Mim0f VII Raise Fund
to Boost Enumeration

A meeting OF the Board OF Govern
ors Of the Town Criers Club and
members of the Association Of Com
merce committee in charge Of the
proposed immigration plan, dined at
the Leland this evening and complet-
ed plans for raising fund of $4,000
which is to be expended for pam
phlets to be distributed thruout the
east. The members Of the finance
committee will meet at the Associa-
ton of Commerce rooms Monday to
start out on their drive for funds.
1t is believed that the amount will
easily be raised.
The committee plans on having
printed from 10000 to 10000 at
tractive illustrated booklets, telling
the story of success in the territory
tributary to Minot. The various re-
sources of this section Of the state
will be- set forth in conservative
manner. Eastern farmers will be told
why they should consider coming to
northwestern North Dakota. The
pamphlets will be carefully prepared
by members Of the Town Criers Club,
opponents of Truthful Advertising.
North Dakota farms have been too
large. There is plenty OF room for
many more farmers and stockmen in
northwestern North Dakota The
day of intensified farming has arriv-
ed. Let's help tell the story Of North
Dakota throut the east and let our
friends from that section in on good
thing.
We need more farmers and they
need North Dakota. Let's help them
to succeed and we'll get our share of
benefit out of it while we are doing>it.

TREATIES TO HEAD
TAX BILL DEBATE
Chairman Penrose Says
Measures Must First Be
Acted Upon in Senate.

The tax revision bill may be taken
up for a while tomorrow. Chairman
Penrose of the finance committee said
today. but after that it will go over
until the peace treaties have been
acted upon. Senator Penrose said he
still believed the tax measure could
he passed before the end of the month
and that night sessions would be
held If necessary.
Compromise Plan Adopted.
Adoption by the Senate of the re-
publican compromise plan for repeal
or all the transportation taxes Janu-
airy l was completed with the ac-
ceptance without dissenting Vote
of an amendment removing the tax
en parcel post packages. Senator
Keed. democrat. Missouri. sought to
extend the repeal to levies on mes
sages by telegraph, telephone, caple
and radio. but his motion was voted
down. 30 to ~.
Committee amendments to the bill
accepted included those imposing
license taxes on brokers and others,
and manufacturers taxes of cents
a gallon or cereal beverages. still
drinks and unfermented fruit juices,
ila cents a gallon on finished foun-
tain sirups, and cents Il pound on
carbonic acid gas.
Until the chewing gum tax was
reached the Senate made fairly rapio
progress on the bill But there it
stuck for nearly two hours with q
discussion of chewing gum, tariff and
other subjects.
\ republican proposal to repeal the
2 per cent tax on this gum was op-
posed by Senator Reed, who said the
Senate had voted to retain $2S,500, 200
in, q
of messages by wire and radio, while
it was proposed Ito refund one twen-
ty-eighth of that amount to Wrig-
ley"
Senator Watson, republican. Indi-
ana, said the information before the
nance committee was that factories
of the American Chicle Company were
closed down and that the removal of
the tax had been suggested to get
hose plants started up again. He
declared that so far as the commit
tee knew MIR. Wrigley" did not care
about the tax; that he never had
asked that it be removed.
During the course OF Senator
Reeds address there was reference to
the agricultural bloc" and Senator
Moses. republican. New Hampshire
wanted to know how many agricul-
turalists were in that bloc" This
led later to an address by Senator
Ashurst. democrat, Arizona, who de-
clared the time had come to quit re-
ferring derisively to the agricultural
bloc" He warned that 1t was COM
posed of democratic and republican
senator's who were determined to get
Legislation through the Senate for the
benefit of the farmers and who were
equally as determined that the min
ions of Wall street" should not con-
troll tax and tariff legislation.
