The avalanche slid down the steep mountainside at dusk Wednesday and ripped the coach from the rear of a two-car branch line train. A rescue crew of 75 found two in- jured passengers in the wreckage of the splintered car, but the Lookout Summit station reported four persons were The Summit operator “Unlikely they will be found alive.” The missing were Thomas Byall, conductor, and F. A. McLean, brake- man, both of Missoula, and an un- identified man and woman, both pas- sengers. The avalanche, bearing snow 12 feet deep, swept across the Northern Pacific railroad track as an engine pulled a mail car and the lone pas- senger coach slowly toward Wallace, a ww clearing its way.

REPASSAGE OF SEED LOAN ACT UNLIKELY House Action Scheduled Thurs- day on Conference Report on New Farm Bill Washington, Feb. 27.—(#)—Presi- dent Roosevelt’s veto 0° the $50,000,000 seed loan bill was generally believed ‘Thursday to have killed the measure though Senator Smith (Dem. 8. C.) was trying to get congress to over- ride the veto. Opposition to the Smith move on the part of Majority Leader Robinson and the assurance of the chief execu- tive that work relief funds would be transferred to aid farmers still in dis- tress, gave the general impression that re-enactment is impossible. House action was scheduled Thurs- day on the conference report which settled differences between senate and house on the administration’s $500,- 000,000 soil conservation-farm subsidy program. Little opposition was mani- fested and quick acceptance of the conference report by both chambers was expected, See $22,000,000 for N. D.

GANNETT NYE WOULD CHANGE CONSTITUTION FOR | BENEFIT OF FARMER Proposes Amendment to Give Congress Power to Regu- late Farm Commodities Washington, Feb. 27.—()—A reso- lution proposing a constitutional amendment to give congress full power to regulate the sale and marketing of agricultural commodities was intro- duced in the senate Thursday by Sen- ator Nye (Rep.

Defi ee \*THt the’ light ofthe many conflict- ing decisions,” Nye told newspaper- men off the floor, “it seems high time to clearly define the right of congress to deal with this national agricultural problem.” His amendment would not be opera- tive unless ratified by three-fourths of the states within seven years. A two-thirds majority is required in each house to submit constitutional amendments to the states. Senator Logan (Dem., Ky.) has in- troduced an amendment which would give congress power to regulate not only agriculture, but industry. Monaghan Hits Court Urging voters to demand the pres- ent congress enact legislation pro- hibiting the supreme court from de- claring congressional acts invalid, Rep. Joseph P. Monaghan (Dem., Mont.) Wednesday night asserted re- cent decisions of the high tribunal on labor legislation “wrote not glory but shame.” “For every one liberty the supreme court has protected, if any, by its un- lawful usurpation of the right to des- troy acts of congress, one thousand liberties have been destroyed,” he charged. He added the court in its invalida- tion of the NRA “wrote another page of shame in the sweat shops, in the mines, in the mills and all those places where such decisions have destroyed workers’ liberties and substituted judi- cial oligarchy for representative gov- ernment.” Dance Receipts Boost Crippled Youth Fund Bismarck’s share of the receipts from the. joint President's ball, amounting to $53.68, have been turned over to Miss Helen Katen, executive secretary of the North Dakota Anti- Tuberculosis association.

Young, and will be used for some Burleigh county child who is suffering from infantile paralysis and can benefit from treatments admin- istered at Camp Grassick. Secretary H. P.

CHOSEN AS BORAH'S MATE IN OHIO RAGE Chain Newspaper Publisher of Rochester, N. Y., Supports Idaho Man Powerful New Yorker Believes Westerner Only Man Who Can Best FDR Washington, Feb. 27. — (?) — The forces of Senator Borah of Idaho rolled on toward the primary skirm- ish grounds Thursday, equipped. with the required “second choice” for the Republican presidential nomination. Frank E. Gannett of Rochester, N Y., publisher of a chain of news- papers, will fight alongside the senate veteran for the 52 delegates the Buckeye state will send to the Cleve- land convention. Informed that his Ohio forces had selected Gannett, Borah said: “I have a very high opinion of Mr. Gan- nett. I think it is a most admirable choice.” ‘The “second choice,” rule does not mean the selected person would be vice presidential candidate. Gannett has been a strong sup- porter of the Idahoan. Last Saturday he issued a statement pointing to Borah as “the only man who can wage a succesful campaign against a master politician and arouse the na- tion to action by vigorous, convincing appeal.” Representatives of John Knight, a Borah leader in Ohio, in announcing Gannett’s acceptance, released a statement from him in which he said it would mean ““‘a great sacrifice.” “However,” said Gannett, “such a Grave crisis confronts the nation that all who kelieve in our precious insti- tutions, who. wish,.to preserve the constitution and the integrity of the supreme court must be ready and willing to make many sacrifices.” OLD AGE PENSION PLAN REVISED 10 MEET U. §. RULES Question of Transient Care Placed in Hands of Coun- ties by State Board Approval by the state welfare board of revisions in North Dakota’s old age assistance plan to make it conform with requirements of the federal so- cial securities board Thursday brought the state nearer realization of pen- sions for the needy aged. E. A. Willson, executive secretary of the board, said the changes probably would bring federal approval of the Plan within a week or so. It pro- vides for a maximum monthly pay- ment of $30 to eligible needy aged. The board Wednesday night also authorized Willson to make alloca- tions of funds to county welfare boards for March on the basis of re- ported needs to be filed with the state board at the end of this month. The question of care of transients must be solved by the counties, the board ruled, after determining it could not make definite allocations for that purpose. No decision was made on a plea of chiropractors they be recognized and approved by the board as part of the relief program. Willson explained un- der the present system rules provide only for emergency medical treatmeut, not corrective care. Chicago Confused by New Scheduled Time Chicago, Feb. 27.— (#) — Chicago's argument over a switch in time zone reached new confusion Thurslay with threats to conduct a popular refer- endum on the city’s eastern standard time law. Petitions to restore the city to cen- tral standard time went into circula- tion, three days before the clocks were due to be advanced an hour. Unless the city council repeals the eastern time ordinance before it goes into effect March 1, a popular vote could not force a change until after the November elections. By that fime, the ICC might have approved the city’s plea to include Chicago in the eastern time zone. .| Farm Girl Acquitted Of Murdering Father Anadarko, Okla., Feb. 27.-(P)— Emma Willis, 18-year-old farm girl, was: acquitted Wednesday of murder charges in the shotgun slaying of her share-cropper father.

