JUDGES ATTITUDE DOUBTFUL
House at Washington Passes Mine
5loc's Rider to Appropriation
Bill-To Call for Audit Of
Coal Operators Books.

Indianapolis, April 11.--After a two
hour conference with Federal Judge
Anderson Attorney General Daugher-
ty admitted that his chief business
here is to seek dismissal Of the anti
trust Indictment against the United
Mine Workers of America. He added,
however, that he was not "sure this
is advisable or practicable" at this
time.
Judge Andersons attitude toward
diHmisslng the indictments Is not
known, but his past conduct was re-
garded as forecasting opposition to
any such action.
Since the cases have been pending,
Judge Anderson once declared In court
that former Attorney General A.
Mitchell Palmer had tried to "hum-
string" the prosecution by directing
the omission of certain evidence, AT
that time the court declared that the
over action might be assumed by the
Department of Justice.

"Hundreds of our North Dakota

Should confine myself simply to
the men who were decorated it would
