WEISGERBER CASE
MAY CLOSE TODAY

NEW YORK. March 2S.-The court.
martial of Capt. Edwin Weisgerber,
charged with "disloyalty TO the
United States and sympathy with the
enemy" is expected to be concluded
either today or tomorrow, unless wit
hesses hitherto held in the back
ground are produced.
Witnesses have been examined by
both sides in an effort TO substantiate
or refute the charge that Weisgerber
attempted to sell to the British gov
eminent a synthetic gas containing
pieric acid, which would have de-
stroyed engines in which il was used :;
that he had made recommendations
relative to Standardization or gas
containers that would have resulted
disastrOusly, and that he had lived in
Washington with a woman other than
his wife.
Major Oliver e. Zimmerman. his
immediate superior in the engineer
ing division of the United States
army, testified yesterday that Weis-
gerber's gas, composed OF 95 per cent
water and . per cent chemicals, was
successfully tested. and that, in addi-
ton to inventing this cheap fuel oil.
known rs Liberty fuel" he had rem
dered great aid to the Government in
producing other chemicals and chem
ical products previously only obtain
able from Germany.
1t was intiElated by the defense
that large oil interests were behind
the attempt to discTedit Weisgerber's
product, 'and that the accusation was
brought against him for the purpose
of forcing the revelation of the for
mula for the chemicals used in Weis-
gerber's prepared water.

The Ward County independent. [volume] (Minot, Ward County, N.D.) 1902-1965, 1919-04-17

1t ought to be an easy matter to
put over the Fifth Victory Loan, the
campaign for which starts next week
The proposition is so attractive from
a business standpoint that it ought to
sell itself. First consider the securi-
ty-the best in the world. Then
there's the incentive to save-to put
that occasional dollar into the bond
that might otherwise go for jimcracks
Then there's the Sd per cent inter-
est that it draws and it is redeemable
in four years And aside from look
ing at it from business standpoint,
we ought to be patriotic enough to
want to furnish the money to bring
our soldiers back from France. They
have done fine job for US who were
permitted to remain at home and
make money.
The farmers are showing consider
able uneasiness because of the late
ness of the season. No work in the
fields to speak of has been done at
this date, April II, and very little will
be done before the first of the week.
An early season may mean larger
acreage, but the chances are that a
late spring will mean bigger crops.
You all remember the early springs
when the weeds beat the wheat up,
when the ground remained cold and
the grain was slow in showing up out
of the ground, and after it did make
its appearance it stalled along, max
ing scarcely any growth, letting the
weeds get the better of them. The
gardener who waits until the ground
is warm before putting in his seed al
ways produced the more vigorous
plants. And so it is apt to be with
the crops this year. In nearly every
instance where we have grown bump
er crops in North Dakota the season
has been late. No use worrying.
Well have to take what the weather
man gives US anyway.

Attic in the previous Liberty Loan,
Minots quota was $250,O00, it has been
increased to $27O,O0O for the Fifth
Victory loan. The quota for the en-
tire county remains the same as for
the previous loan, $5OO,OOO. Minot's
quota has been based on bank depos-
its. AS this city has more than so
per cent of all of the bank deposits
of Ward county, her quota is more
than half Of that of the entire coun-
ty. This is fair way to arrive at a
quota and the city will have no trouble
in meeting it.

in favor of the trial. Neither was the

Now is a good time to get busy
with road drags and smooth up the
rough surfaces so that when they
dry out the roads will be in excellent
shape. The hills north of the city
present the worst PROBLEM. Farmers

down from that side actually prevent
them from coming to town. Steps

CHIXKS COMING

VANCOUVER, B. c. March 25- The Labor Reconstruction Comms- sion has made the announcement that eight hundred Chinese coolies are enroute for British Columbia.
 The Commission has called the at tention of the Canadian government to the fact and warned them that the importation of Chinese coolies on an already overstocked labor mar ket may precipitate grave race r.ots.
 Great blame IS attached to the Ca nadian employers for being responsi- ble for the importation of coolies, an action absolutely indefensible in view of the already oyerstocked labor mar ket.
 The commission claims that the main object of the employers is the cutting down of wages and that the Chinese will be used to replace better and white labor. Serious trouble can be expected if the employers are all lowed to put their plans into practice condition which Canadian labor would hardly contemplate with fold ed arms
