AIDS HOUSING
PROBLEM HERE
Provides Apartments
For Living Over Big
Garage

At least three families will have
living apartments in Devils Lake this
winter that would have been COM
PEELED to move elsewhere or accept
hotel Accommodations, according to ].
F. Quick, president Of the Lake Motor
company at the corner Of Fifth street
and Arnold avenue. MI. Quick, who
owns the property recently remodel
ed into an up-to-date garage, is rap
idly completing three apartments on
the second floor of the building but
already the rooms provided are en-
gagged. j. c. Kalbos and w. w.
Brown, officers of the Lake Motor
company together with Amos Elliott,
contracting carpenter, will move in
to the new quarters as soon as COM
pleted.
The plan has been suggested thru
Mr.. Quick's action, that many places
Of business in the city could be par
TALLY converted into apartments, u.s.
ing space not now available Or nee
essary for commercial purposes, to
help solve the housing problem in
Devils Lake. 1t has been declared
that even considering high costs Of
building material and other expens-
es Of remodeliRg, there are "many
such places in the city which could
be fitted up as flats and produce 4
good rate Of income from rents, max
ing a fair return on Investments"

POLICE DRAGNET IS SET
ON MADISON AVENUE,
But NOTHING HAPPENED

Smith street at Madison avenue
Yesterday afternoon, had the APP
pearance of moving picture
comedy featuring the Mack Sennett
cops. One finding themselves on
the street in this vicinity at o'clock
Yesterday wondered IL a robbery had
been planned on a bank, or If some
moving picture concern was making
a new laugh producer. Every time
a door opened or shut, police
mans head popped around the side
of a building. The motorcycle cops
were there, as were also the detec-
tives, and plain clothes men. - 1t was
learned later that the police had
been placed about this section, on a
tip to headquarters from a local
citizen that there were several Balti-
more men in town, carrying guns
The net was spread about the dis
trict where the gunner were sup
posed to visit, but no arrests were
made.
AS near as can be figured out, the
police were placed as follows: An
officer at the corner of Jefferson
street and Madison avenue, another
in q doorway on Smith street, just
west of Madison avenue, another in
a doorway on Smith street just east
traffic duty at Madison avenue and
Smith street, motorcycle men with
chugging machines were stationed
in convenient places, while plain
clothes men and detectives were
walking up and down the street.
Others were stationed. it is said, in
| buildings and on roofs SO that moth
ing would escape them.
AS nothing came to pass at that
hour, the men were called off by the
roundsman, who instructed them to
return at O'Clock, when they again
| took up the watch from their orig
| inal stations. The men were told to
wait the coming out of three men
| from lawyers Office on Smit..
street. Many people gathered to see
| the fun, when a young fellow came
| out of one of the business houses on
Smith street and started to run
! down Madison avenue. One of the
officers went after him and searched
him. but found nothing. The fellow
claimed he saw all the policemen
and was afraid they were going to
raid his place so he was going home.
A short time later two men
| emerged from the lawyers office;
one was searched by policeman.
who found he did not have any con-
| cealed weapons. The other party
was not touched. A short time after
this the roundsman again dismissed
his men. No arrests were made,
because, it is said, the man making
the report to police headquarters did
not wish to press charge against
the Baltimore men.
The city is alive with rumors to-
day concerning the event. and. ac-
cording to the most reliable of these
the men in question were bootleg
gers who live in Baltimore and
have been travelling between this
| city and Baltimore for sometime.
| Yesterday they came here for an
other load of liquor. for which they
are reported to have paid in the
neighborhood of $4,000.

