For this is the 13th anniversary, said Franklyn Hobbs, Chicago eco- nomist, of the start of the recent great price decline. And the three precious price decline Periods as far back as the American Revolution have lasted around 13 years each, he asserted. ‘The last period of falling values for all the raw materials which go to make up modern commerce and in- fae began, Hobbs: said, May 5, It started that day with a slightly noticed drop in sugar quotations. Sugar fell five cents a pound within @ week. s Other raw materials followed. suit and cortinued to recede from post War valuations, Hobbs said, untit wheat quotations reached lows not touched since the middle ages in Eng- land. Other grains rivalled wheat’s Performance. Tin, copper, livestock, coffee, rubber, and all the other in- Gustrially-used raw products reached ‘dottom figures unplumbed in modern times.

D. LEGIONNAIRES BEHIND ROOSEVELT, |, WILLIAMS DECLARES Do Believe, However, Adminis- tration Has Cut Veteran Pay Too Much Fargo, N. D., May 5.—(?)—Back in Fargo after a 19-day swing through North Dakota in which departmental officers of the American Legion ad- dressed former servicemen, Jack Wil- liams, state adjutant declared Fri- day, abundant rain fall, rising wheat prices and general ideal seeding con- ditions had buoyed spirits of the state to a high pitch. Dr. H. 8. Kredler of Wahpeton, state commander, and T. O. Kraabel, veteran's service commissioner, and Williams made the tour, which in- cluded addresses to 12 different meet- ings and a conference with Williston Legion officers on the state conven- tion July 10 and 11 in Williston. The meetings were described by Williams as a means of “educating” former service men and the North Da- kota public on the newly-enacted national economy bill which reduced standing exists on the reduced money available for aid in world war soldiers. Clearing up another misconception, Williams explained the Legion offic- jals were not attacking President Roosevelt. “Rather”, he said, “we pointed out to the district gatherings that the reeras has suffered an unfair reduc- tion. “We carried this message through- out North Dakota. We noted a shift- ing of sentiment to the veterans. That was our objective. We must get this change in viewpoint for the veteran pelare congress and President Roose- velt. “The Legion is for Roosevelt. We agreed to his necessity for reducing expenditures. But the extent to which the reduction was carried at the ex- pense of the veterans was beyond our conception. There must be re-adjust- ments. We feel that those re-ad- justments will be made by the presi- dent and by Congress when they dis- cover: the wrong done the former sold- lers.” Hazen Club Stages Child Health Day; Dr. Fannie Dunn Quain, president of the North Dakota Tuberculosis association, and Miss Helen Katen, executive secretary for the organiza- tion, both of Bismarck, were the Speakers at a Child Health Day stag- ed at Hazen Thursday under the aus- Pices of the Hazen Women’s club. Members of the Beulah Women’s club and the Zap Women’s Civic club were special guests for the occasion. Approximately 300 parents and children were in attendance at the afternoon session, at which Miss Kat- en showed motion pictures of Camp Grassick, fresh air camp for under- par children at Lake Isabel near Dawson. She described activities and camp, giving figures to show the average gain in weight. Mrs. Quain spoke on “Safeguarding Our Children” at the evening meet- ing, when about 200 adults attended. Miss Katen gave a second showing of her Camp Grassick movies and there band from the city school. A silver collection was taken and the sum donated to the free bed fand for the camp.

RR RO N.D. A.C. Soldier | Sham Battle Victim Fargo, N. D., May 5.—(P)—It was only a make-believe war but one soldier was painfully hurt and taken to a hospital. The place was the athletic field at the N. D. A. C. The time was early Friday morning, the occas- ion was combat exercise for the R. O. T. C. candidates of the school. Carson Noecker, Valley City, freshman in the school of educa- tion, was supposed to get shot in this combat exercise, naturally he was to fall down dead. Just that and nothing more. The shot. Noecker fell down like a dead man. Blood leaked through his pants leg at the knee. Fellow soldiers ran to him. He ne fallen on a broken pop bot- tle. In St. Luke’s hospital the at- tending physician found he had cut a tendon below the knee. His condition was reported satis- factory.

Shipley said that while 10,000 sig- natures is sufficient to bring about a vote on the proposed measure at the next scheduled statewide election, the association seeks to present an overwhelming number ‘of signers in support of its drive for a special election which they are urging the governor to call.

Each petition bore 130 names. Officers announced that 201 requests received shortly afterward for petitions.
