(Special to the Tribune) Wichita, Kans., Aug. 24.—Marching straight toward a national champion- ship, a swashbuckling band of ball players from North Dakota’s Capital City, Friday night put the dimmers on the last remaining title threat. Conquering the previously undefeat- ed Duncan, Okla., club, the Bismarck crew chalked up its fifth straight tour- nament victory as ebony Satchel Paige turned in a masterful five-hit hurling feat and scored his third tri- umph in the Wichita event when his mates blasted out nine safe blows for a 3-1 victory. Churchill’s club rested Saturday as the eight other remaining teams, who fought their way into the champion- ship stretch Friday night, battled over the right to play Bismarck in the final game Sunday. Churchill to Talk On Wichita Radio Information that Neil Churchill, manager of the Bismarck baseball club, woulddalk over station KFH, Wichita, at 5:30 p. m. Saturday was received here at noon by 8. W. Corwin, his business partner. Churchill is expected to give his impressions of the tournament to date and to give the “folks back home” the lowdown on the na- tional competition. Corwin said the books list KFH at 1310 kilocycles but that on his set it has been coming in at 1350 kilocycles. He has been getting a number of night games over the air, he said, but hasn’t tried it in the daytime or as early in the eve- ning as 5:30. Rossville Upsets Denver Rossville, Ga., upset the dope Fri- day with a 3-1 win that eliminated the highly-rated Denver Fuelers. Ross- ville has been defeated once, as have all other survivors except Bismarck. Bismarck previously had defeated the Fuelers, 4 to 1. In Friday's other two games the Omaha Fords eliminated Wichita Water, 7-5 and Bismarck downed Dun- can. Other teams still in the race are Shelby, N. C.; Memphis, Tenn., Negro Red Sox; Yuma, Ariz.; Shawnee, Okla., and the Denver Negro All-Stars. Sunday’s championship game is slated to get underway af 8 p. m., Bis- marck time. It was a familiar story Friday night as Paige took the slab before approximately 7,000 fans who packed Lawrence stadium to near capacity. Allowing only five scattered hits, the Negro moundsman fanned 16 oppos- ing batsmen and allowed a single base on balls. Only Two Reach Third He let the Duncan team get a man on third on only two occasions and retired the first nine men in order, five of them on strikeouts. Despite Paige's stellar performance and the errorless support he received from his fielding mates, the game was no walk-away and the tension was high until the last Duncan bat- ter had fanned in the ninth inning. Lefty Johns, ace of the Duncan flingers and formerly of the Detroit Tigers in the American Bismarck’s big bats pretty c! check with his southpaw slants and garnered 11 strikeouts for himself before he was taken out for a pinch batter in the eighth. - Johns was nicked for nine safeties (Continued on Page Three) Roosevelt to Speak - , Aug. 24.—()—Presi- _ _ Washington, ~ dent Roosevelt will be heard over the nation Saturday night as he makes talk in recent his first major radio months.

T. Owen, assisted by federal rev- enue men, made 11 different raids Thursday and Friday and seized a large quantity of liquor. Places visited at Dickinson were those of George Berzel, The Villard and St. Charles hotels and the cafe of Charles McQueen. At Berzel’s the agents seized 510 bottles of whiskey, wine and gin, some unstamped cigarettes and some oak chips, used in “curing” moonshine liquor. At McQueen’s they obtained five cans of alcohol, another can partly full, 70 bottles of whiskey, gin and wine and a slot machine, along with a quantity of empty, new alcohol tins and numerous empty liquor bottles. Owens inferred that the bottles were intended to be filled there. Hotel Raided Twice The Villard hotel was raided both ‘Thursday and Friday, four bottles of liquor being seized each time, and at the St. Charles hotel agents took 15 bottles of whiskey, gin and alcohol. A raid on the cafe of Joseph Winis- trofer at Lehigh, east of Dickinson, netted nothing but outside Winis- trofer’s place Roy Thielan was arrest- ed because he had two bottles of whis- key. Agents claimed he was doing a business of selling liquor by the drink. His car was seized by John F. Lish, Stark county sheriff, Owen said. ‘The home of John Menge, Jr., Ha- zen, was raided Thursday on a search some moonshine in a jug; @ sack filled ‘with bottles, some empty and some partly full, and five empty tins were seized. Continuing on to Gofden Valley, the state beer men raided the beer parlor of W. A. Lorenz and took one and three-quarters gallons of alcohol, some sloe gin and a pint of whiskey. Find Alcohol in Field Near Carrington the beer men found 47 gallons of alcohol in a field. Owen said his agents told him it had been placed there by Mike Augustad of Goodrich after a chase by state and federal men. At Beulah, J. C. Porter was picked up with “eight or 10” bottles of whis- key, gin and alcohol and at Taylor, Bob Lane was arrested with three gallons of moonshine and several bot- tles of gin. Dropping in at Tower City, in Cass county, agents searched the home of Fort Miller and obtained 15 pints of liquor. This raid was conducted on a search warrant, Owen said. Prosecution of all of the men was left to local authorities, although in some of the cases it is possible they will face federal prosecution under the revenue act, Owen said. Peterson to Appoint Two More Wardens Two more district wardens are ex- pected to be appointed within 10 days, Arthur I. Peterson, state game and fish , said Saturday. The men would be appointed to patrol the districts including Wells, Foster, Kid- der and Stutsman counties and Dunn, Mercer, and parts of Stark, Grant and Morton counties.

