ties as 1 have examined do not seem altogether plain upon the subject nor are they uniform thereon. The consti- tutional amendment may be proposed and submitted by joint resolution and not by such an enacting clause as is required by bill which may be intro- duced to become a statute: neither does a proposal and approval by the legis- lature of Q constitutional amendment for adoption by the people, require the signature of the governor, as does a law passed by the legislature.
 Mode of Amending
 Article XXI of the constitution pre- scribes the mode of amending the con
 stitution. It does not give to the legis- lature any power other than proposing an amendment, and approving same for submission to the vote of the people. It does not give the executive any legislative power nor does if give any enacting power to the legislature. It prescribes a method which is complete in itself, and appar- ently without any reference to, or de- pendence upon, any other section or article of the constitution It is a mode of amending article. and not a Legislative department article. Fur ther article XXI in its provisions diff fers materially from the methods pre- scribed by Article ". and it may be urged is not in pari materia with the provisions prescribing the method of enacting statutory laws.
 When a constitutional amendment is proposed by either of the houses of the | legislature, and is approved by a ma ! jority of the members elected 10 each of the two houses, and such proposed amendment and approval together with the ayes and nays thereon are entered on the journal. the function of the | legislature is complete. It then rests with the people alone as 10 whether or not the change in the fundamental law is to be fully consummated.
 Submit as Resolution
 | However. the measure submitted with your inquiry is in the form of a statutory enactment, consisting of a | title. an enactinS clause. and the text of the measure, together with pro- visions for it's submission to the vote | of the people. Hence as q statute it | would be urged that it does not comply with the provisions of Article ". and while it might be held that the statu- i tory form contained therein could not | dilcSl slto Ndlluity dS d COllSlltullOnal amendment, I would suggest that it be submitted in the form of q joint resolu- tion in order to avoid such question being raised against it. I have pre- pared and enclose herewith a form of resolution embodying the suggested resolution, which I submit without ap- proval or comment as to it's contents l While as above suggested, I have some doubt about the authority of the
 legislature in special session under
 your call to propose and approve said proposed amendment for submission tc ! vote of the people 1 do not feel thai

it is proper that l should resolve such doubt against the legality of such ac- ton upon the part of the legislature, and thereby interpose an opinion ad- verse to what might be held the legal exercise of a proper function of that body.
 Respectfully,

 Attorney General.

SUGAR FAMINE AyERTED

North Dakota is to be spared a
sugar famine. The serious shortage
in the sugar supply for August has
been relieved by instructions from,
Washington allowing the federal food
administration for North Dakota to
draw on the September allotment to
supply the shortage in the August al
lotment.
With only half of the sugar re-
quirements of the dealers in North
Dakota filled North Dakota's Aug
ust allotment Of sugar was practic-
ally exhausted. DR.. Ladd placed
the situation before the officials in
Washington and the authority to
draw on the September allotment
was given.
Under the present system of sugar
distribution every state has specified
allotment of sugar based upon its pop
ulation and the amount used during
the months Of June and July. This
allotment is figured in Washington for
the entire country.
The allotment for North Dakota for
August was 2,326,7O6 pounds. This
amount is distributed to the dealers
under certificate plan. Every deal
err in sugar and all users of sugar ex-
cept for household purposes may buy
only upon presentation of certificate.
This certificate is secured from the
federal food administration upon pre-
sentation by the dealer or the user of

PROFITEERING IN MANY
LINES MADE PUBLIC
IN FEDERAL COURT
Unusual Profits Accrue in Food Pro.
ductiOn and Cloth Manufacturing

Washington, Aug. 17.-War prof.
teers in 1917 were most numerous in
business devoted to food production
and in the cotton and wooden manu-
featuring and dealing, coal mining
iron, copper, aluminium and other
metal production and oil production
and distribution, according to treas
ury department analysis. In addi-
tion thousands Of small concerns in
great variety of industrial and COM
mercial classifications made profits
ranging from 100 to 5000 per cent
above their normal profits for pre-
war years, which even then were con-
sidered high.
Detailed information on the extent
of war profteering was given con-
gress recently in compliance with a
resolution requesting it, and the fed
eral trade commission is understood
to have obtained considerable informa-
ton from the income reports.
No Uniform Profits
The treasury has made it clear that

not all individual businesses in these
groups have gathered in swollen earn
ings. This is true particularly OF
coal operators, some of whom made
enormous profits of several hundred
per cent more than formerly, while
others made barely enough to pay
justified dividends.
With few exceptions, manufacturers
of clothing and shoes reported big
profits. This was true of most con-
Germs holding government contracts,
many of which were let early in the
war, when the government felt COM
PEELED to stimulate production of the
vast quantities of supplies needed by
the army. Scores Of income reports
from suit, shirt, underclothing and
shoe manufacturers showed earnings
of from 30 to 100 per cent in invested
capital,
Lumber Interests Soar
Lumber production, stimulated by
the sudden enormous demand for can
| tonments and other government oper-
! ations netted forest and saw mill
owners as we'll as distributors, pro-
| fits several times above those of nor
NAL years. ct 80 ~ ,ss
Oil producers made enormous pro-
! fits which they claimed were justified
! by the rapid depreciation of proper
| ties and the extra financial hazard of
their business. al - /. -..-.- ~.--
Despite high cost Of labor and 9th
er factors entering into mining, the
treasury analysis shows that very
few iron, copper or aluminium mines
failed to make tremendous profits for
their owners under the government
policy Of stimulating production. Pro-
! ducers of silver, gold, platinum and
other precious metals profited to a
| lesser extent.
Automobile and motor truck manu-
featuring was highly profitable, al
though income returns show that
earnings of different plants were far
from uniform some making as high
as so per cent on investments, and
others less than 10 per cent.
Money in Flour Milling
Flour millers and Gamers appar-
emily stood at the top of the list of
profit takers, according to income re-
cords. Flour millers made money
heavily last year.
Profteering was by no means con-
fined to big business interests. Small
scale producers in thousands of cases,
reported profits equal to the aggre-
gate of from five to ten years earn
ings before the United States entered
the war.

taken and with only so per cent Of the
demand filled this left critical short
age which has now been relieved by
the permission which has been given
to use up part Of the September al
lotment.

a statement, properly signed, showing
the amount to which this dealer was
entitled.
When the sugar division of the food
administratio began issuing these
certificates for August they allowed
only one-half of the amount on each
individual certificate. This was done
upon instructions from Washington.
When all the certificates had been is
sued on this basis of so per cent Of
the requirements it was found that all
of North Dakota's allotment had been

of the federal food administration.
merchants and dealers who have
furnished their statements as requir-
ed, will get the other half of their
August sugar early next week.
'"This authority to use our Sep
TENDER allotment now, will be a great
relief to all dealers and users of
sugar. We hope that there will be
readjustment of the sugar allotment
for September and that September al
lotments will be made the first Of the
month";"
