The senate yielded in the face of a/ White House warning that responsi- bility for such a provision would rest upon congress. Conferences to adjust the differ- ences between senate and house on the legislation had yet to agree. After conferring with Hoover, Dem- cratic senatorial conferees insisted he would not veto the bill even if publicity for the loans is kept in it. Some of the conferees of the senate apparently were impressed by the President's objections to that provi- sion and indicated they were not ready to yield to the house on it. Speaker Garner expected the sen- ate to yield and told newspapermen congress would probably adjourn Saturday in view of President Hoov- er’s “surrender” on the publicity is- sue. In an interview shortly afterward, Speaker Garner backed up Rainey and said “we are perfectly delighted to have the responsibility. We are in favor of conducting the public business openly. The Republicans al- ways prefer to do the public’s busi- ness in secrecy. Something to Blame “The president has been looking for a panic right around the corner and for something to blame it on. If it comes he will blame it on the Publicity to these loans.” The white house statement came after a conference in which senate conferees on the measure and mem- bers of the board of the finance cor- | poration participated. At it the chief executive's objec- tion to the publicity proviso was made known but the white house statement isstied soon after was taken | as an indication he would approve the measure even if it contained the Publicity provision he disapproves. Meantime, Rep, Rainey, the house Democratic leader, said flatly after a conference with Speaker Garner that the publicity clause would remain or “there would be no bill.” The white house statement said that since the objections to the pub- lecity clause now were. known .“then the responsibility in the last analysis for whatever might happen must nec- essarily rest upon congress.” R. F.C. Board. Meets The white house statement disclos- ed that the board of the reconstruc- tion corporation” met late Thursday and later advised the president of the damage that would result to the cred- it structure if this (the publicity pro- viso) were insisted upon.” Members of the board at the con- ference Friday morning, the state- ment said, pointed out to senate con- ferees that a senate committee al- ready existed to investigate the cor- | Poration’s loans. , . It was stated a similar opportunity was open to the house, and that the board members said the house was “welcome” to investigate. The statement said Mr. Hoover had told the conferees “his policy always had been to give the fullest publicity to all government aptivities but that he wished congress to be fully ap- praised of the result in view of the | emergency.” { It was explained at the white house | only senate conferees had been in- vited to the conference because the house conferecs were discharged Thursday after that chamber voted to uphold Speaker Garner in his in- sistence upon retention of the public- ity clause. f Boy of 15 Kicked | | To Death by Man e Denver, July 16.—(AP)—Eu- gene Davis, 15, bore no grudge.

Debt Alliance Is Rapped Found Dead | ——> a LESLIE DELANO Search for Lesile Delano, 20- months-old, ended when his body was found in a cesspool near his home. MINNEAPOLIS BABY APPARENTLY SLAIN, OFFICIALS DECLARE 20-Month-Old Leslie Delano Is Found Dead in Catch Basin Near Home Minneapolis, July 15.—(AP)—Les- lie Delano, 20-month-old boy, was slain, W. C. Thurston, Anoka coun- ty coroner, announced Friday after reading a report on the findings of a University of Minnesota pathol- ogist who examined the baby’s or- gans. “We can see no other alternative than murder,” said coroner Thurs- ton, speaking for himself and Dr. James McCartney, pathologist. The boy’s body was found at the bottom of a catch basin near his suburban Columbia Heights home Thursday. He had been sought by neighbors, police, and national guardsmen since his disappearance from home last Friday. Dr. McCartney said strangulation, either by a person or by close con- finement and lack of air, might have caused death. He had been dead “not longer than 24 hours and more probably 12 hours,” Dr. McCartney said. “The cause of death was probab- ly suffocation. He was probably dead or dying when his body entered the cesspool,” coroner Thurston said. “We can see no other alternative than murder.” Mike Auspos, deputy sheriff, theorized the crime was committed by “someone in the block in which the Delano home is located. Very likely by someone who participated in the hunt for Leslie.” INDIAN WOMAN DIES AT LOCAL HOSPITAL Mrs. Charles Grady Had Been lll With Bright's Disease For Year Mrs. Charles Grady, 400-pound In- dian woman from Shell village, near Van Hook, died in a local hospital at 5:80 o’clock Thursday afternoon, Her death was caused by Bright’s disease. She had been ill for a year but had been in the hospital only Re days. Mrs. Grady was 32 years old. Mrs. Grady, who was Jessie Ward before her marriage, was born in 1900 at the Fort Berthold reserva- tion, the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Joe Ward, who now reside at Van Hook. She was educated at the U.

