om 4 SEVEN MEMBERS OF ~ LGHTSHIP'S CREW KILLED IN COLLISIO Mighty Prow of Ocean Liner Rips Through Hull of Little Guardian Craft New York, May 16.—(7)—Only four members of tre Nantucket lightship's crew Of 11 lived to tell Wednesday of the fog-bound crash that sent the lit- tle sentinel craft to the bottom of the sea, The mighty prow of the White Star Liner Olympic ripped through the steel lightship off the Massachusetts coast Tuesday. The small vessel sank quickly. The liner put out lifeboats and res- cued seven of the lightship’s crew, but three of them died shortly after- ward in the ship's hospital. The four missing men were given up for dead. The four survivors, too ill to talk much about the disaster, were brought te New York Wednesday aboard the Olympic. They were suffering from shock: The three who died after rescue were: W. W. Perry, engineer, Reading, Mass.; A. Monteiro, cook, New Bed- ford, Mass.; J. F. Richmond, oiler, Boston, The missing men are: I. Pina, cook, N. S. Rodricques. sea- man; J. Portes, seaman, and E. B. George, seaman, all of New Bedford. The survivors are: Captain Among Rescued Capt. George W. Braithwaite, Cam- bridge, Mass.; C. E. Mosher, first offi- cer, New Bedford; L. U. Roberts, oiler, Boston, and J. 8. Perry, radio oper- ator, Provincetown, Mass. Captain Braithwaite suffered se- vere head injuries and was uncon- ecious when rescued. His first request after regaining consciousness was for @ cigaret. “This is my first since the war,” he said as he lighted it. He was not told that seven mem- bers of his crew had perished. “It's lucky,” he said. “that we had our life preservers on.” The crash occurred ai 10:06 a. m. (EST) in the treacherous Nantucket shoals, one of the Atlantic's loneliest spots. Proceeding through a thick fog, the) Olympic was blowing her fog horn frequently. Then there came a faint ‘last from another horn It was that of the lightship, straight ahead. Changed Course Tee Late The Olympic swerved from her course, but it was too late. The giant ‘ner struck the Nantucket amidships. Captain Braithwaite was in his quarters, reading, when the Olympic; approached. | “I rushed on deck,” he related “When I saw the Olympic she was porting her helm, but I knew it would be too late. remember struggling in the wate! then nothing.” Capt. W. J. Binks of the Olympic wirelessed the coast guard immediate- ly after the accident and put out two lifeboats and a motorboat for the Nantucket's crew, whose cries could be heard through the fog. ‘The department of commerce at ‘Washington, investigating the disaster, suggested that possibly the Nantucket | was a victim of its own radio beam. Radio beams of the lightship were so accurate, it was pointed out, that a few weeks ago a steamer following She struck us hard. I} THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE.

Congregationalists In Session at Beach Beach, N. D., May 16.—(#)—Dele- gates and pastors to the annual Con- gregational state conference went in- to a business session Wednesday with reports and formal organization. Rey. Clayton 8. Rice of Billings, Mont., addressed the group Wednes- cay morning. The conference sermon was given by Rev. R. 8. Jones of Vel- va. Rev. D. C. Schelbe of Williston! conducted the holy communion. The conference opened Tuesday night under the chairmanship of Moderator Rev. W. Murray Allan of Grand Forks. Rev. Glen Lindley of Fargo was in charge of the devotions. |Grand Forks Man Is Pardon Board Member Max Robinovitz of Grand Forks has been named by Governor William Langer to succeed R. N. Davies of Grand Forks as a member of the state Pardon board. Davies resigned be- cause of the press of other business. The board is in session here with Judge W. L. Nuessle of the state supreme court substituting for Chief Justice A. G. Burr, ex-officio mem- ber, who is out ef the city. Other members are Governor Langer, chair- man, Attorney General P. O. Sathre, and Ole Kittelson of Dunn Center. More than 30 of 120 applications on the bd&rd’s calendar have been con- sidered since the session opened Mon- day. Indications are that meetings will continue several days. The ap- Plications are chiefly of a routine na- ture. Thousands their Bow by taking this Can constipation safely be relieved? “Yes!” say medical men. “Yes!” say the many thousands who have followed their advice and know. You are not likely to cure your constipation with salts, pills, tablets or any of the habit-forming cathar- tics. But you can safely relieve this condition by gentle regulation with a suitable liquid laxative. THE LIQUID TEST: First: select a properly prepared liquid laxative. Second: take the dose you find suited to your system. Third: gradually reduce the dose until bowels are moving of their own accord. Simple, isn’t it? And it works! The right liquid laxative brings thorough bowel action without using force. An approved liquid laxative (one which is most widely used for both adults and children) is Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin. It is a doctor's prescription, and perfectly safe. Its laxative action is based on senna, a natural laxative; the dose can be measured, and the have Ended el Worries advicel action thus regulated ¢o suit your individual need. If there are children in your household, don’t give them any fad form of laxative, but use a health- ful, helpful preparation like Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin. Its very taste will tell you it is wholesome, and agreeable to the stomach. De- lightful taste, and delightful action; there is no discomfort at the time, or after. Ask your druggist for Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin, all ready to take. A Frank Statement Concerning Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin We believe the use of pills and tablets containing mineral drugs is rapidly giv- ing way to senile regulation of the bowels with a liquid laxative. We believe Dr, Caldwell’s original prescription of fresh herbs, pure pepsin, and senna is the ideal family laxative. And we know it is a safe preparation for children and expectant mothers because it does not cause bowel strain or irritate the kidneys. i “High” and south portions tonight and along Lake es Thursday.

