Kennelly, Mandan, coroner ot n county, was at Hebron on business at the time, and investigated we death. He said death was acci- ital, and no inquest would be held. Mrs. Engelter was born at Degraff, ‘Minn., March 1, 1879, coming to Man- dan as an infant with her parents, ‘Mr. and Mrs, Mike Keough, early a here. The parents are now ; The woman was a graduate of Val- ley City normal school, and taught school at Hebron and New Salem. She Married Engelter in August, 1904. ¢ Surviving are her husband, son, and two sisters. Tentative plans are for holding funeral services at Hebron Sunday, with burial in the family plot at Mandan. She was prominent in @atholic church work in Morton county. Little, Duemeland And Hughes Named By Bismarck Mayor (Continued from page one) suggested that the waterworks bonds be extended so that future genera- tions would pay a part of the cost but Mayor A. P. Lenhart said it would be bad business to pay so much in interest. The net revenue of the water- works department, after paying bond interest and operating expenses, was fixed at $23,000 for the 11 months ending May 31. Henry Richholt suggested that where special assessment delin- quencies occur the cost be charged against other property in the dis- trict. He cited the Front avenue year, He asserted that if a police-| man were cut off the payroll half the people there would join in a protest. Mrs. Martin Burgess, widow of the late R. H. Thistlewaite, said her late husband told,her, while employ- ed in the state department of ag- riculture and labor, that he was | ashamed to draw his pay, that he could do alone the work three men were being paid to do. H On another occasion, she said, a} capitol employe was away for a year and the work went on just the same. She objected to that manner of do- ing public business. Favors Detailed Study Fleck said only one suggestion, that for a more detailed study, had been advanced by the group and Webb said the Association of Com- merce committee would welcome the assistance of men with wide ex- perience in making it. Mayor Lenhart and Commissioner T. Perry inquired if the tax pro- s intended to confine their s to the city government acti alone. The answer was a chorus of “No” from all parts of the commission chamber. George D. Mann suggested that Mayor Lenhart appoint some of the city’s heaviest taxpayers to cooper- ate with the existing committee in recommending adjus' it. If the city government takes the lead, he said other branches of government will fall in line. He emphasized that they, also, would come under the scrutiny of the committee. After some discussion as to who should appoint the additional com- mitteemen, Lenhart announced the appointment of Little, Hughes and Duemeland and the budget hearing was recessed until Aug. 3. The new committee is expected to make its study in the meantime and recommend changes at that time. This meeting also will be open to the public. Powers Agree on Measures Needed To Aid Situation _ (Continued from page one) another attempt to force through an extra session of the Riechstag. HOOVER SAYS BASIS LAID FOR IMPROVEMENT Washington, July 23.—(#)—Presi- dent Hoover said Thursday the Lon- don conference had “laid sound foun- dations for the establishment of sta- bility in Germany.” The program adopted by the con- ference, he said, supplements the suspension of inter - governmental debts already in effect. “The combined effect,” he added, “should enable the Germat people with their resources, industry and courage, to overcome the temporary difficulties and restore their credit.” CALLS STATE MEETING Pierre, 8. D., July 23.—(#)—Gover- nor Warren Green Thursday asked 22 state leaders to meet at Huron July 30 to work out a program to meet the serious situation caused by drouth, grasshopper damage and low farm prices. paving to prove that some persons would be unable to pay the assess- ments and the property would re- vert to the city, thereby going off the tax lists. Col. Little said he had “presented” the city 30 lots in the east end be- cause the cost of paving was more than they were worth. Atkinson said delinquencies be- came general obligations of the cit; and, that the proposed method o! handling them would be unconsti- tutional. Is $7 Per Capita From data supplied by Atkinson, Col. Little totaled the city payroll at $80,000 and the figure was not disputed. He pointed out that this is more than $7 a year for each per- @son in the city and “too much”. Considerable saving could be made there, he said, In the light of its heavy expendi- tures and existing business condi- tions, Little said, the city seems to be headed toward the same shape in which it found itself between 1890 and 1900, when it repudiated some of its obligations. Heavy tax delinquencies, appar- ent now, will increase, he said, be- cause the people haven’t got the money to pay. Each businessman is figuring on how to cut expenses, he said, and government should do the same. government is no worse than other political divisions in this respect and that the “school board probab- ly is the worst of the lot.” “You can’t collect money as taxes if the people haven’t got it,” Little said. ‘General Cut’ Urged J. P. Jackson said a “general cut” is in order and that some things should be cut sharply, while Alfred Zuger asserted that cuts must be made “all along the line.” He said government will have to carry on at less cost as private citizens are doing. M.:B. Gilman inquired if the bud- get is based on past experience and was told it was. He pointed out that income probably will be reduced and that recent experience was based on conditions different from those which now exist. J. A. Fleck said the budget should be “taken apart” and examined item by item to see where cuts can be made and that it would be impos- sible to do it at a general meeting. He said a committee might be ap- pointed to “get down to brass tacks” and examine the budget closely. Webb said his committee had lacked time to get deeply into the matter but that its investigation had disclosed no place where reductions seemed feasible. In the judgment of the committee, he said, the com- missioners were proposing to levy as little as they could safely do. The main worry, he said, was what the balance would be at the end of the 1927 Pontise Sedan with He asserted that the city | g |oken Grove for the Achievement day To Announce Winner In Garden Contest; Announcement of the winner of the county garden contest conducted by Homemakers’ clubs as well as winners of the inter-club contests will be made Friday when club mem- bers and their friends gather at Men- program.

Fevold left Thursday for Min- neapolis on a short business trip. The July meeting of the Crofte Star Homemakers’ club took the form of an all-day picnic at the Victor Nel- son grove, near Baldwin. More than 100 persons attended. A program of games and sports followed the dinner and part of the afternoon was given over to a business meeting of the or-/| ganization. Mrs. Herbert Fricke and Miss Elsie Meyer were named as project leaders. The next meeting is scheduled for Aug. 12 at the home of Mrs, Carl Landerho! Machinery Payments To Be Made in Wheat Chicago, July 23.—(#)—Many of the International Harvester company's dealears have arranged to accept wheat as half-payment for farm machinery. This was announced Wednesday night by Alexander Legge, chairman of the company’s board. Wheat for December delivery will be accepted) at 75 cents a bushel on the basis of the Chicago price, which yesterday} ranged from 51 3-4 to 54 cents. This would mean a bonus of more than 20 cents, minus the shipping cost. Legke explained, however, that the plan was not a general one and that it would not include all dealers, or all) kinds of machinery. Neither would it| extend to past accounts. | “It is simply a plan of helping the| dealers clear surplus stocks and, at the same time, help farmers find a market for part of their crop,” he said. Local officials said Thursday that the plan would immediately be put into effect at the Bismarck branch. Wheat will be accepted as part pay- ment on harvesting machines, com- bines and certain other machinery, jbroken bones or serious injury. WAHPETON FIRES PUZZLING Wahpeton, N.
