The role, one of the most coveted in film- dom, is of the same calibre as “Madame X,” “The Sin of Madelon Claudet” or “Sarah and Son,” and Wynne Gibson had only played com- paratively small parts, most of them on the flapper type. But Louis Gasnier and Max Marcir, the directors, believed that Miss Gib- son was capable of the deeply emo- tional role, which follows the career of Clara Deane from a beautiful young bride to a broken old woman. As a result of her performance, Paramount has placed her in line for stardom. Featured with Miss Gibson in “The Strange Case of (lara Deane” are Pat O’Brien, the Hildy Johnson of “The Front Page;” Frances Dee, who was Sondra in “An American Trag- edy” and Dudley Digges, famous char- acter actor of the American and Irish theatres.

I | A judgment ordering the state of North Dakota to refund to the: Ford Motor company $55,580.58 plus six per cent interest since July 16, 1923, Tues- day was filed with the clerk of Bur- leigh county district court by Judge R. G. McFarland, Jamestown. Execution of the payment was stayed by Judge McFarland until March 16, 1933, to enable the state so legislature to appropriate for the re- ‘fund at its next session. The judge's ruling follows several years of litigation in which the Ford! * firm sought to recover income tax as- sessments made against it by the state in 1921 and 1922, Judge McFarland ruled that the as- sessments in question were not made in accordance with the 1919 North Da- kota income tax law, stating that the comparative property method of allo- cation was proper and that the com- parative sales method was improper.

Marr, secretary of the local elev: tor. “In spite of the keen competition here the directors hope to be able to pay an eight per cent stock dividend this year, although it is likely that the proration dividend will be passed this year,” Marr said. The board retained M. A. Grannis, manager, and John M.- McGovern, bookkeeper, for the ensuing year and made plans for the annual meeting to be held here July 9. Herman Nel- json is president; John C.

Gallo- HEROES ARE MADE — NOT BORN. eestor MAY BUSINESS BEST NO FAR THIS YEAR Tonnage Handled and Unit) Sales Increased Moderate- ly, Dun Company Says Both at wholesal: and retail, dis- | tributive totals during May made the| best showing in volume of any unit this year, with tonnage handled- and unit sales increasing moderately, ac- cording to R. G. Dun and Company. As a result of this better trend,| there has been developed a feeling of | encouragement that is far more pro-j| nounced than could be discerned aj year ago. The warmer weather has stimulated | interest in all lightweight wearing ap-| parel, and sales of beach clothes,| sporting goods and summer needs in general were given such an impetus | by the Memorial day holiday that) much of the momentum was reflected | in the enlarged movement of such items during the current week. Money and credit conditions are somewhat easier in many districts, and the feeling of hesitation and un- certainty which has been such a han- dicap to sustained progress is less in evidence as the political situation-be- gins to lose some of its confusing as- pects. Taking advantage of the momentum gained from National Cotton week, department stores and specialty shops have been placing re-orders on their best selling items. In view of the unusually pronounced goods and apparel and the sustained confidence in cottons on the part of merchants, plans have been completed for continuing aggressive promotions through June and probably up to the end of July. The drive that has been launched in some of the leading retail centers to feature quality, or tested, merchan- dise, in an endeavor to transfer at- | tention from the waning appeal of the purely price factor, has met with en- couraging response. The return of better standard of quality in merchandise generally is an economic factor of prime importance and is growing evidence that this pro- motional emphasis will be carried in- to practice. Manufacturers of machine tools and farm implements, particularly in the middle west, report a marked improve- ment in orders for the first time in nearly two years, which indicates that farmers are going ahead on a larger scale in their preparations for this year's harvests. The discontinuance of unprofitable lines, actual destruction of excess manufacturing equipment, and com- plete concentration on products from which a profit can be made are the major moves occupying the attention of leading industrialists. In getting back to original size, it is pointed out that such companies hope to preserve their principal mar- kets and align their productive ¢: pacities more in consonance with | changed marketing conditions. ——E—E— ——_—_—_[_=_=_{[_====_== ES Sell your old tire to Fred Sorkness at Gamble’s.

D., June 7.—(#)— Harry Stricker, Moorhead, has learned much of the workings of the law during the last few months. Charged recently with aggravated assault and battery, ‘he pleaded guilty in Cass county court and was sentenced to a year in the county jail and fined $1000. Later his attorney began habeas corpus proceedings to have him released on grounds the county court was without jurisdiction because the crime is a felony. The state supreme court issued a writ of habeas corpus for Stricker's release after the district court had refused to grant the writ. Stricker was released, but im- mediately was rearrested on the same charge. In justice court | Monday, his attorney argued for MINN. U GRADUATES MANY N.

Bond was set at $500 in default of which Stricker is held. The charge upon which he now is held carries a maximum penalty of 30 days in jail and $100 fine while the charge dismissed carries a maximum penalty of a year and $500 fine or not to exceed one year in the penitentary. on grounds that the complaint upon which Stricker was then in court had been issued and filed in the county court be- fore the writ for his release had been received from the supreme Judge Bingham granted the motion and dismissed the T.

An appropriation bill for the pay- ment was passed by both houses of the state legislature in 1929 but was vetoed by Governor George F. Shafer. Began Action in 1929 In the spring of 1929 the Ford com- pany began action in the courts. A demurrer to the company’s action at that time by the state was overruled by Judge Fred Jansonius in Burleigh county district court. Judge Janso- nius’ ruling subsequently was upheld by the state supreme court and trial of the case on its merits was held before Jugge McFarland last Decem- ber. Dismissing the jury in the case, Judge McFarland instructed both par- ties to the action to file briefs of their arguments with him. Representing the state in the ac- ; tion were Charles Simon, assistant at- torney general; State Tax Commis- sioner Iver A. Acker and other of- jficers of the state tax department.
