Most state treasurers found that mot only were operating budgets out lof the “red,” but substantial trim- ‘ming was under way in bonded in- debtedness that reached the stagger- nd total of almost three billions in Tax collections shooting upward with the rising curve of business was the principal reason advanced for the brighter financial picture. The Oregon treasury showed a $13,- 000,000 balance, largest in history. California sliced its operating deficit by $17,000,000. Iowa's $5,400,000 bal- ‘ence was its best in six years. These were typical of the bright spots revealed in an Associated Press survey comparing current statements with peak deficits, Despite bond retirement programs in many states, issues outstanding were at higher levels in some states because of highway and building con- struction and emergency projects brought on by depression needs. Minnesote’s current debt was $134,- 000,000, up $46,000,000, and Mississ- ippi’s stood at roughly $48,000,000, up five millions in the face of a $42,000,- 000 highway issue. The states making the largest total bonded debt reductions from peak tarks included: North Dakota $43,300,000 cut to $29,217,000. Bismarck Ranks High In Sewer Sanitation Of the 27 major U. 8. cities having ordinances designed to “keep the sewer out of the home,” Bismarck is near the top of the list, announces the Modern Home Institute after completing a national survey of Plumbing codes. More than one-half ot the 51 major cities canvassed in the survey have measures on their books curbing the use of the unpro- tected drain. | Bismarck requires floor drain traps to have an automatic priming device to insure fresh water seal. All drain traps in this city must be vented. Health authorities all over the U. 8. united in pointing out that the base- ment drain is a direct connection be- tween the vermin-infested, gas filled sewer and the home. The common U-shaped trap is the only barrier barring the entry of gas and vermin into the home from the sewer, and Schilling The battle is on—Erl Roman, famous sportsman, ve. 600 lbs. of savage, fighting, blue marlin!

Ladd said Monday. Ladd stated that of 63 beers sampled only 14, or 22 per cent, passed the tests, but that seven additional would have passed except for being slightly short on volume, “The industry as a whole shows Slightly less rigid control than was evident in 1936 when all beers were brewed to a maximum of four per cent of alcohol by volume,” he as- serted. Under the North Dakota lew any article of food or drink is classed as misbranded “if the label fails to bear the quantity or proportion of alcohol.” The percentage of alcohol by volume is the approved form. Since the first of the year 77 samples of malt beverages have been analyzed by the state department, including 64 beers, 11 ales, one stout and one near beer, Ladd said.
