At the proper time, 24 hours before serving begins, 12 hind quarters of beef will be lowered to the broiling grate. Over the top of the pit will go green poles to be covered with tarpaulin and dirt. Then the best beef that money can buy will broil and smoke for 24 hours. Naturally a heavy guard will be on duty during this delicate process. A portion ofthe beef which will be barbecued has been donated by two public spirited businessmen of the Mis- sourl Slope Area. They are John P. Berringer, veteran meat~ buyer ‘and merchant of Dickinson, and Chris Yegen of Bismarck. Experts to Have Charge In charge of the barbecue work will be Lewis F. “Pete” Lyman of Mandan and Frank Clausen of Bis- Marck, two experts in this work and well-known throughout the Slope area, So intent is the Junior Association upon making the barbecue the finest thing staged in Bismarck in many years that a rehearsal is planned for the young men and women who will do the serving. It is reasoned that a rehearsal will make it possible for the serving machinery to start off in high gear and stay that way for the entire period. At least 24 men and eight young women will be enlisted for the serving work and it is planned to serve Bismarck’s visitors in eight columns or lines. The Junior Association is prepared to feed at least 6,000 visitors if neces- Sery, Whittey said. W. Carroll, Valley City, Named Walton Leader Jamestown, N. D., July 27.—(P}— W. J.

D., July 27—(#)—Fate of Daniel Cusick, Bottineau drygoods merchant, charged with murder of Dr. Frank Remde, will probably be placed in the hands of a Towner county district court jury late Tues- day. Rebuttal arguments of State's At- torney John Kehoe of Towner county jury are all that remain before the case goes to the jury. Attorney Francis Murphy of Fargo summarized arguments of the defense Tuesday morning after Atty. Gen. P. O. Sathre outlined the state's case. Murphy reviewed expert defense testimony which attempted to prove Cusick was insane at the time of the shooting, caused by an “over-indul- gence of intoxicating liquor.” Sathre previously stated that no man could carry out the actions Cu- sick did without knowing what he was doing. He contended: it was “physically impossible” to be suffer- ing from delirium tremens and do the things Cusick did before, during and after the shooting. and Judge G.

No More Wheat Leans Ward declared he had “serious doubts that the RRA would continue to make loans to farmers in western North Dakote for the purpose of rais- ing wheat. Experience has proven that it is like pouring money down & rathole.” Citing the fact that eastern North Dakota was harvesting a good crop, Ward declared that the business of making grants in that section of the state probably would stop altogether. Asked if he thought that the cut- ting of personne! and caseloads was too drastic in the light of conditions and that estimates of recovery in this area were exaggerated, Ward asserted “that we will have to operate on the money allowed us” His attention was called to the fol- lowing facts compiled by the Tribune as the results of surveys by various ; agencies and persons: BELIEF 1,400 out of 1,600 farmers in Divide county on relief rolls, 1,189 out of 2,200 in Mountrail. 1,526 out of 2,400 in Williams. 1,037 out of 1,931 in McKensie. 1,248 of 2,100 in Morton, 562 of 1,300 in Burleigh. 613 of 1,390 in Stark. 351 of 700 in Sioux . pi at 2 16 counties that will harvest 10 per cent of all crops or less. 11 counties with very poor crops. 7 counties with poor crops. 11 counties with fair crops. 8 counties with good crops.

SPOHN’S 518 Ninth St. Phone 636 ‘MEATS Tribute for “protection” was exactly ‘at gun-point, or by strong-arm mobs. Windows were smashed, restaurants bombed, food poisoned, and proprie- tors were slugged and sometimes murdered — under the cold-blooded regime of such racket overlords, vice czars and gorillas as “Dutch” Schultz, Charlie “Lucky” Luciano, Nick Mon- tana, “Cock-Eyed Louie” Weiner ang others. At last, a New York county grand jury—appaled by tales of racketeer- ing terror which witnesses told them behind locked doors, and infuriated by their failure to get satisfactory ac- tion—set up a clamor. With the newspapers solidly behind them, a committee of six grand jurors called on Gov. Herbert H. Lehman and demanded the appoint- ment of a special. prosecutor of rackets, ‘Only One Man’ Governor Lehman at first asked four well-known lawyers, including Charles E. Hughes, Jr., to take the job. Unanimously, they turned it down. Unanimously, they said there was only one man to conduct such a “clean-up” crusade. They named him—Thomas E. Dewey. Dewey had already made a brilliant record as @ crime-fighter as United States attorney in New York, cli- maxed when he sent the notorious “Waxey” Gordon to prison on a 10- year sentence, piling up something more than $1,000,000 in illicit beer Profits and donating to Uncle Sam in taxes exactly ten and no hundreths dollars, 3 Gov. Lehman made the appoint- ment, and on July 29, 1935, Dewey began his Herculean task of cleaning out New York’s “Augean stables.” Leaving his $50,000-a-year private law practice to accept the regular salary of $16,695 for a prosecutor, Dewey “cajoled” four other young at- torneys into enlisting as his aides, and together they set up headquar- ters in the Woolworth building, with sound-proof rooms and special “un- tappable” telephone wires. His first act was a radio appeal for information, inviting the public to come to his office and tell him of racket “protection money” demands, Some business men failed to co-op- erate. i Preferred to Pay Frightened of gang “retaliation,” they preferred to pay than fight. Using his power of subpoena, Dewey scrutinized the books of first one business after another—and feted pote ia hed and white, how they had been paying. When they still refused to talk, to testify before the grand jury, he de- cided that the only way out was to fight terror with terror—to make honest men tell of their terror of by “terrorizing” them inte do- First Inter-State Parole Pact Made Little Rock, Ark., July 27. — (®) — Deserving parolees and probationers saw Tuesday widening horizons unger terms of interstate pacts, the first of which was completed between In- diana and Arkansas.

Governor Bailey of Arkansas said he planned to sign pacts with several States, including North Dakota. BLAIS IS DECLARED "MAN ON STREETCAR’ Two Who Rode With Pearl Os- ten on Last Trip Face Former N. D. Convict Minneapolis, July 27.—(%)—Gilbert Blais, former convict, was said at a police showup Tuesday, to be the man who was seen in company with Pearl Osten on a street car the night before her body was found ten years ago. Two persons who were riding on the street car that night, Mrs. Arthur W. Kampf, 1211 East Twenty-eighth street, and Robert 8. Rossler, 1328 Farquier St., St. Paul, a conductor, viewed Blais in the city jail. Mrs. Kampf, who was seated across from Miss Osten as the girl rode to- ward her home,“asked to have Blais smile. The prisoner complied. Mrs. Kampf said she was “pretty certain” that he was the man who sat with the girl on the car. She said that Blais’ face was fuller now. Rossler told detectives after the in- terview he was satisfied Blais is the man he saw on the street car. Captain of Detectives James Mullen sald a lie detector will be used on Blais. Blais, linked to the case by & former fellow convict at the North Dakota penitentiary, maintained he had nothing to do with the murder.
