Worcester, Mass. Jan. 19.-Wanted:
A millionaire who is tired of this
earth end who would like to travel
to the moon.
There are many who would like to
leave the earth, but they haven't the
money to pay the fare.
Robert II. Goddard, Phi. D., pro-
fessor of physics at Clark Univer-
sity is ready to. start the excursion.
All he needs is a passenger able to
pay his passage.
Goddard proposes to shoot rocket
to the outer RIM of the universe. 1t
would contain instruments to record
temperatures, air pressure, humidity,
/ wind velocity and other data of the
mysterious regions. But he needs
someone to finance the experiment:
Many Volunteers
When he recently announced that
it would be feasible to shoot man
in the rocket and that it might travel
to the moon, 100000 miles away, he
was besieged with volunteers for the
trip. But
The rocket might turn and come
back to earth. 1t might keep on 60
ing and going, nobody knows where
but many are willing to take chance.
There's Captain Charles N. Fitz-
gerald, commander of the New York
City air police. He says he's anxious
to make the trip.
"The Journey promises to be rough
one,' says Goddard.
Boosted BY Blasts
'"The rocket would be shot from
long-barreled gun. 1t would contain
auxiliary charges to boost it along
as the initial velocity decreases.
Each boost would be terrific
bump
The rocket rider would have diff
ficlllt time making entries in his
notebook.
When the rocket reaches the moon,
if it does, there will be great eX-
plosion to inform the mundane OBJ
servers that the trip is ended.
The nose Of the rocket is to carry

powder.

reaching the moon is not known But
if he should land safely, others might

Committee Aiding European
Riddles Collects Money in
Record Time
$1,000 IS SENT AWAY
Total Fund About $780,
Chairman Thanks All for
Their Help

Burleigh county has done it's bit
toward the relief of suffering children
Of central and eastern Europe.
J. N Roherty, county chairman, af-
ter checking up today, found that the
fund solicited for the European Re-
lief Administration had been obtained
and the women's teams, which began
solicitation in Bismarck under the d.
rection of Mrs. D. n. Register, were
directed to discontinue their appeal at
noon toaay.
One thousand dollars was dispatch
ed today to New York for immediate
use of the European Relief Admins
tration, which is in great need of
funds to provide medical supplies and
food for the children of the war raw
aged areas.
$1,5O0 Collected.
It was estimated that not less than
$1,5OO had been collected in Bismarck
alone. Reports have not been received
from the county, outside of the city.
1t was the plan to have the mems
team make the canvass yesterday and
the wOmen's teams today.
The European Relief Administra
ton did not set quota. Herbert
Hoover, who issued the appeal through
the Literary Digest, estimated the
fund needed to tide the children of
central and eastern Europe over un-
til the next harvest at $23,00O,0OO and
$10,000,000 for medical supplies. Tt
was estimated by local committeeman
that $1,5OO was about the proper pro-
portion for the county.
People Liberal.
Mr.. Roherty said that it was found
that many people already had con-
tributed to the fund through the Lit
erary Digest. People were liberal IN
their giving, he said, and added a
word of appreciation for the teams
which made the successful solicitation
in such short time.

| Is the refusal Of the state indus

nor Frazier, Attorney General William
Lemkc and Commissioner of Agricul-
ture John N. Hagen responsible for
the financial plight of the state in
dustries?
independents in the state think it
is; the Nonpartisans deny 1t.
The subject of state finance was de-
bated at length in the senate yester-
day afternoon when the resolution Of
fered by Senator Leiderbach, giving
vote Of confidence" to the indus
trial commission, to 'counteract' the
vote Of lack or confidence OF the
house, was debated. The vote was
IS to "A for the resolution.
Senator Rusch of Cass county,
gave his explanation as to the diff
Guilty OF the sale Of bonds to finance
the state enterprises. A."
NO maturity is provided for these
bonds" said Senator Rusch. mo
provision is made for refunding them.
The big bond houses do not keep the
bonds-they sell them to customers
And they want guarantee that they
will mature and Will be paid"
Senator Leiderbach asserted the "42
taxpayers suit" was responsible for
the situation. He said that the Bank
of North Dakota had sold a million
dollars worth Of bonds and could have
sold more, when the suit was insti
tuted.
Engage in Tilt.
Senator Rusch and Senator Lieder-
bach engaged in little tilt.
"If you people will help us, we can
sell the bonds" said Senator Rusch,
who declared that the program laid
before the industrial commission by
the bankers committee which was en-
deavoring to sell state bonds was Sim
ply the guarantee asked by the attor-
neys for the eastern bond houses.
Senator Liederbach challenged this
statement, saying there was no bond
market\ \nOw.
Senator Rusalh said bonds were be-
ing sold every day-that the city of
Fargo sold 100000 worth of bonds
only last week.
Until North Dakota bonds arc
made legal in the eyes of the attor-
neys OF the big bond houses they can't
be sold" said Senator Rusch.
Says Program Blocked.
Senator Liederbach said that the in
dustrial program had been blocked
but that the people demand that IL
be carried out, and he was going to-
fight to see that it was carried out.
He said he didn't believe the bank
ers were sincere when they said they
could sell the Bank Of North Dakota
bonds and industrial commission
bonds, at this time. They cannot be
sold until normal times return, he
said.
1--WE are not here TO say lts gulns ~
be a bowling success" said Senator
Liederback, referring to the industrial
program. Were not claiming that.
but unless we try this out we are lia
BILE to get something lot worse, and
l. don't want to be here to see it
come" i
He said he thought much better
showing would have been made by
the industrial program if the "42 tax
payers suit" had not blocked it.
He said that only 100000 of bonds
for the mill and elevator at Grand
Forks had been sold when work was
started, and that had it not been for
the Bank of North Dakota it could not
have been financed.
