Appearing in behalf of his resolu- tion to impeach the treasury head, Patman said, “I not only allege -he has been indirectly concerned in car- rying on business, but also I believe 1 can prove that he has directly con- cerned himself in carrying on that business.” Patman said this was forbidden by federal laws. He seeks Mellon’s im- peachment on the ground he has vio- lated this statute. Mellon Attorneys Present Two representatives of Mellon, of the treasury internal revenue bu- reau; and-D. D. Shepard, an attorney from Pittsburgh, represented him. Patman first suggested Gregg open the testimony. “It is my understanding represent- jatives of Secretary Mellon have in- what the law would be known as a demurrer,” the Texan said. “It would seem to me that the burden of proof rests on those de- murring.” Representative Dyer, of Missouri, ranking Republican on the committee, interposed it was Patman’s duty t> make a prima facie case on his dered Patman to proceed. Patman read a letter he said was written in 1929 by Melion to Senator Reed, Pennsylvania Republican, dur- ing a senate judiciary committee in-| vestigation, in which the secretary | said he owned stock in the Aluminum Company of America, the Gulf Oil company and other corporations, but in every case much less than a ma- jority of the voting stocks. Such Ownership Rare Patman said the law does not spe- cify that stock ownership is an indi- rect engagement in business but con- tended that such ownership was rare when the law was enacted. Patman quoted extensively from a deposition given by Mellon in 1928 in @ New York case involving a business combination between the Mellon owned Aluminum company and the Canadian manufacturing and de- velopment, an aluminum concern con- trolled by the late James B. Duke. Numerous conversations were men- tioned between Mellon and A. V. Da- vis, president of the Aluminum Com- pany of America. One of these meet- ings took place in Pittsburgh, and Mellon was qouted as saying, in “our bank” in which Davis is.a director. SEEK MISSING GIRL Belle Fourche, 8.

D., Jan. 4th, 1932. WE WILL ASK MR. GORMAN Editor, Tribune: T noticed in the Tribune an account of the shipment of 1,400 carloads of hay into the drought area. I have been interested in the expenditure of the funds for relief in that area and have wondered if the money had been made to work in two ways in every instance possible. I mean by this question to find out if care was ex- ercised in every case to purchase from needy farmers, because many farmers had some one thing that they could sell, if there had been a market, such as hay, potatoes, feed grain, or stock. If these 1,400 carloads of hay were bought from farmers who had hay to Spare and nothing much else to pay their way through the winter, I would consider that the money had been made to do its full duty. I would like to ask Mr. Gorman of the Agri- cultural College about it and for the general information of the farmers of the state have his answer come through the Tribune. From what sections of North Dakota did the hay come? Was it filled with quack-grass as reported? In what condition was it shipped? How many farmers of North Dakota benefited by the pur- chase, regardless of the final distri- bution in the drought areas? yout North Dakota and feel that whether state or national funds are used, that it all comes out of the same pocket and the general public should know how, where, and for what, it is spent. Yours respectfully, A DAKOTAN. The reason for my interest in this | f Office, Navy Department, has report-|fund is that I ae a taxpayer in ‘ fresh and sweet! with cake soap.

R. Atkinson, city engineer, told members of the Bis- marck Rotary club Wednesday noon. In_ addition, it would bring the facilities of cheap water transporta- tion much closer to the states in the Middlewest. North Dakota, which 1s 1,500 miles from seaboards to the east, west, and south, would be brought 1,050 miles closer to an out- let to the ocean, he said, Outlining the proposal to open up water traffic through the Great Lakes and up the St. Lawrence to the Atlantic, Atkinson stated that the project had been under consideration for the last 100 years. In 1919 @ joint, commission, rep- resenting the United States and Can- ada, was appointed to investigate the possibilities of the undertaking. Two years later a second commission was appointed under the leadership of Herbert Hoover to work in conjunc- tion with a engineering commission. Pians were formulated whereby a channel of 27 feet could be dug in shallow sections of the route and which would be sufficient to permit Passage of 97 per cent of ships in ocean traffic. ‘The greatest difficulty confronting proponents of the undertaking at the present time is the division of power Tights along the route, Atkinson said. F. L. Copelin announced that there would be no regular meeting of the club next Wednesday. Instead mem- bers will attend the annual meeting of the Association of Commerce to be held next Wednesday evening. Ray Bergeson urged that as many as possible attend the basektball game Saturday for the benefit of the city’s unemployed at the World War Memo- rial building. Join Conrad, Keokuk, Ia., and L. R.
