Premier Mussolini's nation, which Thursday begins its eighth month un- der the war penalties, was declared by economists to be as strong now as before the League of Nations con- demned her aggression in East Africa. Political circles expressed belief the sanctionist ranks would gradually crumble, regardless of what action the league council and assembly decide upon at Geneva late this month, Time will bring not only a factual acceptance of the new empire, they declared, but also a break in the sanctionist walls until Italian com- merce resumes its normal activities. Diplomatic and economic Fascist sources listed developments which the application of war penalties has brought to Rome, ‘They include: 1, Loss of some foreign markets eee may or may not be regained iter. 2. A tremendous effort to develop Italian raw materials and discover synthetic substitutes for commodities cut off by sanctions, 3. Transformation of the nature of her imports, eliminating luxuries al- most entirely from the list and con- centrating on necessary and available raw material. MOSIER'S BODY IS TAKEN FROM RIVER Interment Made in St. Mary's Cemetery Following Rites Monday Morning Just one week after it had claimed the life of Jerome Charles Mosier, 38- year old Bismarck man, the Missouri river gave up his body here Sunday afternoon. The body was taken from the river about 5:30 p. m. after it was seer floating past the Northern Pacific railroad bridge by Mrs. Frank Howe, who lives nearby. Mrs. Howe summoned Martin Swindling and Ed Gandy, who were working on the river's edge. They, with the aid of Frank Howe, Jr., brought the body to shore and noti- in|fied Sheriff Fred Anstrom. The railroad bridge is approxi- mately four miles downstream from the point at which Mosier was drowned when the boat in which he and L, L. Diles, also of Bismarck, were riding, capsized, throwing the men into the stream. Private funeral services were held Monday morning with Rev. F. E. Logee, pastor of the First Presby- terian church officiating. Interment: was made in St. Mary’s cemetery be- side the bodies of his parents. Mr. Mosier was born July 26, 1897 at Ada, Minn. He moved to Bis- marck as @ young boy and received his education in the city schools here. He enlisted in the United States Marine corps in May 1918 and was stationed for a time at Mare Island and Galveston, Texas. Returning to Bismarck after the World War he took up farming in which occupation he was engaged at the time of his death. He leaves three sisters, Mrs. Mar- shall Conner, 615 Avenue F, Mrs. W. E, Hageman of Grand Forks.

Landon turned his thoughts Monday to an eastward attack in forthright campaign for the presi- dency. The plan of battle remained in an embryo stage, pending councils Mon- day and Tuesday, but the Republican nominee was reported attracted to the idea of speaking in several large eastern cities, to precede a probable western tour. John D. M. Hamilton, manager of the Landon campaign, was due here Monday from Chicago, where he re- plied to a critical statement by James A. Farley, the Democratic campaign general. Expected Tuesday to round out the mode of attack are Col. Frank Knox of Chicago, the vice presidential nom- inee, and the subcommittee in charge of campaign strategy. Hamilton to Talk First Authoritative sources indicated ‘Monday the first speeches would be made by Hamilton, then Knox, with Landon swinging in for the final salvos about August 15, after giving largely of his time to a special session of the Kansas legislature in July. Hamilton announced an office would be established in Chicago and that he expected to be there “about 60 per cent of the time.” ‘The governor and Mrs. Landon en- Joyed a typical Sunday, at church and at home. After the Rev. Harold C. Case, the youthful pastor of the First Meth- dist church, finished hig sermon on “living by consent to the best,’ I don told a group of reporters “that young man is going places.” Says Farley Peeved Hamilton, in his statement at Chi- cago, charged that Farley tried “for months to prevent the nomination” of Governor Landon and was “clearly dissatisfied” with his nomination and the party's platform. “If it's going to be a dirty cam- paign,” Hamilton said, “we'll let him (Farley) set the tempo of it.” The Hamilton statement said fur- ther: “I am not surprised that Mr. Far- Jey should have seen fit to refer to Governor Landon’s interpretation of the monetary plank as a hazy one, for I know that anything having to do with a sound monetary system is hazy to Mr. Farley.” CONGRESS SEEKING QUICK ADJOURNMENT ITALY IS HOPEFUL ‘Landon to Launch Campaign in East i Noted Author Dies G. K. CHESTERTON One of the most versatile of Eng- lish writers, Gilbert K. Chesterton, better known simply as “G. K.” died Sunday. He was 62 years old. ee *% WRITING CAREER OF GK. CHESTERTON IS ENDED BY HIS DEATH Noted British Literary Light At- tracted Attention by His Versatility Beaconsfield, Eng., June 15.