Geo. Norman, Overseas
Vet, Receives Discharge

After more than a years service
with the American Expeditionary
Forces in France, George Norman.
former member Of Company NJ, has
received his discharge from the mill
tary hospital at Fort Smelling where
he received treatment for injuries re-
ceived in action.
Mr.. Norman was a member of the
18th infantry, First division, and was
with his organization in every en-
gagement in which the famous divi-
sion participated. He was wounded
in the left foot by a machine gun
bullet causing IN intricate injury
which manifests itself in a slight
limp. n will probably never fully re-
the use of the member. He al
so bears a three-inch seal on his
scalp, souvenir of a combat with a
German officer at close quarters, the
bullet perforating his helmet and
grazing his head.
The veteran expects to leave today
for Hillsboro, N. D.. where his parents
moved after he had gone overseas,
and where he will make a brief visit
before returning to East Grand Forks.

. spirited debate the city council vot-
ed to allow him to discharge the
duties of his ONCE.
Mr.. woolwine charged the police
department vas being used to inttmi-
date state witnesses and to embarass
tho prosecution. He issued al appeal
to the citizens asking their co-opera-
ton in furnishing any evidence they
might have in connection with the
case.
The defense charged that the dis
Itrict attorney had piled certain wit
nesses with liquor and otherwise had
ton which resulted in the Indictment
Of the mayor.
An important factor in starting the
investigation were kilograms alleged
to have been sent the mayor by Karr
from Sacramento. The mayor after
his arrest made two Of these public.
They urged him to "make q shift
and that If he did not do so ut means
grief" The prosecution contended the
shift" referred to the placing Of
Hackett at the head Of the purity"
squad. The mayor declared Karr's
meaning was not clear to him nor did
he attach any Importance to the mes
sages regardless Of their meaning.
The trial was held before Superior
Judge Frank r. Willis, a veteran jur-
list, who had presided over many note
worthy criminal trials Including those
of. Matthew A. Schmidt and David
Caplan, convicted Of completely in the
dynamtting of the Los Angeles Times

Situation Discouraging in
Sullivan, Higdem, Grand

Nesbit township, the first Of the
nine townships included in the East
Grand Forks district to realize its
quota, went over the top by the COM
Portable margin of $3.50. according
to a checkSu up of the figures on final
report Saturday evening, and now
heads the honor list.in the rural drive.
Today no other townships had yet
reached their quotas. but every indi-
cation points to the fact that Esther
township, which Saturday night had
but $3.50 to realize. will be the second
of the townships to arrive at the COW
eted Victory goal. and committeeman
confidently expect that the full
amount will be gained by tonight, or
at the latest. tomorrow.
Standings of the other three town
ships who have shown Roadway dur
ing the past two days as shown by
check-up figures Saturday evening,
with the amount Of each yet to be
lied, are: Huntsville, $1,000; Rhine
hart, $3.50, and Northland. $1,000.
Northland township, it is pointed out,
is in much better condition than the
figures indicate, inasmuch as several
committeeman have yet to report
whose amounts have lot been includ-
ed In any total.

in danger, everybody as individuals
we're in danger-and stuck together.
Now that fighting has ceased. we must
continue to stick. and not try to slide
from under our obligations that won
the war. To fail to put this loan
across at this, time is a direct and dis
tinctly unfavorable 3%eflection ,upon
our people and our community. If
we fail, we're all going to have a hard
time explaining why it happened, and
our standing from the standpoint of
patriotism will be seriously impaired.
All that is needed is a little more help,
a few more subscriptions and a few
more subscriptions in keeping with
our ability to subscribe. and this loan

DR.. J. G. Arneberg, Grand Forks

consummated through the local real
estate firm of Sullivan Bros.
Though DR.. Arneberg expected at
the time of purchase. to retain title,
he had no more than closed the deal
until he was approached with an Of
fer to buy, and will probably sell the

INDICTED FOR
TAKING BRIBE
Mayor Of Los Angeles Ac.
cused of Accepting Money
To Protect Vice.

Los Angeles. Cal, May 5.-Mayor F..
7. Woodman Of Los Angeles was in
dicted March 81, by the county grand
jury on a charge Of asking, receiving
and agreeing to receive a bride to
protect vice. S
1t was charged that the mayor had
agreed to accept $4,000 from George
Brown and George Henderson in re-
turn for allowing them what practi-
cally would have been q monopoly on
the operation Of certain illegal resorts
in Chinatown and other districts close
to the business section, without po-
lice molestation.
The $4,000, 1t was alleged, was to
be paid in ten monthly installments Of
$2,5o0 each. OF the $4,000, 1t was
alleged Brown and Henderson actual
~ paid $4,000 in January to Horace
w. Karr, a former newspaperman,
who was accused Of receiving it in be-
half Of Mayor Woodman for his inter-
est and under his direction.
AS a part Of the alleged conspiracy
ment charges the mayor caused the
appointment, of Sergeant, William
Hackett as head Of the so-called
purity squad, whose duty it was to
suppress various form of vice. Brown
and Henderson were indicted on a
charge of bribing Mayor Woodman at
the same time the true bill was voted
against the official.
The Indictment followed an investi-
cation by the grand jury under the
direction Of Thomas Lee woolwine,
district attorney, A number Of city
officials testified.
According to the mayor the entire
affair is a political plot designed to
prevent his reelection as he had just
Mr.. Woodman furnished bail in the
sun of $4,000 and employed counsel.
Pressure was brought to bear upon
him to resign or ask to be. suspended
as mayor pending the outcome Of the
trial but he refused to do so: After
