DURING PAST YEAR

During the fiscal year Of 1922
which ended September 1, the Grand
Forks 7. N. c. A. housed and cared
for $50 needy transients free Of
charge. The number is one Of the
largest ip the history Of the associa-
ton. according to Arthur Tweet. bust
ness secretary.
The association has always made
a practice Of helping in every way
possible fellows who come to the city
without, money or a place to stay"
said Mi. Tweet.
"a number OF those cared for dur
ing the past year have been members
Of the American Legion and other ex-
service men. In several cases the as
ISOLATION was able to supply necessary
clothing to the men who applied for
aid. :
Il am glad to say that in the great
majority Of instances those who were
helped showed their appreciation"

0'C0NN0R GOES
TO BISMARCK,
Senatorial Candidate Ex-
pected to Begin Campaign
Immediately.

J. F. T. O'Connor, Democratic cam
didate for United States senator. left
this noon for Bismarck, where he will
attend the meeting of the Democratic
state Central committee and the
joint campaign committee. If the
committee so decides, Mr.. ,O'Connor
VII! begin his election campaign inn
mediately. Prior to his departure to-
day, he said nc definite plans had
been formulated and no itinerary had
been mapped out, but his work prob
ably will be done at the joint COM
mlttee meeting tomorrow. Indica-
tons are, however, that Mr.. O'Con-
nor will begin his campaign in the
western part of the state.
The Republican and Democratic
state central committees hold their
organization meetings tomorrow UNI
der the law. With the Nonpartisan
league in control OF the Republican
committee, there is no doubt that the
regular Republicans will repeat their
action of two years g and refuse
to meet with the leaguers. Burleigh
F. Spalding of Fargo is chairman Of
the regular Republican committee
and Attorney General Sveinbjorn
Johnson is chairman Of the Demo-
cratic central committee.
Following. the organization meet
ings, the regular Republicans and the
Democratic committee probably will
hold a joint meeting to make plans
for the campaign. r.
While Mr.. O'Connor is campaign
ing in the western part of the state,
q vigorous campaign in his behAlf
will be conducted in Grand Forks
county. Local workers already are
formulating plans for the drive in
this city and county. Meetings will
be held in every school houSe in the
county, and there will, be a house-to-
house sign-up campaign in this city

HUDSON CAR
IS STOLEN
Car Owned by c. L. Linfoot
Taken From in Front of
Belmont School,.

A Hudson ~Speedster, owned by c..
L.. Linfoot, $40 Chestnut street, was
stolen from in front of the Belmont
school or Chestnut street about 10
o'clock Monday night. Officials have
found no trace Of the machine as
yet.
The a was driven by Miss Trenna
Linfoot, accompanied by Miss Gladys
Warner shortly before the theft. The
young ladies parked the car about
n block from the Linfoot home as
new pavement on Chestnut street
did not permit driving the car any
farther down the street.
AS the. girls reached the Linfoot
home, they heard meo shift gears
on a car in the neighborhoods Of
where the Linfoot car was parked.
Miss Linfoot Immediately ran back to
investigate and the car was gone.
Miss Linfoot reported that she had
seen two men sitting ON the school
steps at the time the machine was
parked. Mrs. Martin Hangar, living
in the same block reported that she
saw two young fellows get into, the
machine and drive off, and the sup
position Is that they are the same
parties.
The auto was q ] 1917 model with
a motor No. 37401 and bore a North
Dakota license No. 2a144., The car
carried two spare tires on the side.
1t had new cross tread cord Good
tires on the front wheels and
two Diamond tread cord Goodyear
tires on the rear wheels.
Anew Stromberg c~arborator had
recently been placed in the automo-
bile.
Troubles come singly, it
seems. When the theft was discov-
cred, Martin Rice, an employee of the
Linfoot Hardware store, went out on
a search in the firm truck. On North
Third street he locked tenders with
car Both machines were
considerably damaged.

GENOA. April 20.-Russia re-
fuses to recognize the debts CON
tracted by the czarist government

Kerensky government.
In their answer to the allied
demands. made public here today,
the ENJOYS of Soviet Russia as
serted they cannot meet the con-
ditions laid down for them.
Justify Refusal TO Pay.
Russia is willing. however. the an.
swer said, to recognize debts CON
tracted before the war. In order to
iIquidate these they plan TO float a
bond issue, subscribed to by the
man in the street"
The Russians reply to the Allies
was a lengthy document In which
the Soviet government sought to
justify it's refusal to recognize the
wartime debts.
Regarding restitution. the note
says the Soviet government win re.
store everything pos } BILE to former
owners, but that IL cannot hand
back property that already is in the
possession of Russian workers.
The note explains the Soviet gov
ernment repudiates the wartime
debts of the Czarist and Kerensky
governments because OF the allies
Intervention and the resultant ex-
penditures that the Soviet govern
ment was forced TO make.
The Russian note estimates the
total Russian debts. including pre-
war loans. wartime loans. and pri-
vate claims, at between eighteen and
twenty billion gold roubles.
The announcement had the effect
of another bombshell in the Allied
camp.