Does Not Assume Combin- ed Action is Planned PLEASED AT SETTLEMENT Makes it ‘Absolutely Clear’ This Nation is Not Committed in Any Way Washington, July 15.—(#)—The ad-} ministration does not intend to let} the United States be oludgeoned into @ revision of war debts by any con- certed agreement of European nations —if there is one. The attitude of American powers that be toward rapid developments following the Lausanne conference and “gentlemen's agreement” was ex- pressed by President Hoover in a let- ter to Chairman Borah of the senate foreign relations committee: “While I do not assume it to be the Purpose of any of these agreements to effect a combined action of our debt- ors, if it shall be so interpreted then | I do not propose the American people shall be pressed into any line of ac- tion or that our policies shall be in any way influenced by such a combi- nation either open or implied,” the letter said. Hoover expressed gratification at Problem of reparations” but said he wanted to make it “absolutely clear” the United States is not “in any way committed to such agreements.” Score British Statements The state department was particu- larly interested in official British statements attempting to wipe out tions were combining to force war debt revision upon the United States. They expressed pleasure at the Brit- ish position the Anglo-French accord | would not keep Great Britain from discussing her debts individually with the United States. Some state department officials, however, emphasized the line in the Anglo-French accord binding the two governments to consult on “any ques- tions . . . similar in origin to that now so happily settled at Lausanne which may affect the European regime.” It was made clear once more that the American position is the same as in June, 1931, when President Hoover proclaimed the one-year moratorium. He opposed debt cancellation but ex- | Pressed opinion the American people | would not want to force any other jnation to pay more than it could. U. S. Not Consulted The Lausanne agreement provides that reductions in German repara- tions are not to be made unless the United States revises its debt con- tracts with European nations. On this point, President Hoover wrote to the Idaho senator: “I wish to make it absolutely clear that the United States has not been consulted regarding any of the agree- ments reported by the preess to have |been concluded recently at Lausanne, and that of course it is not a party to nor in any way committed to any jSuch agreements.” The president's letter, it was under- stood, was directed more at the Lau- sanne agreement than the Anglo- French accord. H Regardless of European action, con- gress is in an almost immovable po- sition toward cancellation or reduc- tion of war debts. Members of hous: and senate point out frequently that | war debts and reparations already | have been revised twice. BRITAIN INTERESTED BY HOOVER DECLARATION London, July 15.—()—Great Bri- tain pondered President Hoover's let- ter to Senator Borah Friday, in which he declared the United States. would not be pressed on the debt question by any combination in Europe, but the general attitude seemed to be the question was cleared up by the offi- |cial explanations here Thursday. The letter was the big news of the day in morning papers. Although it came too late for ex- tended editorial comment in London papers, it was pointed out the Down- ing street statement of Thursday showed there was no intention, in the Lausanne gentlemen’s agreement or the later Anglo-French accord, to form a united front against the Unit- ed States. any impressions that European na- |, AT PARK CEREMONY Canada and United States Call on World to Observe and Take Heed THOUSANDS ATTEND FETE Million to Be Spent on Peace Garden in Spring; Big En- dowment Planned Dunseith, N. D., July 15.—(AP)— Near the geographical center of the North American continent, Cana- dians and Americans Thursday dedi- cated a natural monument to peace and called upon nations of the world to view it as an example of good will and understanding that can exist be- tween countries. By thousends, citizens of both countries gathered on the interna- tional boundary where speakers pointed to more than 100 years of peaceful relationship between ° the two nations, as a 3.000-acre peace garden site was dedicated to per- petuation of that friendship. The gathering is believed to have settlement “of the strictly Europeanipeen the largest in the history of North Dakota. Estimates were made Friday that between 55,000 and 60,000 Persons were present. The figures are based on the number of automobiles checked by customs agents as visitors Passed from one country into the other. Unveiling of a cairn of rough rock ulders climaxed the dedicatory ceremonies. On the cairn, the pledge of the two nations is inacribed® “To God in His Glory, we two nations dedicate this garden, and pledge our- selves that as long as men shall live, we will not take up arms against one another.” The garden site is 30 miles north of Rugby, N. D., geographical cen- ter of Be PELs Landscape artists ‘Work or: mete ie) the area next spring, with ‘illion dollars to be spent. In addition, it is proposed to set up a $4,000,000 permanent endowment fund for the maintenance of the park. Boasts 17 Lakes Within the preserve are seventeen lakes, while more than two hundred lakes are flung throughout the moun- tain valleys within a few miles rad- ius. The Canada to Canal Highway, regarded as the longest in the world, pierces the peace garden around which a protective zone has been set up to restrict commercial establish- ments within a radius of five miles from the park. Canadians and Am- ericans fraternized throughout the day and neighborliness and friend- liness was in the air. They gathered at sports events, witnessing games native to the respective countries. Horse shoe, soft ball, Lacrosse and baseball brought out friendly rivalry. Twelve bands, massed and individ- ually, played the music of both na- tions. After the unveiling of the cairn and dedication of the garden, nation- al and international hymns were sung by a massed international choir. Sing International Anthem They sang an “international” an- them, consisting of one verse of “America” one verse of “God Save the King,” and the international verse: “Two nations by the sea “Two nations great and free, “One anthem raise; “One race of ancient fame, “One faith, one tongue, we claim, “One God whose holy name “We love and praise.” To emphasize the theme of peace, the dedication ceremonies ended with a “tug-of-peace” on the border line, Canadians on the native land and Americans on United States soil. At a dance Thursday night young and old of the two nations frolicked to tunes of both countries.

