RELIEF APPLICANTS HONEST, CHIEF SAYS Moodie Requests Information on Any Chiselers; Needy Want Work, Not Dole That needy persons want work and not the dole has again been proved in} the emergency drouth program’ for farmers, representatives of federal ‘agencies said Monday in commenting 9n reports of relief chiseling. The large majority of drouth aid Applicants are absolutely honest in reporting the facts regarding their needs, Thomas H. Moodie, WPA Ad- ministrator, said. Moodie asked that any persons honestly believing they have evidence of chiseling report the matter to him. Resettlement administration offi- clals who are required to pass upon the eligibility of farmers for grants or work, after applications have been taken by county welfare board execu- tives, have generally been taking on small families for emergency grants while ‘passing on to WPA the larger families. While the grant is of course smaller than the WPA wage, it was stated that desire for work itself is the dominant motive. Some Turned Down A few applications are being turned down in every county by resettlement committecs where it was felt that the applicants could age. Some ap- plicants have the “I’m entitled to it attitude” and others say “We have it coming.” The majority, cropless for several years, are accepted without question. Families still able to help themselves. are not eligible, Moodie explained. Also, only one security job can be giv- en per family. It remains as it has always been, on a basis of need. Fail- ure to understand this hasbeen the cause of disappointment to some. Moodie said he felt there were few intentional chiselers. Remove Two Chiselers “IT have not lost faith in human nature,” he declared. “In one county where there were numerous reports of chiseling, during the FERA, names were asked for. Several were actual- ly turned in by the public. Of these only two, on investigation, proved cor- rect. The two families thus reported were removed from the relief rolls. “Many persons now coming to the relief offices for certification have not hitherto been known, As staffs are inadequate in size and time is lack- ing for home visitation, decision has to be made pretty largely on the basis of the applicant’s statement. There will undoubtedly be some who will over or under state, intentionally. If there are such we want to know-who they are. “Persons knowing of fraudulent statements should report name, ad- dress and facts. We do not want any generalized statements such as ‘a lot of people are on WPA who don’t need It” We will examine carefully any case reported to us where the person re- porting honestly thinks somebody is chiseling, if the names and addresses are correctly given.” Illustrates Farm Plight Moodie said he sympathized with North Dakota farmers in their pres- ent plight. He told of orie farmer in Adams county who had six milk cows, three dry cows, and eight spring calves, Whereas last year this farm- er did not have to start feeding his stock until Jan. 1, he will have to be- gin feeding this year by mid-Novem- ber at least because of pasture condi- tions and whereas the past spring he was able to turn his stock out to feed on April 1, he probably cannot turn them out in 1937 until June 1. He will well the three dry cows but will re- quire 24 tons of hay for the milk cows and eight tons for the calves. With hay at approximately $20 per ton, his hay bill will be $640. In addition he will have to spend about $44 for shorts or @ total of. $684. He cannot expect more than about $30 per month for cream checks. This farmer has kept himself off relief despite three con- secutive crop failures. Practically every farmer in south- western North Dakota is facing a similar situation, Moodie said.

Barnhart, assistant professor of journalism at np Uninesalty ‘of. Minnesota, told edi- tors of the southwest district of the North Dakota Press association in annual meeting here Saturday. “Advertising has contributed to better methods of production and dis- tribution through increased demand, and serves as a barrier te monopolis- tic growths within an industry,” Barnhart said. The Minnesota man also led discussion on newspaper typography and newswriting. H. D. Paulson, editor of the Fargo Forum and president of the state as- sociation, discussed current problems of the publishers and state associa- tion activities. With him was Mark 1. Forkner of Langdon, state secre- tary. . M. J. Connolly of New England was elected president of the district group, and Joe Loh of Richardton, vice pres- ident. Theo. Mark of Hebron was chosen secretary. A resolution urging the federal gov- ernment to give the newspapers the same recogniztion as other business enterprises, was adopted by the group. It was pointed out that the govern- ment, while aiding businesses through purchases for relief needs and other purposes, “expected” columns of free edvertising in newspapers, Bernstein’s Body Is Prepared for Burial Shawano, Wis., Aug. 3.—(4)—While 19-year-old Laverne Marks faced er- raignment on robbery charges in Ta- coma, Wash., Monday, the body of the chum police said he admitted slaying on an unmotivated impulse was pre- pared for burial in Brodhead.

