LIKELY TO BE SETTLED

Theodore Dumba, the Austria-Hungar-

published reports that he has taken
part in movement to interfere with
the production Of war materials in the
United States.
Ambassador Dumbas request for a
conference reached Mr.. Lansing late
today. 1t is understood here that he
wishes to make an explanation regard
ing dispatches sent by him to the for
eign office at Vienna, and seized by
British authorities from James Arch1-
bald, an American war correspondent,
who was acting as his messenger.
These dispatches, which are said to
reveal that the ambassador knew OF
suggested plans which were handicap
ping munition plants and had under
taken to warn Austro-Hungarians that
they were. violating criminal codes OF
their native country by accepting en-
ployment in the United States war
factories have raised a subject for
which there is no precedent in Ameri-
can diplomacy. The question of dual
citizenship long disputed between this
government and several European
powers is involved and because OF
this, the matter will be approached
without prejudice when the ambassa-
dor arrives. '..''

MUST LEVY FOR. ~"
BETTER FARMING
Ward County Commissioners
Lose Out in Mandamus
Suit

Minot, Sept. 6.-Judge X. E. Leigh
ton of the district court has rendered
a decision on the case OF William
Westlake against the county commits
sioners of Ward county, commonly
known as the "better farming case,' -
in which it was sought by mandamus
proceedings to compel the county COM
missioners to levy tax for the sup
port of the better farming movement
in this county. Judge Leighton holds
that the commissioners asked that
they make the levy. The levy was ac-
cordingly laid for that year. This year
the number Of petitions did not reach
the requisite number and the question
arose as to whether or not the petit
ton filed last year was binding upon
the commissioners this year. The COM
missioners took the view as a body
that the petition from last year was
not binding in mandatory sense. The
vote of the members Individually was
three against making the levy and
two for making it.
The mandamus proceedings were
instituted by William Westlake and a
number of other farmers of the coun-
ty who sought to have the levy made.
They contended that the law was a
perpetual statute until repealed by
the legislature, but with local op'
tion provision so that when once set
in motion by the taxpayers of the
county it became permanent in its ef-
fects until repealed or amanded.
This is the view of the law taken
by Judge Leighton, and his decision
in effect is that the law requires the
county commissioners to make the
levy each year without further peti-
tions.
