REPUBLICAN NOMINEE FOR co. sUPT. OF SCHOOLS

and high schools of Minnesota. Her
work in those schools won for her a
life certificate in that State.
She came to Valley County in 1916
and taught in the Glasgow High School
until the close of the school in 1919.
During that time she was in charge
of the normal training department.
The object of that department is to
train teachers for the schools of this
State. Her success in that line is de-
monstrated by the fact that in no
county of the state are the teachers in
the public schools better qualified to
perform the work required Of them.
She holds a State first grade teachers
certificate in Montana. Such certif-
Gates are granted only to teachers of
high qualifications, and ability. No
one can advance any reason why Miss
Forster will not insure a continuation
of the excellent administration of this
office.
More than any other institution the
schools of North Dakota have suffer-
ed from the programme put in force in
that state. Miss Forster is not an ex-
pertinent in that office. The North
Dakota ideas of school administration
do not appeal to her at all. The work
that she has so far done in that office
is open to the inspection of the public.
You are invited to examine her record.
and after you have obtained full infor-
nation of it's character and her abil-
ity you will undoubtedly vote to up
hold the present efficient school sys-
tenn in this county.
If elected, Miss Forster will devote
all her time and energy to the office.

Valley County has been particularly
fortunate in it's superintendent of
schools. Through the efforts of per-
sons who have filled that position in
the past this county's educational sys-
tenn has stood we'll to the front. The
republican nominee, Miss Forster, has
been deputy in that office during the
past fifteen months, consequently she
is in close touch with the needs of all
the schools in this county. Born in
Winona, Minnesota, thirty years ago,
she was educated in the public schools
of that city and graduated from the
Winona Normal School in 1911. For
five years she was teacher in the grade

On Rum Selling Charge
Saloonkeeper Gets So Used to
Summ0nses He Demands
One Rcfnre Arresf

For the second time since January
1C Robert Bausch, a saloon owner at
1914 Amsterdam Avenue, was held yes
terday by United States Commissioner
Hitc hcock in $500 bail on a charge of
violating the Eighteenth Amendment.
In fact, Bausch, against whose place
neighbors complained. has been hailed
to court three times on the same
charge, twice on summonses, but on one
occasion the charge did not hold,
while on another he is also under $500
bail.
Bausch. according to Prohibition
Agents Sidney Hochstadter and Frank
x. Kelly, who arrested him Saturday
night, lives in flat over his store and
runs a dumbwaiter system between
saloon and living quarters to supply
the demands of customers. Hoch-
stadter and Kelly met several men
near Bausch's saloon on Saturday
night, they say, who exhibited symp-
toms Of liberal libations. Upon inquiry
the" Federal agents learned without
trouble where these men got it. Hoch-
stadter and Kelly entered the saloon
and, they say, saw Bausch serve
whisky over the bar. Bausch, who on
the two previous occasions when Fed
eral agents visited his place, had
merely received a summons, demurred
when told he was under arrest. "Give
me a paper" he insisted. 1t became
necessary for the agents to yank the
proprietor from behind the bar.

He went directly from the grand

Harry Tiernan, who is the chief strate-

Barnes Defends
Proposal to Sell
Flour to Europe
Wheat Director Says 5,OO0,-
OOO-Barrel Supply Can't
Find Cash Market; AS
scrts Deals Saved Farmers

How the United States Grain Cor
poration, having bought large stocks Of
wheat in order to keep the market
price to the farmer level with the gov
crnmcnt's guarantee, now finds itself
with more than 100000 barrels OF
-four on it's hands is told in state
ment issued yesterday by julius 5.
Barnes, United States Wheat Director.
The grain corporation proposes to sell
its surplus to hungry European ma
tions on credit, admitting it cannot
find a cash market for the flour.
Mr.. Barnes's statement Is issued In
reply to criticisms of the plan to sell
this flour abroad on credit. The docu-
ment admits the price of flour was
artifcialy sustained on several oc-
casions by grain corporation purchases
in order that the governments guar
anteed price to the farmers might not
be cut by market conditions.
''It is probable" the statement says,
"that in buying continuously at the
guarantee price in this manner It has
saved the farmers of the United States
over $1,000, 100000, which they would
have lost had the price, under the
pressure Of the crop movement, sunk
below the guarantee" The document
does not explain that the 81 ,00O, 900
thus saved to the farmer came OUT OIL
the pockets Of the public in the form
Of higher bread prices.
Having thus dry nursed the farmers,
the document continues, the grain cor
poration had no right to hoard its
holdings when the market price ad'
vanced to the point where the farmers
needed no artificial protection. But IN
the course Of its operations the grain
corporation accumulated stock OF
-four exceeding 100000 barrels.
"For almost six months it has tried
to sell this flour for cash, on basis OF
cost plus accrued charges, at home and
abroad" Mr. Barnes says. Apparently,
though, the American people do not
take kindly to flour of thi particular
grade. which is called in the Barnes
letter "soft winter" The corporation
even conducted an extensive advertls-
ing campaign, but it is confessed its
sales in all directions have not more
than equalled the current purchases OF
flour which it was obliged to keep on
making in order that tho price to the
farmer might be held up.
The surplus th1s accumulated is the
flour which the United States will sell
abroad on long credits.

mans aged mother, Mrs. Johanna Oster-

sequently sold it, and it has not been
recovered.
