Only in the province of Zaragoza, where three were killed and 35 in- jured Saturday, was the rebellion still active. But during the night more than 20 persons were killed and several hundred were reported injured. Throughout the night and well in- to the morning troops engaged in a series of swift combats as the ex- tremists, apparently disgruntled by their loss of power in the recent par- liamentary elections, terrorized the tion lines, wrecked trains, and at- tempted to isolate the area. The situation was brought under control shortly after Premier Diego Martinez Barrios declared a “state of alarm” to exist. Leftists Disgruntled “A state of alarm” is the next thing to martial law and supersedes the ‘state of prevention” declared Sun- day which placed civil guards and other national police forces on the alert in preparation for the conven- ing of perliament Friday. The disorders were believed insti- tuted by disgruntled adhererits of the Leftist groups as the result of the parliamentary election landslide last month toward the Conservative elements in Politics. Daylight brought comparative tran- quility following a night of terrorism in the northeast. Authorities imme- diately moved to check casualties and the extent of property damage, which was believed to be large. The cabinet was called into session shortly before noon, supposedly to discuss the situation. ‘The survey of how far the disorders had spread was slow and difficult be- cause terrorists had destroyed most of the telephone lines in the areas where they operated. Among lines destroyed were the main trunk to Geneva, the trunk to Berlin, three trunks to London and all three trunks to Paris. Bombs, Firearms Used Terrorists, armed with rifles, bombs and pistols, began their devastating work shortly after the first session of the new parliament, striking first at the main communication lines. Most of the bombings and other acts of violence were committed fur- tively under cover of darkness, but open clashes between rioters and of- ficers at Logrono, Zaragoza and Bar- celona resulted in severe casualties. Because of severed communication | lines, an accurate list of the dead and wounded was not available im- mediately, but the ministry of the interior announced “death tolls were heavy,” and an extremely conserva- tive estimate, based on a parliamen- tary report, indicated that at least a Score were dead and some 300 wounded, In a night of many disorders at Barcelona, with extremists, civil Suards and soldiers participating, an unestimated number were known to have been slain. Three extremists were killed and two civil guards injured in a clash hear Barcelona, at Lueza. : Another center of heavy casualties was the town of Zuera, near Zara- goza.

D., Dec. 9.—(#)—Clif- ford and Arthur Johnson, brothers, former Minoters, were convicted in district court here Saturday on a charge of participating in the torture robbery of a farmer and his son near Karlsruhe on October 12, 1929. Clif- ford was sentenced to serve not less than eight and not more than 15 years in the penitentiary and Arthur was given a sentence of not less than five and not more than eight years. A verdict finding both the brothers guilty of the crime was returned by a jury Saturday at 9:30 a, m. It had been deliberating’ since 1:15 p. m. Friday. Benvence was immediately imposed by Judge W. J. Kneeshaw of Pem- bina, who asked the two defendants whether they had anything to say. Both replied they did not. The conviction of the two brothers adds another chapter to a criminal case which had many unusual aspects. Arthur Zimmerman, Minot, was convicted of being one of the three robbers, and served nearly four years of a 20-year sentence in the state penitentiary, before being paroled a few months ago, when Harold Hazen, alias Terry Jerome, former Minoter, essed he was one of the robbers, named the two Johnson brothers as his accomplices, and absolved Zim- \merman of connection with the crime. years in prison. serimmerman at Minot Saturday said he is hopeful he soon will be granted m. use Guests Killed By Fire in England hitchurch, Hampshire, England, oa 9.—(?)—Two house guests of Mr, and Mrs. L.

Dec. 9.—(?)—The Chamber of Commerce of the United States Saturday informed its mem- | bers that a “growing confidence, in-; spired by favorable signs of business recovery, characterizes the official at- titude in Washington.” In its regular “fortnightly sum- mary” of business affairs, the cham- ‘ber said this increased confidence was; “based on reports to the administra- | tion of trade revival in various coun- tries. increasing stimulus of various recovery measures, the effects of which are declared to be more appar- ent, and the appreciable increase in farm buying power.” “The congressional outlook, for the same reason,” it added, “appears less disturbing, improvement in the south- ern and western agricultural sections has apparently tempered somewhat the demands for radical ‘new legisla- tion, including currency inflation.