CONFEREES TRYING TO GET RELIEF BILL READY FOR PASSAGE House Insists on Publicity For Loans by Reconstruction Corporation Washington, July 15.—(?)—Fear they might be forced to approve a bill jthat would not suit the president | Spurred senate and house conferees Friday toward agreement on a $2,122,- 000,000 relief program. There had been no definite word | from Hoover that he would not accept |the principal point at issue—a house | Proposal that all loans by the recon- struction finance corporation be made public, not only the amounts, but the interest as well. Senate conferees were reported to have been informed the president did not approve, holding the provision would be harmful to borrowers. Some leaders hoped that, even though the president did object, he would not Press his dissatisfaction to the point of a veto. The house had voted 172 to 150 to direct its conferees to hold out for the publicity. There were indications that, after this ballot, the senate youd yield and accept the proposi- tion. Conferees were particularly concern- ed as their discussions proceeded be- cause they knew passage of a bill the president would not sign simply meant. congress would sit longer. Hoover, through the house Republican leader, Representative Snell of New York, had warned that congress would be kept in session until it enacted an acceptable relief bill. Sizeable blocs jin both house and senate had the | same objective. Other representatives of the two legislative branches had gotten togeth- er on most portions of the administra- tion’s home loan bank bill but remain- ed in disagreement on the Glass rid- er which would permit currency ex- pansion of nearly a billion dollars, The last of the necessary annual appropriation bills was on the statute booxs, signed Thursday by the presi- dent.

Henry Prysky came from one of the central European coun- tries to Quebec some years ago, took. up land, cleared it and, in time, built himself a cottage. He said to himself: “Now, the only thing lacking is a wife. A good, strong girl from the old country, one who isn’t afraid of hard work.” He wrote out an advertise- ment and sent it to a newspaper in his home country. The re- sult was a deluge of applications. All the girls—except one—de- scribed their qualifications. he § could milk cows, drive a ploug! —or pull it, if need be; they could make butter, bake bread and they knew how to cook, serub and sew.

He answered it, asking for a photograph of the writer. photograph arrived ‘and fog ripe the conquest which the letter had begun. The next letter from the old country said the girl was ready to leave for Ca: at any time, but would Henry send $500 with her ticket so she could buy a little trousseau. Henry would, and did.

