Announcement is made of the en-
ployment of the Bishop Brissman 4
Co., audit company to audit the books
and records of the various state in
dustries. The selection of this COM
pany is in line with the economy pro-
gram of the new administration as
Bishop Brissman & Co., were employ
ed last winter in the senatorial inves-
tigation of the state industries and
are more familiar with the sources of
information than another concern
would be, and consequently are able
to do the work more speedily and &C.
onomically than anyone else. A speedy
audit of the affairs of the Bank of N.
D. is required before the new indus
trial commission will be able to get
the necessary information to plan
their future program in handling the
various industries. The new commits
sion has also announced the reduction
of salaries in several offices, cutting
the salary Of the manager of the
Bank of North Dakota from $4,000
per year to $4,000 per year, the mana
ger of the rural credits department
is cut from $4,000 to $4,000 per year
and the secretary of the industrial
commission from $4,000 to $4,000 per
wear. The commission has named A.
Mykelby to be temporarily in charge
of the mill and elevator at Grand
Forks, under construction. Mr. N.Y.

up the condition of these buildings
at this time.

months would be required to bring
the army down to such a figure.

UNITED OPPOSITION
URGED BY KITCHIN

Scotland Neck, n. c., Aug. 1S.-(By
A. P.)-Urging House Democrats to
line up solidly in caucus against the
Republican Tax Revision Bill, Repre-
sentative Claude Kitchin, Democrat
leader, in telegram last night to
Representative Garrett. of Tennessee
acting minority leader, declared the
proposed repeal Of the excess profits tax
and the substitution Of the Is per cent
corporation tax means that the big
''proftcering corporations" will be re.
lieved of at least $500. 900 900 in taxes
which will be paid by corporations OF
smaller incomes. Support of the bill
by House Democrats, Representative
Kitchin added. would prove fatal
mistake for every individual Democrat
voting for it. ~
THE corporations in the United
States made net profits from January
/, 1916, to January 1. 1921, Of ap-
proximately $50. 900. 900, ,O0O," Repre-
sentative Kitchin said After de-
ducting all taxes paid since January 1,
1915. they have a clear profit left OF
$3S. 900. .0O0, 900, more than four fifths
of which was made by less than 10, ,OOO
corporations. and more than half OF
which was made by 1926 of the biz
protiteering corporations. which includes

Patriotism Dulled

'The many fees to be gotten from
others and the big one to be paid BY
'crgdoll, dullcd his patriotism and lurCd
him into questionable paths. No one
knew better than General Anscll that
his course was, at least, doubtful. His
own conscience seemed 10 have repri-
mRnded him, even before this invitation
commenced,
This is evidenced by the fact that
while upon the witness stand, when it
was taken for granted by those OF the
. commission that his thoughts had not
yet turned to his being possible par
don broker he admitted. by his famil-
inrity with the law in various juriSdic-
tons. that already his mind had turned
70 that feature of the case.
Then, when it was undertaken to as
certain to what limEt he would not go
for Il fee, he cited instances where other
attorneys had defended notorious char
acters. Particularly did he refer to the
defense of Aaron Burr. That manner
of defense of himself did not first come
to him while upon the witness stand.
This conclusion Is based upon the fact
that when he, but recently a general in
our army. was confronted with the
enOrmity of what he had done, he drew
from his pocket a statement prepared III
advance, citing cases, both American
and English. to justify not merely that
with which the committee, as indicated
by the questions, seemingly was con-
fronting him; but it is hoped to ap-
pear his own accusing conscience.
Wants Him Disbarred
General Ansell is now out OF the
army. He is beyond the jurisdiction Of
court martial proceedings, but he still
is within reach Of the just Indignation
Of an outraged people. The Congress
to which this report Is made can and
should provide against bis future pra"-
tice lcfore any of the departments, be-
fore any court martial or in the courts

power and integrity he has placed gold.

Then turning to an attack OF Demo
cratic policies during the war, MI
Fordney pointed out the cost OF the
Government had been increased from
81 900 900 900 to 5000, 900 600 year
and the number of governmental EN-
ployes from 400, 900 to 1,OOO, 900. lie
attacked the employment by the snip
ping Board of many more employees than
he said, was necessary. Just before go
ing out of Office, the last secretary OF
the Shipping Board, Mr.. Fordney said
employed eighty persons at salaries
ranging from $1,000 to S35O0. and in
London the board had employed 4OO
clerks where twenty were necessary.
Heckled as to why he voted to take
the railroads over during the war, MIR.
Fordney said:
Il voted to put the President in
hole. and we did,"
When attacked subsequently for this
statement, Mr.. Fordney demonstrated
he made it "jokingly." but in his speech
he said, Our fooling and tampering
with the railroads cost us more than
81 .000. 900 900 and Mr.. Burleson shows
tlrat fooling with the telephones cost
the people S14 900 ,O00." His attack
covered Democratic activities from
President Wilson's trips to Paris where.
he said, he "strutted around like
peacock" to the alleged making Of
contract by the Shipping Board with
mule dealer in New York.
Mr.. Garner, answering Mr.. Fordney,
said Republicans had given $4,000
600 900 to the railroads and were about
to give $500. 900. 900 more. Taking up
the tax law, he charged Republicans
of the Ways and Means Committee had
withheld information on the measure
from other members of the House.
The new tax bill, he said, shifts the
burdens from the rich to the masses.
The Secretary of the Treasury had only
one object, he alleged, and that was
the relief of the rich and not the poor.
Mr.. Garner said the bill relieved the
express companies of ST., 900, 900, but
does nothing for the parcels post.

The minority held there was no tes-

eral Ansell ''conspired to effectuate'
Bcrgdoll's escape, or was actuated by
improper motives. Similarly, though
declaring there was grave dereliction
of duty on the part Of Colonel Hunt,

"It was just exactly what I

which Ireland is to take among the

our undivided moral and financial
