 OF YOUNG PEOPLE
tBy the AssocYated Press)

New York, July 7.-An appeal to Christian Endeavorers throughout the world to oppose Sabbath dissertation, indecent dress, sensuous and promis- cuous dancing and suggestive moving pictures was made by the Rev. Fran cis E. Clark, president, at the Sixth Worlds Christian Endeavor conven- tion here yesterday.
 In outlining proposed activities for the coming year he said: q should like to see a league of Endeavorers set themselves against indecent dress, senuous, promiscuous dancing and sen- sual and suggestive moving pictures, all of which are destroying the mod esty and eating out the souls of mil lions of young people. Let not Chris tain Endeavor by trained by practice that lead to conformity with the world, the flesh and the devil.
 "The home is also our sphere of ac- tion. We are all children or parents or brothers or sisters. We belong to homes. Why should not family SHIiotid EIuedNOT De d NlJdl part or our program for the years to come? Many of us may establish or help sus- tain family prayers, at least breakfast table prayers, even in these busy days.
 "The decline of family religion is terrible menace to the Christianity of the future. The men and women of generations yet unborn will have req son to bless you if you stem the tide of worldliness in the home and estab- fish there an altar to our God.
 "We cannot escape our relation to the community and the nation. Chris tian Endeavor must be patriotic but not partisan. It must take it's place against the dissertation of the Sab bath and of every high and holy thing. It must stand for temperance and purity. In other words, it must stand everywhere and always for Christian citizenship"

HUCKABY IMPROVES
 FROM BULLET WOUND

Mark Huckaby continued his steady improvement today and is thought to be virtually out of danger from the wounds received Monday when he was shot in the killing at Kings Bridge. No sign of infection or inflammation has appeared in his wounds and it is hoped danger from this source is past. Besides the shot which entered his body, MT. Huckaby was grazed by numerous others, which left small scratches along his right side.

There is always more or less
difficulty in finding variety for the
school lunch. Sandwiches usually
form the main part of the meal and
these should be made of all kinds
of breads. Use plenty of butter
and let the filling be hearty, con-
centrated food. The bulky foods
should be supplied by fruit-apple
or grapes or an orange.
If possible pack a small thermos
bottle for hot drink or soup. Hot
chocolate is beloved and is an ex-
cellent food. Do not put pie in a
school lunch.

The Buy-Off Fails

The combination Of financial inter-
ests within and without the state who
hoped to turn the key in the Bank OF
North Dakota, the Home Building AS
ISOLATION and all state industries ex-
cept the mill and elevator, has failed
again.
The purchase price offered was the
guarantee of the sale of $7,OOO,OOO.OO
worth of state bonds.
Due it is said, to a "gentleman's
agreement" between local financlers
and those of the eastern money cen
ters, North Dakota bonds will not be
salable without the assent of the To-
cal bankers. The local bankers refuse
to give this assent unless they can
dictate the legislation and activities OF
the state government, and, in fact, null
lily the entire Nonpartisan program.
1t was believed BY these financiers
that the time was ripe for putting
on the screws. Deflation had reduced
the financial condition Of the state
and the Bank of North Dakota pinched
between inability to sell the bonds or
to get it's money from the local banks
without wrecking them-was thot
to be in such condition as to make the
Industrial Commission ready to list
to thanking reason"
Had the bonds been sold, the money
which is now said to be frozen" in
So, 600, 900 of loans to the farmers of
the state, in over $1,000, 10000 in
vested in the state mill and elevator,
would have been available. The state
administration anticipating the sale OF
these bonds used the Bank of North
Dakota as a financing institution for
the state industries-which was it's
when created, and was SO
stated in the campaign of 1919, when
the matter was submitted to the peo-
pie.
AS it now stands the bankers have
suddenly become sensitive and have
announced that they do not wish to
negotiate for the sale of the states
bonds because it may appear that, in
exchange for their services they are
seeking to dictate Ihe manne OIL gov
eminent the people of the state may
have"
This is exactly what has appeared!
The bankers decline to make it a
business deal. They not only ask their
usual interest and commission and the
return of their money at the end of
the period of the bonds, but they also
ask in addition, that the people of the
state shall abandon state ownership
and operation of all industries but one
and that one shall be circumscribed
and limited both as to amount invest
ed and as to it's activities.
To such a business proposition"
there could be but the one answer,
That answer was failure of the nego-
tiations.

mitted to testify, unhindered and un-
questioned to his " l Think" and II
am not positive, but" and IT assume"
that Mr.. Cathro or Mr.. Lemke or
Governor Frazier knew or did or said
this or that. Wednesday morning Feb.
8, saw him continue reading into the
record his personal opinions and spites
and to present without check the back
stairs gossip he offered as "testi-
mony." On his second day he flatly
denied the assertion of the old gang
newspapers that he had forced himself
on the House audit investigating COM
mittee.
He appeared that evening as a wit
ness before the senate committee and
there, on oath, stated that he had come
to Bismarck in obediance to a subpoe-
ma served on him in St. Paul for the
House Audit committee. Cross-exam-
ined by Mr.. Sinkler for the Senate
committee, he admitted that he had
never heard of Attorney General Lem
Ike receiving any remuneration from
the League or from any other organi-
cation, other than the small salary
paid Mr.. Lemke by the Nonpartisan
League.
1t is a rather curious circumstance,
commented upon by many, that the
House Committee seemed rather
ashamed of it's witness, and attempted
to make the public believe that he
v%oluteered his testimony and that the
House did not call him. Brinton's
statement that he responded to a sub
poena from the House committee sad
died the committee with it's proper
onus of shame.

D0|NCS AT THE
STATE CAPITOL
Leaguers Withdraw

Denied for the third or fourth time
their request that they be allowed
counsel, Representatives Johnson,
Weld and Hanson, Leaguers, withdrew
from the house audit investigating
committee Feb. Z.
Before finally taking this step, Rep
resentative Johnson of Steele ad-
dressed the committee on behalf of
himself and colleagues, strongly pro-
testing against the third-degree meth
DDS of the committee and the reckless
ness of the attack on the state indus
tries.
In the evening the three League rep
resentatives presented their resigna-
tons from the audit investigating
committee. The house fought over this
all evening and finally ended up by
refusing to accept the rendered resig-
nations.
After the Leaguers had left the
committee, however, the remnants
thereof, declaring a majority present
and sufficient, decided to proceed with
the investigation, and Director Gener-
al Cathro was again called to the
stand.
Francis Murphy, of Minot, refusing
the offer of the industrial commits
sion to go to the Bank and examine
and inspect and copy any records de-
sired, arbitrarily ruled that Mr.. Cath
70 had refused to testify and had his
committee cite him before the house
of Representatives for contempt of
the committee and house.
Mr.. Cathro having been cited for an
offense that many with reason, insist
ed was impossible for any man to
commit, MI. Murphy called Mr.. Jo-
hanson of the Bank and one of Bish-
op, Brissman's experts to the stand
and questioned them awhile, after
which the committee adjourned for the
day, but not until the League leaders
had compelled the I. V. A. bosses to
accept full responsibility for their con-
fidence-wrecking campaign.
