Dak., December 29— North Dakota’s government was with- out & home today and many valuable State and historical documents had been destroyed as a result of fire which burned the capitol. Once the pride of the Dakotas, the four-story brick structure, which dated from the ploneer territorial days of nearly half & century ago, was burned yesterday almost on the eve of the con- vening of the State Legislature, which was to have considered a proposal for a new building.

Loss Exceeds $1,000,000. Estimates of the loss to the State ran upward from $1,000,000. The building itself was insured for $430,000 and its contents for $298,000. However, State officials said it would cost at least §1,- 000,000 to replace only such documents as could be duplicated from other files. Among the papers lost were records | of $55,000,000 in State Land Depart- ment investments and details of $40, 000,000 in reports of the State treas- urer. The fisst unit of the building was constructed in 1884, five years before North Dakota was admitted to the Union, as the seat of government for Dakota Territory. Laying of the corner stone late in 1883 was one of the outstanding events of the Territory’s frontier days. In- dians, soldiers, gamblers and frontiers- men rubbed shoulders with Gen. U. S. Grant, H. M. Teller, Secretary of the Interior; the German, Swedish and Danish Ministers to the United States; James J. Hill, railroad magnate, and United States Senators. Britain Is Represented. ‘Ten members of the English Parlia- ment and James Bryce, later British Ambassador to the United States, rep- resented England, and Germany sent a delegation of 30. A cablegram was sent to Berlin to Chancellor Bismarck, after whom this city was named. For five years the building was the ruling house of the Territory. Dissen- sion led to a split and in 1889 the States of North and South Dakota were formed, with their respective capitals in Bismarck and Pierre. Various additions were made to the original State house here, but numerous :flgx to get a new structure always a have done with motors and scanning disks. He emploves special vacuum tubes. To harness the almost infinite flying dot of television he uses a “disector” and an “oscilight.” ‘ These are the vacuum tubes that dis- quired in other systems. The “disector” photo-electric cell which contains com- ponents for scanning an image elec- trically. Pear Shaped Receiving Tube. The “oscilight” is a pear-shaped re- ceiving tube, containing a picture screen 4 inches square in the flat end. It reverses the process of the “disector” receiver, method whereby he can send television | wide, half the width required for sound. In effect, this is done by altering the wave form as it'leaves the transmitter. It is changed back to its original form in_the receiver. Farnsworth said the method could be adapted for wire line distribution of programs, similar to that used for sound. Like other systems, the Farnsworth method requires radio transmitters and receivers which function the same zs they do with microphones and loud- | speakers. The picture reproduced seems to be | systems This is due, Farnsworth explained, to the fact that his picture contains 300 mechanical scanners are used. May Attach to Any Receiver. The Farnsworth reproducer may be designed for attaching to any receiver. It requires a tuning system and an amplifier. ‘The designer explained it could bhe built either into a receiver for tele- vision alone, or combined with a set that would pick up synchronized sound and vision. Instead of the pink tinge of the pic- ture reproduced by the neon lamp, the Farnsworth tube makes its copy in black and white with only a slight yel- lowish shading.

MONDAY, URGES JOURNALISM BE RATED HIGHER Prof. Drewry Would Raise Newspaper Men to Status of Professional Workers. C By the Associated Press. BOSTON, December 29.—Prof. John E. Drewry of the University of Georgia opened the annual conference cf the American Association of Teachers of Journalism today with a plea that jour- nalism be made a profession. Prof. Drewry, who is president of the association, also advocated a required | course in the high schools of the coun- try on the appreciation of the newspa- per and magazine. Would Correct Public View. “To require of every American high school and college student a course in the appreciation of the newspaper and magazine would be a drastic move,” he said, “but it would be a move of ines- ! timable value both for him and for us. It would go far in correcting the public picture of journalism, and consequently, I think, would exalt the popular estima- tion of newspapers and the newspaper world. “Education in journalism, which plays so vital a role in the life of every man, is as desirable for the masses as is education in history, in civics, in the sciences and in the languages. Advocating financial returns in pro- portion to required training, Prof. Drewry said: “Before newspaper work is to be | wholly attractive to ambitious and in- | telligent youngsters there must be | evolved a new theory of economics in Jjournalism. Asks for Co-operation. “Then, and only then, will newspaper work cease to be a stepping stone to other things which lure the stars of the city room with the magnetism of cash.” | The professor called upon the news- | paper man himself to put journalism |on a professional basis. merican Society of Newspaper he said, “is the organization which, in my judgment, should and can set up the machinery for placing jour- | nalism sotindly on a professional basis. | But_in proposing this splendid work to the American Society of Newspaper Editors I should like to ask for a co- | operative part in any organized effort to make journalism the profession which it potentially is, and thus forever remove the cause of our present in- | feriority eomplex.” i g PHILADELPHIA BANK CLOSED, BUT SOLVENT| Reward Oflered for Arrest of Per- son Starting False Rumors That Caused Run. By the Associated Press. PHILADELPHIA, December 29.—The | Aldine Trust Co. at Twentieth and Chesnut streets, with two branches in West Philadelphia, did not open for business today.

Its deposits. according to the last statement issued in September, totaled $6,400,000. +The bank is believed to.be solvent, ‘accordlng to a statement of the directors | today, and it is believed “all depositors will ultimately be paid in full.” Officials stated that “a wave of | persistent and malicious rumors” for | more than a week started a run that made closing necessary. A reward of $10,000 has been offered by the trust company “for information | which results in the arrest and conviction of any person or persons guilty of having disseminated these | | false rumors.” Depositors to Be Paid. NEW YORK, December 29 (#).—The board of directors of the closed Chelsea | Bank & Trust Co. issued a statement last night declaring the assets of the | bank, in their opinion, “are more than sufficient to pay all depositors in full.” The closing was attributed to “malicious rumors, which left the State superintendent of banks no choice other than to close the institution for the preservation of its assets,” despite the fact that the bank was “safe, sound and solvent.” Gary, Ind,, Bank Closed.
