T HE BISMARCK TRIBUNE, WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 30, 1933 Karlson 103, Ben Cave 102 and Mey- RAN TTI) Aj faa SSS 369 WOMEN NAMED POSTOFFICE HEADS SINCE LAST MARCH | Miss Nellie Dougherty of Minot, N. D., Was First Feminist Appointed | ‘Washington, Aug. 30.—(#)—Since | ‘Miss Nellie Dougherty was named by | the new Roosevelt administration last | March as acting postmaster of Minot, | N. D., 369 women have been given charge of the U. S. mails in their home towns. They're not “post mistresses,” postal officials stress. Each one has the same title a man would have on the job—“pastmaster” with the prefix “acting” because all are recess ap- pointments, subject to confirmation by the next congress. In compiling the total, the post office department also established that fourteen of the 369 have been appointed to head first class postof- fices. Expresses Satisfaction Miss Lavinia Engle, one of the wom- en leaders of the Democratic cam- Paign, expressed keen satisfaction in the progress of this particular form of political recognition for women. “It shows that party leaders are aware of the hard work that is being done by women in their own commun- ities,” she said. “I expect a good many more such appointments.” Mrs. Hattie Caraway, lone feminine senator, who is said to get more mail trom “back home” than any other Senator, now can boast a woman post- master in her home city of Jones- boro, Ark. And Parkersburg, W. Va., is point- ed to as a shining example of recog- nizing a woman of outstanding ability with a postmastership. Out-Distances Men Mrs. Anna Stevenson, with wide business experience in a lumber firm, @ leader in state politics ever since ‘women got the vote, long-time trea- surer of the Democratic county ex- ecutive committee, was the postmaster picked. A whole bevy of male com- petitors are said to have admitted she was best qualified for the job. At Bluefield, W. Va., another first class postoffice, Mrs. Stella M. Bivens was appointed, in recognition of the political work done by her husband, eli was slated for the position but The other first class postoffices to which women have been appointed since March 4 include: Culver City, Cal.; Redondo Beach, Cal.; Saint Charles, Ill.; Anderson, Ind.; Ashland, Ky.; Saint Joseph, Mich.; Sault Sainte Marie, Mich.; Jefferson City, se Roswell, N. Mex.; and Lancaster, io. _Droughty Conditions Persist Through N. D. Although light to moderate scat- tered showers occurred at the begin- ning of the week, general droughty conditions continue in practically all parts of the state, O. W. Roberts, fed- eral meteorologist here, said Wednes- day in his weekly crop summary. Threshing made excellent progress but with poor to fair yields, Roberts said. Corn was reported generally advanced beyond damage from frost ‘but much is being cut for fodder andj much will be pastured. Flax harves is general, he said. Rain is needed in all sections for t fall feed, and due to dryness little; fall plowing is being done, according to Roberts. Handcuffed Criminal Escapes From Train Miles City, Mont., Aug. 30.—(?)— ‘The elusive “Whitey” Lewis, hand- cuffs and leg irons attached, was the object of a wide-spread search in this section of Montana Wednesday after a sensationa! leap from a train win- dow sans clothing and adorned only with a blanket. Lewis, wanted throughout the mid- dlewest and west, was being conduct- vd from Milwaukee to McNeill’s Island to serve eight years for passing frau- dulent money orders when he slipped trom his berth and disappeared. The escape was believed to have been effected somewhere between Miles City end Harlowton. Mexico normally produces about 115,000,000 barrels of oil annually. | bs It looks for all the world as if t the lotus thrives wild. to the surface in the river Nile to pick herself a bouquet. those are real lotus blossoms, fit to flatter Cleopatra. truth is Miss Lucille Dehnhardt is gathering the rare blossoms in the Maumee river near Toledo, O., only place in the U.

In view of three judges, Nuessle, Burr and Birdzell, coming up for reelec- tion, at the next year’s election, the two-year term that a judge usually serves as chief justice is being divided among the three. | Election of judges of the supreme court will be under the new constitu- tional amendment which provides for |10-year terms. However, at the 1934 election, the judge reciving the largest vote will be given the 10-year term, the next highest, eight years, and the third highest six years. Thereafter one judge will be elected jevery two years for a 10-year term. || Deer Won't Trust Man-Made Bridge | oe | ley sieabias he Watkins Glen, N. Y., Aug. 30.— (®)—A deer trapped on a narrow ledge in Watkins Glen state park Wednesday spurned the man made bridge across the narrow gorge which apparently was its ; Only way to freedom. The bridge, 25 feet long and five feet wide,. was completed late ‘Tuesday, but the big buck, a cap- tive on the shelf five days, refused to try it. Below the bridge is a narrow gorge 200 feet deep, into which the deer’s mate fell to death several days ago. So far all the engineering skill and technical knowledge of the park authorities and the state conservation department have failed to devise a means of free- ing the animal, whose only food and drink has been foliage grow- ing from the rocky walls and dew which has come during the night. The buck left untouched the sweet corn’ and water lowered to it. Park officials think the buck and its mate climbed the shelf to escape dogs. 8 BISMARCK TRIBUNE PATTERNS Make This Model at Home SENSIBLE SCHOOL RIG PATTERN 1534 by hone slams Tog the young girl going toschool smartly but wisely!

