Express Concern for Social Security Law Washington, July 12.—(#)—Admin- istration men expressed concern Fri- day lest the Roosevelt social security program be “wrecked” by a dispute over exemption of private pension Plans. Conferees have been working on the program, attempting to straighten out differences in the bill as passed by the house and senate. For two weeks they have been tied up in a contro- versy over the senate amendment to exempt companies and workers cov- ered by private pension plans from the taxes to be levied for the nation- wide old age pension system. They met again Friday in an effort to work out a settlement. —______—____—_—_—_® Weather Report ° FORECAST For Bismarck and vicinity: Fair tonight and Sat- urday; little change tem- perature.

See Bigger Income From School Lands With an average crop this season, 5 | the rental of school lands by the state land department will be as much or more than in 1929, one of the best rental years, it was disclosed Thurs- Pct. |day by state officials. With all the summer applications being filed, officials of the depart- ment estimated not more than 80,000 to 100,000 acres would remain un- leased. The total amount of acreage in the leasing department on April 29 was 1,885,055 and at that time there was 298,154 acres of cultivated lands leased and 1,173,432 acres grazing land leased, leaving a balance of 383,479 acres unleased including both culti- vated and uncultivated. Since there nas been an abundance of moisture during this season, a large portion of this land is being leased daily. “With an average crop, the rental this year will be as much or more years,” the department stated. than in 1929, one of the best rental to Hal Du Berrier.

CONTINUE a = Many Persons Are Driven From Homes As Flood Spreads parts of Mandan’s Syndicate and threatening to overrun the dykes on the eastern side of the river. Families in the flooded districts were moved to the new Mandan au- ditorium where they were cared for by relief crews. Men at the three CCC camps moved to higher grounds as the waters en- tered the camp, spreading eight inches of water over the building floors. Crops lay beneath flood waters of the Knife river at Killdeer and Man- ning, and fears rose that bridges might. be washed out. Side roads were im- passable and highways suffered dam- age with several washouts being re- ported. Children Find Fishpond Mandan children got some fun out of the flood as the municipal golf course became a fishpond. They were paddling around on crudely-con- structed rafts and several reported good catches of bullheads and cat- ‘ish. Elsewhere in western North Dako- ta flood waters were receding, water in the Knife river at Manning hav- ing receded from the flood levels which threatened the town Thursday. Numerous reports of dams break- ing were unverified. There are few dams of any size in the western part of the state and so far as could be learned none of them had given way.

