ad aa Bera eee o be ‘HE BISMARCK TRIBUNE, MONDAY, DECEMBER 5, 1932 ALLOTMENT SY STEM APPROVED BY O'NEAL IN ANNUAL MESSAGE Farm Federation President Op- timistic Over President- Elect’s Attitude Chicago, Dec. §.—(}—President Ed- ward A. O'Neal of the American farm bureau federation Monday approved the principle of the domestic allot- ment plan for farm relief. As part of a legislative program ad- vocated at the farm bureau's 14th an- nual convention, O'Neal said the agri- cultural marketing act “must be amended to provide for the disposal of that part of our staple commodi- ties required for domestic consump- tion at a price which will reflect back to the farmer the benefit of the pro- tective tariff.” Speaking at the time of the open- ing of the short session of congress, O'Neal said: “The brightest spot in the present Picture is the fact that the president- elect of the United States has pledged that agricultural relief will be given immediate attention by his adminis- tration.” The farm bureau head stood firm in his belief in the equalization fee plan for farm relief. He declared the organization to be “open-minded, willing to support any plan which was economically sound” and designed to raise prices by con- trolling surpluses. He approved the general theory of the domestic al- lotment, although it was not mention- ed specifically by name. Would Control Production As essential parts of the plan, O'Neal advocated annual estimates of | the percentages of the staple crops needed for domestic consumption, | control of production by alloting to each state the amount of commodities which will be permitted under the plan and levying of an excise tax of not less than the amount of the tariff. The government would levy the ex- cise tax, he said, when the commodi- ties are processed by millers or simi- lar agencies. Under the plan, this tax money would go back to farmers oper- ating under the specific allotments of permitted production. O'Neal said the farm bureau has been working with leaders of other farm organizations and the major cooperative associations “in formulat- ing a program which we are confident will enjoy the united support of all farm groups.” His other proposals included: Remonetization of silver and reduc- tion from 23.22 to 16 grains the weight of gold behind the dollar. Reorganization of the department of agriculture and coordination of all agencies sering the farmer. Higher tariffs on oils, fats, jute and other commodities from abroad which can be substituted for home- grown products.” Readjustment to bring about “true ee~<ity between industrial and agri- cultural tariffs.” Independence for the Philippines. Backs Refinancing Plan Refinancing of mortgages by “a federal land mortgage corporation with debenturable assets extending to 8 possible five billions of dollars.” Retirement of marginal farm lands, possibly financed by a billion-dollar federal fund. Consistent reduction of public ex- penditures and equal distribution of taxation. Opposition to war debt cancella- tion unless trade agreements can be obtained to give foreign markets for American farm produce. Amendment of the agricultural marketing act to make it fully effec- tive in promoting farm cooperatives. Control of speculation in basic farm trops. Regulation of public service corpor- ations. Reorganization and coordination of farm credit agencies. CONSTIPATED 30 YEARS AIDED BY OLD REMEDY “For thirty years I had constipa- tion. Souring food from stomach choked me.

WOULD CUT PENALTY FOR CORPORATIONS Secretary of State Says Present Penalty Is ‘Out of Proportion’ Recommendation that the penalty paid by corporations who have failed) to file their annual corporate reports! be reduced is made by Secretary of | State Robert Byrne in his biennial) Teport. The present penalty imposed by law was termed “greatly out of proportion to the delinquency involved.” Under the statutes a penalty of $5 accrues monthly after July 31, pay- able, if there is no reinstatement, un- til six months after cancellation of | the corporation, when this penalty is} increased to $15. In case of rein- statement of a corporation the reg- ular corporate report fee of $2.50 also| must be paid for each year since can- cellation. “Cost of reinstatement very plainly runs rapdily into high figures if for one reason or another corporate offi- cers are ignorant of the fact that their corporation has been cancelled and reinstatement is not effected for @ number of years afterwards,” the report said. “In most instances fail- ure to file the annual corporate re- port is due to oversight, lack of fa- miliarity with statutory requirements, misplacement of blanks, changes in corporate officers, etc., and once a corporation is cancelled years may jelapse before the fact of its deling- those interested in it. “It appears to us that a penalty of! one dollar, payable Aug. 1 and until cancellation Oct. 1, to be increased at that time to a maximum penalty of | $5, will be amply sufficient.” Expect Cut Rates to Be Effective Jan. 6 Reduced carload rates on butter and eggs, with a minimum weight of 20,000 pounds, are expected to be- come effective on all railroads serv- ing North Dakota Jan. 6, 1933, the North Dakota railroad commission announced Monday. ‘The Milwaukee railroad has pub- ; lished the reduced rates to Chi- cago and Milwaukee from stations on the railroad in North Dakota east of the Missouri river, and also from} stations on the Midland Continental | railroad. The reductions from the former rate, with the 20,000-pound minimum, average about 10 per cent, and the reductions from the former rate, with a 25,000-pound minimum, ing to E. M. Hendricks, traffic expert for the state commission. The reductions were established following negotiations conducted with | the carriers by the North Dakota commission, and other railroads serv- ing the state are preparing similar | tariffs, to become effective Jan. 6, commission officials said. Repeal Prohibition by 35,270 Votes in State] The initiated constitutional amend- ment to repeal the prohibition pro- vision in the North Dakota constitu- tion was adopted at the Nov. 8 elec- tion by a majority of 35,270, accord- ing to complete unofficial returns announced Monday by the secretary of state's office. The vote was 134,667 for repeal and} 99,397 against. Voters rejected the proposal for a three-year partial moratorium on} debts and taxes by a margin of 38,927 votes, with 141,304 against the meas- ure, and 102,377 in favor. The proposal to permit crop mort- gages was defeated by a margin of 12,143, The vote was 123,258 against, and 111,115 in favor.

Fenders are low and broad and {mounted with radiator and headlamps 'so that frame distortion will not be |transmitted to those units. Radiator {shells are finished in duco and hoods lare long, emphasized by a tapering, chromium-plated hood hinge. The bodies are 2% inches lower than formerly without sacrificing headroom. The backward slope of the windshield harmonizes with the icurved roofline that arches over the bodies and descends, in two graceful reverse curves, into the windstream rear contour. Attention to the details of finish, design and equipment which is char- acteristic of Buick reaches new heights in the 1933 product. Cow! pockets, vanity cases, cigar lighters, ash trays and similar accounterments are all located in the right places and are of the right size. Comfort has been built into the cars, not merely added here and there, and unusual attention has been given to the ease and comfort of the driver with a view to making long trips an exhilirating experience rather than a task. This attitude also dominates the mechanical specifications which in- clude a straight-elght, valve-in-head motor of greater power and smooth- ness, new type of headlights designed to make night-driving easier, easier steering and similar improvements. The individually controlled, no- draft ventilation system is accom- plished by splitting vertically the glass in the front door windows of all closed models and the rear quarter windows in the four-door sedans. The |front portions of the windows do not lraise or lower but swing on a pivot, permitting a wide variation of venti- lation and control of air streams. The two sections in the front windows are weatherproofed by means of an alum- inum slot when the rear sections are raised and the sections of the rear We fas: a“ Splitting” Headaches she learned why she was always Ontil Wectabie 2nd found out about WR Tablets (Nature’s Remedy).

Coxey, mayor of Massillon, Ohio. Coxey brought with him the mone- tary plan that he put before the last session of congress calling for pay- ment of the war debts in specially | printed currency which the United| States would accept and circulate in! this country. | Cutting said he and Roosevelt cov- | ered a wide range of legislative sub- jects, including farm relief, refores- tation and Indian bureau affairs in their conference.
