DRAWN BY SENATE
Proposed Measure Expect
ed to Aid Shipyards

BARUCH SAYS THE
NEED Is GREAT

WASHINGTON. Oct 25.--The Senate
Commerce Committee yesterday draft
ed substitute for the si75.OOO,OOO
emergency power bill passed by the
House 10 days ago. and probably Will
formally adopt II and vote 10 report 1t
out I'm place Of tho House bill at meet
ing OF the committee today.
The new bill gives the War Indus
tries Board complete authority to de-
velOp new electric power projects or to
assist in developing existing power
plants i'm shipbuilding and war muni-
tlon districts where there is a serious
shortage OF power.
The measure makes only SJ0,000OO0
available for new power development,
instead OF Si75,OOO.OOO appropriated in
the House bill. The substitute bill also
would take care Of the power require
ments Of each individual district as a
separate project, whereas the House
bill appropriated the lump sum for an
extension scheme Of general power de-
velopment throughout the country.
The substitute measure authorizes
the war finance corporation, upon the
recommendation OF the War Industries
Board, TO advance such moneys as may
be necessary 10 provide power where
necessary 10 carry on the manufacture
Of war munitions and the building OF |
ships, not 20 exceed sj0000,000.

ruch, chairman Of the War Industries |
Board, told the Senate Committee dur
ing its week Of consideration Of the !
measure is vitality necessary calls for
extensive power development in the /
Philadelphia district. Mr.. Baruch told
the Senate committee that the greatest
need for additional power is in the
shipyards along the Delaware river be-
tween Bristol and Wilmington, lnclud-
ing Hog Island.
Should the substitute bill be adopt
ed development Of power in the Phila-
delphia district undoubtedly will be
the first TO be undertaken, in view Of
Mr.. Baruch's testimony. Experts Of the
War Industries Board told the Senate
committee that 10000 additional horse

district This would cost about Sii,-

No Politics In
The Armstice

London, Monday, Sept. 3O.-The
convention with Bulgaria signed yes
terday was purely military arrange
ment which wa sentered into on be-
half of the allies by the French and
other military commanders. No po-
litical problems are dealt with and
the questions of boundaries and 9TH
er arrangements are left to the peace
conference.
There has been much discussion in
the English press Of the status of
King Ferdinand, and suggestions
have been made that he be deposed.
That matter also was outside the
scope of the convention. The gov
ernments of the allies take the view
that according to their principle Of
self determination the question of
who should be Bulgaria's ruler is
question for the Bulgarian people to
decide, if such a question arises in
Bulgaria. Thus, it is pointed out,
the allies have given practical ap-
plication to the self determination
principle at the first opportunity Of
fered.
The armistice arranged yesterday
remains in force until the final and
general peace settlement. It consti-
tutes complete military surrender
by Bulgaria. She not only ceases to
be an enemy but ceases to be bel
ligerent.
Bulgaria agrees to evacuate all the
territory she now occupies in Greece
and Serbia, to demobilize her army
Immediately, and surrender all means
of transport to the allies.
Bulgaria also will surrender her
boats and control of navigation on
the Danube and concede to the allies
free passage through Bulgaria for
the development of military opera
tions.
All Bulgaria arms and ammunition
are to be stored under the control of
the allies, to whom is conceded the
right to occupy all important strategic
points.
Occupation of Bulgaria will be en-
trusted to British, French and Ital-
ian forces, and the evacuated por-
tions of Greece and Serbia respec-
lively to Greek and Serbian troops.

that she was getting along nicely.

the First National Bank of this city

Large Crowd
Hears Doyle

s. j. Doyle candidate for governor
of North Dakota who spoke here at
the Armory Auditorium last Thurs
day evening had very enthusiastic
audience to hear him. Mr.. Doyle
gave very interesting and clean
talk, explaining to the people the
fact Of various state measures that
have been up during the present ad-
ministration and what would happen
to the state if such legislation should
be put in force.
Mr.. Doyle left from here for Nc
kenzie county where he spoke to large
crowds the latter part of last week
and over 60 per cent Of those to hear
him there were members of the Nom
partisan league who have become
very much interested of late in the
issues that Mr.. Doyle is discussing
and the clean and upright manner in
which he is making his campaign.
At meeting here in Williston
Private Joseph Mendro, returned SOL
der, who arrived only few days
ago from France, introduced Mr..
Doyle to the Williston audience which
was one of the most enthusiastic the
speaker has addressed.
"Among the many questions that
are asked of me since l have return
ed from the other side, is chiefly the
question, How do the boys feel over
there All of them l came in con-
tact with seemed to think and feel
the same way: namely, they will do
their share over there, if the people
over here will do their share. In
other words, back them up in every
way" said Private Mendro, in in
Producing Mr.. Doyle.
AT the present time, there are no
half hearted or luke warm Ameri-
cans. They are either all American
or pro-German, and any one who in
any way embarrasses our govern
ment in any way, as long as this war
is going on, is as great if not a
greater enemy to liberty and democ-
racy than the Hun who fights US in
the trenches.
"1f we choose men to represent and
govern US who are not 10 Oper cent
American, we are sticking knife in
the backs of the boys who are fight
ing over there. Believe me, when l
say if it were left to the boys they
would elect only a true American.
1t is our duty to support only such
men so that our great state of North
Dakota will not be looked upon with
suspicion.
"Having all these things in mind,
l have the honor tonight Of introduc-
ing 100 per cent true blue all
American who, with your support
and the support of all true Ameri-
cans, will be the next governor of
North Dakota, Mr.. S. J. Doyle"
