VETERANS GETTING $760,000000 THIS YEARINU, S. MONEY Expense Increases $178,012,- 000 Since Congress Wiped Out Economy Acts Washington, Sept. 18.—(4)—Veter- ans administration officials calculated Wednesday the government is spend- ing in the neighborhood of $760,000,000 this year on war veterans and their dependents. The officials considered recently- restored benefits in making this cal- culation. The total compared with an outlay of $581,988,000 during the first year after passage of the 1933 economy act. Although many savings made un- der the economy act have been wiped out by congress and executive orders, one of more than $100,000,000 annually was shown to be intact. It is the result of denying compensation to world war veterans who have non- service-connected disabilities but are not entirely incapacitated by them. Questioned as to whether the next congress would be asked to restore this class of benefits, American Le- gion officials here expressed doubt their national convention in St. Louis next week would make such a re- quest. They predicted the conven- tion would concentrate on recom- mendations for immediate payment of the bonus and for care of widows and orphans of veterans dying of non- service-connected causes. ‘The veterans administration is pre- paring to ask the next congress for @ deficiency appropriation of about $39,391,800 to meet the cost of re- storing benefits this year to veterans of the Spanish American war, the Philippine Insurrection and the Boxer rebellion. AMATEURS SCORE IN SACRED PLAY Home Talent Cast Gives Fine Intrepretation of “The First Commandment” ‘ | soy Ween RR te RARE EY ‘The large audience gathered in the Bismarck city auditorium Tuesday might for the performance of “The First Commandment,” the first ama- teur theatrical effort of the current season in the Capital City, was re- warded with a sincere interpretation of the work by some 55 characters. The second and final performance will be given Wednesday night with the curtain rising at 8:15 o'clock. Sponsored by the Presbyterian Ladies’ Aid and directed by Mary Lee Tower, the play revealed much talent that is new in the community, or was brought to light for the first ‘ime because s0 many were drafted. Credit for notably fine interpreta- tions must go to E. M. Hendricks as the patriarch, Moses, Lorenzo H. Belk as the Pharoah of Joseph's time, Herman Peters as the Pharoah of Moses’ time, Burkett Huey as Joseph, Ernest Elness as Judah, Fred Monley as Simeon, Judge I. C. Davies as Reuben, John Moses as Helon, Bruce Doyle as Kohath and Nelson Sauvain &s one of the wise men. j Told by pantomime and dramatic action linked by continuity effectively handled by J. W. Riley as the grand- father, the story centered around the giving of the ten commandments to Moses, opening with the sale of Joseph into bondage by his brother and his rise to power during Phar- vah’s reign and closing with the birth of Christ. In the latter scene, the singing of George T. Humphreys, A. . Simon and E. B. Klein added mucn. B, F. Lawyer and Beth Wheeler rep- vesented the Christ child's parents. The choir of 40 voices under the direction of Clarion E. Larson and ac- lent a choral background of unusual beauty and fine musical balance. »—dUVENILE ‘GANG’ IS APPREHENDED HERE Stolen~ Watches, Flashlights and Other Property Re- covered From Youths Apprehension of a juvenile “gang” here this week is believed to have solved the mystery surrounding the Misappearance of a _ considerable amount of merchandise from city stores over the period, of serveral months. For some months police believed that petty thieves and vagrants were taking the articles but later atten- tion was shifted to the youths who spent considerable time on the up- town streets and finally resulted in their being brought before the juven- commissioner. “gang,” consisting of eight boys 44 at gs He HH z i : : Conference “Rev.

Rowland of 8t.

Stangler, manager of the Bank of North Dakota, came rec- ommendations that two levies be made, one of $200,000 for the bond in- terest payment fund, and $200,000 for the bond principal payment fund, this fiscal year and for each year there- after for a 10-year period. Stangler backed his request for « $200,000 levy for the principal pay- ment fund, with a claim that a $1,- 549,124.27 deficit existed in the fund as of July 1 of this year. Losses le Losses on principal on farm loans and refinanced mortgages have been responsible for the deficit, Stangler said. He expressed the belief that “principal losses will increase as time goes on.” ‘ Stangler explained, “we had on July 1 of this year, invested $6,304,- 273.93 in unpaid principal on farm lands and $12.858,227.85 in open loans and foreclosures; I am that we will never get our principal back in a large number of these that the estimated principal loss increase rapidly as the loans land are gradually disposed of. While Gray agreed with in the belief that principal losses will increase, he “it is a situa. tion that won't develop for 15 years; it is a loss that will absorb itself; there is nothing to get alarmed about; there is money enough now. to take up bonds up to 1950, which is ample protection.” Eventually, Gray said, the will have to be made g {Car Crash Mishap |___ Speedily Settled o——_¢@ . | Sportsman, the National nesday. ” _THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE.