S. and Nippon Ships Steam Toward Foochow As Red Menace Flares’ Foochow, Fukien Province, China, Aug. 30.—(#)—American and Japanese warships steamed towards this city Wednesday to protect nationals of those two countries from an increas- ing red menace. As a result of the Communists’ swift incursion into North Fukien and their capture of Yenping, a number of American missionaries fled here and others in nearby Kienning were en- dangered, U. 8. consular authorities asked the State department to send ships of the Asiatic fleet to protect the American colony. A Washington Dispatch said an American warship had been ordered to proceed to Foochow. The gunboats Tulsa and Sacramento were at Swa- tow and Hong Kong, only a_ short Steaming distance from Foochow. Two Japanese destroyers and one cruiser were enroute to protect the large Japanese colony and property interests here. A dispatch from Nanchang said General Chiag Kai-Shek, leader of an anti-Communist expeditionary force with headquarters there, announced 100,000 Mexican dollars would be paid for the head of either Chu Teh or Mao Chetung, the principal Com- munist leaders who for weeks have been causing the government endless trouble. All foreigners were said to have evacuated Yenping before the invaders | entered it. Mandan Expects 60 In Tennis Tourney At least 60 North Dakota tennis players representing the state’s rank- ing courtmen are expected for the annual Missouri Slope tournament at Mandan Sept. 2 and 3, officers of the Mandan Tennis club, sponsor of the event, said Wednesday. While the tourney is primarily a Slope event, entries also were re- ceived last year from Minot, Grand Forks, Fargo, Jamestown, Valley City and Bismarck. Officials expect the entries from over the state to eclipse the 1932 record of 50 players. Lester McLean, Bismarck, holds the men’s singles title and Helen Gru- challa of Jamestown is the women’s singles titleholder. Doubles titles are held by Robert Larson, Bismarck, and William Russell, Mandan, and by the sisters, Helen and Harriet Gru- challa, Jamestown. Men’s and women's singles and doubles events and a consolidation bracket will make up the tournament. Entries close Friday, according to W. P. Baird, secretary of the club. Draw- ings for all matches in each division are set for Friday night. Play in all divisions starts Satur- day morning and finals are set for Sunday afternoon. Harvesting Proceeds Rapidly in Provinces Ottawa, Ont., Aug. 30.—()—Despite delays caused by rains during the last week, harvesting in the Prairie Prov- inces has made good progress during the last two weeks, said a crop report issued Wednesday by the dominion bureau of statistics. “Threshing now is completed in the earliest districts in Manitoba and is under way in the northern section of the province,” the report declared. “Good progress has been made in harvesting crops in southern and cen- tral areas of Saskatchewan and Al- berta. Cutting is commencing in northern Alberta and the Peace river district and will be general this week.” Out-turns are fair to good in the northern districts but very poor over wide areas in southern Manitoba. CARD OF THANKS We take this opportunity to thank our kind friends and neighbors for their sympathy and assistance dur- ing our recent bereavement. We wish to especially thank the Bur- leigh County Pioneers, Spanish- American War Auxiliary, I. O. O. F., Rebekah Lodge, Ladies’ Auxil- jary and the P. M. I. O. O. F. for the beautiful floral offerings and sympathy. MRS. JOHN POLLOCK, ROBERT POLLOCK, WILLIAM POLLOCK, EVELYN DANLEY, ROSE SCHARNOWSKE, MAY FORS PROJECT EMPLOYING 80 HELD UP BY LACK OF TRANSPORTATION Work At Lincoln Postponed Be- cause There Are No Funds to Get Men on Job ; A project that would employ 80 men for three months at 40 cents an hour as being held up for lack of funds with which to furnish the laborers transportation, Secretary R. A. Kin- zer of the state emergency relief com- mittee said Wednesday. The project would include building roads, repairing corrals and erecting some buildings at Fort Lincoln. Kin- zer has received orders to put the men; to work and Col. George W. Harris,: commandant at Fort Lincoln, also has received orders from the war de- partment to have the work done. The problem facing both Kinzer and Col. Harris is how to get the men to the job. The state relief commit- tee has no money to furnish transpor- tation to the men and the army is without funds for that purpose. The national relief administration has suggested that Kinzer get the money from Burleigh county, but the county is without funds, having spent all its money for relief work. Kinzer also has been urged to have trucks and cars donated by business houses for the purpose of transport- ing the men to the fort, but that is out of the question, in his opinion. The men would be paid 40 an hour, payable in relief orders, and, accord- ing to the first orders received by Kinzer, the army was to furnish the transportation. Relief List Folks Would Help Selves Launching of a new effort to help themselves was announced Wednesday by a group of persons on Burleigh county’s unemployed list. ‘The group has obtained the use of room 104 in the Nicola building and has installed several sewing machines. They are asking for donations of old clothes snd school books with the idea of repairing the clothes for use and distributing the books among children whose parents will be unable to buy them this fall. Anyone with either books or old clothes to donate is asked to phone 231 or to call at room 104, Nicola building. Miners Must Provide Safety Regulations Operators of underground coal mines in North Dakota must proVide each mine employe with a set of safe- ty rules and regulations under a resa- lution adopted by the workmen’s compensation bureau. The resolution, to become effective Oct. 1, requires employes to apply the safety rules. Failure of mine owners to comply with the resolution would make them subject to a penalty under the workmen's compensation act. Workmen must furnish receipts on delivery of safety rules and regula- tions, the receipts to be subject to in- spection by representatives of the workmen's compensation bureau, the mine inspector's office, and the Lig- nite Operators’ association. U. S. Buys 550,000 | Pigs in Six Days Washington, Aug. 30.—()—Govern- ment purchases during the first six days of operation of the emergency hog marketing program brought in 550,000 pigs and sows. | In all the government contemplates purchase of 4,000,000 pigs weighing up to 100 pounds and 1,000,000 sows soon to farrow in an effort to reduce swine numbers in line with this year's shortage of feed. Beginning Wednesday, all of the au- thorized processing points will be pay- ing premium prices for the pigs and sows, which, however, must be shipped on permit in order to avoid congestion at the processi.g points. Permission to ship may be obtained by farmers from representatives of authorized processors or commissioned agencies operating at the processing Points and also through county ex- tension agents and local livestock buyers, including cooperative associa- tions. 1 ° Film Star’s Friend | Film Sti o- > Noted Cornet Soloist | Deputy Bandmaster George Weir, cornet soloist of the Winnipeg Cita- del band which will play in Bismarck Sunday afternoon and evening, Sept. 3, is shown above.

