Senate And House
Bills Call Forth
Local Opposition
Citizens of Grand Forks Protest
Against House Bills 81 and $50 and
Also Against Senate Bill "A,

Grand Forks citizens are becoming
alarmed over the threatening effects
Of the legislative program i~nstigated
and carried cut under the Nonpartisan
leagues auspices at Bismarck, and
crete shape in various protests aimed
against bills which. if adopted, would
tend to injure this city along with
other municipalities in the state.
Protests were formulated and for
warded against House Bill 81 which
would repeal the law allowing Grand
Forks $4,000 annually for bridge
ed to stop the fire relief funds and
the volunteer fire department of this
and other cities; and against Senate
Bill "a which aims at taking away
from the cities Of North Dakota all
fees collected for licenses granted to
various establishments. T.
Protest Effective.
Judging from Bismarck dispatches.
protests against House Bill 81 were
instantly effective. for the fight, led. by
J. F. T. O'Connor Of this city, resulted
in a retention Of the law which the
new bill sought to repeal. The bill had
been introduced anonymously and had
been bothering the Grand Forks dele
cation in the house considerably. Yes
terday a mass of material gathered
from other cities throughout the
country and bearing upon the matter
of defraying the o Of bridge cons
struction and maintenance. was sent
to Bismarck by Grand Forks city Off
Gals. --
Abolish Pensions and Compensations.
Members of the old volunteer fire
department waxed hot in their pro-
testa against House Bill 1870 which, If
carried, will do away with financial
aid for the firemen's relief fund in
cities where a paid fire department is
kept, and for volunteer departments
in smaller communities. The present
law-that which is to be superseded
by House Bill 130-provides that two
per cent Of all insurance premiums
written in each town. goes to a SPECIAL
fund for the maintenance Of the fire
department, or. If there is a paid de-
partment. one per centl goes to the
flremen's relief fund while the other
goes to the fire department itself.
H. G. Munsey, assistant chief Of the
fire department, and secretary Of the
Grand Forks Fire Department Relief
association; J.. B. Wineman, Don Nc
Donald, and Geo. A. Bangs, former
members Of the old fire department
Of this city, have expressed themselves
very strongly against the bill which il
now pending in the house for the pur-
pose of committing what these and
many other citizens think is a gross
injustice.

Government Board.

At the meeting OF the directors Of
the Associated Charities, held last
night at the Roberts-Banner building.
a spirited discussion took place or
the future development for the or
ganization OF an employment clearing
house. H B. Stevens said the Associ-
ated Charities employment bureau had
been acting largely as a clearing
house for the employment OF domestic
help in Ell Paso. He said about 1900
women were being sent out each
month for work by the day or week.
and that in many ways the work had
not been satisfactory because the
Mexican women, who do most OF the
work in FL Paso. are unframed for
this work.
Suggests Larger STAFF.
Stevens thought that If a larger
staff could be employed to keep closer
check on the work, it might be made
satisfactory. and that the committee
was in favor Of turning this work
entirely over TO the employment ser
vice Of the government.
Rabbi Zielonka spoke in favor Of
the Associated Charities continuing
the work. but said he did not see how
they CO. aid do IL unless larger con-
tributions were received for this pur-
pose.
