8 ‘MOLLY’ NOTES STH YEAR OF BUSINESS AT LOCATION HERE Took Charge of Filling Station in 1932; Now Has Five Steady Employes One of Bismarck’s outstanding gas ‘and service stations, Molly’s Service Station at the corner of Fourth Street and Thayer avenue, will celebrate its fifth anniversary under present man- agement Sunday. Its owner, Leo “Molly” de Rochford, came to North Dakota in 1907, and for several years worked out of Bis- marck as a commercial salesman. He played league baseball in this area for 25 years. On July 18, 1932, he took over control of the station. “Molly” took charge at the depth of the depression, when the station was doing very little business, and in five ars has built it up into one of the retail’ gasoline stations in North Dakota. Not only has its busi- ness been vastly expanded, but em- ploye salaries have been more than doubled. Products Rank High ‘Molly’s station handles Pure Oil Co. products exclusively, and is the auth- orized agent for Goodyear tires and batteries. Purol products are ranked among the highest by the state regula- tory department. Service work includes gas and oil, washing, lubricating, tire repairing, ‘and vacuuming upholstery. Molly’s station has one of the finest equipped wash racks in the state. All cars are washed in warm water under strong pressure. The tire re- pair shop is unusually well equipped. Five men are steadily employed at the station. They are De Rochford, owner; Elmer Soderberg, employed by De Rochford five years; Carl Soder- quist, employed three years; O. D. Monk, employed three years; and Al R. Henne, the newest employe. George Knudsvig is a part-time worker. To help celebrate his anniversary, ‘Molly is offering a chemically-treated ‘Woolvet mitten duster to each person buying five gallons of gasoline or more. Ordinarily retailing at 50 cents, the duster is equally adaptable to cars and household furniture.

July 16—(>)— Edward F. McGrady, assistant sec- retary of labor, urged Friday that both industrialists and labor unfons stick wholeheartedly to their collect- ive bargaining agreements. He blamed “unenlightened” indus- trialists for part of what some have called labor's “irresponsibility,” but he also called upon labor to build up discipline in its ranks, create “observance at all times of the sacredness of contracts,” and do its part to promote production and in- dustrial efficiency. Talking to the southern conference on human relations in industry, Mc- Grady said: “When agreements are reached, it will be responsibility of management to see to it that the individual super- intendent and foreman adheres not only in principle, but in action, to the conditions of such collective agreements as are formulated, McGrady also urged labor to stick by its bargains, STATE ASKS THAT If Leni Riefenstah! had been disturbed by the report, later denied, that she had been ordered to leave Germany because of Aryan” blood, the vivacious and no indication of displeasure when this picture was taken recently in Paris, where she presented an Exposition.

The detonation showered the flam- ing gasoline over a group of three or four firemen who had edged close to the burning tank, trying to bring the fire under control. The firemen were Tushed to hospitals. After the big tank exploded the fire swept toward another large storage tank. A few minutes later the second tank let go with a roar. All employes of nearby buildings had been ordered to safety shortly before the first detonation. Among the buildings affected was the one housing the editorial and printing departmetns of the Atlantic City Press Union newspapers. ‘The second explosion was followed quickly by a third as another gasoline storage tank went up in flames, No matter how it is packed, radium loses half its value in 1800 years, ATTACKS ON GIRLS TAKEN TO ASYLUM New Yorker’s Innocence of Rape and Murder Proved Despite His Confessions Fergus Falls, Minn., July 16.—(®)— Lawson Willis, whose reported “con- fessions” of attacking a Holdingford, ‘Minn,, girl and killing a ‘Minneapolis beauty culture student were subse- quently disproved by poliee, was in the State hospital for the insane here Friday.

Willlam Langer and to congress by Rep. William Lemke, it became known Friday. Langer’s request to Ickes proposed that the government turn over the property for use as a national guard camp and maneuver grounds. It also might be used to house the offices of the adjutant general and of the U. 8S property and disbursing officer who handles the fiscal relations of the government with the national guard. Motor vehicles, arms, clothing and other military impediments would’ be housed on the property and it would be available for other military uses. Langers’ application asks for “im- mediate custody an duse pending leg- islation” and Lemke's bill provides for the transfer of the property per- manently in exchange for state- owned lands located near Indian re- servations in the state. Adjutant General Heber L. Ed- wards, at whose request Gov. Langer made the application to Ickes, pointed out that armory facilities here are inadequate for the local tional guard establishment by rea- son of the addition of the head- quarters battery of the third bat- talion, 185th field artillery and that big guns assigned to Battery E, field artillery unit at Mandan, The property could be used to fa- cilitate the work of the guard an while it would not replace the regu- lar camp at Camp Grafton, near Devils Lake, it would be an import- ant adjunct to it, he said.