He acted on the belief one of Italy’s first acts will be to bomb the capital from the air. The Ethiopian em- peror also ordered all valuable prop- erty hidden in subterranean caverns, His order stirred the capital’s 120,000 residents. Americans and other foreigners remained calm, some believing that the League of Nations might yet save the situation. Americans who plan to remain in Addis Ababa even in the case of war, inciuding missionaries, business men and correspondents, will need to make special arrangements for pro- tection from air raids. : Nearest City’s Center The American legation is nearest of all diplomatic missions to the cen- ter of the city. The Italian legation is five miles away, the British four, and the French, German and Belgian three. Great Britain, preparing to show he= naval might. in the Mediterranean and. with planes reported already on their way to guard the Suez canal, was called unprepared for conflict in conection with the Italo-Ehiopian quarrel by part of the London press. The maneuvers were viewed in some British quarters as prepared- ness for the taking of sanctions against Italy, in case other members of the League of Nations support Great Britain in such a step. Neutrality Vote Set The United States senate worked toward a final vote on precedent- breaking neutrality plans to keep America out of war. The house of representatives, in passing the re- solution, altered it to limit the period of a mandatory embargo on arms shipments to belligerents. Mussolini’s army tuned up for gigantic war games on Austrian frontier which may be pattern for Ethiopian hostilities. Faint hopes that Premier Mussolini might at least slow up his troop movements to East Africa as a result of the British cabinet’s emergency session this week were dashed with a 1eport from Rome that Italy’s big- gest. consignment of troops on one ship—4,500 men—was embarking Saturday in a vessel built to accom- modate 1,500 persons. MITIGATE GARRISON FARMER'S SENTENGE Man Convicted of Shooting at Airplane Will Serve Jail, Not Prison Term Instead of spending a year in prison, Guy Muzzy, Garrison farmer, convicted of shooting at an airplane with a rifle, will receive a maximum sentence of 30 days in jail and $100 fine, the ‘supreme court determined Spturday on his appeal. Muzzy was convicted in McLean county district court of shooting at an airplane which flew low over his farm, the bullet striking the plane, but not Pilot George Albrecht or his pas- r. .

Democrats as they entered the sec- ond @ay of their national convention Saturday. The constitution, a favorite topic with convention speakers, was dis- cussed by Gov. George H. Earle of Pennsylvania Friday night with the parting statement: “If this be trea- son, make the most of it.”. As Governor Earle finished speak- ing, John Roosevelt made an unex- pected entrance after flying from the east and the wildest scene in the convention ensued. The young Harvard student said his father was unable to come be- cause of the press of business and his brother James unable to come be- cause of illness, he decided some member of the family should be here, so he came and was having a “fine time,” he said.

D., Aug. 24.—(?)—Text books at the Killdeer high school are being repaired and catalogued by vol- unteer . workers under direction of Willard Yule, Dunn county FERA recreational supervisor Pursuant to this, Muzzy was sen- tenced to prison by Judge R. G. Mc- Farland. On appeal, as in the lower court, it was contended that the jury's verdict, in effect, was one of convic- tion of simple assault and hence a misdemeanor rather than a felony. The high court sustained this view. Hyland and Foster represented Muzzy at the trial and on the appeal.

