Charles Woodbridge of Phila- deiphia, Pa. general secretary of the Independent Board of Presbyterian Foreign Missions, addressed a popu- lar meeting attended by about 100 persons in the evening.

He gave illustrations of the departure from the faith of the regu- lar boards and agencies of the Pres- byterian Church of the U.S.A. and called for the support of the newly erected which was set up for defense of the doctrine.

Members of the board, composed of Governor Walter Welford, Attorney General P. O. Sathre and State Audtor Berta Baker, agreed to assist the program in “every way possible.” It was pointed out that the board last year granted authorization to permit mining of coal on public lands upon payment of 10 cents a ton to the state. “This means,” board members said, “that county welfare boards can authorize clients to go on the public land, mine coal and the relief board will pay 10 cents per ton.” Governor Welford declared that in addition to this the state welfare board has worked out a plan with private owners where these relief clients can mine coal for the owner in exchange for coal they will obtain. The mining of coal on public lands, however, must be authorized by the welfare board following application of various relief clients. Nominations to N. D. P.T.A. Posts Listed Minot, N.

September 29, 1936 Editor, Tribune: In the “Both Sides of the Campaign” column on the editorial page of the Bismarck Tribune of September 28, Representative Chester C. Bolton crit- icises the use of motion pictures to show what WPA is doing in its var- ious divisions, May I state the situ- ation in North Dakota. . A member of the staff who has al- ways been interested in the use of a camera, including amateur movies, was so much impressed with WPA Projects visited by him in the course THURSDAY, OCTOBER 1, 1986 up anything, secured in either ways I ‘am deadly opposed to too much rule? ‘Yes, say most people, the majority should rule; but we are a representa- of his work that he suggested that at |’),, '@ very small sum an eight millimeter motion picture film might be made which would be shown as occasion of- fered throughout the state, not for propaganda but in order that work- ers might see themselves on the job and that they and the public might get an idea of the breadth and variety of WPA work which would be im-| possible for anyone to obtain without making a very long trip. This idea was approved and a two- reel motion picture was made. The film cost $2.50 for fifty feet, and as four films were needed for each reel, the cost was $10 per reel. These pic- tures have proved of great value to foremen who have seen through these movies how other projects, similar to theirs, are operated. It has been a distinct joy to the workers themselves, and a stimulus on their part, and it has given the public generally a visual report of how the money is being spent. I believe that such reports are necessary and that this motion pic- ture, made at small expense, repre- sents a legitimate expenditure. I am sending you this communica- tion since a large number of people in North Dakota have seen the minia- ture movies to which I have referred and from reading Representative Bol- ton’s article they might infer that these pictures were made at large ex- pense. Sincerely yours, ‘ THOMAS H. MOODIE, State Administrator, DEFENDS OPEN SEASON Bismarck, N. D. Sept. 29, 1036. Editor, Tribune: If one will closely observe the, hunting proclamation recently re- eased by the State Game and Fish Department, he will notice that the shooting of grouse, our only native game bird found in Burleigh county, is prohibited. The season is open on Ring-neck pheasants and European partridges only. The daily bag limit is very conservative, not more than three birds in the aggregate of one species can be taken in a single day. ‘A small portion of the county south of No. 10 is open to five birds, ring necks only, This means that should you go hunting, south of this road you will be lawfully éntitled to take 5 ring neck pheasants in one day. Should you hunt elsewhere in the county you ate entitled to 3 pheasants and 2 par- tridge or to 3 partridge and 2 pheas- ants. You are not allowed more than one day’s limit in your possession. These are drastic restrictions and are so intended to be so as to leave an adequate surplus of seed birds in our covers for propagating purposes. The left over birds from this open season will be definitely assisted by this open season, for, in reducing the alze of the individual coveys there will be more food for the’ surviving members this winter. Ring-neck pheasants and European partridges were introduced into this state and into Burleigh county par- ticularly by the hunting and fishing fraternity to provide additional sport ‘and recreation for themselves and their sons and daughters. They paid for these birds with their own money. They are now paying their own money in contributions to feed and shelter campaigns throughout the whole state for the descendants of these first introduced birds, It is un- fair to these men and women to ab- solutely prohibit them hunting these birds.

FROM A DAIRYMAN’S WIFE Bismarck, N. D., Sept. 20, 1936. Editor, Tribune: I am writing this to ask how many of the consumers of ilc @ quart pas- teurized whole milk having a cream content of 3.5 per cent butter fat in Bismarck realize that the producer of that same milk receives but 4c a quart for it? i For this 4c quart he must feed and care for his cows, milk them: filter the milk immediately and cool it as quickly as possible by cold run- ning water or ice, Next he must de- liver it in a closed car or truck in a cordance with the city milk ordinance. Out of this 4c he must feed a milk- producing ration, Grain of this type costs from $2.00 to $2.50 per 100 Ibs. at the local feed store. When pastures were burnt up by the sun hay had to be fed to keep up the milk flow at all. This hay costs from $12 to $16 per ton and more when it has to be hauled to the farm. He must own a car in order to de- liver the milk on schedule at the pasteurizing plant as, rain or shine, 90 in the shade or 40 degrees below, your babies want milk, Somehow he must buy gasoline and oil with which to run it. ‘Well, consumers, do you wonder how any producer is going to feed himself and family on what is left of your 4c? The truth is he doesn’t, but has to do one or maybe both of two things. Either he must go on relief to get food and clothing for his family or apply to the government for live- stock feed loan, mortgage his cows again and pay some mure interest if and when his ship ever does come home. Most of the milk producers have had to get work on the WPA to live at all later and prepare a bit for winter. Now, readers, I'll bet in your opin- ions you have felt that this WPA work was for destitute farmers who were not able to market any produce at these times on account a fat drouth, but, did you know that fe men who deliver from 60 to 100 quarts { of whole milk per day to the pasteur- plants can’t even pay the cost of producing it, let alone buy food and clothing for a family, not to mention interest on any of their mortgages, at the present price? To come to the object of this letter: Milk consuming. Readers, would you willing to pay 12c per quart and insist that your milk desler pass on stly to the producer? al en In the Day's Photo More intent upon admiring his running mate’s hair ribbon than In posing for the camera was Gary Elwin Button (right) who scored 98.74 to win the fowa body health championship at the state fair at Des Moines. / Sharing the honor was Shirley Ann Ellis (left) of Des Moines, who rated 98.60.
