BIRcHMONT SETS NEW RECORD .:

BIRCHMONT SETS NEW RECORD =
Birchmont Beach Hotel, under the able
management of Earl Byers, sets new rec
ord for volume of business done as we'll as
for net profits, during 1922.
Although the season is practically closed
the hotel management has agreed to keep
open house until after the convention of
the State Federation of Women's Clubs,
which will be held in this city September
10, IA and Is.
The overhead expense is far beyond
what the business warrants for the next
two weeks, and it is strongly urged by the
business men Of the city that Bemidji sup
port the hotel in the meantime.
It is an ideal place for social entertain.
ments and it is very probable that several
large house parties will be given there by
society leaders before the convention. The
hotel is in position to render the best kind
of service and lis prepared to take care OF
any social occasions that may arise. Those
who are planning to entertain are urged to
get in touch with Mr.. Byers at once, so
that there will be no conflicting dates.
A full crew is being retained, and din
ners by Bemidji families will become quite
the popular thing during the next ten days.
Those who are patronizing the golf links
will find 1T most convenient to take meals
at Birchmont, where service is second to
none in the country. =
The hotel belongs to the citizens of Be-
midi, and these stockholders will realize
more than will anyone else that if the full
crew is to be kept intact, it will be neces-
sary to direct business there. ! They are
planning, many of them, to take their
meals at Birchmont daily until the conven-
ton and until the hotel closes for the seas
son. Dinner parties will be quite the popu-
lar thing, and large number of these can
be accommodated every evening, be. they
large or small. ~.

, DIVERSIFIED FARMING WEEK.
"a G62p eor Preus; by proclamat ton, has
desienktsd September Is to October as
diversified Farming Week" This is just
. before the National Dairy Exposition at
st, Paul. and will direct attention to the
practice of the best farming methods, so
that regardless of prices, the farmer who
follows the diversified plan will suffer the
least.
In his proclamation, Governor Preus
says:
- I'm periods of low prices, just as in sea-
sons of poor yields, farmers who practice
diversified farming to the highest degree,
suffer least.l The production of milk,
cream, butter, beef and pork, mutton and
wool, eggs and poultry, has relieved the
farmers in many sections Of our state from
the uncertainties of one-crop farming. It
has given our farmers steady income in
) place of one that Us seasonal. 1t has stop
ped the depletion of soil fertility which is
certain result of grain raising
Judging by the way the Democratic
press is jumping on the ''wool growers of
the senate" they must think that if a. man
is wool grower he thereby becomes dis
qualified for seat in legislative body.
But if wool grower is disqualified be-
cause of his occupation, why not also a
wheat grower, a cotton grower, a corn
grower, cattle grower or an orchardist?
The Democrats are driving all kinds of
producers away from their ranks.

 CHURCH FINDS

ATLANTIC CITY. N. J., Nov. H. The period of jazz which started at the close of the World War is grad ually coming to an end, according to Dr. Lewis s. Nudge of Philadelphia, state clerk of the Presbyterian gen eral assembly, who is here attending the sessions of the consolidation committee which was appointed by the last general assembly to com press 14 boards and agencies of the assembly into four departments.
 "The throwing aside of all re- straint brought about by the mingling of the sexes during the war days, said Doctor Murge. "is now becoming passe This is indicated by the passing of the short skirt and the return to popular favor of long hair. The college dances where jazz reigned supreme are also reflecting the changed spirit. The extreme styles, the indecent dancing and the pocket flask are very seldom seen now at these affairs"

LEAGUE OF NATIONS FINDING .. !. :. HANDICAP IN UNANIMITY RULE

GENEVA, Switzerland, Nov. IA Several influential delegates to the Third Assembly of the League of Nations are going home with the conviction that the rules of the next assembly ought 10 be changed ESQ as to make the proceedings more par liamentary, more like the debates in the American Congress, for instance, They hold that the unanimity rule, which thus far has applied to de- Alterations of committees as well as to those of the full assembly, is choking out interest and that, unless this rule is abolished, tho proceed ings will become duller and duller as the work of the assembly becomes more and more confined to routine questions The regulation can be abolished for committee work by the assembly itself. but an amendment to the covenant is necessary to do away with uranimity in decisions of the full assembly.
 .sThe committees, under the unani- unity rule" said one delegate, "are made to look like machines for the production of compromises, while the assembly proceedings run into an anti-climax in the closing week Of the session. because all important questions have been decided unani mously in committee. There is noth ing for the full session to do but ap prove. It can debate over again the points that were contested in con ,mittee. but under the unanimity rule it can change nolhIng. The nl