The increase was due chiefly to the large increase in ex- penditures for charities, hospitals and corrections. Items of expenditure included: $63,149.02 for general government. $18,679.02 for protection to persons and property, $484.50 for conservation of health and sanitation, $2,750.06 for economis development, $105,102.76 for charities, hospitals and corrections, $4,564.72 for education, $1,633.37 for recreation, $2,813 for miscellaneous, $113.75 for interest on certificates of indebtedness, $14,257.67 for road and bridge, $37.30 for grasshopper exter- mination and $2,031.34 for gopher ex- termination. C ONTINUE D from page ons: ‘ Local Mass Meeting Will Close Campaign the measure, passed by the legisla- ture and referred to the people, will be approved by a majority of the voters, Even those sections where opposi- tion to the sales tax was most mani- fest at first have materially changed their position after giving the matter study, they said, while in most parts of the state doubts about the issue have generally been resolved in its favor. In the Red River Valley, seat of the opposition to the sales tax, the con- dition was said to have been marked- ly improved. Much of the fight against the sales tax has k:en led by. persons. living in Fargo, but Grand Forks and some other cities in the eastern part cf the state were said not to share this attitude and majorities are expected Educator Favors It Although most of the arguments supporting the sales tax have been based on the need for financing the public schools, strong support was, given the movement Friday by Dr. B. E. Kroeze, president of James- town college and the state’s foremost private educator. In a letter to the campaign com- mittee Dr. Kroeze said he is strongly in favor of the sales tax “because it is the most equitable tax that has ever been devised and places.no bur- den on anyone” and because he feels jected since “we are reliably in- formed that the funds alloted for relief by the federal government may not be forthcoming unless the state provides a fair share of the moneys required for relief purposes.” ONTINUE D C from page one Top of Balloon Is Broken and Helium A Escapes Into Air They planned to examine the fab- ric inch by inch to see where and how the break occurred, Only One Eighth Inflated Before the collapse the helium was concentrated in the top of the bag, which was inflated to only about one eighth its capacity. This was to allow for expansion in the sun’s heat. Mrs, Orvil A, Anderson, wife of the balloon pilot, rushed out on the field to find her husband after the acci- dent. He was unhurt, Sargent G. W. Money of the U. 8. army air corps at Scott field, Ill., one of the men who was working on top of.the Gondola, described the mis- hap. “I was working on @ cross bar on top of the Gondola,” he said. “Sud- denly I felt the ropes slacken, The next thing I knew the whole fabric came down on me.” J. FP. Cooper of the Goodyear-Zep- pelin corporation at Akron, O., mak- ers of the balloon, said he knew of no reason for the collapse. No Decision as to Future Officials of the geographic society, which financed the $175,000 exped- ition, would not comment immediately Boe aged the possibility of a later shi it. The first reaction at the flight camp was one of relief that the ac- cident did not occur after the take- off, It also was pointed out that had such a mishap occurred in last year’s flight, when explosive hydrogen was used, the result might have been cal- amitous, Helium is non-explosive and non-inflammable, ‘The crushing misfortune which so unexpectedly disrupted the expedi- tion climaxed almost a year of pre- paration. Plans for the attempt were started immediately after the flight list July ended in near disaster over central Nebraska when the bag ripped at a height of 60,000 feet and then exploded. The flight Friday was to have been the most ambitious undertaking of its kind ever attempted.

At the same time it was disclosed that H. C. DePuy, Grafton, presi- dent of the state welfare board, has advised members of county welfare boards that revenue from the seles tax is essential to carry out the social legislation enacted at the last ses- sion. Welfare Program in Doubt In a letter to members of the coun- ty welfare boards, charged with ad- ministering poor relief, old-age, mothers’ and blind pensions and other details of the social welfare enactments, DePuy said the only funds appropriated by the state must come from the sales tax. Anticipating passage by congress of the national social security act, De- Puy said some of the federal funds for pensions and the care of crip- Pled and dependent children will be made available to the state “only provided the federal funds are matched with a certain amuont >f state funds.” As a result, he said, the state wel- fare board has found it impossible to formulate plans for action, pend: ing the vote on the sales tax and that the whole program may have to be abandoned if the sales tax is re- largest ever built. The Gondola also was a record size. Cap- tain Anderson was confident the sky craft would break the official record of 11.6 miles, with prospects of reach- ing a height of 14 miles. Had Waited Five Weeks For more than five weeks, the giant craft was carefully guarded against accident, awaiting the arrival of fa- vorable weather for the takeoff. The fabric had been completely dusted with talcum to prevent friction which might result in sticking and subse- quent tears, factors which were be- lieved to have caused the premature ending of the flight last year. Captain Stevens said he would an official report to the war department at Washington and geo- graphic society officials indicated they also would report through their Washington headquarters. “What stunned us the ac- cident,” Capt, Stevens said, “was that everything had gone so smoothly and extra precautions had been taken to ae the balloon as strong as pos- sible.” Tears in the balloon used last yeat started at the bottom, but’ no trouble appeared in the top. Capt. Stevens spoke of the disap- bointment to the army and geo- Sraphic. society, explaining that the latter suffered a severe financial loss. "The cost of the expedition was placed ©~ ‘at $175,000. He said the army would be partially repaid by the training given men in balloon handling. Capt. Anderson, obviously greatly disappointed, had no comment, Measure to Prevent Gold Suits Favored - Washington, July 12—(P)—The house banking committee Friday ap- Proved an administration bill to bar suits against the government to col= lect alleged damages arising out o£ devaluation of the dollar. “WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ME.?
