FAMINE VICTIMS
ASK u. S.FOR AID
Finland Makes Appeal
Through Scandinavian
Countries
(Bv Associated Press.n

Washington, Aug. 9.--Tdentical
notes from Norway, Sweden and Dem
mark appealingnto the United States
to aid famine sufferers in Finland,
were presented to the state depart
ment today by the ministers Of three
Scandinavian countries.
Pledges were offered that no food
sent from America would be allow
ed to fall into the hands of the Ger
mans or to aid Germany in any
way. Absence Of a responsible gov
eminent in Finland to give such
guarantee on its own account until
now has blocked all plans for help
from American or allied sources.
The appeal was the subject Of a
conference during the day between
Colville Barclay. counsellor OF the
British embassy, who is acting am
bassador, and Acting Secretary Polk.
A reply probably will be made short
ly.
The Scandinavian governments
acted, it is said, after being urged
as brothers, to do something for the
Firms. The American government is
assured in the appeal that the Firms
will be willing to accept whatever
terms may be adopted by the Scan
dinavians regarding the administra-
ton of supplies and that Germany
also will furnish proper guarantees.

Fargo To See Real New
York Farce August IL

Theatregoers of Fargo are looking
forward with more than usual inter
est to A. H. Woods forthcoming
production of "Parlor, Bedroom and
Bath the famous. New York farce
hit which comes to the Orpheum
Wednesday, August IA, for an en-
gagement of one night, direct from
its phenomenal success at the Re-
public theater, New York, where It
has been playing to crowded houses
for the past seven months. Previ-
Gus to it's New York engagement it
had enjoyed run Of four months
In Chicago, where it proved to be
one Of the most popular farces in
years.
"Parlor, Bedroom and Bath" is de-
scribed as a. fresh, flippant, far
cical frolic in three acts, and is the
work of c. w. Bell and Mark Swan,
who have furnished it with one Of
the most amazingly clever and orig
inal plots seen on the stage in years.
The story has to do with the des-
perate attempt of a ild-mannered
young husband to live up to his purely
fictitious reputation as a Don Juan.
His wife is tremendously proud Of
his imaginary past, and the young
husband, whose past is really quite
innocent Of sin, therefore proceeds
to acquire a scarlet present in or
der to sustain his wife's illusions.

RESIGN ALTON OF
ERNESTG. MANNER
Is REQUESTED BY
CONTROL BOARD
Secretary Is Last Of Old
Guard To Fall Under
The Townley Scythe

Bismarck, N. D., Aug. 9.-The state
board Of control has requested the
resignation Of its secretary, Ernest
G. Wanner, to become effective Octo-
Der /. The identity Of his successor
does not appear to be known to any
one at the state house. The names
of John B. Brown, assistant seCreo
tary to the state board Of control
and Townley newspaper correspond
ent, and Of Jack Charmley, formerly
Of The Mott Spotlight and now asso-
ciate editor Of The Palladium, have
been mentioned.
No reason has been given for the
change Secretary Wanner is one OF
the best known and has generally
been regarded as one Of the most ef-
ficient of North Dakota's public SER
wants. He was appointed to his
shortly after the creation Of the
board, when he took charge of the
office and organized 1t, installing the
systems which are still in use. Dur
ing his five years service, the work
of the office has grown to an enor-
nous extent, but the secretary's eff
cient administration has enabled the
board to keep pace with the develop
n1ent Of its business without any con-
siderable addition to Its clerical staff
The board now purchases. supplies
and handles payrolls to the amount
Of $4,000 per annum.
All Of the states penal and charit-
able institutions are under the con-
troll of this board. They include the
| state capitol, the penitentiary at Bis
| marck, the state industrial school al
| Mandan, the state hospital for the
insane at jamestown, the institute
for the minded at Grafton
the school for the blind at Bathgate
the school for the deaf at Devils
Lake and the tuberculosis sanitarium
at Dunseith. The board Of control
duplicates the bookkeeping Of all OF
these institutions, purchases all OF

their supplies and generally acts as
business agent for them.
Ernest q. Wanner came to the
board from Valley City five years
ago, with an already well-grounded
business experience. He had man
aged large mercantile establishments,
and at the time of his appointment,
he was engaged in the abstract bust
ness at Valley City. He has been re-
markedly successful. say those who
are familiar with the affairs of the
board Of control, as a buyer, and his
knowledge Of this end Of the game
has saved the state many thousands
annually.
Last of Old Guard.
Secretary Wanner is the last Of the
old guard to fall under the Townley
scythe, which has been busily lop-
ping heads at the capitol from the
time the league rode into power the
first of January, 1917. Other faithful
and efficient servants who have gone
are: Major Frank S. Henry, for
several years land commissioner,
and now at the head OF his bat
talon in France, and Colonel Charles
Brewer, for years secretary Of the
state board Of regents, and now on
the editorial staff Of The Pioneer
Press at st. Paul.
Mr.. Wanner has not announced his
plans for the future. He is, how
ever, a devoted citizen Of Bismarck,
and it is not probable that he will
leave the capital city.

Theda believes that what theSworld

has been written especially for Miss

The minor successes gained by the al
lies on the Italian front probably mean
that the Teuton line there has been
weakened to strengthen the Teuton line
in Belgium and France, ready for the
great offensive that has been advertised
for so long. Report from Belgium says
that Austrian troops are being poured
into that section of the German front
Therefore, a splendid opportunity opens
itself to the Italian army once the wealth
er permits-an opportunity TO make
drive against Austria which will demand
the recall OF troops from the Belgian
front or will result in the collapse of the
dual monarchy. Undoubtedly the leu.
tonic leaders are counting on the demon
slization OF the Italian army to such an
extent by it, recent defeat that IL will
not be able to start a great drive. This