President Signs AAA Amend- ment Bill Strengthening Original Enactment Washington, Aug. 24.—()—The ‘74th congress struggled manfully for adjournment late Saturday, still breaking precedent. ‘The neutrality resolution, reversing traditional policy by mandatory .di- rections to the president, rode over- whelmingly through the senate as modified by the house to make the arms embargo feature temporary. A resolution fixing adjournment for Saturday night was adopted on a voice vote in the house early in the afternoon. President Roosevelt also received his requested ban against suits after January to recover from the govern- ment because of gold dollar revalua- tion. A voice vote in the house suf- ficed. CONGRESS BIG JOB Washington, Aug. 24.—(#)—Here are the major parts of the gigantic task facing congress in order to adjourn tonight: Approval by both houses of the conference reports on the $250,- 000,000 tax measure, utility holding rari bill, and alcohol control Senate approval of the neutral- ity legislation. Senate passage of the $100,000,- 000 deficiency appropriation bill carrying funds for the social se- curity administration, and includ- bd the battle over a 12-cent cotton an. House acceptance of a bill to bar gold clause after four months grace. Senate Must Act The house as readily approved the compromise alcohol control bill. It had yet to be acted on by the senate, however, before joining other meas- ures at the White House. To the impatience of some sena- tors, much time was taken in that branch with argument about Ameri- can policy and European war dangers. Southern senators were waiting their chance to insist on a 12 cent cotton loan, before final action on tie new tax and utility regulation Another measure destined for su- Preme court test, with possible sig- nificant effect on the 1936 campaign, became law by presidential signature. It was that to strengthen the agri- cultural adjustment act, revised after the NRA collapse. FDR Gets Gold Bill Congress also sent to the White House the bill to forbid after Jan. 1, 1936, suits against the government to collect any alleged losses caused by dollar devaluation and abrogation of gold payment clauses in government obligations, President Roosevelt signed a bill amending the agricultural adjust- ment act Saturday with the declara- tion it will enable the AAA “to move forward in its constructive and essen- tial work in behalf of agriculture.” He made the following statement: “This legislation supplements and strengthens the original agricultural adjustment act, enacted May 12, 1933, which unquestionably has been of great value to American farmers. It carries forward the agricultural pro- gram on the broad ecomonic basis of the original act. To Speed AAA This act as a whole will enable the agricultural adjustment sadministra- (Continued on Page Three) They Lead Neutrality Law Drive Leaders in the senate fight to give the United States new laws to help preserve neutrality in the case of war, made imminent by the Italian-Ethiopian crisis, three senators are shown above conferring on the terms of the resolution which was speeded through congress.

CRITICS IGNORED AS |VALLEY CITY SLAYER NEUTRALITY ACT 1S HUNTED AS VICTIM'S APPROVED IN SENATE Johnson and Connally Belittle Law as Preventing U. S. Going to War Washington, Aug. 24.—()—Despite assaults that it placed America in an “international straight-jacket” and was only a “gesture toward peace,” the senate Saturday speeded to the White House the compromise resolution to bulwark American neutrality in any foreign war. “The vote was 77 to 2. Only Sen- ators Bankhead of Alabama and Gerry of Rhode Island, both Demo- crats, voted against the resolution. Final action came on a motion to concur in house amendments to the original senate resolution. The compromise among other things places a mandatory embargo on arms and munitions shipments to all belligerents in a foreign conflict effective only until Feb. 29, 1936.

D., Aug. 24.—()—As authorities continued their manhunt Saturday for John Helland, local cafe employe, funeral services were set for Sunday for Mrs. Conrad Larson, 45, who police claim was shot and killed by Helland in a Valley City beer parlor late Thursday. An inquest was to be held late Saturday into the shooting, which Police say resulted from Helland’s “Jealousy.” Police declined to give further explanation but stated Mrs. Larson and Helland were “acquaint- ances.” The slaying occurred in the base- ment beer parlor of the main hotel here after 11 p. m.

The main reason why the resolution should be adopted, Johnson said, was to state to the world that the “United States has adopted a policy of. mind- ing its own business, to keep out of European controversies, European wars and the. like.” Johnson said the sponsors of the resolution had his “hearty sympathy” for their “laudable desires,” but he sald those who believed it would be a means of preventing America from becoming involved in a war were “doomed to disappointment.” Texas Wets and Drys Again in Poll Battle Dallas, Tex.

Bismarck Resident of 1877, Thomas Rush, Returns Again Thomas Rush, who belongs to the fast disappearing roster of early U. 8. mail drivers and freighters to the Black Hills during the stampede for gold in the '70’s, has returned to Bis- marck—once the center from which he drove his prancing teams. ‘This time Rush is ill and is a pa- tient at St. Alexius hospital where he was interviewed for The Tribune Thursday by William A. Falconer, local pioneer, who knew Rush when he first came here in 1877. Rush was 24 when he left his home in Minneapolis and came to Bismarck, arriving here on St. Patrick’s day, March 17, 1877. He wasn't here long before he got a job driving the U. 8. mail from Bismarck to Fort Buford, near the present cite of Williston. ‘Two-Week Trip Ruch recalled that it took two weeks for the mail team to make the round trip between here and Fort Buford. The first stopping place was at Rhude's at Turtle Creek, then on to Forts Stevenson and Berthold and finally to Fort Buford. Many hard- ships were encountered—Rush and all the other mail drivers never stopped for blizzards in the winter or for swollen streams which had to be forded in the spring. The mail had to be delivered on time. In the fall of "78, Rush quit the mail route and bought some teams to start freighting to the Black Hills. He re- calls now the great demand for teams and men for freighting from this point to Deadwood after the disas- trous fire in "79. He also freighted from Deadwood to Sidney, Neb.

