i 4 » Tax Relief association Wednesday EXHIBITS IN SLOPE * SHOW MUCH HIGHER Birds of High Quality, Says Frank Moore More than twice the number ot turkeys shown last year, fewer 4-H eltt exhibits and approximately the Samy sumber of entries in the regu- lar poultry divisions were being judged Wednesday by Frank E Moore of Fargo at the annual Slope Poultry Show in the Memoria) build- ing here. Because of the decrease in the number of 4-H entries, Secretary Phil Starkle of the Slope Poultry as- fociation, did not expect that the entry list this year would exceed the new all-time record set in 1936. Moore, extension specialist from the North Dakota Agricultural col- lege, stated that this yeai’s entries “were of high quality and would com- pare favorably with any previous year’s exhibits despite the drouth conditions unfavorable to the breed ing of flocks this year.

No rites will be held it was stated Wednesday by clergy at the migsion, although it was believed the Indian burial ceremony would be conducted. Meanwhile the twelfth victim, Phil Feather, confined at the agency hos- pital, is believed on his way to re- covery. No investigation, other then the inquest, has been launched, O. C. Gray, superintendent, at the agency said. Disposition of the cases is up to ‘Benson county authorities and no In- ‘dian agency officials since Fort Tot- be is classified as an open reserva- n.

Members of the senate and assem- bly held party caucuses during the night to spar for advantage in the organization of the two houses after the formal opening of the ‘session at noon Wednesday. Gov. Philip F. LaFollette, who was accused of bringing about the dis- charge of Frank, awaited the vote on organization with interest. He ex- pected it to indicate whether he can muster out of scattered party lines a working majority which his own Pro- gressive party does not have. Some Democrats and Republicans have proposed an investigation of the Frank ouster, and several bills to re- organize the university board of regents to take some of the appoin- tive power from the governor have been drafted. Gov. LaFollette’s colleagues have assured him he will control the as- sembly. C ORTINUE D Gray Tells Solons State Treasury Is tery with Reverend Wonanberger of |* Burten K. Wheeler and James E.

On Jan. 1 the balance sheet of the equalization fund for the period March 1§, 1985 to Dec. 3f, 1936, showed re- ceipts of $1,038,865.41 from hail fund transfer; $102,948 from mineral leasinS transfer; $2,650,000 from sales tax transfer and $6.30 interest.

Members of the public welfare board asserted funds were depleted not prove detrimental as the board was advancing aid through credit to be repaid when the funds are forth- coming. Appointment of J. K. Murray, Mott attorney, to the. post of state tax commissioner was under consideration Wednesday by the members of the senate state affairs committee. Under the law the appointment, Tuesday by Gov. William Langer, must be approved by that body. The matter was considered in ex- ecutive session and then referred to the committee for a report. This is the first time such a procedure has been followed by the senate on such matters in many years. Murray, an active adviser to the governor, already had been desig- nated legal adviser to the Nonpar- tisan caucus, succeeding C. G. Bangert of Enderlin, who had been doing this work for the League executive com- mittee. Whether he would continue in that capacity as well as in the tax commissioner job, assuming his ap- pointment is confirmed, has not been disclosed.