Zion- Colonel Little Donat Donates Famous Double Ditch Area to His- torical Society - old Mandan village sites, one ee which is credited with being the largest ever established on the upper Missouri, have been acquired by the North Dakota Historical society and designated as state parks, Russell Reid superintendent, announced Mon- day. The Double Ditch village located 12 miles north of this city on the river road, was donated to the His- torical society by Col. C. B. Little, president of the organization. The Fort Clark site, 60 miles north of here and a mile northwest of the Present town of Fort Clark, was pur- chased from the state board of uni- versity and school lands, The Historical society now ,con- trols 41 state parks in North Dakota with acquisition of the two village sites, Reid said. Trenches Still Evident Remains of old _ fortification trenches at the Double Ditch village, known to old settlers as the Bour- gois site or Yellow Bank village, are still plainly evident, the superinten- dent stated. George Will, a director of the so- ciety, accompanied a party of Har- vard university archaeologists on an investigation of the site in 1905. The Bismarck man declared the village site was probably the best preserved of any found on the upper Missouri. He estimated the population at about 2,400 persons before smallpox ravaged the colony. Harvard scientists re- turned east with a large collection for Peabody museum, Will said. The Fort Clark site, believed to, have been established many years! later by Mandans, was one of their last strongholds on the upper Mis- souri, Reid stated. The viliage was abandoned in 1837 when smallpox raged through the settlement. Sur- vivors journeyed to Fort Berthold where Mandans, Hidatsa and Arick- arees joined for a great encampment. Visited Famed Men On the Fort Clark site was‘ also an American Co., post established by James Kipp to trade with the tribe. When the village was at its height it was visited by George Cat- lin, famous Indian artist and writer; Maximilian, Prince of Wied, Coblenz. German; John J.

Clapp, acting chief of the forest service, Monday disclosed plans to enlist farmers’ help in continuing work on the midwestern “shelterbelt.” “The 75,000,000 seedlings now grow: ing in the forest service’s ni Clapp said, “will be distributed only to farmers agreeing to plant them ac- cording to the shelterbelt's layout while work relief funds have been pro- vided to pay them for part of their ne in preparing the soil for plant> mii that it would be impossible to raise more seedlings because of the last congress’ requirement that the trees must be given away, Clapp asserted that about $470,000 was avail- able to keep up the nurseries, care for trees already set out, and pre- pare for planting seedlings. The funds include a $170,000 appropria- tion, $100,000 left over from the pre- vious work relief allotments, and a previously unannounced $200,000 al- lotment from the new $1,425,000,000 relief fund. - Because of congress’ refusal to ap- propriate money to continue the project, it had been considered vir- tually dead until Morris Cooke, head of the administration's great plains committee, disclosed last week that it was being considered as part of a long-range drouth relief program. To date, officials said, $3,000,000 of relief money has been spent on the shelterbelt, and 24,000,000 trees have been set out on a 1,100-mile belt run- ning from the Canadian border in North Dakota through South Dakota, Nebraska, Kansas and Oklahoma to ge Texas Panhandle. Clapp said the fact that 812 per cent of the trees set out had survived, despite the severe drouth this year, was “a good sign.” Logan and Lucas Lead In Kentucky Election |!

Lindbergh of His Day, of His Day, Famed Frenchman Inspired Ad- vances in Aviation Pein ee 3.—()—Louls Bleriot, , French air pioneer, and first to oe trip through the air in Notwithstanding the 18 years that intervened between their epochal flights, it is not unlikely that the names of Bleriot and Lindbergh will ‘be closely linked in aeronautical his- tory. By being the first to accomplish the seemingly impossible feat of their re- spective times, each was responsible for a direct move in the of aviation, Lindbergh’s interest toward flying is said to have been partly in- spired by the stories of Bleriot’s early fame. When the Spirit of St. Louis made its historic landing at Le Bour- get, the French’s flier’s name was one of the first to be uttered by the young American, How aviation advanced between those two flights is indicated by the fact that when Lindbergh spanned the Atlantic, Bleriot’s feat had become @ commonplace, every-day event, Born at Cambrai July 1, 1872, Ble- Tiot was the son of a manufacturer and thus came in contact with things mechanical since his boyhood. He went to a technical school and took part as a second lieutenant of artil- lery at Tarbes, he became interested in automobiles, After several years of experimenta- tion, he invented the automobile searchlight in 1896. Four years later the sight of the famous flying ma- chine built by Ader and exhibited in Paris, turned his attention toward the then infantile science of aviation. Year in and year out, Bleriot stu- died the problem of making a prac- ticable airplane. He conducted dozens of experiments at Issy-les Moulineaux and lost most of the fortune he had made with his automobile searchlight. In 1906, aided by two friends, he founded the first airplane factory in ance, Finally, on Sept. 17, 1907, his wild- jest dreams came true. He flew 186 meters in a monoplane built by his own hands. After that progress was rapid. Other young aviators and airplane construc- tors entered the field, but Bleriot, by & daring flight June 29, 1908, manag- ed to win the “Beginners’ Prize,” of 200 francs (then about $40), On Oct. 31 of the same year he startled the world by. making the first cross-country flight on record. ‘With one stop, he flew between Toury and Arthenay, @ distance of about 60 miles.

Lindbergh was reported by his Danish host Monday to be “already furious over the publicity the Danish press tries to give him.” ‘The Ametican flier, accompanied by Mrs. Lindbergh, arrived here Sun- day night from Berlin to visit Capt. Andreas Dam. “The telephones have chimed stead- ily since his arrival,” Captain Dam declared. “He does not understand why he cannot be left alone as in England.” The windows of Dam’s villa in sub- urban Charlottenlund were covered with thick curtains. Doors were open- ed only slightly to visitors, then shut again. The house, however, remained without a police guard. Lindbergh was understood to be planning to leave Copenhagen Wed- nesday to return Sunday for the opening of a medical congress at which he will exhibit the “mechanical heart” which he invented with Dr. Alexis Carrel of Rockfeller Institute, New York.