RELEASE Z MEN
IN HOLD Up CASE
Joseph Zboyan and Joseph
Brombert Freed After Hear
ing in Metuchen Boro Court

Joseph Zboyan, of 125 State
street, arrested by Motorcycle OH
Ger Frank Seiboth Thursday after
noon on a warrant sworn out by
Chief Hutchinson, of Metuchen. was
released on his own recogniZance by
the Metuchen authorities early yes
terday morning. Joseph Brombert,
the second man arrested in this
case. was also released on his own
recognizance later in the day.
These two men, it was believed,
were mixed up in the attempted
holdup of the whiskey car of VAL
entine Cudar of Washington. at
Metuchen on Tuesday afternoon, but
Zboyan's story to the Metuohen au-
thorities proved that he was in his
place of business al the time of the
reported attempted holdup, and for
this reason was released.
Zboyan stated this morning that
Officer Seiboth came to his place Of
business Thursday and said that he
had a paper to serve. He was taken
to police headquarters here and
later to Metuchen. and when ask ed
in regard to the reported holdup,
Zboyan stated he did not know any
thing about it. He claimed today
that his car was loaned to fellow
q
by this party. Zboyan claims to
have been told that his car was left
on Jefferson street, just around the
corner from New Brunswick ave-
nue.. about 11:15 o'clock Tuesday
morning, but that he did not bother
going for ii until night. The at
tempted holdup was committed be-
tween the hours OF 2 and 2 o'clock
Tuesday afternoon.
The man stated that the New
York license plates were on his car
for four days, but same were taken
off by the party he loaned the car to
because the latter did not have a
New York drivers license. Xboyan
also stated that another local man
was the real owner of the car, he
only having a little interest in same.
Zboyan further stated that the
authorities do not know whether
the holdup car was a Paige or Buick
make, and that they are not sure of
the first two numbers. He stated
that Washington bootleggers come
into this section and change their
license plates so that they accord
with live license numbers in this
section, and for this reason il is pos
sible that the job was pulled off by
Washington men.
In regard to the damaged running
board Zboyan stated that this part
of the machine was damaged Mon
| day while he was in the machine.

SCHOOL BUSES
Alderman A. G. Waters Now
Planning to Give Children
Better Transportation.

When the schools open again on
Monday following the Thanksgiving
vacation there will be two buses
instead of one making the special
school trip" arranged by Alderman
Albert G.. Waters, chairman of the
judiciary committee. Although one
bus was put into operation on We'd
nesday with only one days notice
being given parents of children liv-
ing in the southern part of the city.
which is touched by neither trolley
nor bus lines, the bus on its return
trip was filed to capacity. AS re-
suit an additional automobile will
start out Monday morning to make
the usual trip toward the grammar
school.
Efforts are being made by Alder
man Waters, Mrs. Charles w.
Naulty, Jr., president of the Gram
mar School Parent-Teacher Asso-
citation, and Henry S. Hulse. Jr.,
principal of the grammar school, to
arrange some means of furnishing
transportation TO children who live
in portions of the city not now COW
cred by busses or trolleys and yet
not interfere to a great extent with
the present out-of-town bus sched-
ule.
At present this system Is only in
an experimental state and changes
will be made where it is thought bet
ter results will be obtained. Owing
to the fact that noon is a busy part
of the day with the buss drivers. it
is impossible, Alderman Waters
states. to divert any large number
of them to the schools to take the
children home for lunch. Sufficient
busses are not available, he states,
to go out to all portions of the city
with the school children.

HUERTA CABINET RESIGNS
TO GIVE OBREGON FREE REIGN

BY The Associated Pres.
MEXICO CITY, Nov 81 - All
members Of the cabinet of Provi-
sional President de la Huerta today
rendered their designations in order
that General Alvaro Obregon. the
incoming executive, who will be in
augurated Dec. l. may have free
choice in naming department heads.
1t IS probable these designations will
be accepted as the last official act
of the provisional president.
General Obregon. who left for the
country for "a rest, has steadfastly
refused to give details relative to
the personnel of his cabinet. He
said he would make the announce
ment of his selections on Dec. l..
Newspapers have speculated
whether Senator Albert b. Fall. of
New Mexico. would come to Mexico
City. following orders by Roberto
Pesquera. confidential agent of the
Mexican government in Washington,
who instructed border consuls not
to wise the senator's passport. Edi-
torial opinion reflects the belief that
Pasqueira has at least committed a
diplomatic blunder most unfortu-
nate at this time.
