NO SYMPATHY

In the wilds of the Blue Ridge
country there used to live an old
fellow whose wife made his life mis-
cradle. 1t was her custom to bounce
skillets, brickbats, pieces of stove
pipe and stove wood off the old
mans head.
One day neighbor rushed into the
old mans yard and cried, "Jim, hur-
ry down to the pastrue, your wife is
in fight with a bear"
'Not on your life," Jim replied,
pulling at the stem Of his corncob
pipe, "that bear got himself into
that fight and he can get out the
best way he can"

Billy Sundays Recipe
For Christians

"You can tell Christian by the
way in which he smiles good morn
ing,'" said Sunday. "You can tell
him by the way in which he helps a
poor old woman into the street car,
by the visits he pays to the sorrow
ing and the sick, by the comfort he
brings to the mourners when death
visits family, you can tell him by
the countless acts of Christian kind
ness and goodness. Some folks won't
play at all if they can't be Douglas
Fairbanks or Mary Pickford. But
Christians follow the advice Of Paul,
and Gin honor prefer one another"

Washington. March, 24.-All pa

to the case Of Grover C. Bergdoll, es-
capped American draft evader, now in
Germany, were transmitted to the
state department today at the direc-
ton of Secretary Weeks with a re-
quest that they be considered from
an international viewpoint.
The secretary said he had made q
careful study of the papers and
found nothing to indicate that any
formal request for return of Bergdoll
had been made Of the German gov
ernment. The war status between
the United States and Germany had a
natural effect on diplomatic relations.
Mr.. Weeks said. but he added that
Bergdoll had violated a British pass

Great Britain was at peace with Ger

ask for delivery of persons who had

Says Phone Industry
Cannot Go Back To
The Pre-War Basis
North Dakota Laws and High Prices
Reasons for Keeping Present Basis,
Declares A. j. McInnes.

Fargo. n. D.. March PA. j. Nc
Innes of Dazey, president of the North
Dakota Telephone association. told the
convention today that the telephone
industry can never return to the pre-
war basis for two reasons.
Laws Interfere.
His first reason was: That laws now
on the statute books have set or will
set wage minimum and this mini
mum is higher than the standard Of
wages prior to the war.
His second reason was: That where
there should be, and is, reduction in
the price of materials, yet the tele-
phone. industry does not use materials
in raw state, but manufactured ar
ticles, and as labor enters largely into
the prices of the manufactured article,
hence there is no immediate or sweep
ing reduction in the prices Of materi-
ais.
He added that the workmen's COM
pensation bureau and minimum wage
commission are two new factors that
must be considered in the business for
it appears that they are to stay.
There, no doubt. is merit in the
workmen's compensation" said Presi-
dent McInnes. but there is honestly a
difference Of opinion as to whether it
should be compulsory or not. The rate
of premium seems high and out of all
proportion to the hazard involved in
the telephone business.
Many Changes.
Thirteen months have passed since
we met in convention at Devils Lake.
Many changes have taken place since
then and most companies, in fact. I
might say all companies, have found
that they have been operating at a
loss.
Taking all these things into con-
sideration, and they must be consid-
cred, there is no prospect of reduc-
ton in the telephone rates, and those
companies who are operating on the
pre-war rate must get an increase. The
people generally cannot or do not un-
derstand why the telephone rates do
not come down when prices of raw
material come down. However, they
should realize that the rates did not
go up when prices on everything else
went up, and they benefited accord
ingiy. Regulatory bodies must recog-
nize conditions as they actually exist,
and should grant relief promptly
where necessary"

Nor are these state funds all. AS

the condition of the hank may justify
