ownership Of the United States sisal
a barred this afternoon by J..
w. Brinton in an affidavit made before
H. F. O'Hare, federal referee in
bankruptcy, with a view to having the
Townley bankruptcy case reopened.
Townley told Brinton in effect, =.
the latter sWOre, that he knew the
N~Onpartiaan League could not last
for eve and that he wanted the
Florida enterprise as q nest egg
when the league should blow up.
To finance the scheme he used in
parts funds Of the Nonpartisan pub
fishing Co., Of which Brinton claims
he Is the real owner, and which were
obtained from North Dakota farmers
as subscription payments for the Nom
partisan Leader, and other league
publications.
Br1nton's testimony was given under
subpoena issued at: the request Of F..
B. McCutcheon, trustee for Townley's
creditors, and Francis Murphy, at
torney for the creditors. Along with
other matters it will be filed i'm federal
court with the application for the re-
opening OF the proceedings under
which which Townley was discharged
as bankrupt by Judge c. F. Amidon.
According, to Brinton's story, he
first heard of the Sisal proposition
late in 1916 when Edwin Lundin, a
Florida land owner attempt to in
terest Townley in the proposition of
acquiring Sisal growing property in
Fargo. This took place, Brinton said,
at the Gardner hotel, Fargo.
Early in 1917 Brinton said he was
in Los Angeles. Cal, and received a
telegram from Townley asking him to
go to Florida for further ~investiga-
ton of the Sisal proposition. Brin-
ton made the trip which took several
weeks, Townley. paying the expenses,

Men AT Montreal To
Remain At Work; Cleve-
! land Pressmen, Press
Feeders And Binder.
Agree To Sign Up For 48
Hour Week.

Chicago. Ill, July 11.-George l.
Berry. president of the International
Printing Freshmen and Assistants
union, has advised Pressmen's Union
No. 81 of Montreal to remain at work
on the .4S-hour week basis and to ask
for. arbitration. according to a tele-
gram which is as follows:
"My advice is to remain at
work and ask for arbitration.
Will aid you in every way pos
sible."
Signed. George L. Berry.
While the action OF the pressme1,
in various parts Of the rountry has
been along seemingly contrary lines
ever since May 1. the beginning of
the strike for the 44-hour work
week. this, however, is 1.-The first real
definite advice from the International
union to stay at work and ask for
arbitration.
Heretofore, all the unions have
maintained that the 44-hour question
was not one that could be submitted
to arbitration, and the Typographical
Union still maintains thai attitude.
1t is therefore interesting to note
that the president of the Pressmen's
Union now recognizes that the mat
ter, may be submitted to o~rbitration..
Added to the above comes the re-
port from Cleveland, Ohio, dated
July 8. announcing the first rea.
break in the local ranks of the print
ers' strike, declared May 1 for a ~.
hour work week. when a joint CONF
mittee representing the pressnen,
the pressfeeders and bookbinders met
with the executive committee of the
Master. Printers association, and
agreed to the signing of a three.
year contract IN the basas OF a 49,
hour work week.

Did Israel's princes of old.
How shall We fashion our temple
From che wood and silver and gold

As Israel's temple of old?
Our soul helps with upward striving
Beyond wood or silver or gold
To freedom of thought and action g..

The heart blesses If God he within it
Forgetting wood and silver and gold
And gives peaceful enduring affection
Like Israel's promise of old.
Our might woras as will immortal

Not only of wood and silver and
