C. Gould, superintendent of schools, has announced. ‘The campaign is aimed at the event- ual elimination of diphtheria in the schools of the county. Funds for serums have been pro- vided by the city of Mandan, the Mandan special school district, and the county. Miss Borghild Dahle, county nurse, has been in general charge of the campaign while Mandan physicians have donated their services in admin- istering the serum. Immunization work was started last fall when Miss Dahle conducted 2 series of clinics in the rural schools of the county. Every child in those schools was given an opportunity to be innoculated with the provision that consent be given by parents. The work then was carried to the city schools of Mandan where more than 90 per cent of students received injections. Youngsters under school age also were given an opportunity to be in- noculated and many of them. ranging from six months to six years, were sub- jected to the treatment. As a result of the campaign, very little diphtheria was reported in Mor- ton county this year, Gould said. One case was reported this month but the child who contracted it had not been innoculated. To Stay in Hospital For Several Weeks Joseph Fleck, Mandan attorney who was taken to the veterans hospital at Fargo Monday suffering from injur- jes sustained in a fall, probably will be kept there for several weeks, his attending physician said. Fleck sustained fractures to his arm and a broken knee cap, and was cut and bruised avout the head when he fell from a ladder while taking off storm windows at his home. To Fete Senior Class At Dance Next Month Juniors of the Mandan high school will be hosts to the seniors at a Jun- ior-Senior Prom to be held at the Riv- erside pavillion May 9. Miss Helen Miller, faculty advisor for the juniors, will be in charge. Alumni of the Mandan high school have been invited to attend. Decision to eliminate the annual dinner, held in connection with the affair in former years, was made in the interests of economy, Miss Miller said. Daylight Saving Time Considered at Mandan A proposal to adopt daylight saving time in Mandan during the summer months was discussed by members of the retail merchants division of the Mandan Chamber of Commerce at a meeting Monday night, No definite action was taken. Proponents of the idea said it would work to the advantage of merchants and would give residents of the city advantage of one more hour of day- light during the day. Those opposed to the idea said it would result in a (naraship to railroad men through con- ficts with railroad schedules. A similar proposal was made last year but was not adopted. Compiles Report Of Work in District Approximately 300 cases have been handled in the office of the juvenile commissioner at Mandan during the last nine months, according to a re- port. compiled by Mrs. Alice Bailey, commissioner. Cases handled by Mrs. Batley in- clude poor relief, juvenile delinquency and child welfare work. Included in her district are Morton, Grant, Oliver, Mercer, and Sioux counties. Approximately half of the cases handled were from Morton county, Mrs. Bailey said. TO RECUPERATE Charles Reynolds, whose retirement as chief of the Mandan police becomes effective May 1, will spend several months convalescing from a recent ill- ness, he announced Tuesday. SEEDING UNDER WAY Seeding in Morton county is well under way and many farmers are ex- pected to complete seeding opera- tions this week, according to R. C. Newcomer, county agent.

UNEMPLOYED FROLIC WAY 10 GOOD TIMES Theatrical Production Staged by Chicago Draws $4,000 at Gate Chicago, April 26.—(AP) — Chi- cago’s homeless unemployed, or at least some of them, are frolicking their way to good times. They have turned their misfortune into a gold mine, with “breadline frolics.” Renewing one of the oldest tradi- tions of the American stage — the blackfaced minstrel show—they came out of the unemployment shelters Monday night to the old Majestic theater, where they made the cus- tomers like their production to the tune of $4,000. Te And there’s more money in sight. The house was packed. Society turned out in large numbers. A policemen on guard at the door cor- rectly described the situation when he said: Che “It’s just like the opera, ain’t it?” And it was. Mrs. Rockefeller Mc- Cormick was there with a host of others. Junior leaguers sold the programs. The theater was donated. Incidental expenses are being met by a committee that sponsored the show so every nickel taken in is clear profit for the jobless. They’re going to play as long as the money comes in, and then possibly take to the road. Negotiations for a tour to other cities already are under way. There was nothing amateurish about the show, for some of the players were experienced troupers and the others spent weeks in prac- ticing, mostly to amuse themselves during the winter months—long be- fore the idea was born that they could turn their talent into real money. The subject of unemployment, however, does,not appear to be over- done. It is referred to only now and then, with humorous intent. One of the end men in the minstrel, for ex- ample, wishing he might have a nice easy job such as “dressing Mahatma Gandhi.” ——————— Tardieu Runs Out on Stimson Conference «Geneva, April 26.—(7)—A joint plan of Secretary of State Henry L. Stimson and Prime Minister Ramsay MacDonald of Great Britain to bring together, in their presence, Premier Andre Tardieu of France and Chan- cellor Heinrich Bruening of Ger- many for an effort at Franco-Ger- man reconciliation went awry Tues- day morning when Premier Tardieu failed to show up. MacDonald and Stimson thought they had the French premier’s prom- ise to meet them and Chancellor Bruening at Secretary Stimson’s villa at Bessinge, but M. Tardieu remain- ed in Paris. Chancellor Bruening was present, however, and conferred with Stim- son and MacDonald all morning. The result of the diet elections Germany Sunday have given cold chills to the leaders here who are seeking a solution of international problems, especially on the eve of the French elections.

APRIL 26, 1932 SCHOOL ‘DEFENDERS WILL COMBAT BILLS Endorse Stand Taken by Educa- tors Against Taxpayers Initiated Measures The “Defenders of the Public Schools,” an organization formed to combat five proposed measures in- itiated through the efforts of the North Dakota Taxpayers associa- tion, has indorsed the stand taken |by the North Dakota Education as- sociation against the 50 per cent property valuation measure, J. H. Miller, Washburn, head of the de- fenders group, said Tuesday. In a previous news story, Miller was quoted as saying the education association has joined the movement. Mr. Miller said the educators will work independently of the “defend- ers” but that his organization has indorsed that work. Officers of the education association said they had not joined, and do not plan joining, the defenders group. The education association is in- terested primarily in opposing the 60 per cent assessment bill, while the “defenders” are promoting op-|' position to the five taxpayers meas- ures, Miller left for Jamestown late Mon- day, and from there will go to Farz in behalf of organization work.
