TION BILL, ~ REPORTED TOHOUSE, ASKS $379.743905 Calls for Expenditures of 74 Mil- | lion Dollars More Than Previously \ ) \ Washington, Jan. 7.—(?)—The first of the 19. a] government agencies and undertak- ings was reported to the house Tues- day. As approved by the appropriations committee, it called for expenditures $74,509,747 greater than in the 1935-36 fiscal year but $47,601,861 less than the presidentially-approved budget. Chairman Woodrum (Dem., Va.), of the subcommitte which handled the bill, had promised “cuts all down the work last month. This was done, the committee said, without actually im- pairing. budget requests except in one instance. Many budget requests were met by authorizing the use of unex- pended balances of former appropria- tions. Allow Veterans More By this means, the report explained, the committee was able to provide) more money for three activities with- out increasing the budget. among them was $2,000,000 more for administrative expenses of the veter- ans’ administration, which drew the lion’s share or $753,727,000 of the $879,- 743,905 of actual new appropriations approved. The veterans’ agency re- ceived an additional $42,000,000 in re- eppropriations. Increased facilities, new pension obligations and increased demands on the adjusted service cer- tificate fund helped swell its money requests. Some of the new government act- ivities for which money was provided were: power commission, for enforc- ing the rates and survey provisions of the new utilities control law, $1,412,- 400 more; interstate commerce com- mission, to administer airmail rate making and motor vehicle regulation, $1,860,000; securities commission, for administering holding company pro- visions of utilities law, etc., $1,980,506, railroad retirement, national labor Jations and central statistical boards, all new agencies, $47,645,000, $735,000 and $175,420, respectively. Ignore Power Commission The committee declined to give the power commission the $3,600,000 it first asked, despite warnings from Chairman Frank R. McNinch that without the sum it could not begin to carry out the law effectively. The executive offices, including the White House and grounds received $437,130—exactly $102 less than last year. The communications commission’s! allowance was pared $51,000 below 1936 aeeciiatigng, to $1,474,000, Police Think Insane Woman Drowned Boy New York, Jan. 7.—(#}—Police offi- cials grimly persisted Tuesday in a theory that 10-months old Jackie Horowitz was abducted Sunday by a demented woman and that she pushed him into the East River to drown, The incoherent babblings of Gussie Friedman, 45, failed, however, to solve the mystery, and the police were un- able to prove that little Jackie is dead. even the distracted parents, Mr. and up hope that Jackie might still be found alive, Drowning fatalities have dropped 25 per cent in Great Britain. lation bills ; iG carrying $879,743,905 for two dozen line,” before the committee went to; Chief | Policemen, dragging the river, did | not find the body of the child, but! , Judge. Kneeshaw |Resident of Pembina Since 1873 i Is State’s Oldest Practic- ing Lawyer | Sixty-two years ago, a 19-year-old iboy, his eyes wide with adventure, walked into the United States from ‘anada to begin a career which was to make’ him one of North Dakota's {best known judges, His feet ached a little, from hiking over portages which the Hudson Bay {boat on which he began his trip from {Canada via Lake Superior, could not |navigate. He struck the town of Pembina, jliked it, decided to rest, and has \stayed there since. That boy, now a man of 81, is Dis- itrict Judge William J. Kneeshaw, who ifor the past 35 years has served con- tinuously on the bench of the second | judicial district. | Born in Ottawa He was born May 5, 1854, at Otta- iwa, Ont., of an English father and 'Seotch mother. ‘- In the French-Canadian city of ‘Montreal, Judge Keenshaw grew into young manhood. At 16, he enlisted in |the Argenteuil Rangers, 11th battal- j1on of the Canadian militia, and saw service in the Fenian raid of 1870 in eastern townships along the New York border. As result of his service he is a mem- ber of the British Empire Service league, an organization similar to the American Legion. From Queen Vic- toria he received a large silver medal in token of his service. In 1879, his law studies completed, he was admitted to the bar at Pem- bina. He claims the distinction of being the oldest living attorney, from the standpoint of continuous service, in the state. Helped Found Lodge | For several terms he was state's at- | torney of Pembina county and prose- jcuted many important criminal cases. He is the only surviving charter mem- ber of the Pembina Lodge, A. F. & A. M., which was organized in Pembina in 1876, He married Susan Randall, July 26, 1877, and is the father of four boys and three girls. “I have no particular hobby,” Judge | Kneeshaw declares, “but of course I'm interested in farming—I run a farm jot about 1,600 acres. But my life’s | work is in some way to help human- ‘ity and make this a better world in which to live.” i Socialites Arrested In Brazil Red Probe Rio De Janeiro, Jan. 7.—(?)—One of the smartest couples of Rio De Janeiro'’s fashionable foreign circles was held incommunicado Tuesday, somewhere in the gay city, while po- lice investigated the man and woman's alleged Communistic activities, Capt.

DISABLED VETERANS State Commander of Veterans Organization to Attend Ceremony Here World War veterans who received wounds in service, from all parts of the Missouri Slope area, will gather in Bis- ; Marck Tuesday night to attend instal- lation of new officers by the Bis- marck-Mandan post of the Disabled American Veterans. Chief speakers at the meeting will be Dan Daily of Devils Lake, state commander of the organization, and ; Walter R. Johnson, Fargo, state ad- {jutant. Johnson, who is connected iwith the U. 8. veterans administra- tion, is expected to explain the latest laws governing claims by ex-service- men against the government. Rev. E. L, Jackson of Bismarck, state chaplain, also will be in attend- | ance, Heading the new officers of the local post to be installed by Dailey will be Walter J. Brophy as commander and Charles Gray as adjutant.

Among the lat- ter will be a resolutions committee to express the stand of the disabled vet- eran on current issues and an em- ployment committee to assist D.A.V. members to obtain jobs. Diring the last year, he said, 25 veterans were placed in positions through the ef- forts of the organization. A probable activity, he said, will be & campaign to make operative the veterans preference sections of the law governing federal employment. At present, he said, it is pretty much of a dead letter. Brophy said all veterans receiving compensation for wounds or injuries received in service are eligible to mem- {bership and are invited to attend, whether or not they are members of the DAV.

The effect of the decision was to | Sustain 11 state codes of fair competi- | tion under which service trades and industries are now operating and to pave the way for the adoption of other codes which have been awaiting a test of the constitutionality of the law. The question presented to the court was whether the legislature had con- stitutional authority to confer upon the governor the power to initiate and impose codes. Chief Justice Marvin B. Rosenberry, reading a summary of the decision from the bench, declared that this delegation of lawmaking authority was within the limits of the Wisconsin constitution. The Wisconsin recovery law was first adopted in 1933, intended to dove- tail with; the national recovery act so as to embrace purely intrastate in- dustries which NRA unquestionably did not control. Nearly two dozen state codes were established under its protection. Thir- ty-five cent haircuts and 12 ounce beers for a nickel were among the things outlawed and in addition to price fixing, minimum wage and work- ing hour agreements were established. Four firms of automobile dealers led the fight which resulted in this act being declared unconstitutional by the supreme court in 1934 on the ground that it invested in industries and trades the power of law-making, which 4 the function solely of the legisla- ure. The new recovery law, which the supreme court interpreted Tuesday, was enacted by the 1935 legislature to meet the objection to the old law by placing the responsibility for initiat- ing codes directly upon the governor after the manner of NRA.
