A bill, carrying an appropriation of
$4,000 for a Minnesota building. at the

The bill provides for the. appoint
ment of a board of managers to be
named by the governor. There are to
be three members of the board, and
provision is made that they serve with

each is 10 be confined to $1,000. The

of the board. Provision is made for a

Mr.. De Laittre had the bill referred
to the committee on appropriations.
Chairman Roberts is said to believe
that the expenditure in advertising the

good investment, and while he has
declined to commit himself, there is a
strong probability of the bill being rec
commended for passage.
