VICTORY LOAN
DRIVE COMING

Hon. Wesley Mcdowell, state chair
man of the Victory Liberty Loan drive
sends today the following telegram to
the Times Record: ri H.. "
"The state organization will put on
an intensive campaign the coming two
weeks. War tanks will invade the
state beginning Monday. We may
have some airplaines later but above
all we want to give ourselves over to
the big job ahead of us for North Da-
kota will have full mans sized part
in the coming victory loan. We love
our country in times of peace as we'll
as in times of war and now is the OPP
portunity to demonstrate that fact by
investing in these bonds to the limit
of our ability. Let every one who
writes a letter during the month of
April substitute for yours truly new
phase Yours for the Victory Loan"
1t is important that all of our peo-
pie get into the game to put over
this Victory Loan because it is the
most important loan Of all. Our boys,
ishing up the job. We have gone into
this thing for humanity's sake, we
have incurred a great expense, and
OuC1c Dahl has always Uecu CTculCeu
with paying his bills-you want him
to continue to have his credit remain
good, therefore as he must have the
money to pay the bills, it is necessary
that you help him by buying bonds.
On Wednesday of this week one of the
battle Scared tanks will arrive here
for you to see, giving you one concrete
view of the terrible engines of war
used in this big worlds fight. The
weather today is not encouraging for
our people on the farms to come in to
see this battle tank, but North Dako-
ia is quick changing state in re-
CARDS to weather, and while we are
having some snow today we are liza
able to have sunny warm weather in
a couple Of days from now. Cheer up
and come in Wednesday.

PRESIDENT ALLEN
OUTLINES BUDGET

The following appropriations We're
made at the Valley City State Normal
school by the Sixteenth Legislative
Assembly for the biennial period be-
ginning July /, 1919, and ending June
80, 1921.
Maintenance ........... .$1S2, 10000
improvements and Repairs 8,4O5.OO
Equipment ............. o,OOO.VO
Miscellaneous ........... l3,S4O.99
Total $212, 645.99
In addition to the amount appro-
priated by the Legislative Assembly,
the school will receive, in the form of
interest and income from land grants,
approximately $4,000, while institu-
tional fees, collected during the bien-
mum, will add to the resources Of the
institution about $4,000 more. The
total income of the school for the
coming biennium will therefore be ap-
proxinately 100000. or $4,000 per
annunl.
1t was the hope Of those who are in.
terested in this Normal school, and
who are acquainted with its needs
that we might receive appropriations
for physical education building and
for an administrative building. A
law of the state requires the Board of
Regents to make provision for daily
instruction in physical education, but
the full benefits of this law cannot be
realized here until special building
designed for the work of the depart
ment of physical education, has beer
provided, The institution needs also
a building for administrative offices
for it's library; and particularly for its
museum. Friends of the school hope
and believe that the next Legislative
Assembly will make appropriation:
for these two buildings, which are Sc
sadly needed, and which must be Sc
cured, if the institution is to take thu
place in this new state which {
teacher training institution SHOULD
take.
While we are disappointed in no
securing new buildings, this feeling
Of disappointment should not keep u
| from expressing our appreciation O.
what the Legislative Assembly di,
for US in the appropriation made TO-
running expenses. By the strictes
economy and care in handling this ap
preparation, it will be possible t.
make substantial increases in the sal
aries of members Of the faculty TO
the coming year-increases mad
necessary by present economic condi
tons. We are grateful to the Six
teenth Legislative Assembly for max
ing salary increases possible.

ATTRIBUTED TO
THIEVES FEUD
Jimmie Cherin and Man, Be-
lIeved to Be Tony De
Brouse, Fall Victims to
Gunner at Chicago.

Chicago, Jan. 2l.-A thieves feud
which came to light last Sunday in
the murder Of Charles Stillwell re-
vealed two additional murders to-
day. The new victims were Jimmie
Cherin, said BY the police to be a
notorious criminal, and a man be-
lieved to have been Tony De
Brouse of Cleveland, from a card
in his pocket.
Cherin's body, with three bullet
holes in the head and neck, was
found in the bottom of an automo-
bile on the outskirts lof the city. He
lay in a smear OF blood with tin-
ger on the trigger Of pistol he had
been too slow to fire.
De Brouse's body contained
wounds from II bullets. 1t had evil
IDENTIFY been thrown from an auto
mobile.
Eddie" Fay, who was murdered
several weeks ago, and Stillwell, the
police believe, paid with their lives
for some mysterious offense against
the rules OF their profession, while
the staying OF Cherin is attributed
by the police to the vengeance Of
S,.lwells friends.

Recognition as States
at Peace Conference

Paris, Jan. 2l.-(By Associated
Press New claims, which are
characterized in Official circles as
among the most momentous that
will come before the peace confer
enee, win be raised by the self-gov-
erning dominions of the British
empire in connection with the for
nation Of a league of nations. The
dominions will ask to be admitted
to the league with the status Of in-
dividuaI nations whose sovereignty,
as far as internal affairs are con-
eerned, shall be recognized clearly
by the world, although the right Of
Great Britain to control their for
eign relations is admitted.
Canada, Australia, New Zealand
and, to a lesser degree. South Africa,
will claim the right to enter the
league on the same basis as Belgium
and other similar powers.
Canada, Australia and New Zea-
land have for several years claimed
for themselves absolute independ-
ence as far as the conduct of inter-
nal affairs was concerned, but this
principle never has been formally
admitted by England. The domin-
ions, it is said, now will ask for
formal recognition.