Y., Aug. 30.—()— —A minister in LaJolla, Cal., spoke the words which made his daughter, Vevah Wyer Mears, and James M. Leonard man and wife as they stood in a room in the house here in which Leonard was born. Miss Mears, Leonard and the 10 persons who witnessed the cere- mony wore head sets to listen to the Rev.

Miss Mears and Leonard are residents of New York, where Leonard is general service supervisor of the long lines department, American Telephone and Teelgraph company. The father was unable to come East and they could not go West. Leonard finally got the consent of Mrs. Clara Perkins to permit the wedding in the house where Leon- ard was born and so the couple with their attendants and guests came here.

Frank Persons of the office of the secre- tary of labor, who has charge of the conservation work, informing him of the president’s decision. While the president has authorized the enrollment of the men for an ad- ditional six-month period, he makes an appeal to every enrolled man to find a job if it is possible either through his own efforts, the efforts of friends, family or any other agen- cy. The president does not want them to displate men who are now em- ployed but he urges them to find Jobs on new work if it is at all pos- sible. If the men now enrolled cannot find other work they can enroll for another six months. The president's idea, the communication said, is to give as many people as possible an opportunity to secure employment. Farm Mortgage Rush Is Taxing Appraisers Washington, Aug. 30.—()—The rush of farmers seeking aid under the emergency farm mortgage act is so great that most federal land banks are offering to return application fees so farmers can use the money until an appraiser is available. The farm credit administration made this statement Wednesday in announcing that while more than 1,200 trained appraisers are in the dle present business promptly. said July applications alone exceed- ed those of 1931 plus 1932 and the first five months of 1933. Henry Morgenthau, Jr., governor of the credit administration, said first attention still was being given emer- gency cases—cases where the finan- cial situation of the farmer is such that “urgent action” is required. Morgenthau said that when the emergency act was passed on May 12, the field force of 210 men was sufficient to care for the relatively small number of applications.
