Telephone 2200 Chinese Stop Japanese Northwest Farm Income ESTABLISHED 1873 ‘Tough’ Little Gang of Boys Arrested by Bismarck Police MAY LIMIT SPECLA SESSION 10 5-POINT PROGRAM OF FDR'S Such Step Would Dispose of Controversial Measures, Shorten Duration Washington, Oct. 25.—(/?)—Admin- istration leaders may propose limiting legislation in the special session of oongress to President Roosevelt's five- point program, informed persons said Monday. This would require adoption of a resolution by the house and senate. Whether the leaders decide to go ahead with it may depend on senti- Ment among the rank and file of members. The idea behind the proposal 1s that enactment of the administration program might be completed in the|is six-weeks session beginning Nov. 15 if all other subjects were held over for the regular session in January. What It Embraces The president's program embraces crop control, wage and hour regule- tions, government: reorganization, re- sional planning, and revision of the anti-trust laws. The principal effect of limiting the session to these matters would be dis- Placement of the controversial anc- lynching bill from second place on the senate calendar . It probably also would postpone enactment of new taxes to pay for a crop control pro- gram. The first business of the special tession, tf the legislation is drafted in time, will be consideration of a broad farm program. e President Roosevelt “ récommeitied | Saturday in a letter to the chairmen of the senate and house committees that the system should be permanent and that the present sot] conservation Lage dot be included. : In addition, he said, the legislation, should safeguard farm incomes and soil fertility, provide for’ an ever- normal granary to store reserve food supplies, and provide for control of | told. surplus crops while preserving export markets. . Mr. Roosevelt declared that any in- crease in farm aid costs should be met by new taxes, adding: “It is, of course, especially impor- tant that any new legislation should not unbalance the expected balancing of the budget.” Bismarck Hospitals Meet Strict Standard Chicago, Oct. 25.—The Bismarck and St. Alexius hospitals, Bismarck, and St. Joseph's hospital, Dickinson are among 17 North Dakota hospitals given 1937 approval by the American NEW JURY PANELS DRAWN AT NAPOLEON .

Amid efforts to bring the bickering pewers into harmony, two mysterious incidents in the Mediterranean creat- ed what some quarters regarded as the gravest situation since the Nyon accord established the anti-piracy patrol. The 2,413-ton French freighter Oued Mellah was bombed by an un- identified plane off Barcelona, Spain, Sunday and abandoned at sea by her |]: crew. Saw Bombs Dropped The master of the British liner Kaiser-I-Hind reported by radio from off the North African coast that a seaplane was seen “dropping two heavy bombs from whigh columns of water shot up at a great height; at a aaa which “apparently | sub- merged.” The British admiralty, after slying for several hours that it was without information, first announced that a British flying boat was observed aropping bombs “to. discover direction of the wind.” Later, reiterating denials that a submarine was tn- alter | votved,~‘the “adihiratty ‘watt the’ sen-{ glia gine 4c hal gee as 24 France” and Italy, long at logger- heads in the non-intervention com- mittee, were committed Sunday to po- |; licies that may keep them apart in negotiations. over the withdrawal of foreign fighters from Spain. Forecasts Collapse Authoritative Fascist publications in Rome asserted that refusal of the non-intervention committee to accept Italy's figure of 40,000 as the numb=r of Italian troops in Spain would mean the collapse of negotiations. Premier Camille Chautemps 0% France warned that France was de- termined to defend her interests, by force jf necessary. Es) ly “in the grievous affair of Spain,” he said “violations of justice cannot be re- newed without constraining France and Great Britein to renew their liberty of action.” Well-informed quarters expressed belief that the many-sided situation left Eden no hope of finding a > promise before the non-in session Tuesday.

The income estimates do not include gov- ernment payments. The district in- cludes Minnesota, North Dakota, South Dakote, Montana and sections of Wis- consin and Michigan.
