THE NORTHERN LIGHTS
CAUSED NEW COLOR
/ ! SCHEME LAST might

In reply to an''inquiry OF The Tri-
,une as to the reasons for the unusual
,oloring of the sky last evening, Mr..
Roberts of the weather bureau stated
as follows: This phenomenon was
due to the diffusion and reflection OF
Aurora Borealis (Northern Lights) by
stratc-cumuus and cirro-stratus
clouds. The more dense clouds, like
strato-cumulus, retarded the light rays
only allowing the red rays ITO pass
through and become visible to the
eye: the less dense clouds allowed
fore of the shorter rays to penetrate
which gave yellowsh and pinkish
tint. That this display was general
IS shown by the fact that your morn
ing edition contains an article under
a Washington. ID. c.. headline to the
effect that the display at that point
was the brightest ever recorded at
hat point. The people OF North Da-
kota are fortunate in their geographic
II location, for the only explanation
'eard by the writer was that the glare
was, caused by burning strawstacks,
while in the east visions Of Zeppelins
were first to come. in mind ....

With the exception of limiting fed

president is authorized to initiate rates
subject to review by the commission.
In determining the fairness of rates,
the commission is required to take in
to consideration the fact that the car
riers are being operated under unified
control and. that such establishments
in rates as are proposed are for the
purpose of obtaining additional reve-
nueS.
The house provision bringing under
federal control all the so-colled short

accepted by the conferees, who also in
serted in the bill provision limiting
the ratio of taxation Of railroad pro-
perry in the various states to rate
not higher than that for the year pre-
