En route to Bismarck either Minot or Drake. From Bottineau to Bismarck by Communities and individuals in the Missouri Slope country are making the fight to keep the state capital at Bismarck their own, according to in- creasing evidence received Friday. Lions clubs at Glen Ullin, Elgin and Hettinger adopted strong resolutions favoring retention of the capital here and members of the American Legion Post at Mandan also expressed them- Selves, following a meeting Thursday night, as being in favor of Bismarck. Locally, the Trades and Labor As- sembly, organization of Bismarck union men, called on all laboring folk in the state to support Bismarck for the capital as a means of aiding in the restoration of prosperity. Reaction Is Interesting Reaction of the Mandan war vet- erans was interesting. Several speak- ers pointed out the close rocial and business relationships between per- sons in the two cities and asserted that anything which dealt a severe blow to Bismarck would have heavy repercussions tn the sister city across the river. Depreciation in the value of property in Bismarck, it was point- ed out, would be immediately followed by an almost equal depreciation in| Property values at Mandan. The Hettinger Lions club, in its resolutions, said “that the Lions club|- of the city of Hettinger, with great respect for the judgment of the pio-. neers who selected Bismarck as the site for the capital of the state, and in interest of economy and fair play. favor retention of the sald city of Bismarck as the seat of government for the state and pledges its member- ship to united action to see that the result of the forthcoming election up- on the question of capital removal will be in favor of the city of Bis- marck.” The resolution was signed by G. Hendrickson, president, and James D. Howell, secretary of the club, and by J. O. Wigen, member of the resolu- tions committee. Wigen is a member of the state house of representatives. Glen Ullin Views The resolutions of the Glen Ullin| Lions follows: | “Whereas, The capital of the state of North Dakota was located at Bis: marck by the constitution of this state, which was adopted by the con- stitutional convention ‘and approved; by the people of this state in 1880] and “Whereas, The city of Bismarck, the capital, is very close to the center of the state and te the center af pop- ulation of the state, is easily accessi- ble by rail, highway, water and air transportation and “Whereas, The state of North Da- kota has an investment of one and one-half millions of dollars in state property, which would-be almost a total loss, in case of a removal of the capital and “Whereas, A certain group of people working for their ome eeltish te Bismarck and six to Jamestown, ‘The answer, of course, is that by auto at less expense and in less absurd. anyone who cared to look it It Is contained in the simple reng with legislative mileage as should advocate such revisions in grcup makes a better argument for town.

Bismarck submits that this ts A few samples ‘of how the Jamestown argument falls when time From Rolla ‘to Bismarck by highway is 210 miles, 2 matter of six or seven hours at very reasonable road speeds. -To Jamestown it is 164 miles, a. matter of four or five hours. Yet it takes 22 hours and 57 minutes to go from Rolls to Jamestown by rail. To Bis- marck it ts 20 hours and-30 minutes by public transportation facili- ties, using the bus from Minot: The rail route to Jamestown lies by ‘way of Churchs Ferry, Devils Lake and Casselton or by way of Leeds It requires a stop overnight, with the at- tendant cost for hotel room and meals, at either Leeds, Devils Lake it requires an overnight stop at road is 195 miles and to James- town 194, a matter of six or seven hours by automobile at reason- able speed. From Bottineau to Jamestown by rail via Rugby and- Devils Lake it is a matter of 25 hours and 38 minutes, requiring either long waits or an overnight stop. To Bismarck, by using the bus from Minot, it is a matter of eight hours and 48 minutes. From Cavalier, in the northeastern part of the state, » man would be 25 hours and 34 minutes en route to Jamestown by rail and 21 hours, 29 minutes by rail and bus, The minimum to Bismarck is 24% hours. In either case the traveler must stop overnight in Grand Forks. Contrasting with this is the fact that it is only » pleasant daylight drive from Cavalier to either Bismarck or Jamestown. From Minot to either Bismarck or Jamestown it is a long and tortuous journey by rail. By highway it is a matter of three hours the Jamestown promoters base their argument on an unsound premise when they assume that people are going to travel by rail, consuming much more time and spending money for hotel expenses and meals, when they can travel than half the time. With inanimate freight, where time is not a consideration, it is possible to route shipments over the shortest rail route, regardless of the time required or the number of changes in trains, When dealing with personal transportation, however, the idea becomes, The Jamestown group makes much of the fact that 83 legista- fors charged mileage through Jamestown when coming to the state capital, The assertion has been made that Bismarck dares not mention this matter “because i is of state record and available to Bismarck not only dares'to te so but ‘éifers ain‘answer. statement that if anything is charged the state, Jamestown the present system of charges as will correct the alleged abuse, not seek to move the capital.

By subtracting the alleged saving in legislative mileage costs front the loss which would ensue if the capital were moved, we find Bismarck ahead to the tune of $71,170 annually.

Meanwhile, according to informa- tion sent to Bismarck by Congress- man J. H. Sinclair, the war depart- ment has introduced in the house a bill to transfer numerous army posts to other departments of the govern- ment and to “dispose of” 31 posts or parts of posts or military reservations throughout the country which are de- clared to be “no longer needed for military purposes.” Five Posts Mentioned ‘The bill proposes to transfer to the department of justice Chanute Field, I.; Park Field, Tenn.; Fort Lincoln, N.

FINISH ARGUMENTS IN CRIMINAL CASE OF BEN MARCOVITZ' Record Crowd Hears Closing| Pleas of William Langer and John F. Sullivan i A Burleigh county jury was ex- | posted to retire Friday afternoon to consider the case of Ben Marcovitz, Bismarck jzerchant charged with re- ceiving stélen property in connec-! tion with the theft of a poultry, shipment here in December, The largest crowd in the history of the Burleigh county district court: was on hand at the morning session! jto hear spirited arguments of coun- sel for both defense and state in summing up the case for the jury. The court room was jammed to capacity and spectators unable to} get in stood in groups along the corridors in the hope of getting; seats. Doors from the court room} into the judge’s chambers and clerk; of court’s office were left open so that spectators gathered there might get a view of the proceedings. Innocence Is Protested In a plea which lasted for more than an hour, William Langer, at- lient’s innocence and charged the state with the necessity of proving his guilt beyond all reasonable doubt. John F. Sullivan, in his arguments for the state, dwelt on alleged dis- crepancies in Marcovitz’s testimony and was caustic in his references to the case set up by the defense. oe charges against the defendant grew out of the purchase of a con- signment of turkeys stolen from the Northern Pacific railroad. The pros- ecution seeks to prove that Marco- vitz, as a partner in the Bismarck Prodyce company, purchased the turkeys, knowing them to be stolen. The state’s case centered around tes- timony given by Tom Brown, Hugh Caya, and E. D. Ditch, now serving prison terms for complicity in the affair. Purchase Is Admitted The defense admitted the purchase of the birds but denied the defend- ant was aware the poultry had been stolen. Marcovitz, testifying in his ith the produce concern was a fi- the business were left to his part- ner, Ditch, He admitted paying for the stolen shipment in cash but tes- tified that he had done so at Ditch’s direction.

The Japanese command said care would be exercised, but if misdirected shells fell in the settlement it could not be helped. American civilians were hurried out of the danger zone.
