Valley City Farmers
Raise Splendid Purse
for Fighting Leader

ginning of the arrangements for the
big convention in st. Paul of the
Equity Grain Growers word comes to
the Equity Exchange that a check for
$345 was received by Mr.. LOTUS, while
he sat up in his bed in the Eital hos
pital at Minneapolis. H
This amount is a gift of the farm
|ers near Valley City, N. D., as a slight
expression of appreciation of service
given the cause of cooperative mar.
keting and to encourage the gallant
battle Mr.. LOTUS is making to pro.
long his life.
Prominent among the list of men of
Valley City who contributed to the tes-
timonial are William Olson, Congress-
nan Geo. M. Young, John Mcintyre
and c. H. Noltimier. The great body
of the farmers of the Northwest, while
they may not show their appreciation
in this manner, feel deeply the condi-
ton in which Mr.. LOTUS has been
placed at this particular time. While
it is reported that he is slowly gain

Iilnes-Record Has
Strenuous Day

r. Thursday the Times-Record had one
of it's busiest days. The force of Is
worked early and late, but managed
to deliver on time. After the regular
Weekly edition in the morning came
the booster of 5000 copies. Then the
Daily had to be taken care of. Along
with this was the delinquent tax list
with supplements for the Fingal Her
aid. The bank statements were in to
keep us busy we suppose. At 4:30 SIX
automobiles backed up to the front
door to take out the carrier boys over
their routes. Their load of booster
papers could not be handled without a
conveyance, and the management de-
cided to give them a rapid transit de-
livery.
The regular run of ads and other
work had to be sandwiched in between
the larger jobs, and the capacity of the
plant was taxed to the utmost.
After it was all over and the last
edition was mailed out everybody was
relieved and happy because of delivery
on time without a hitch.
The management commends the EN-.
ployees for their good and efficient ser.
vice and thanks the advertisers and
patrons for their patronage and sup.
port.
While there was no profit in the un.
dertaking we felt under obligations as
the leading paper of the county to do
what we could for Bounteous Barnes,
and from the expressions and opinions
we have heard regarding the Special
Number we are very grateful and Just
a little bit proud.

Austria May Be In for

Washington, Nov. Is. - While the

trian reply to Ambassador Kenfeld's
inquiry concerning the circumstances
under which the Italian liner Ancona
was sunk, it was officially stated to.
day that the placing of Americans in
small boats on the high seas was not
regarded as taking them to place
of safety" within the meaning of the
term as used in international law.
In it's correspondence with Germany
over the Fry case, the American gov.
eminent expressed the view that open
boats do not constitute place of
safety. This was branded today by
an official Interpretation to apply to
American citizens whether travelling
on belligerents' or neutral ships.
Officials somewhat quallfed their
assertions by stating that if vessel
was destroyed within a few miles Of
shore, life boats would be regarded
as safe, but that whether conditions
and the opportunity given for pas.
sengers to be transferred even then
were pertinent circumstances.
From these limitations, it generally
was believed that the American gov-
eminent would develop the entire
question of submarine warfare further
in correspondence with Austria and
that even the Austrian admiralty has
declared that As minutes were given
for the passengers and crew of the
Ancona to be transferred, this was
not regarded as affording American
citizens sufficient opportunity to be
saved.
The first official report alleging that
the submarine continued Smelling the
Ancona after she had stopped, reached
the state department in a consular
dispatch outlying an affidavit made by
DR.. Cecil Griel, the only native AM
erican officially known to be sur
vivor of the tragedy.
