Say Alcohol-Gasoline Blending Impractical Minneapolis, May 2.—(7)—A pro- Posal to blend 10 per cent of alcohol made from farm products, with all gasoline as an aid to farmers was criticized in a report Tuesday by a University of Minnesota committee as more likely to injure than to aid jfarmers. Added cost to the consumer “gener- ally would be entirely out of line with any possible benefits to the farmers,” the report said, warning that all ,farm-relief proposals should be ex- amined carefully so that “plans adopt- ed to assist the farmer may not ac- tually handicap him.” The report estimated blended gaso- line would cost at least two cents a gallon more than the present product, —-——-* gua New Members Irk | | Old Congressmen | ‘Washington, May 2.—(#)—The breaking of long-established house rules by some ofthe 160 odd new members who are given to talking, laughing, smoking, eating and reading newspapers is irritating old-timers.

GREAT BOULDER T0 FORM CORNERSTONE ton County to Be Used in New Capitol The new cornerstone of North Da- kota’s state capitol building will be hewn from a huge boulder of native granite found about three miles east of St. Anthony on the farm of Mrs. Rose Goertel, in Morton county, ac- man of the state capitol building commission. The boulder weighs 57 tons. It is seven feet six inches high, 13 feet long, nine feet eight inches wide and has a circumference of 37 feet, nine inches. The cornerstone will weigh two tons, John M. Davis, superintendent of construction for the Lundoff- It will be five feet long, three and one-half feet high and about 20 inches thick. H. Rydnicek, Mandan stone mason, will carve the new cornerstone out of the hulk, shape and polish it. The new cornerstone is planned in compliance with a mandate of the 1933 legislature, Rishworth said. Though a ceremony in connection with the formal laying of the stone is planned, the event is at least several weeks away, Rishworth said, and de- tails of the program remain in- definite. The new stone is the second to be procured for the new capitol build- ing. The first was formally dedicat- ed last October 8 in a program in which Former Vice President Charles Curtis participated. This stone has been broken and damaged so that it 1s unfit for use, Rishworth said. The box of historical material which was inserted in this first stone, though reported to have “disappear- ed mysteriously,” is under lock and key in the state historical society vault, according to Supreme Court 1 Justice L, E. Birdzell, one of the |committee in charge of its safe- | keeping. It is probable that this box of | material, as well as a box of addi- | tional material, will be included in the box to go into the new stone when it is formally laid, Rishworth said. Stone work on the new capitol, which has been iz al rapid rate, hit a snag Tuesday, Rish- worth said, due to the failure of cer- tain window stone to arrive. Other work was going ahead on the structure, however, he said. 12 Women’s Clubs At District Court Jamestown, N. D.
