For, since their phenomenal success in the film version of “Tom Sawyer,” these two- talented young’ actors are Tom Sawyer and Huck to! millions. Now in “Huckleberry Finn” they keep the roles they have made their own. Mitzi Green is Becky again, and Jackie (Boo-hoo) Searl is still with us as that pestiferous tattle- tale, Tom's little brother. In addition we have pirates—any- how, the boys think they're pirates— hidden treasure, villainous plots, and damsels in distress. Clever handling by the director who filmed “Skippy” has made the most of every hilarious situation. From Huck’s despairing efforts to spell “Pannsylvania” to the last long, tantalizing steamboat whis- tle, all Twain’s humor, ingenuity, terest are here. A picture for the whole family— one that everybody will enjoy, and one that no well-brought-up child should be allowed to miss. “Huckle- berry Finn” opens tomorrow at the Paramount theatre. UNOCCUPIED HOUSE DAMAGED BY BLAZE Fire Starts in Coal Bin in Base- ment While Family Is on Vacation Fire of mysterious origin early Wed- nesday morning caused slight damage in the unoccupied Charles Walter residence at 907 Sweet aenue, accord- ing to Harry E. Thompson, chief of the fire department. The blaze started in the coal bin in the basement of the house about 2:30 o'clock. The house was vacant at the time since the Walter family left Bis- ag about a week ago on a vacation ip. Smoke damage to the furniture in thp upstairs rooms and water damage in the basement resulted. The fire chief said it is possible the fire was started by someone who en- tered the basement through the coal chute, which was open, but said there was nothing found in the basement which might indicate that prowlers had been there. The fire department was called when neighbors noticed the house was filled with smoke, The department extinguished the burning rubbish in the coal bin in a short time. ‘Thompson said it was the first fire in Bismarck in 40 days, the last one having been July 28.

D. McKinnon, chief highway commissioner, said Wednes- day. 2 Parts of a communication sent by McKinnon to Thomas H. MacDon. ald, chief of the bureau of public), roads at Washington,’ were: “anticipating that construction work done Sept. 1 and carrying emer- gency federal ald will considerably exceed emergency federal aid allot- ted to North Dakota, we respectfully request. additional allotment of emer- gency federal aid funds of $250,000, assuming that the unobligated and unearned portions of the total emer- gency federal aid appropriations wiil be reapportioned to the states.” “When the highway department lost so memy miles of plans last win- ter in the capitol fire, concern was felt in certain quarters that our high- way department would not be able to speed up enough to take up-the fed- eral aid emergency funds allotted and that they would revert to other states, McKinnon said. “North Dakota’s construction sea- son is so much shorter than other states who work all, or nearly all of the year, that it did seem doubtful if North Dakota could let the contract and have completed by Sept. 1, $1,- 200,000 worth of new work. Some states were not able to speed up enough to take up their entire allot- ment and it was the hope that North Dakota would be able to get some of this money allotted to other states that prompted us to apply for fur- ther funds. “This emergency appropriation pro- vided by the last congress can be used rad on work completed by Sept. 1, 1931, “Thousands of men have been given employment on work that will be of! lasting value to the state. . “After Sept. 1 construction must be paid for, one-half by our regular federal aid and the balance from state and county funds. This neces- sitates great curtailment in work and will undoubtedly be felt through- out the state. “Unemployed men and their fami- lies must be cared for and will be operatives, as a means of securing “adequate protection” for the farmer, was advocated by Edward A. O'Neal, president of the American Farm Bu- reau Federation, in an address at the fl state fair here Tuesday. The equalization fee, O'Neal said, would, by isolating the exportable surplus, permit the American farmer ;to exchange the products of his toil; {for other American products on a parity with other industrial groups. It would free the American market, jfrom the. competition of world mar- kets and it has the further advantage he said, of avoiding governmental subsidy to agriculture in that this fee is paid by all producers of @ crop on the surplus which cannot be disposed of at home. .. “The farmer,” said he, “feels that industry has the advantage of us with its very high tariffs, while the price we get for our products is de- termined by the price of our surplus in the world markets. “The farmer feels, too, that -the high industrial tariffs are preventing sale of our exportable agricultural surpluses.” Farmers are deeply interested in the credit situation, O’Neal said. such vast accumulation of cash in city banks and no money out in the coun- try for capital or for marketing pur- poses. They feel the whole agricul- tural credit system needs overhauling. |They also approve of regualtions con- \trolling grain and cotton exchanges. |The proposed increase in railroad (freight rates does not, however, meet with the approval of the farmers. Farmers feel that the railroads are making a very poor move.” ‘Red Cross Starts Drive for Clothing Helena, Mont., Sept. 9.—An appeal for clothing contributions, children’s garments, to be used in drouth affected Montana-North able to attend school suitable clothing can Shepard said.

INSTRUCTIONS GIVEN de- Chapters Asked By National Chief to Extend Help to Unemployed Washington, Sept. 9.—(#)—Instruc- tions to local Red Cross chapters un- der which they may extend une: ployment relief next winter were be- ing drafted Wednesday at national headquarters. John Barton Payne, national chatr- man, was preparing a letter to all Red Cross chapters instructing them to use their own funds for relief of the jobless if distreas was not being cared for by other agencies. Cross to play a jug local chapters in preventing distress among the jobless despite the tradi- tional policy of the national organ- ization of confining its efforts to dis- asters caused by “acts of God.” Chairman Payne explained the in- structions would not constiute a change in policy for the national re- lief association. He said it had been the policy of the Red Cross to use national funds only for disasters caused by nature. ‘The Red Cross head pointed out, that local chapters could accomplish much in administering relief without receiving funds from national head-~ quarters, because most of the money raised in the annual roll call is re- tained by local Red Cross organiza-| tions. National headquarters receives 50; cents of each annual contribution, The remainder goes to the chapter through which the donation was made. The Red Cross has been criticized | severely in some quarters for its re-| fusal to extend unemployment relief | in the same way it deals with other | catastrophies. Payne has held, how- ever, that its charter would not per- mit the national organization to treat | the jobless problem in the same man- | ner as disasters of nature. | Nearly 50 species’ of sparrows are found in North Dakota.
