TECHNICAL PHASES OF HUGE TREE BELT BEING WORKED OUT Dr. Raphael Zon Explains Ten- tative Plans for Great Plains Project St. Paul, Aug. 14—(#)—Dr. Raphael Zon, director of the Great Lakes For- estry Experiment Station, and Carlos G. Bates, senior culturist at the sta- tion Tuesday began the job of work- ing out the technical phases of the $75,000,000 shelterbelt project at Uni. versity Farm here. The plan is to plant a belt of trees from the Canadian border to Texas in an effort to mitigate the hot winds|‘t which ravaged those sections in the past few months. Dr. Zon said he hhad been told the president conceived the plan once while he was riding by train across a treeless Texas plain. From two and half million to three million trees are expected to be re- quired for the project, Zon said. “Remember,” he admonished, “we are not guaranteeing anything. The shelterbelt will, we hope, mitigate the effects of the searing winds of the great plains area.” He said he expect- ed it would be 25 years before its first effects could be seen. The shelterbelt will be 100 miles wide, comprised of windbreaks 100 feet wide with each strip of trees a mile from the next. Trees suitable to each state will be planted, Mr. Gates said, with tentative selections for North Dakota including green ash, native elm, cottonwood, hackberry, red cedar and bur oak, Each group of trees will be enclos- ed by a wire fence. Ne soon will be launched by the government, Dr. Zon said, for acquisition of necessary land. The government expects many landowners will donate land in view of later bene- fits.

No arrests were made. Simultaneously, the employers’ advisory committee re- plied to the strikers’ rejection of the latest peace plan. Concerning strikers’ objections to the reinstatement provisions the em- Ployers said “this looks as though the strike leaders anticipate the employ- ers have a good reason to protest re- turn of some of the men,” and added: “We think the rejection of these proposals which were accepted as fair by the mediators confirms the em. ployers’ contention the strike leaders do not want to settle the strike. They are strengthened in their position by the governor's substitution of military restrictions for picketing and are hold- ing out in the subjection of the public to inconvenience in the hope they can have their own way Tegardless of who suffers.” Swimming Meet Date Moved to Wednesday The annual swimming meet, sched- the condition of the tne and cleaning of and cle: forward Tuesd the event, marek youths are expected to ticipate in the contests which at 7:30 p. m.

Edward J. Ramsey, New York shoe mauufacturer, answering NRA’s com- plaint that he was violating the shoe code by granting excess discounts, said congress violated the constitu- tion in delegating legislative powers to the executive. ‘The latter he added, delegates legis- lative powers “to an appointed agent known and designated as the admin. istrator, constituting a dictatorial form of government never intended by the framers of the constitution.” Ramsey charged the provision in the code relating to discounts was group of shoe manufacturers of which he was a member. He said the code so changed has no binding effect and is not, as a matter of law, the stand. ard of fair competition for the boot and shoe manufacturers’ industry. Meanwhile, the commission was conducting a hearing in another test case, likewise involving price fixing, in which three rubber companies are contesting NRA’s complaint against them for refusing to file their price lists with the rubber code authority.

THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE, TUESDAY, AUGUST.14, 19 BANKERS NAMED IN EACH CITY TO MAKE U.S, HOUSING LOANS 2. Every Eligible Financial Institu- tion Solicited to Aid Home Modernization Washington, Aug. 14.—(#)—Roger Steffan, director of modernization credits, Tuesday said that by night- fall the federal housing administra- tion expects every city to have at least one bank where property own- ers can obtain insured loans for re- pairs and improvements. Steffan’s chief-—James A. Moffett— backed him up with an optimistic statement about bankers’ willingness to make such loans. “Enough banks already have ac- cepted the loan insurance plan,” Mof- fett said, “to handle more business than we can send them immediately. ‘The response of the bankers has been fine. They may not come in 100 per cent but that isn’t necessary and we never expected it.” The housing administration an- nounced the names of bankers select- ed in cooperation with the American Bankers association to advise and in- form financial institutions in each state on the modernization program. Steffan explained the administra- tion wanted every eligible financial! institution to participate in the lend-| ing, but that one cooperating bank in every community would assure suc- cess. He said applications were tak- en by some banks Saturday and some include: Frank P. Mora, Minn.; C. C. Wattam, Fargo, North Dakota; J. C. Vandagrift, Sioux Falls, South Dakota.