NORBECK MEASURE TO AID FARMER IS KILLED IN SENATE jBlame For Final Action Shuttled Back and Forth From Hoover to Garner | | Washington, July 15.—(AP)— Blame for the failure of congress to Pass a one-year emergency farm re- lief bill sponsored by Senator Nor- beck (Rep. 8. D.), was shuttled Fri- day between Speaker Garner and the threat of a presidential veto. The senate definitely killed the |measure for this session when it re- |considered its previous action in passing the bill. This requiem was sung after Speaker Garner told newspaper men President Hoover looked with dis- favor on the Norbeck plan. The speaker added: “Congress appears to be taking the attitude that it is useless to waste energy in passing a bill that is going to be vetoed.” However, Edward A. O’Neal, pres- ident of the American Farm Bureau Federation, and Ear] 0. Smith, pres- ident of the TIllinois Agricultural Association, in a later statement, laid the blame on the speaker as well as those who supported, in the senate, the motion by Bingham (Rep. Conn.), to reconsider. The O’Neil-Smith statement said Garner’s position was “inconsistent” with that of Governor Franklin D. Roosevelt who urged immediate en- actment of emergency legislation to raise price levels on staple agricul- tural commodities.” Aged N. P.

Of City Fathers Is Announced Public Hearing For 1932 Budget to Be Held by City Commission- ers at 8 P. M., July 27; Citizens Are Invited to Offer Suggestions ALL BRANCHES OF GOVERNMENT FEEL PARING KNIFE Increase Is Provided For Bond Interest and Sinking Fund; Spee cial Assessment Deficiences Ignored; New Scheme to Meet This Expense Bismarck’s total tax levy for all city purposes for the fiscal year just beginning will be $105,000, which is $30,000 or 22.2 per cent lower than the $135,000 levy for the last fiscal year, if the preliminary budget being considered by the city commissioners Friday afternoon is adopted. ; The preliminary budget submitted to the commissioners by Myron H. Atkinson, city auditor, calls for the lowest levy since 1926. The 1932 levy is $40,000 or 27.6 per cent lower than that for 1930. A public hearing for consideration of this budget before its final adoption has been arranged for the city hall at 8 p.m. July 27. Taxpayers who have suggestions for revision of the pre- liminary budget may make suggestions at this hearing. The proposed budget calls for general reductions in expenditures in all branches of the city government. The reduction for general city pur- poses is $27,000 and for the city’s share of special assessments and special assessment deficiencies $6,350. For bond interest and sinking funds, how- ever, there is a proposed increase of $3,350. The budget does not call for any levies for special assessment defic- iences. Atkinson said the commissioners have not decided just how defic- iencies which may develop next June will be cared for, but that they expect to work out a scheme for this in the near future. No Allotment for Waterworks The levy will not include allotments for the city waterworks, since the waterworks is a business and self-sustaining, Atkinson said. Salaries and wages of city employes would be reduced $10,847.10. In addition, salaries of employes of the city waterworks would be reduced $2,300, making the total $13,147.10, but the waterworks item is not included in the budget. The park board budget, prepared separately from that of the city, calls for a levy of $7,700, although expenditures of $12,000 are contem- plated. This is made possible, Atkinson said, by surpluses from former years. A public hearing for the park board budget will be held in the city hall at 7 p. m. July 27. Economies in the proposed budget are contemplated through reduc- tions in expenditures for all departments of the city’s government, build- ing inspection, street and sign painting for traffic regulation, sprinkling of streets, poor relief, sanitation, public library, recreation, conservation of health, public service enterprises, and various other minor items. An increase in the allotment for contingencies and emergencies is pro- vided for, however. Levies for the last seven years were as follows: 1926—$112,173; 1927— | $129,893; 1928—$131,995; 1929—$144,253; 1930—$145,081; 1931—$135,011; and 1932—$105,000 (proposed). A review of Atkinson’s preliminary budget, proposed at the city hall, follows: Comparisons Are Outlined 1, The total tax levy for all city purposes for the year 1932 will be $105,- 000, as against $145,000 for 1930, and $135,000 for 1931; a decrease of $40,000 or 27.6% under 1930 levy, and $30,000 or 22.2% under 1931 levy. 2, The comparative 1931 and 1932 city tax levies are: 1932 Change For general city purposes .......... $ 76,000 —$27,000 For bond interest and sinking funds . 15,850 + 3,350 For the city’s share of special assessments and special assessment deficiencies ..... 19,500 13,150 — 6,350 $135,000 $105,000 =—$30,000 | No levies are being made in 1932 for special assessment deficiencies; the item of $13,150 is to pay for only the city’s share of special assessments. 3.