NARROWED WITH
 BOLSHEVIKI; BOY
 NOW IN SEATTLE
Seattle Times;

After being marOoned among the Bolsheviki of Siberia and witnessing their methods of rulc or ruin, Leon ard Martinsen, 13-yearold Seattle boy, reached Seattle last night from .Anadir, completing a 4,000-mile voy- age aboard the power schooner Ruby.
 Leonard went to Siberia last Au- gust from Seattle aboard the power schooner Olive with his father, H. H. dled out of his furs by the Bolshe- wiki and left destitute in Siberia. Ha turned the boy over to Capt. E. B. Hoffman, master of the Ruby, who brought him to Seattle
 Leonard told of a raid of Bolshe
 wiki in Anadr when tho stores were
 lcotod of provisions and supplies.
 '"The Bolsheviki asked for provi-
 sions and when the storckecpers would not give them, they went into the stores and helped themselves"
 said Leonard. Many slcdloads of provisions, stolen from the stores, were hauled away by tho Bolshcviki." AFrcStco on muTOcT NNdr0e Leonard said that l.. CroSbek, man. ager of the Hudson's Bay Company in Siberia, was instantly killed while celebrating the Fourth of July. He was touching off quart of powder
 when it exploded prematurely. As Alex Smith of Nome. a district man ager for the Hudson's Bay Company.
 was preparing for the burial serv ices he was arrested by the Bolshe- wiki on a charge of murder. The
 Bolsheviki insisted that Smith had killed Crnsbek.
 While Leonard was in Siberia na- i tive Indians made him complete
 suit of clothing from skins and furs, which he brought with him on the
 Ruby
 Activities of tho Bolshcviki have made trade conditions rather uncer- tain in Siberia, according to Captain l Hoffman There is an unsettled feel ing and traders and merchants are constantly in fear of raids. The Ruby was three weeks in the ice off the Siberian coast and encoun- tered a big storm off the Shumagin 1 Islands of Western Alaska which whipped part of her sails into shreds. l The vessel sailed from Seattle May
 24 and arrived in Anadir June IT.. 1 She left for Seattle via Alaska ports August 5.
 | Severe Weather Reported Caotain Hoffman reported the
 worst summer weather yet experi-
 anccd by natives along tho North Alaskan and Siberian coasts. It was old, rough and unpleasant through out the voyage and the sails of the Ruby were worn and battered when she arrived.
 At Sand Point in tho Shumagin ',nds tho Ruby met a party of New
 York business mon on hunting cx- petition They sailed north this summer on the power schooner Tuckahoe. Up to the timc the Ruby left they had been unable to do any hunting because of tho unfavorable weather that has prevailed in the North this summer
 On her voyage the Ruby made calls in Sand Point, Unala ska. Anadir, St. Michael, Bethel, Port Haidcn, .Akutan, Hardscratch, Pirate Covel and then returned to Sand Point, from whence she sailed for Seattle IT days ago.
 Tho vessel brought humber of sacks of reindeer lawn skins from
 Anfdir. The rest of her cargo was made up fo salt salmon loaded at Northern Alaska and island ports.

The Washington herald., 1922-05-07

the automobile industry Is directly
traceable to high taxes. Although
French manufacturer have an un-
usual advantage in their home mar
ket because of an import duty of
IS per cent they are still unable to
keep their factories reasonably
busy. The numerous and high taxes
make operation OF any type OF
motor vehicle exceedingly expensive
and many persons, whose occupa-
tion might make use of an automo-
bile prerequisite, have to forego its
time-saving advantages and per-
form their work in less efficient
manner.
The automobile situation in Eng
land Is similar to that of France.
Motor vehicles, despite their utility
value which was especially empha-
sized during strikes. are taxed. The
inequity of this assessment is be-
ing demonstrated by experiences of
automobile owners who are urging
a modification or a repeal.
A contrast from that of these three
countries is afforded in the taxation
policy OF Canada where the taxes
derived by the provinces are de-
voted to the maintenance of roads
and where the central government
imposes no discriminatory taxes
Canada's motor vehicle registration,
$4,000. Is nearly as large as the
mother country which has $4,000.
although the Dominion Is much
smaller than Great Britain in
wealth and population.