WILTON VOTES FOR NEW GOVERNMENT Voters Favor Change from Al- dermanic Form to Commis- sion, 208-100 Wilton, N. D., Aug. 24.—(P)—A tab- ulation Saturday of the votes cast in Friday's city election showed Wilton citizens had approved by 208 to 100 the proposed change from aldermanic to commission form of government. Complaining the present system was “too expensive” for Wilton, sponsors of the change circulated petitions asking for the change with signatures by 10 per cent of the legal voters, bringing the question to a determina- tion at the polls. ————— f California to Have | Real ‘Golden Bear’ —_—_—_—_—___—_—__—_—_—_—_-© Berkeley, Calif, Aug. 24—(P)— If the peroxide lasts the Univer- sity of California football team will have a genuine “golden bear” for mascot by Nov. 23 at the an- nual “big game” with Stanford.

PRICE FIVE CENTS elford Urges Farmers to Hold Wheat "Bismarck Only Undefeated Nine in National Meet Arguing Congress Struggles to Adjourn Late Saturday 11 Liquor Raids Dry Up | Five Slope Wet Spots DISCRIMINATION LAW MAY BE INVOKED 10 FORCE HIGHER PRICE Industrial Commission Study- ing Plan to Better Light Weight Grain Value MILL GRINDING GOOD FLOUR Moodie Terms Present Prices ‘Merciless Robbery’ of State’s Farmers Asserting that “North Dakota’s wheat has a greater value than is be- ing fixed for it on the market,” Gov. Walter Welford Saturday launched an examination into the question to see if means cannot be found for raising the price. The matter was being considered at a meeting of the state industrial commission Saturday, and it was hoped to devise a plan whereby the present situation could be improved. At many points, Governor Welford said he had been informed, elevators are paying only 15 and 16 cents a bushel for light-weight, high-protein wheat. Information from the milling dis- tricts, however, discloses that this same wheat is being combined with heavy, low protein wheat in the manufacture of flour. It is possible, it was disclosed, that the state may call into action its anti-discrimination statute to stabil- ize prices, Prices Vary At some points, the governor said he was informed, old-line elevator companies are lifting the price a lit- tle in order to induce a flow of grain to their elevators rather than to those of private competitors. At others, where the line elevators have no com- petition, the price has been hammer- ed down to @ near-record low point. The aim of the anti-discrimination statute, is to force firms having a large number of buying agents to pay the same price for the same grade of agricultural products, less freight or other fixed charges. ‘The law was enacted to protect small creameries from unfair com- petition by their larger competitors who have been accused in the past of increasing the price of butterfat where there is local competition and of reducing it where no competition exists or after previous competition had been eliminated, Two factors were uppermost in the mind of the governor and other in- dustrial commission members Satur- day as they looked into the problem. Seek Temporary Financing One was that of enabling the farm- ers to hold their crop by obtaining temporary financing for them. It has been reported that creditors are “pounding on the back” many farm- ers in an effort to get their money. The other was to determine what can be done to increase the price be- ing paid by the millers, ‘The governor and industrial com- mission were in touch with the state mill and elevator Saturday and from its experts learned that this year’s crop is of unusually high protein con- tent but that flour made from it is slightly “off” in color. It was made clear that the greatest possible use (Continued on Page Three) POOL OF WATER IN. | YARD CLAIMS LIFE Mandan Tot, Son of Captain Lytle, Drowns While Play- ing With Companion An 18-months-old boy, Jack Lytle, drowned Saturday when he fell into a pool of water in a neighbor's yard in Mandan. The youngster was playing with a companion, Larry Sullivan, when the accident occurred. The Sullivan boy ran to the home of the Lytles and breathlessly informed the mother of the younger boy, Mrs. J.

Empty Freight Cars Upset by Beach Wind Beach, N. D., Aug. 24.—(P)—A strong gust of wind hurled nine empty freight cars onto their sides on the main line of the Northern Pa- cific railroad five miles east of here late Friday night. The accident occurred as the freight train was pulling into a side track, the wind ripping the nine cars out of the line and throwing them over, spreading some of them onto the main line. A wrecker from Glendive was im- mediately sent to the scene. The line was cleared without holding up schedules of the regular passenger trains, railroad agents here said.