Fitchette, former public defender under Ed Goff, county attorney, made his accusation during arguments on demurrers to the indictments, He claimed authorities are permit- tingy slot--machine operators *to~ ply; , their racket in the city—an accusa- tion made by the late Walter Liggett in the Midwest American newspaper | before he was slain by a machine gunner last Dec. 9. | Fitchette Replies Challenged by Arthur Markve, as- sistant county attorney representing the prosecution in the cases, to name| a operators, Fitchette replied “Art Fitchette also claimed Ed Morgan and Ed Wagner were operators of slot machines, adding “it is unfair that the grand jury indict men like my clients and led Ed Morgan and the big slot machine operators run loose.” | Ed Morgan was another person ac- cused by Publisher Liggett in frequent articles assailing crime and vice con- ditions in Minneapolis. Another of the men attacked by Liggett, Isadore (Kid Cann) Bluemfeld, was acquitted two weeks ago of a murder charge in connection with the publisher's ass- assination, Causes Hubbub Fitchette did not identify Morgan and Wagner. His statement caused @ hubbub in the courtroom and a pointed order from Judge Arthur Sel- over that the hearing should be con- fined to arguments on the demurrers. The liquor dealers’ attorney argued the facts on which the indictments were based were insufficient to war- rant a court action. The dealers were! accused of perjury in making out ap-/ Plications for lcenses to dispense| liquor, | } FARGO ASSURED OF TWO NEW BRIDGES Long Drawn Out Controversy Ends With Purchase of Right-of-Way for One Fargo, N.

Audience May Warm Chorus’ ‘Cold Feet’ If members of the Bismarck Men’s chorus don’t get “cold feet” at their initial concert here tonight they should give a creditable performance, M. H. | Anderson, chorus president, remarked — Thursday. EN ‘The members have been practicing the first of the year and have main- tained a 90 per cent attendance rec- ord despite the cold weather and the press of other affairs. The interest has been phenomenal, Anderson said, and the chorus now is definitely a go- ing concern. The fact that many of the members are not used to singing in public, how- ever, makes their initial concert some- thing of a test he said, since there always is the possibility of stage fright. ‘The uniform adopted by the chorus | missi calls for a white shirt with a black bow tie. A proposal to have the chorus dress in tuxedos was abandoned when CRILE SAYS HUMAN LIFE COMPARES T0 ELECTRIC BATTERY Famed Cleveland Surgeon Has Theory All Living Cells Are Electric Cells New York, Feb. 27—()—Dr. George W. Crile, noted Cleveland surgeon, presented his own answers to the questions of life and death that have engrossed him for half a century Thursday and explained that all life is an electrical event in nature. In his book, “The Phenomena of Life,” published Thursday, Dr. Crile advances the theory that all living cells are electric cells which “die” when physical or emotional shock de- stroys their ability to hold or transfer energy. All matter he believes is electrical and all energy is electric, leading to the conclusion that living matter must be born of and must be kept alive by electric energy. So long as this energy flows in and out of the living organism, which he compares to a battery, life exists. Cut off this energy, he says, or damage its parts so that they cannot do their work, and the battery “runs down” and the organism is dead. Convict Milbank Man Of Okabena Bank Raid! Jackson, Minn., Feb. 27.—()}—Con- viction late Wednesday of Floyd Strain, Milbank, 8.

Funeral arrangements have not been announced. it was ascertained many members did not have such garb and that the pur- chase of dress clothes would strain their budgets. “The voice is the main thing, not the ability to purchase or wear clothes,” Anderson said, “so we decided te have the ‘members wear their darkest suits with white shirts and a black bow tie. The effect is much better than we had dared to hope for.” Announcement was made Thursday that Clarion E. Larson, director of the Bismarck Juvenile band, would play the piano accompaniments for a few numbers at tonight’s entertainment with Robert Kling at the piano for the presentation of “Going Home,” which will close the first part of the pro- gram.
