During the meetings a leading
pastor was denounced by Aldrich,

Since Mr.. Anderson's recent support

a considerable amount of support that

Performance of High

The size and enthusiasm of the audi

play of the Fargo high school at the

The play is to be repeated this even

Austin pool hall, spreading ruin to the
extent of $4,000. For one hour firemen
battled a blaze that had already caught

surance, 1T is stated. Most of the blaze
seemed centered around underneath
the stairway. The building was one of

New York - The new American
motors consolidation has been called
off. Details regarding complications
are lacking, but the decision to post
pone the merger is probably due to
financial reasons. For the past few
weeks New York has been advising
that it was becoming increasingly
difficult to secure loans on motor
stocks and while the cancellation of
the new merger will relieve the situa-
tion somewhat in that respect, yet
there is a feeling of uncertainty re-
garding the future market for all
motor stocks and we must temporarily
decline to accept orders for such
securities unless the parties making
the purchase are able to pay for them
upon demand.
