FEAR LYNCH|NC
IN Death OF
M'D0NNELL GIRL
Woman's Story Sends Extra Guards
To Protect Father.

Jamestown, N. D.-Several threat
cning scenes have been staged at the
Jail where Dan Mcdonnell of Courte-
nay, N. D., is lodged on the charge of
numbering his ~ year old daughter.
Stutsman county authorities have
found it necessary to increase the
guards at the Jail, as it is feared an
attempt may be made to lynch Nc
Donnell.
The murder was one of the most
brutal in the history of the state. Nc
Donnell and his wife are charged
jointly, but he has attempted to lay
the entire blame on the woman.
Was Mad at Girl.
Before being beaten and kicked to
death Eta Mcdonald, the child, was
:rly starved and when found her
>:ads had been frozen. 1t was due to
:;Iight physical ailment, for which a
..crious blow on the back is believed
TO be responsible, that the child was
sent to her death by her parents, Mrs.
Mcdonnell is said to have confessed
to States Attorney John Carr.
II was mad at Eta, and out of pa
tience," Mrs. Mcdonnell said, accord
ing to the states attorney, "and I told
Dan about it. He threw a potato at
her. It hit her in the chest.
"1'he next day she was worse. My
husband got up and grabbed her oy
the head and neck and shook her
against the wall. He kicked her eight
or ten times after she had fallen on
the floor. He had on heavy shoes and
must have kicked her abaut five min
utes while she was lying on the floor.
I saw all the kicking, but did not
say anything, because whenever he
corrected the children I never said
anything. I later got board and
spanked her.

DRIVEN IN MPLS.
BABY TANKS wit
Big Parade In Which Baby Tanks
Will Play Important Part. May
Be Seen Here Later
(By The Associated Press.)

(By The Associated Press.)
Minneapolis, Ayril 2.-Twenty baby
tanks are going through their PAGES
her today in preparation for their big
parade in st. Paul and Minneapolis
today and then for their distribution
throughout the Ninth District in fur
therance of the Victory Liberty Loan
Campaign.
Forty members Of the American
Tank corps under the command Of
Lieut.. M. H. Wire are on the ground
to take charge Of the travelling forts.
Many of the men have seen active du-
ty on the lines in France. They have
seen service at St. Mihiel, the Ar
gonne, front, Thateau-Thierry, Cier-
ges and other places that viii! live in
American history and their sleeves
are literally sprinkled with gold chew
rons that speak of wounds received
for their country.
Immediately after the parade in
Minneapolis today, the tanks will be
loaded on flat cars and shipped to
various points in the Ninth District
From the northern part of Michigan
to the western counties of Montana,
the tanks will be distributed
Railway schedules are now being
worked out in War Loan Organization
headquarters here to insure the
greatest number Of towns being plac-
ed on the itineraries. The general
plan is to put the tanks in the larger
towns and let them work from there
in all directions.
Each tank is heavily armed and will
appear in the Victory Liebrty Loan
campaign as it did in battle. Some OF
the machines carry Marlin machine
guns and others mount the famous
French 81 millimeter gun-sometimes
called the "one-Pounder."
The men who will tour the district
with the tanks are ready to answer all
questions that may be asked regard
ing the workings of their pets. AT
various points they will give short
lectures.

JAPAN MAY NOT want
ISLANDS THEYzsTook
(By The Associated Press.)

Toxic, April 2.-Public opinion in
Japan is not entirely unanimous on
the question whether Japan shall re-
tain possession Of the Marshall and
Caroline Islands which sine took from
Germany and now holds. The Oska
Mainichi sets forth the attitude Of
many japanese thinkers in an article
in which that newspaper insists that
the islands shall be retained. The
Mainichi declares that, if America
was allowed to seize and fortify Ha-
waii and thus to greatly threaten Jap
an; if she was permitted to occupy
Guam and the Philippines, making
them not only a source of wealth to
herself but also a great menace "a
Japan, China and the British and o..
tch possessions; if Australia and %:H
Zealand have similar control over
New Guinea and Somoa; it is certain
that Japan shall possess the Marshal!
and Caroline Islands, exercising the
same right and rule over them.
"And in so DOING" the paper as
serts, "Japan will only be acting the
part of a small watch dog faithfully
protecting it's own house, in a very
different manner and spirit from the
American wolf whose wolfish anbi-
ton is indeed to be feared. If Japan
is not to be allowed to fortify the is
lands she took from Germany and
which Of right belongs to her, then
the defenses of Gibraltar, the Suez
Canal and other points should be raz-
ed.
"Racial discriminatory treatment in
these respects too, should be abolish
ed and these islands not be left to
white mans domination"
The opposite view was expressed
by Yukio Ozaki, former minister Of
Justice, in an address delivered in
Toxic a few days ago in which he
said:
"It is, indeed, a great honor for
Japan to ocupy the position of a
stockholder in that great internatior-
al corporation, the League of Nations.
The honor is far greater than Japan
will obtain by the possession of the
Marshall and Caroline islands"

new RUBY WHEAT IS
LATEST THING OUT
According to Canadian Experiment.

All Others.

(By The Associated Press.)
Ottawa, Ont, April 2.-Canadlan
farmers have been presented with a
rare gem by the Central Experiment.
III Farm, according to a bulletin just
issued. "Ruby" wheat now takes it's
place in the diadem of agricultural
Jewels of the Dominion.
Ripening a week or more earlier
than even the famous Marquis wheat,
the new Ruby is beardless wheat
with hard, red kernel that produces
flour of excellent color and quality.
The straw is of fair length and the
grain threshes easily.
Though producing slightly less per
acre than the Marquis varieties,
its early maturity and hardness
makes it valuable for localities where
there is a moderate rainfall. Long

DAIRY PRODUCTS
WEEK COMING
Local Consumers Will Have an
Opportunity to EnIighten
Themselves on the
Milk Question.

At an early date Dairy Products
Week" will be featured in South
Bend when local consumers will
have an opportunity to enlighten
themselves on the milk question and
it is expected that all branches IF
the local industry will participate in
the weeks program. The publicity
matter has been prepared by the
National Dairy council, and in order
10 get knowledge of the value of
milk as a food before the people, N
condensed and comprehensive
form. a series of local campaigns
have been started through the coun-
try.
Fred NJ. Alley, a dairy products
expert. who is in cha cge of the pro-
gram for the local campaign, asserts
that it is only necessary to demol-
strate the true values of milk as a
food to the public 10 secure a quick
response in the nature Of increased
use. While milk is the only food in
the world which will alone sustain
life and promote normal growth, it
is only recently that its real value
has begun to be understood.
From surveys made recently in
number of cities it has been found
that the consumption of milk in this
country is less than half the amount
required to safeguard the nations
health. Even in the case of children
the statistics show that the under
consumption is unbelievable. In
place of milk, it was found that chill
dren are receiving harmful substi-
tutes in the form Of tea or coffee, Or
both 1t is such conditions that
were brought to light by this survey
that have inspired the use Of educa-
tional propaganda TO bring the pub
lie TO a realization of the important
bearing dairy products have on the
nations health.
Mr.. Alley is an enthusiastic dairy
booster and predicts that the time IS
not far distant when every up-to-
date community will make it a duty
to see that all children have milk of
good quality and in sufficient amount
to assure their normal development.
He also states that the increased
sale Of dairy products has stimulated
production and that the result is a
relative increase in prices.