DISAGREES WITH US, Dickinson, N. D., May 4, 1934. Editor Tribune: ‘Your editorial of May ist, “Are the Radicals Slipping?” Forgetting yester- day when the Raw Deal held sway, editorials are springing up here and there hinting that the brain trust are a bunch of radicals and scrapping the constitution, but well knowing that while that sacred cocument has existed all the time, political and economic crimes have increased with- out any of those conservative defend- ers of the constitution ever raising their volce to remedy existing evils or bring about reforms. The old con- Servatives are always so concerned cbout the constitution, which in our national life is similar to the bible for our every day life. A splendid gd conduct but too often vio- lated. The constitution never said any- thing about monopolies, or anti-trust laws, or sweat shops but the greed of man has fed fat on those evils. The courts have pronounced “unconstitu- tional” so many laws aimed at reform that the cunning and ingenuity of man through the legal subterfuges ‘have made it a buffer for those who put property rights above those of human rights. The interpretation of the Constitution to meet conditions is shown by the recent decision of the Supreme Court in upholding the Min- nesota Moratorium, which, if the or- thodox conservatives had had the political advantage that existed a few years ago, would not have gotten to first base but thrown out as “impair- ment to contracts.” Then you conclude, “The nation will rejoice if such men as Hull and Glass can recapture the Democratic party from the trusters or “busters”. Just how an editor can make such a statement in face of present facts is strange. Glass and Hull had their day, but belong to that conservative class that appeared in the past quite content as long as things did not blow up and when a far sighted statesman might have thrown out a warning to the country of impending danger, but three administrations, Harding, Coolidge and Hoover, were ideal to the conservatives, an atmos- phere where they were well satisfied. Reviewing the outcome of those administrations, we fmd that the country has labeled it the Raw Deal, and now that new engineers must take charge of the New Deal we The long expected warm wave be- ginning April 27 brought in consider- able numbers of new birds, but the high temperatures and dust storms were far from conducive to the most Pleasant or successful observations. The writer found a number of jun- coes and a few tree sparrows still about April 28, none of them at all on the next day, but a few juncoes again about May 1. New birds noted were: April 28, chipping sparrow, gambel sparrow and Savanna sparrow; April 29, Lincoln sparrow, ruby-crowned kinglet, myrtle and orange crowned warblers, cowbird; April 30, white throated, Harris, swamp and clay-col- ored sparrow. These dates are close to the aver- age for the various species, some lit- tle ahead, some a little behind. Two or three days of unusually warm weather are always likely to have the effect of pushing along a considerable group of birds. The writer has given Particular attention to the Harris sparrow, @ conspicuous species which is common during migration. It is one of the largest and at NORTH DAKOTA BIRD NOTES | By 0. A. STEVENS North Dakota Agricultural College throat. The writer's average date for its arrival is May 8. Only once be- !fore has he noted them in April and that was April 29, 1932. There was no question about their arrival this year because two were trapped and j banded April 30 and four more May j1. Glen Berner, Jamestown, had jbanded one bird April 2, but that was no doubt an individual which had wandered off with a flock of tree sparrows. The white-throated sparrows were four days behind the writer's average date, but a number of them were seen instead of the one or two birds which often appear a few days in ad- vance of others. These birds were observed by other people in the Fargo vicinity a day or two earlier, so they should be considered to have arzived on schedule time. They were noted at Fairmount April 28, Minot May 1. peared, but only a few at the present writing. The writer saw his first myrtle April 29, but one was seen along the Red river by Ralph Woolsey about 10 days earlier. This species was seen at Wilton April 28, Minot A few of the warblers have ap-/ad. _ cosncu cee SEES ENTITIES Sri cenI come Cleveland Motorists Again Get Gasoline Cleveland, May 16. — (#) — The “closed” signs were thrown away to- day at Cleveland filling stations and once more gasoline sloshed into auto- mobiles tank of s quarter of a mil- jon drivers. - ‘The strike, lasting almost a month, of 2,000 union filling station attend- ants was at an end through a truce plan presented by Secretary Ickes, administrator of the oll code, and Dr. W.

For, were it not for the wheat sur- plus, were it not for the surplus of cther farm products, we very much fear that many of us would go hun- &ry and others would starve to death.
