RIVER WILL NOT
CO ABOVE 34FT.
Clear Skies and Dry Weather
Map Cause Revision Of
Prediction.

Clearing skies. both in the Memphis
district and up-riVer points, together
with the prospect of seasonable warm
weather predicted, will keep the river
below flood stage, according to s. c..
Emery, river forecaster. Evaporation
caused by the warm sunshine will be
a small factor in the decrease in the
rise, according to rivermen. There Is
a good amount of water to come down
the Mississippi from the Ohio and other
swollen tributaries but a stage in ex-.
cess of "a feet, instead Of the 35-foot
flood stage predicted within a weeks
time, is likely to be the maximum
height to be shown on the Memphis
gauge.
The Mississippi river reached a stage
Of 2S.3 on the Memphis gauge Tues
day, rising from 26.9 at the same hour
the day before. There has been little
interruption of activity on the river save
the suspension of work by United States
engineers which may be held up a little
longer than anticipated by Maj. John
V. Hodges, u. S. A., in charge of the

big Muddy" Bridge
At Bismarck To Be
Immense Structure

Bismarck, n. D., Dec. 31.-Some
sense of the magnitude Of the mil
lion dollar highway bridge which is
to span the Missouri between Bis
marck and Mandan, and which will
be the biggest engineering feat of its
kind in this section of the state, Is
gained from n project statement
which the state highway commission
is now preparing for submission to
the federal bureau of roads. which is
expected to provide about half the
capital.
The project calls for three 476-foot
spans, four reinforced concrete piers
and reinforced concrete approaches
at either end. The clear width OF
roadway will be 26.6 feet, with side
walk at each side. The length be-
tween the centers of the end piers
will be 1,443 feet: the approach on
the east will be 4Sc feet long, on the
west 630 feet. and the length over all
1859 feet. The maximum clearance
over high navigation level OF tho
river will be IS feet.
Material to be used will be 6,420
cubic yards of concrete for the piers;
$500 cubic yards for slabs and col
umns; S31 cubic yards for the bridge
pavement; 1870 cubic yards of rub

1000 APPLY
FOR BONUSES
Total Of 81, 400, 900, About /
1915 Per Head, is Called
For in Applications.

Bismarck, N. D., Dec. 31.-Four
thousand applications for soldiers
bonuses averaging 1878 per man, al
ready have been filed with the adj
jutant generals office under the
terms Of the service mems bounty act
Of 1919. A total of $1,4oo.o0o is
called for. and the amount which will
be available by July 1, 1920, under
the three-fourths Of mill general
levy provided for in the act as
amended during tho special session,
will be 100000. 1t is anticipated
that prior to. July as many more
bonus applications will have been
filed. If each of North Dakota's 30,-
900 servicemen should apply, and
should the present average Of $375
per man hold, the state will be re-
luired to pay $11,250, 900 in bounties,
and unless the present levy is in
creased ten years time will be re-
quired to raise that amount.
- ! New Ruling Helped.
The fact that. as the attorney gen.
erals Office recently announced, "a
soldiers bounty may be spent for
but booze or poker" has
vastly increased the number of appli-
cations since the special session re-
Grand Forks herald., 1919-12-31

moved some of the original restric-
tions. At first the bill provided that
soldiers could claim hountleS only il
they wished to invest 1t in an educa-
tion. in a home or in a farm. AS the
act has been amended, returned serv-
ice men can use the money to pay OFF
debts. or to engage in business or
purchase tools for q trade. or stock or
machinery for a farm. or to repair Q
home. or to pay for an education.
Few Want Schooling.
Originally fully forty per cent of
stated they wished to use the money
70 complete their education. Since
the act was amended, many of the
service men have amended their dec
larations, and the present percentage
of those who state their intention Of
going to school is comparatively small.
The above estimates do not take
into consideration North Dakota's 8
army nurses. of which there was an
unusually large number considering
the population Of the state. Almost
100 per cent Of these nurses are rep
resented by service records already
filed with the adjutant general and
which will become a basis for appli-
cations for bounties. In amount of
time spent in the service the army
nurses records compare very favor
ably with the fighting men. This is
especially true Of those who went in
to Germany with the army Of occupa-
ton and who only recently have re-
turned.
AS yet not single army nurse has
made application for her bonus.

BACK TO PRIVATE OWNERSHIP

The change from federal to cor
poratc operation Of the railroads like
~ will be made with such ease and
so little ceremony that it will cause
no excitement The business of rail-
roading will go on about as before.
The officials who have since January
1, 1918, been running the railroads
for Uncle Sam are the same officials
who used to run them for the stock
holders and they are the same Off l.
cials who will continue to run them,
but for the stockholders again, in
stead Of for the government. Changes
Of policies and practices will not be
made in day. They will come grad
ually, and quite q period will elapse
before the good or ill resulting there
from will be felt by the public.
Turning the roads back will be a
popular move. generally speaking.
There is no doubt that it is popular
with business ren, and farmers seem
!, to favor it. Organized railroad en-
ployes made the strongest fight
against the return of the roads, and
they had the support of some other
labor unions, Of the Socialists, and
Of those individuals who for many
years have been advocating govern.
nent ownership. Most of the talk
one hears about the formation of the
new political party is built around
government ownership. - The Ma,
