NiUSelle SaIxtes Flags
At Scene of Irish Riot

Soon after traffic was resumed
on Fifth Avenue, following the
riot over the British flag at the
Union Club at Fifty-frst Street,
an automobile carrying soldierly
looking man stopped at the scene
of havoc.
The man saluted the flags
which swung from the Fifth Ave-
nue. window of the club--the
American flag flanked by the
French tricoror aud the British
cross. He had saluted them un-
der widely differing circumstance
across seas, for he was General
Georges Robert Nivelle. some
time commander of the legions of
France.
Whatever recollections the evil
dences of destruction at the club
aroused in the breast of the Gen.
eral We're kept to himself, as he
made no comment, and, after one
brief survey. the automobile

AS Banks Fail
Closing of l3 North Dakota
Institutions Attributed In

Organization in the State
Suspend Party Newspaper
League Loses Control of the
State Deposits; Finances
and Power Are DwindIing
Special Dispatch to The Tribune


FARGO, N. D., Nov 25.-The clos
ing of thirteen privately owned state
banks in North Dakota during the last
eight days is looked upon as spelling
disaster for the Nonpartisan League in
this and other states where it seeks
political power.
The closing Of the banks is an in
direct result of the control of this
state by the Nonpartisan League dur
ing the last four years. Much capital
ordinarily invested in farm mortagaces
and on deposit in banks in the state
for use in financing farming operations
has been withdrawn, and that with
drawal, coupled with the generally
tight money situation, has operated
to cause the suspension of business on
the part of the banks so far affected.
unquestionably other banks also will
close
Paralleling The closing of the group
OF private state banks is the prospec
tive reduction in the power Of the
Bank Of North Dakota, the institution
created by the Nonpartisan League
controlled state Legislature. In the
recent election the people approved
an initiated law which takes from the
state owned bank mOnopoistic control
OF public funds, and gives to treasurers
of political subdivisions of the state
the authority to deposit their funds in
private banks if they so desire. This
law Will result in almost ali deposits
OF the Bank of North Dakota being
taken from the institution, and it is
generally accepted in North Dakota
that the stateestablished bank has
lost the greater part of the power that
it has welded in the two years it has
operated.
Farm Products Depreciate
The closing of the group of privately
owned banks is accepted as being the
direct result of the deprecated value
of farm products, the refusal of the
farmers to sell their grain at the pres
ent prices and the fact that much money
ordinarily available for financing the
states business no longer is in the
state.
SO far as the Nonpartisan League Is
concerned it is the opinion of ali close
observers that it never viii be possible
for the organization to take the often
slve politically again in this or any
other state. The breaking down Of the
banks that have closed is being 90
cepted in neighboring states wherc the
league has sought power as beng .Ae
direct result of the leagues political
control of North Dakota. With this
handicap to overcome, political observ-
ers assert that the league can never
again become the commanding infu-
ence that it was prior to the recent
elections. Decisive defeats in those
electors in many states, followed by
this string of bank failures in tie only
state that the league controls, are ele-
ments that are almost certain to cir

Ave miles to the lap or q total Of l40
miles for the four laps. However, yes
terday. after the race was completed,
it was determined to reduce the total
figure to 1872 miles until an accurate
survey has been made. 1t is quite
probable that the wonderful perfor-
nance Of the Vervile Packard, and the
other contestants may be enhanced by
the survey.
Among the machines that came to
grief during the race were the DH-4's,
piloted by Major Davenport Johnson
and Lieutenant F. o. Rogers. Major
Johnson came down near Farmingdale
ano was slightly hurt. Lieutenant Kog-
ers was forced to land in Sperry Field
because of a broken connecting rod.

In addition to the Pulitzer Trophy,
the contestants raced for iour class

prize Of the contest committee OF the
Aero Club which was for $1,000 TO the
winner; $3.50 to second, and $500 TO
third place. with other money prizes to

carried first prizes of s35o each ano

VATICAN WITHDRAWS
BAN ON AUTOMOBILES

ROME, Aug. 11,-One by one the
last bulwarks o. conservatism dis
appear. The Vatican, which pre-
serves in it's life and ceremonies
so many picturesque custome and
ancient ways of doing things for a
long time sternly forbade the use
of automobiles by cardinals and
other ecclesiastics. Funeral looking
carriages drawn by black horses
conveyed the cardinals to and from
the functions at st. Peters or on
their visits to the pontiff in the
Vatican palace Now several of the
cardinals, including the English Car
dinal Gasquet, have motor cars which
convey them everywhere.
Not so long ago the attendants
in Elizabethan ruff and doublet and
sword who marshal the spectators
to their places in the great Vatican
functions. did not allow the use of
opera glasses to watch the wondrous
scene. At the canonization of Joan
Of Arc a body of photographers were
permitted to be present who took a
film OF the whole ceremony, SO that
when these picturesque historical
professions no more occur. this re-
production will recall it.

Senior Covarrubias proposes that
the ornate, braided uniforms

Besides arguing that Mexico should