G Questioned by Charles A. Verret, assistant attorney general, Knudtson said he had only faint recollections of the transaction regarding the fi- nancing of the referendum, but re- called that in most of the conversa- tions he had with the two bureau commissioners Preckel did the talk- ing. . ‘Talked With Walker ~ Asked by Verret if he discussed the matter with R. H. Walker, third member of the bureau, and “did some cussing about Wenzel” In con- “pidn't you tell Mr. Walker that Mr. Wenzel in substance had put up an ultimatum that you share in the expense?” Verret asked. Knudtson replied, “I don't remember.” Later he said he felt he should not become “mixed up in a political deal,” but aftter consideration “I felt I ought to comply.” Knudtson, who spent several hours on the stand Friday, was on the stand all morning Saturday and was CONVICT BROTHERS (COMMERCE CHANBER “srs= saree, the minutes of the bureau's actions was kept.

In cold and consise legal phrase- ology, Miss Pickford, known to mil- {lion’s of theatregoers as “America’s sweetheart,” wrote an unhappy finale Friday to what had been considered filmdom’s most beautiful love story. Supporters of Hollywood often re- ferred to “Doug and Mary” as the answer to the question: “Do Holly- ‘wood marriages endure?” Thirteen years ago the lovely Mary told friends she was “blissfully happy.” Once she said Fairbanks was the “one great love in her life,” \but in her divorce complaint she de- scribed him as being mentally cruet to her and indifferent. She pictured him as being other than the brave, heart-storming hero of @ dozen cinema dramas on which he built a reputation as being one of the screen’s greatest swashbuckling lovers. The lovely Mary accused him of neglecting her, of having caused her embarrassment and humiliation. No Stay-at-Home Lover For her feelings and sensibilities, she charged, the globe roaming Fair- banks lacked consideration. He had what his son, Douglas Fairbanks, Jr. described as “Gypsy-foot” Miss Pick. ford claimed, and publicly announced he had no interest in life except travel. 5 “That,” she said, “destroyed the legitimate ends of matrimony.” of the earth, she complained, and was absent from home for months. “That,” Miss Pickford charged, “caused much public criticism and un- fair comment.” Prior to June, 1930, Mary traveled with him, visiting titled and royal friends in Eurgpe.

His statement follows: “We have every confidence that our petition for the finances to set up the needed plants and factories in North Dakota will be granted. Out of the @reat abundance of raw material pro- duced in North Dakota the people of jthis state must have at least the necessities of. life—food, clothing, !fuel and shelter—or they cannot longer carry on. “We go on a mission to end perm- anently the insupportable relief bur- den in Nerth Dakota.” | Governor Langer, who Townley jearlier said would lead the caravan, was here part of Friday but/ ‘left to fill speaking engagements in| Missouri.

Both tenants and land-owners must sign contracts, the bonus to be divided between them in conformity with their original ten- ant agreements. Putnam Saturday made explana- tions to clear up several points of doubt under the federal program. If no wheat has been planted this year, he said, the farmer can expect no bonus payments. However, such farmer should sign the contract nev- ertheless to become eligible under the program for bonuses in the next two years, To receive any bonus payments, | Putnam said, the farmer must have planted at least 54 per cent of his ave i i MARY PICKFORD “America’s Sweetheart” was unable to hold the attentions of her own husband and so Mary Pickford and; Douglas Fairbanks have reached the end of the romance trail, according to a divorce complaint filed Friday by Mary at Hollywood. | The above picture, taken recently,| shows Mary wearing Napoleon's jew- els, said to have been given by the famous “Corsican to Queen Maria Louisa in 1811.
