ACT T0PLEASE
ALLC0NCERNED
Secretary of Welfare Commits
sion Says Bill to Be Offered
Will Be Ideal

North Dakota is to have a model
compensation act says Miss Aldytne
Ward, secretary of the state public
welfare commission. . This act Is now
being drafted by John Andrews, in
Washington. to especially meet NORTH
Dakota's needs. Miss Ward has dis
cussed the bill with Mr.. Andrews, but
she Is not prepared to say whether
it will cover farm labor and domestic
help. She is confident that the bill
will be- acceptable to organized labor.
Ninety per cent of North Dakota s
industrial workers are engaged on the
farm. A compensation act which does
not embrace them will do little to re-
lieve the courts of liability litigation.
II North Dakota follows the expert
ence of Michigan and other pioneers
in workmen's compensation leg1sla-
ton, 1t will find it difficult to procure
farmer support for measure whlc !
compels them to insure the safety OF
their helpers. The same is generally
true as to domestic servants.
North Dakota, having Nonpartl'
san administration, will 60 in for state
compensation insurance to the exclus'
ion Of all other types. In states
where the method of insuring en-
ployes has been made optional with
the employees. state insurance has been
the least popular of the four plans,
which usually have included lla'o1llty
stock companies, mutual companies,
the privilege of the employers car
rying his own risk" il financially cap
able and state insurance. North Da-
kota legislators, however, are bound
to accept not other plan put a state
insurance monopoly.

RESTRICTIONS
OFF BUYING0F
CHEAPER COAL
Bituminous and Ignite May Be
Stored Without Limit Un-
der New Order
ANTHRACITE is TIGHTER

The federal fuel administration for
North Dakota today issued an order
officially removing all restrictions
from the storage of Ignite and bitum-
inous coal. This order, as regards lig-
mite and bituminous, rescinds an order
issued last aMrch, effective April l.,
which provided that no domestic con-
sumer should obtain more coal Of any
kind than would be required to last
to the end of the coal year, March 81,
1919. It also required domtstic CON
sumers to make APPLICATION in writing,
setting forth certain basic informa-
ton, and it prohibited dealers from
delivering coal to consumers not maxi
ing such APPLICATION. These restric-
tions are now removed, and consum-
ers may buy and store coal as freely
as their means may permit. Benton
Baker, assistant administrator for
North Dakota, states, however, that 1t
Is hoped that consumers will not take
advantage of this relaxation of restric-
tions to hoard coal to the detrime ent
of their neighbors. The action is TAX
on in North Dakota in keeping with
the policy of the national administra-
tion to remove fuel restrictions wher-
ever it is reasonably possible. :.
Restrictions with regard to anthra-
cite are made even more severe un-
der the new order. Originally it was
equired that dealers should not de-
liver to any consumer more than two
thirds of the amount, of coal ordered
until all who had filed APPLICATIONS for
coal were supplied with an equal pro-
portion of their requirements. An ex'
ception was made in that applications
for six tons of anthracite or less
might .sea filled lin full in turn, The
new order provides that consumers
may receive only one-half Of their
seasons requirements, up to such a
time ats all who have applied for soal
snail have been similarly supplied,
and the quota of six tons of coal for
delivery in turn upon APPLICATION is
reduced to one ton. The new order
becomes effective December 10.
The movement of anthracite into
North Dakota is improvinEN, reports
Mr.. Baker. Shipments to this state
are approaching their percentage OF
the shipments to other northwestern
states, but the actual tonnage is Sill
much less than for the corresponding
period last year, and shsortage or
anthracite for the winter seems more
and more imminent.

LIEUT.. .MARKLEY
TO TOUR STATE
AND TALK WAR
Fighting Chaplain of Smashing
Second Will Tell What Boys
Did Over There
PEOPLE READY FOR HIM

Lieut. II. G. Markley, whose sobri.
quet, "The Fighting Chaplain of the
Smashing Second won when he
threatened to smash on the snoot a
husky pro-German who attempted to
break up a patriotic meeting he was
conducting in the northern part of the
state prior to the departure of his
regiment, stuck to him through the
war, is back in America
When the Second, regiment was or.
ganized, Lieut.. Markley was a Meth.
odist minister with a small charge
way up north. Nobody knew much of
him, and everyone was surprised
when Governor Frazier commissioned
him chaplain of the Second. They
were more surprised when they got
glimpse of Markley, for he was
youthful, and he seemed retiring and
somewhat abashed in strange com.
pany Then Lieut.. Markley started
out on a tour of the central part of
the state to raise a chaplain's fund
for the Second. He not only raised
his fund but he raised the wind in
had been rife, and he not only person
ally threatened to whip into line the
scoffers and knockers, but he saw to
it that one or two of the most dan
gerous were arrested, and he by him
self went into at least one district
and brought out a bad man and hand
ed him over to U. S. commissioner.
So folks generally changed their
opinion of the beardless young chap
lain, and they christened him with
new name that stuck and which he
lived up to. In France he made good
with the 116th Engineers; founded
snappy little paper for them. "The
Pick and Shovel" and when he left
his command in October, because of
i'll health, the boys gave him a fine
send off and said nice things about
him in their paper.
Secretary Thomas Allan Box OF the
state council of defense will meet
Chaplain .Markley in Chicago tomor-
row and will pilot him back home,
where the sky pilot will devote sew
eral weeks + speech-making, In com
pany with Secretary Box, telling the
folks back home what the boys did
over there and what they hope to do
over here when they get back. And
where the Fighting Chaplain is best
known he won't have to threaten to
lick anybody to get q hearing now. -
His itinerary will include Fargo,
Grand Forks, Devils Lake, Minot
t4arvey, New Rockford, jamestown.

possibly other Of the larger North Da'
