosecution. Voicing no ob- jection except as to the name of Mrs. Margaret Armstrong of Williston, At- torney MclIlraith, who is acting in the unusual situation of representing a defendant in a criminal action in the county in which he is the prosecu- tor, said the defense lacked time in which to investigate the witness. The objection was sustained by Judge Lowe after learning from Taylor that he first knew about two weeks ago that Mrs. Armstrong might be a witness. After the objection was sustained, Taylor said he did not re- gard the woman's testimony as being of any great importance. No Sentiment Evident In striking contrast to the precau- 6,000,000 germs tions taken to protect Bannon when he was taken into McKenzie county for a preliminary hearing two months ago, there was little or no evidence today that authorities considered it likely that harm would befall the de- fendant in Divide county. However, two guards are to be post- ed in the jail here each night while Bannon is confined here, Sheriff Sig- vert Thompson of McKenzie county said. When Bannon was taken into ; McKenzie county fcr his preliminary hearing a detachment of North Dako- ta national guardsmen accompanied the peace officers to thwart any at- tempt that might be made to lynch him, but no open malice against him was exhibited by the public. Bannon was brought to Crosby late Sunday from Minot, where he has been held in jail for safekeeping since the lynching of his con. Craven Helps Taylor In the prosecution of the case, Tay- lor is to he assisted by Thomas Crav- en, Williston, acting as special: assist- ant attorney general. Taylor said {he expects a fujl week, at least, for the introduction of the state's testi- mony, all of which is of a circum- stantial nature. Judge Lowe said he would not be surprised if the case lasted close to two weeks. In anticipation that selection of a jury may be completed Tuesday, Tay- lor has advised the first six of his witnesses to be on hand for the open- ing of court Wednesday. Expecting that the courtroom will not be large enough to hold the crowds of spectators, Judge Lowe in- stituted a system of passes for those having business therein, and instruct- ed the bailiffs to lock the doors when the room is full each day. ASK TARIFR BODY TO HOLD HEARING ON FLAX IMPOST Murphy and Milloy Want Study Made of Growing Conditions in Northwest Fargo, N. D., June 23.—(P)—A re- quest for a hearing in North Dakota by the United States tariff commis- sion in connection with its investiga- tion on the tariff on flax seed and linseed oil has been made to Henry P. Fletcher, chairman of the commis- sion, by Frederick E. Murphy, pub- lisher of the Minneapolis Tribune, and James S. Milloy, Fargo, secretary of the Greater North Dakota asso- ciation. The investigation is being conduct- ed by the commission in response to @ request from Argentina. Hearings are to be held after studies are made by representatives of the commission in Argentina. It was pointed out to Fletcher by the spokesmen for northwest inter- ests that 95 per cent of the flax pro- duced in the United States is pro- duced in Minnesota, the Dakotas and Montana, and that a North Dakota hearing would convenience many northwest interests anxious to join in the defense of present tariff schedules on flax seed and linseed oil. Fletcher PAIN after eating WHAT many call “indigestion” is very often nothing but excess acid in the stomach. The stomach nerves have been over-stimulated, and food sours. The corrective is an alkali, which neutralizes acids in- stantly. The best alkali known to medical science is Phillips’ Milk of Magnesia. It has remained the standard anti-acid with physicians in the 50 years since its invention. One spoonful of this harmles: tasteless alkali will neutralize in- stantly many times as much acid, and the symptoms disappear at MARY BOLAND.