—(?)}— The versatile literaty career of Gil- bert K, Chesterton, 62, was closed Monday. “G. K.” as he was generally known, died Supday. For several years during the early part of his career, Chesterton was somewhat of a puzzle in the field of English literature, but with his admir- ers constantly growing in numbers and his work better understood, he eventually came to be known in Eng- land as the most lovable and boyish character among British authors. Tried to Be an Artist His own idea of himself was that he was born to attain fame as an artist, He made a determined effort to reach that goal by leaving 8t. Paul’s school, where he studied as a Leaders Hope to Get Away by Saturday Despite Fights on Important Bills Washington, June 15.—(?)—Amid expressions of hope but doubt for Saturday night adjournment, assembled Monday after a week's respite to tackle anew its knotty leg- islative problems. Teaders of the house and senate launched an intensive drive to wind up the work of the 74th congress be- fore the Democratic national conven- tion next week. One of the most stubborn obstacles is the strife-torn tax bill on which conferees worked throughout last week with little material progress to- ward a compromise on controversial Points. Conferees on the $2,430,829,000 de- ficiency-relief bill did not meet last week and still have several knotty Problems to solve. Many Bills in Conference In addition congress has yet to act on conference reports on the treas- ury-postoffice, the interior de ment and the District of Columbia appropriation bills as well as the Robinson-Patman chain Tegu- latory measure, the anti-lobby bill and a number of minor bills. The Vinson-Guffey. coal bill, de- signed to replace the Guffey coal act invalidated by the supreme court, has not yet come up in either house or senate and some members seemed de- termined to stay here until it is pass- ed. » Will remain open un-/| the event adjournment sine not be reached by Saturday night. youth, to attend the art classes at the Slade school, London. After filling the role of art critic for “The Bookman” for a time he discovered that his natural bent was toward literature and he again changed his course to devote himself to cultivating that means of expression, both in verse and in prose. Having done occasional reviewing and had some experience in a pub- Usher's office, Chesterton in 1900 pro- duced & volume of clever poems under the title, “The Wild Knight.” It was about that time he definitely took to Journalism as @ career and became a regular contributor of signed articles to the liberal journals, “The Speaker,” and “The Daily News.” Had Combative Spirit From the first Chesterton estab- Ushed himself as a writer with a dis- tinct personality—combative, uncon- ventional and dogmatic—with the re- sult that his writings were much sought and were published in some 15 ‘London newspapers and magazines. In addition to his original style, the author attracted further attention by his versatility, his work ranging from fiction to fugitive verse and from ar- tistic criticism to discussions of ethics and religion. His reputation was fur- ther enhanced by the republication of ‘much of his work in a series of vol- umes in which his acute criticism, pungent style, humor and his ca- pacity for laying down the law with ‘unflagging impetuosity stood out. The interest excited by Chesterton’s ‘work and views was indicated by an analysis of them in an PLAZA YOUTH, LINTON WOMAN ARE KILLED IN AUTO ACCIDENTS 12 Others Listed as Toll for Northwest and Nearby Canada Reaches 22 CONSTRUCTION MAN IN JAIL Is Held Pending Investigation of Death Mrs. Gabriel Richter at Linton ‘Two North Dakotans and 12 other Northwest residents were dead Mon- day as the result of automobile ac- cidents over the week-end.
