POLLOCK
ISSUES ORDER
First State Bank of East
Grand Forks Holds the
Mortgage.

An order enjoining the First State
bank Of East Grand Forks from fore
closing a third mortgage for $4,000 on
the Grand Forks auditorium was issu-
ed Monday by Judge C. NJ. Pollock of
Fargo.
h building is owned by the Grand
Forks Oratorio society. which asked
Judge Pollock to grant the injunction.
The allegations made by the society,
are that Hatcher Bros. to whom the
mortgage was originally issued are
debtors to the society for a subscrip-
ton of $500. n hat the interest rate
on the mortgage is higher than the
legal rate.
AS a result of the Injunction the
bank will have to institute regular
foreclosure proceedings in the district
court.
There are several mortgages against
the building. That which the bank is
now trying to foreclose. was original
ly given in the form Of twenty notes.
each for 500. one maturing every
year for twenty years.
The mortgage provided that when
ever payment on n of the notes fail
ed h entire mortgage might be fore
closed. The society now maintains
that the sum of the interest on the
notes makes the rate usurious,
The mortgage was originally given
to Hatcher Bros. who later disposed of
it to the East Grand Forks bank.
The case will probably be heard in
the district court this fail.

Fargo. y. D.. Aug. l2.-North Da-
kota residents will get no rebate on
fares between points in this state and
Minnesota paid since the decision Of
the court in the Minnesota rate case.
in the opinion of w. a. StutSman of
the state railway commission now IN
session here.
Mr.. Stutsman said today that the
railroads had voluntarily established
low rates between points in this state
and Minnesota. which would more
than offset the difference made by the
lower Minnesota rates.
In other word the rates in force
are no higher than they would be if
the roads charged the full legal rate
allowed in each state.
For this reason Mr.. Stutsman said
he did not him that the patrons of
the roads between the two states were
entitled to any rebate.

= SHIP EQUIPPED WITH
= WATER BELL SAUNDERS

popular Electricity
In 1926 we find a record that two
scientists, Calladon and Sturm, wanted
to find the velocity of sound in water,
s othey submerged a bell and struck
it with a hammer and listened for
the sound by placing one end of a
common ear trumpet in the water,
holding the other end to the ear. Per-
haps they knew or had read of a
Scotch scientist who. j t is said, in 1867
stuck his head into the water of a lake
near Glasgow and heard the ringing
OF a large hand bell submerged 1905
feet away.
This idea, though simple, was not
developed commercially until recently.
Apparatus is now made such that boats
equipped can pick up the sound Of a
submerged bell and determine the di-
rection from which the sound is COM
ing.
On each side Of the ship, near the
bow, and well below the water line, is
a small cast iron tank filled with wa
ter. in which hang two microphones.
The distance Of the tank from the
stem varies from twenty to n hun
dred and fifty feet. according to the
shape and size of the ship. Eacn
microphone is electrically connected
with an indicator box in the pilot
house or chart room. The bell sound,
coming through the water. passes
through the skin Of the ship, enters
the water in the tank and is picked
up by the m~icrophones. which In turn
transmit 1t to the indicator box.
Switches in the indicator box enable
the observer to listen alternately to
the sound picked up by the apparatus
n tell the direction from which A.
comes.
