School ,.~

A new $4,000 boys dormitory will
be constructed this summer at the
United States Indian school just west
of the city.
This was announced today by Clark
B. Dickinson, who yesterday assumed
the position of superintendent of the
school succeeding Adam Neff.
The new dormitory will be brick,
two stories in height and modern in
every respect. The federal appropria-
.tion for it is available Immediately
and bids will be called for soon.
In addition it is probable that an
addition to the school building will be
made and that the Baker property
will be acquired as a residence for
the superintendent.
Mr.. Dickinson said the numbers of
the shool would not be increased, but
rather that facilities for caring sor
the pupils now in the school are to
be bettered.
DR.. Dickinson comes from the Rose
bud reservation of South Dakota. He
has been in the Indian school service
for five years. Before that he was ir

wife is to be head teacher in the
school.
Mr.. Neff is transferred to Oregon in

changes in the corps of employees are
being made.

STRIKE OVER
ENTIRE NATION
SEEMS AVERTED
Employers and Printers Reach
Agreement in Many !
Cities
FOR THE 44.HOUR-WEEK

Chicago May 2.-Acceptance by en-
ployers in many of the larger cities
of the 44.hour week in the printing
industry today appeared to have
averted a nationwide strike in book
and Job printing shops although iso'
lated strikes in newspaper plants and
job printing Offices had been called to
take effect today. Local officials of
the International Typographical Union
were authorized by international
headquarters to call a strike where
employers refused to concede the a.
hour week. ...-.
In several cities strike votes also
were being taken by pressmen and
other unions in the printing industry.
About $50 locals throughout the
country had signed 44-hour'week con-
tracts with employers including job
printing shops in New York, Chicago,
Cincinnati, Milwaukee and lndianapo-
lis but in several cities including New
Orleans, St. Louis, Salt Lake and
Denver strikes were expected today.

cial Club
Each person living in Bismarck
should be awake to its advantages
to what is commendable in it--but not
indifference to its disadvantages, to
what needs improvement or correc.
tion. Community boosting does not
imply blindness to community defects
or needs. Rather it implies cogniz-
ance OF short comings, but an unflinch-
ing belief that they will be remedied.
The true booster has faith in his fel-
lows as we'll as his city. His very
attitude begets confidence in 0hers
that his faith is we'll founded. He
is an idealist. But he does not as
sert himself merely with much speak.
ing. He is dOer. He enlists in com.
munity enterprises. He not only be-
lieves that his city may be made the
best place on earth-f0r hinl-but he
sets about to make it that.
This faith-this belief in what has
been done, in what can be done, in
the ability to do, and this determina-
ton to achieve, are the stuff out of
which worth while communities are
made.
Bismarck has many advantages. 1t
is we'll located. From the time it was
touted as future Chicago it has been
imbued with the very essence of opti-
mism. It is progressive. 1t has much
to commend it. But 1t would be sui
cidal to devote ourselves to self con-
graduation for what we have done.
We must be forward looking. We can
not be that without seeing our short
comings To continue progressive
development we need more faith, more
faith in our city, more faith in each
other, more faith in ourselves, more
determination to do, more devotion
to community Improvement, and more
team work.
If we take pride during this week
of city advertising in what we now
possess, let US not shut our eyes to
me Bismarck of the future-a city in
dustrious, clean, decent, progressive
and beautiful. More than this, let us
set ourselves with firm resolve to the
building of that city for if it is brought
from the realm of dreams into the
realm of reality we must bring 1t.

United States Senate: Truman H,
Newberry in federal court In Michi-
gan for conspiracy to violate the fed
eral corrupt practices act was set
aside by the supreme court.
Conviction Of is other defendants
also was set aside. The court heln
that Congress was without power to
regulate primaries.
Justice McReynolds read the Opin.
ion to which Justice Mckenna with.
held as to the power of Congress,
but; agreed as to the decision.
" Chief Justice White also dissented
from the decision that Congress did
not have the power to control all cleo
tions, but agreed that the statute had
been grossly misconstrued."
Justice McReynolus said that the
lower court erred in dismissing the
demurrer of the defendant.
COVERS PRIMARIES.
"Obviously the corrupt practices
act covers also the primary and other
preliminary acts preceding an elec-
tion,' the court said. "The one ques
ton here is whether Congress may
limit expenditures of a candidate. The
source of such power is In section
four, article one. of the Constitution.
This gives Congress the power of reg
ulating the manner of holding elec-
tions and not Of elections.
Associate Justice Pitney also read
an opinion dissenting in part from the
courts decision and announced that
Associate Justices Brandeis and
Clark had occurred in the opinion he
filed. Chief Justice White said he
concurred in the reversal of the con-
viction but thought that a new trial
should be held. 49,.

He predicted that legislation would
come which would set aside today's
decision as to the power Of Congress
over primaries for otherwise gov

tention to the state in which the pri-
mary had been made the controlling
feature Of the election. In such cases,
he said "election is still-born and the

Upon reading of the courts deci-
sion Chairman Dillingham;, of the
senate elections committee, which has
charge Of the Ford-Newberry contest
said the committe would meet in a
few days to consider the effect of the
courts decision on future senate ac-
ton. Senator Dillingham; said it ap-
peared that with the corrupt practice

Senator Newberry, Republican. was
elected senator from Michigan over
Henry Ford. Ford contested and re-
count gave Newberry few more votes
than his original slender majority.
