Men ' Belief that much of the work of Gesigning the new state capitol build- sng will be done here and that the structure will meet the hopes which residents of the state hold for it is expected by George A. Bangs, chair- man of the capitol commission, in an article written for The Associated Mr. Bang’s statement follows: By GEORGE A. BANGS President, Board of State Capitol Commissioners The capitol co. loners, ap- Pointed by Governor ‘Shafer, under H. B. No. 79, have been peculiarly fortunate in the selection of archi- tects to design and prepare the plans and specifications for, as well as su- generally and the commission real- izes that such approval cannot be given save as their work is known; all of the proceedings of the commis- sion are public and it is the desire of the commission to keep the people at all times.fully sdvised of all steps} being taken to the end that approval may be given where justified. The commission takes pleasure in acknowledging the cordial coopera- tion by Governor Shafer, the secre- tary of the state, state treasurer and other officers and we will’ be doned for particular reference to State Auditor Steen and Land Com- missioner Byerly, who have given of their time in compiling information relative to the financial details of the project. i PLAN CIVIL ACTIONS perintend the construction of, the Mew capitol building, The DeRemers, doseph Bell and Samuel T., with W. F, Kurke of Fargo, represent the highest type of architectural skill, experience and organization in North Dakota while Holabird and Root en- joy the’same position in the national field. The purpose of the joint em- Ployment is best expressed in para- graph (1)-(N) of the contract as fol- Jows: “The purpose *** is that the board shall be entitled to and shall receive the services of the combined person- nel of the parties of the second and third parts (the architects) so that the work may be carried out as nearly as possible as though it were one or- ganization, to the end that there shall be constructed hereunder a capitol building of the highest efficiency, durability, taste and beauty as a no- bie expression, in lasting materials, of @ sovereign state; that, consistent with the foregoing, no money greater than is necessary shall be expended outside the state and that the in- terests, under the law, of North Da- kota labor, material and contractors shall be, in good faith, carefully safe- guarded; that both the second and third parties (the architects) hereto shall earnestly, sincerely and cordially cooperate therein.” Preference to N. D. Men It has long been the policy of the state, and the capitol commission law expressly provides, that preference shall be given to bona fide residents of the state in all work, labor, em- ployment and positions in and about the building including a five per cent preference on North Dakota ma- terial and three per. cent preference to North Dakota contractors; this is sound public policy and im accord with the practice of other states; profits paid North Dakota architects, contractors, material, men and labor- ers are subject to North Dakota in- come taxes and, remaining within the state, increase domestic wealth and taxable property. ‘The architectural functions fall in- to divisions something after the fash- jon as follows: First, there is the ascertainment, analysis and statement. of the requirement of the building which furnish the cubic contents or bulk of the building and, in turn, isan important factor in the second ar- chitectural function of the prepara- tion of the design or external form of the building, after which comes the preparation of the detailed plans, specifications, ete. and finally, the actual structural. work. During the! progress of the second stage, i. e., the preparation of the design, doubtless, models of the proposed building will be prepared and it is likely oppor-| tunity will be afforded our people! generally to thus become acquainted with the proposed form of the build- mi is expected that the first phase, to-wit: the preparation of the re-' quirements, will begin at the very earliest possible moment and prob- ably will have been initiated before this reaches the reader; question- naires to be answered by the various} state officers are in course of prep- aration and the inforniation received in response thereto, after checking, will furnish a working basis for the architects’ investigations and analysis. It is hoped this first phase of the work will be completed shortly after! Nov. 1 and the following phases will be urged with all possible expedition. It is expected that an office will be opened at Bismarck where, so far’ as practicable, all of the architec: tural work will be performed save that, under the contract, the connected with the design may be performed at Chicago, participated in by Messrs. DeRemer and Kurke, Capitols Are Different ‘The building of a capitol is differ- ent from almost any other task. There is but one capitol building for the nation and but one capitol building for each state; the capitol building is the physical, bodily form which houses the heart and nerve centers) of the state; within its walls dwell the legislative, the executive and the judicial branches of the government, together with all of the various de- partments thereof and ar person- vania, Ilinois or thier states in matters of sculpture, other embellishments with such approval as such may receive from the people Will Attempt To Collect Liquor Taxes From Nation's Bootleggers ‘Washington, Sept. 11—(?)—Speak- easy operators and bootleggers are to be confronted by civil action brought by the prohibition bureau to collect liquor taxes under the federal rev- enue act. A revised set of-orders has been issued by Prohibition Director Wood- cock to his enforcement army to in- stitute civil action to collect taxes where criminal prosecution has failed and where it is not contemplated. In this way the dry law enforce- ment chief expects to punish Volstead act violators, who, through technical or other means, evade criminal prose- cution. Tactics, such as were employed years before prohibition against moonshirters in the Kentucky hills by revenue agents, are to be used. How- ever, the taxes under the 1926 rev- enue act are much larger, and, with penalties collections, ly will Tange into the hundreds of thousands against some big liquor operators. ‘The tax on a gallon of spirits used for beverage purposes now is $5.30. Diversion of 20,000 gallons of alcohol would result in a tax in excess of $100,000. In addition, state revenue laws on alcohol may be imposed, along with the federal tax under the prohi- bition law for the manufacture of jp- toxicating liquor. From time to time civil taxes and penalties have been imposed by the federal governmet on violators under the prohibition act, but the decision to resume the practice in the form of @ somewhat concerted drive was reached at the justice department only after prolonged discussions. Early this year, previous orders rela- jtive to the practice were rescinded pending the outcome of a case before the United States supreme court, Heiress Is Married; TO COLLECT REVENUE}, Dickinson Youth Is Dickinson, N.

When this noted musical organiza- tion went to Spain in 1929 to repre- sent the United States at the Ibero- American exposition at Seville it had opportunity to hear many fine bands play the selections native to their homelands. As a result, the pieces of foreign origination which will be offered here, will be played with the skill and feeling which the composers jintended to give them. Many music lovers have expressed particular interest in this phase of [the program while others, with less technical training, are anticipating other parts of the program which will include popular as well as class- ical numbers. On its trip abroad the band visited many of the cities on the European continent, exchanging musical views with European musicians and re- hearsing under the direction of Old World directors. Many original Eur- opean manuscripts were presented to the band for its library. The concerts will be presented in the World War Memorial building.

Commons On Britain’s Economy Bill London, Sept. 11—(7)—Prime Min- ister MacDonald, opening the debate on the government's drastic economy | bill in the house of commons, Friday | defended procedure by orders in| council as essential for speedy solu- | tion of the financial crisis. MacDonald promised that the pow- er to issue orders in council ‘would | last only one month. He said the crisis temporarily had subsided but the nation’s position must be en-! trenched before every measure that thad been taken could be thrown to the wind. ‘The financial position of the coun- try must be sound as well as the budget balance, he declared, and his duty in applying the national econ- omy resolutions was no less difficult and unpleasant than that of Chan- cellor Snowden’s Thursday. The cabinet's problem, MacDonald told the house, was not merely one of putting the nation’s fiscal affairs in- ’| to such a position that everyone doing business with the country should be satisfied that the British financial fabric was sound.
