Business Moves Rapidly.

Facing the closing days of the seven
teenth legislative session with little or
no real constructive work done, both
houses of the state assembly girded
themselves and went determinedly to
work to clear up all their pending
business before March s, when, by
state law, the seventeenth legislative
assembly goes out of existence.
Disposition of scores of matters was
made simple matter because of the
fact that practically all political meas
nres originating in the house where
the Independent faction is in control
are killed in the senate where the Nom
partisans hold the balance of power,
and those coming from the senate
meet q like fate in the house.
One outstanding tendency of both
houses is toward strict economy. Some
protest has gone up over the pairing Of
the highway bill, and many are asking
more generous allowances for the edu-
cationai and other public institutions
of the state. TX

Walsh Committee Says It Find,
No Evidence Of Fraud

Administration Of Fleet BY one Exeeu

Declared Without Precedent
In History 81 World. "a

Observation-Disclosures Of the
governments merchant feet by one
executive instead of by seven-mem.
Der board as the law requires, is re.
commended by the Walsh committee
which reported to the House after its
1S months investigation Of the opera.
tions of the Shipping board during and
since the war. The report was unani.

Republicans on the committee in sign.
ing 1t. This was said to be unusual.
The report reviewed in detail ship.
building activities Of the government
with the conclusion that considering
the program as whole the accom-.
plishments in the number of ships con.
structed, the tonnage secured, and the
time within which ships were com.
pleted, these constitute the most re.
markable achievement in shipbuilding
that the world has ever SEEN"
No Dishonesty Found.
The committee declared it had found
no evidence to prove that dishonest or
fraudulent motives had actuated any
member of the Shipping board or any
Of the trustees of the Emergency Fleet
corporation.
'There has been waste and ineifi.
cheney and lack of cooperation in the
tremendous operations of this govern.
ment agency" the report continued.
THE reason or justification given for
this is the stress under the war emer.
gency.
1T must be remembered that the
Shipping board in dealing with the war
emergency was confronted with many
difficulties. The program of construc.
ton as we'll as operation was gigantic,
1t involved an expenditure of more
than 3,500,OOO,O0 a sum greater than.
any expended by any corporation in q
similar period of time.
Little Experience.
MANY officials and board members
were without experience either in ship
building or operation. No adequate or
ganization existed at the beginning.
There was shortage Of shipbuilding
skill as we'll as shipbuilding facilities.
The need for ships was imperative and
constantly increased during the COM
bat period" q g
The report mentioned charges that
an effort had been made to collect
$26O,000 for personal expenses Of
Charles M. Schwab while director of
the Emergency Fleet corporations op-
erations, and that r. w. Boiling,
brother-in-law Of President Wilson, had
been irregular in his conduct as treas
urer of the board. Both had previous
ly been exonerated by the committee
which took occasion to reiterate that
the charge involving Mr.. Schwab "has
not been proved and is not true" and
that Mr. Bo''ing had not been guilty of
any wrongdoing whatsoever. ~

Both Houses Seek Economy.

That the pared appropriation for the
state highway commission passed by
the senate will make 1t impossible for
the commission to award any more
contracts is the belief of w. H. Robin
son, secretary and chief engineer Of
the commission.
Under the reduced appropriation
the entire field force available to the
state highway commission will be fully
occupied with completing the federal
aid work now under construction or
under contract" said Engineer Robin
son. Unless other provision is made
for the support Of the state highway
commission it will be necessary to for
felt all or nearly all Of the federal aid
available to the state, except that
secured by agreement with the secre-
tary Of agriculture for those projects
under construction or under contract.''

"About year ago I began suffer-

until Tanlac set me right have felt
so poorly that could hardly do my
work. My food seemed to do me little
good, If any, as my digestion was bad,

''After every meal there was q dull,
nagging pain in the pit Of my stomach
that kept me feeling miserable for
hours. 4

food would bloat me up terribly and
my nerves were so upset that would
lie awake half the night unable to
sleep. I was constantly having blind

over and straighten up quickly but
what everything seemed as dark az

bad I felt and he advised me to try
Tanlac and I just want to say he

Seen in Passing.

A large portion of the measures thus
far adopted in both houses come as
amendments to laws which already are
on the North Dakota statutes.
The. hottest fight of the session de-
velOped over the bill changing the
state election laws which passed the
house minus the senate amendments.
A measure to allow half the pro-
ceeds from the sale Of confiscated
whisky-carrying cars to 60 to the per-
sons making the capture was killed in
the house by the indefinite postpone
ment of 81 senate measure.
The house passed senate bill No.
1852, which provides minimum salary
for public school teachers at 500 q
year, elassifies them according to the
amount Of education and provides for
the highest class minimum of $1,000
a year. After Aug. 1, 1923, all teach
ers must have minimum requirement
Of four years high school education, or
II less, and teaching prior to the law
becoming effective, shall receive the
minimum salary.
It Is likely that the measure estab-
fishing children's code commission
and appropriating $500 for the ex-
penses thereof will become law.
The bills designed to restore grain
grading in the state to the railroad
commission were killed, carrying along
to defeat measures designed to exempt
from state inspection elevators which
hold federal licenses.
A strenuous fight in the house ac-
companied the killing. Of the senate

ing Of a state electric plant at Bis.
