said, is expected to call meeting next

ployment through public works, Secre-
tary Hoover made reports from the p
states comprising the northeastern
section of the country showing the
award of more building contracts in
September than in any other month
this year, or any September on record.
The amount was 1.5 per cent greater
than in August the statement said,
while during the past 10 years, Sep
tember building contracts have averaged
14.5 per cent less than in August.
Comprehensive statistics have been
collected by the conference, Mr.. Hoov-
er said, to be made available for COM
munities to use in handling their un-
employment situations.

Irving krisberg, a restaurant
proprietor. that two men were
coming soon for breakfast and
she hoped they would be we'll
treated-Krisberg thought some
thing was up. He became con-
vinced of it when two men ap-
peared and one of them thrust a
revolver into Krisberg's face,
while the other seized the cash
register. Bystanders paused to
watch the drama and somebody
thought TO send for policeman.
At this point one intruder
dropped the cash register while
the other dropped the revolver
and both dashed to a waiting taxi
one jump ahead of the patrolman.
Bystanders saw a demure damsel
pick up the discarded gun and
walk quickly away with it. Such
was their chivalry that nobody
thought to detain her.
Doubtless the young lady and
the young men. also, had trouble
with their theroid glands. This,
according to several physicians,
was all that allied Edna Wilsey,
the 1S-year-old student nurse
who some weeks ago stole dress
from another nurse. An enlarged
gland was held responsible for
Edna's misdeed and after the
gland had been treated she came
up for sentence. The judge
seemed to pin no great faith to
the theroid idea and when nobody
would guarantee that reducing
Edna's gland had increased Edna's
integrity, the judge put her on
probation.

An energetic search for the miss
ing was made Sunday, but the work
was necessarily slow because of the
difficulties in clearing away the
wreckage in the sea of mud and
water. 1t is considered doubtful if
the bodies of some of the missing will
ever be recovered. as they are be-
lieved to have been washed into the
muddy waters of Howe sound.
Manager ]. Donohue of the Brit
tania mines. Sunday night described
the efforts made by those on duty at
the mines proper, three miles back
from the town. to warn the residents of
the danger. When the railway fill
which caused the accumulation of
water in the hills gave way and re-
leased roaring torrent into the
creek, a warning of the disaster to
come was sent over the private tele-
phone line N the mines. The mes
sage was received by Miss Ellen Pat
terson. telephone operator on duty at
the compressor plant in the village.
She promptly rang everybody con-
nected by telephone. relaying the
miners message:
For Gods sake get out of your
houses; flood coming down the
creek"
Before the warning could be under
stood and circulated. the town. the
waters crashed down the mountain
side, sweeping away transmission
lines and plunging the village into
darkness.
The waters had fallen 1000 feet in
their three-mile journey down the
mountain and smashed straight
through the village itself, which is
under several feet of water strewn
with timber. telegraph poles. furniture
and other wreckage. Most of the
houses were without strong founda-
tons and yielded readily to the surge
of the flood.

|VESTOS' LEAD CUT
IN NORTH DAKOTA
RECALL ELECTION
Late Reports Give Independent
Candidate Majority of 9,2S2;
Townley Still Confident.

Fargo, \. D.. Oct. So BY The
Associated Press. Both Independ
ent and Nonpartisan league factions
seemed agreed Sunday night that the
majority for r. A. Nestos, Independ
ent gubernatorial candidate in Friday
statewide recall election. would be
from $500 to $500 RecapituIatior
| of previously tabulated returns, with q
few additional reports received Sun
| day. showed that 1.S2S of the states
2,OSS precincts gave Nestos 106, As
votes and Governor Lynn J. Frazier
Nonpartisan, 96,S66
This represents a majority of 9,2S2
in total vote of 203.O14. In the
general election last year. when the
same number of votes had been
counted, the Independents had lead
of only loo which was wipd out
and a Nonpartisan ajority of 1000
established when the full 10000 bal
lots had been tabulated
Slight reductions in he estimat ed
Independent majority were made Sun
day at that factions state headquar-
ters and by the Independent news
they set the probable lead at nearly
1000. while Nonpartisans looked for
cut to possibly 1000.
a. G.. Townley, president of the Ma
tional Nonpartisan league, is in Fargo
winding up some personal and Off
cial affairs before going to Jackson,
Mimi, to surrender for service of a
9O-day Jail sentence, imposed on con-
yiction Of violation of the Minnesota
sedition laws.
There is just as much Nonpartisan
league sentiment in North Dakota to-
day as there ever was" Mr.. Townley
told The Associated Press. also,
there are just as many league votes
Over confidence on the part of farm
ers with a consequent failure to vote,
was responsible for the defeat of the
leagues candidates"
The Fargo Forum, an independent
newspaper, Sunday night made an es-
innate of the result, fixing the final
Nestos majority at $500, the estimate,
it said, making abnormal allowances
for the leagues showing in unreported
precincts" The Forum is supervis-
ing collection of returns for the indie
pendent group of papers.
Future plans of the league in North
Dakota have not been formulated, and
official announcements in this regard
are being withheld. 1t was learned
however. that present
plans are to call state conference,
composed of delegates from each coun--
ty, when procedure will be agreed
upon.
THE league is not dead in North
Dakota" one leader said. 1T was
only somewhat asleep last Friday. The
primary election next June is the next
goal"
When Mr.. Townley was asked what
plans the league had for this state. he
said he had no voice in the affairs of
the league in this state, as the North
Dakota branch is guided entirely by an
executive committee composed of farm
ers. 1t was the first time he had an
nounced the leagues autonomy in
North Dakota.
