COOPER UNION
To HEAR TALK
FROM GOVERNOR
Lynn ]. Frazier Invited to Make
Address in New York Under
Institute Auspices
CHIEF EXECUTIVE HAS
NOT MADE UP HIS MIND
Secretary Advises That Honor
Has Not Been Given Definite
Consideration

Historic Cooper Union, Americas
most famous assembly place, whose
walls have resounded to the oratory
of the nations greatest men, will be-
come the theatre for Lynn J. Fra.
tiers eastern debut, if the governor
accepts an invitation which he now
has under consideration, to make an
address in New York City, under the
auspices of the Peoples institute.
The invitation was rendered today
through Frank BONN Of New York,
late professor of economics in Column
bia university, and more recently rep
resentative of the New York Times in
Europe. He advised that New York,
now in the throes of food riots, is
particularly anxious to know what the
chief executive of one of Americas
greatest food states, himself a farmer,
and elevated to supreme power in the
commonwealth through the franchise
Of $4,000 brother farmers, has to say
on the problem Of marketing.
Governor Frazier this morning de.
clined to discuss the invitation and
would not state whether he would &C.
cept. From another source came in
formation that April 10 or II has been
fixed as tentative dates; that there
is practically no question as to the
governors acceptance, and that he
will discuss possible methods of CO.
operation between the. producer of
raw foodstuffs and the consumer,
through the purchase of supplies d.
rect from terminal facilities such as
were proposed in Senate Bill "a,
which the governor recently vetoed.
The governor, it was stated, probably
would urge that buyers representing
consumers leagues come to terminal
for purchases.

BOARD DEBATES
STATE INCREASE
Special Session Being Held This
Afternoon to Consider Horiz-
ontal Boost
MEMBERS SAID 70 BE
n DIVIDED ON QUESTION

The knotty problem Of advancing
the assessed valuation of North Da-
kota 20 per cent in order to produce
half-million dollars more revenue
for the ensuing two years is to be
considered at an informal meeting
called by the state board of equaliza-
ton tomorrow afternoon.
The session was ,enreI until to.
morrow, awaiting return of Attorney
General LANCER and Commissioner Of
Agriculture and Labor Hagan, who,
with Governor Frazier. State Treas.
urer Steen and State Auditor Kositz-
ky, compose the board.
The states assessed values, the tax
commission advises the board, must
be boosted $142,000,000, or appropri-
atoms as left by the legislature, and
following aslice of the 100000 item
included for terminal elevators, must
be slashed another half-million.
The governor has been in favor of
pairing down appropriations to b.
ance with present revenues, but he
is said to have come to the conclusion
that many worthy projects must suf.
fer if this is done. Other members
of the board are divided in their
opinions, State Auditor Kositzky
standing dat-footed lagainst an in.
crease in valuation. Il s1 = r,
Should the board decide to make a
horizontal increase Of 20 per cent, it
would find plenty of precedent, in the
action of the state board, in response
to an act of the Fourteenth assem-
bly,, in 1915, when values were showed
up 20 per cent. Last year the board
took similar action in reverse English,
when it cut assessed values 10 per
cent. 4. o"

INTERESTING INSURANCE
CASE BEING ARGUED N
SUPREME COURT TODAY
Question of Right of Agent to
.
Use Check Before Policy Is
Delivered

A case of unusual interest at this
time because of bill passed by the
Fifteenth general assembly bearing
upon this particular subject, is set
for argument in supreme court today
on an order from Ransom county to
show cause why writ of habeas
corpus should not issue for the per-
son of J. R. Spriggs OF Lisbon.
Mr.. Spriggs is charged by A. E..
Jones of Lisbon and Bismarck, a we'll
known real estate man, with having
obtained money under false pretenses,
in that he accepted, it is alleged, and
negotiated, it is claimed, a check for
$22S, in payment of the first premium
on a term life insurance policy of
$4,000, and then failed to deliver the
policy.
The New York Mutual Insurance
company, in; whose company Mr..
Jones expected to be Insured, has ad-
vised him. the complaint sets forth,
that no money was received in pay
ment of policy on his life, and that
the company declines to issue any
such insurance. ,u.
Probably the most important insur-
ance measure passed at the recent
session was House Bill No. As, intro
duced by Representative Harris,
which provides: "No insurance COM
pany or agent of any insurance CON-
pany shall negotiate or dispose of
any note or cheek taken in payment
of the first premium on any insurance
policy until after the policy has been
delivered to- the applicant, or the ap
plicant has, passed a satisfactory med.
ical examination. 49,
