Washington, Jan. l4-Intcntion OF
FoStmastor General Hays to retire
from the cabinet in the near future
TO become the directing head of an as
soclation of motion picture producers
ana distributors, was announced today
at the white House at the conclusion
OF conference between President
harding and the postmaster general.
president Harding, in statement,
declared he could not "well interpose
any objection to Mr.. Hays retiring
from the cabinet to take up a work so
important" while Mr.. Hays, stating he
had decided to accept the offer Of the
motion picture interests, made it clear
that as yet no contract had been OK
ecuted. The postmaster general, how
ever, expressed confidence that a sat
isfactory contract could be agreed
upon.
Representatives of motion picture
producers and distributors have been
he6Olidtil&, IOr CnG services or the
postmaster general for some time and
are understood to have outlined to MI.
Hays what they wish him founder
take. Within few days he expects to
confer again with them, probably in
New York, and unless something un-
foreseen develops, it is expected that
contract will be signed at tho meeting.
The date of his retirement from the
cabinet, AIr. Hays said, would depend
largely on the wishes OF his prospec-
tive employers. He declared, how
ever, he would not give up his gov
crnment duties until the president has
had time to select his successor. 1t
was said at the White House that moth
ing would be done toward selection OF
a new postmaster general until MI
Hays formally tenders his rcsigna
tion

F. and A Masons had their annual
thanksgiving services Sunday at Mt
Olive Baptist church and the Rev.
Youngblood preached the sermon. His
discourse was filled with sound logic
and was delivered in masterful way.
The Eastern Star sisters formed the
choir and sang beautifully. After the
sermon. the Hon. VIM. P. Crump,
Grand Master of Masons for Arizona
Jurisdiction, was introduced and de-
livered the st. Johns Day address to
the Masons. In his usual way, Mr..
Crump swayed the audience at will
with his profound logic and matchless
eloquence. Mr. Crump spoke at
length and held the audience at rapt
attention throughout his discourse. 1t
is the consensus of opinion that Mr..

livered in Prescott on an occasion of
this kind.

Various relief projects of the Junior
American Red Cross in European
countries resulted in helping 237, ,0Oc
destitute children during theslast fs-
cal year, according to the annual re-
port Of the American Rec Cross for
that period. The growth of the actlvi-
ties of the Juniors abroad is mani
tested by comparison which shows
this figure is 100000 larger than that
of the previous fiscal year.
The National Children's Fund raised
by school children, members of the
Junior American Red Cross, was
drawn upon for $420,557 for these prof.
ects. Receipts for the National Chill

WHITE SOW STOLEN
Animal Belonging to George sehaub
Killed ard Carried Away

We don't know at just what time Of
the year the hunting season on Ches-
ter White hogs opens, but some anna
teur nimrod rushed. things little
last Friday night.
Saturday morning when George
Schaub went out to feed the hogs hs
noticed that one Of his thoroughbred
Chester White sows was missing. He
thought she might be down the pas
ture a ways and did not take the
trouble to investigate for a little
while. A thorough search later on
failed to reveal the whereabouts Of
the sow, although Mr.. Schaub found
where she had dropped after having
been shot, and trail Of blood led to
the fence and out into the road, where
it ended, proving that the animal had
been loaded into, some sort Of convey
ance and carried away. ~
Quite naturally, Mr.. Schaub's ire
is aroused as result Of the incident
and he offers reward Of 500 to the
person who will furnish evidence lead
ing to the arrest and conviction Of the
offender.

Threshers, Meeting

Over hundred threshers and farm
ers from the western part Of Dickey
county met in the court room Satur-
day evening to get together on the
prices to be paid for threshing and
labor.
Ed Pehl, acting as chairman, made
few preliminary remarks and then
opened the meeting for general dis
cussion.
The recommendation made at this
meeting, while not strictly binding,
are the sentiment Of the majority Of
the threshers and farmers, and are
good standard to adhere to.
It was the consensus of opinion that
threshing should be completed in az
short time as possible and at the
least expense to all concerned.
Questionnaires were distributed and
filled out. Following are the averages
as turned in:
Threshing by the hour, 5000; by
the bushel, wheat, 12c; rye, 12c; oats,
&c; barley, SIC; fax, 19c.
Wages: Pitcher, per hour, 37c;

ND. RESIDENTS
TO USE LIGNl'TE
Prospects of Shortage this Winter
Will Force Consumers to Burn
Fuel Mined in State
GOVERNOR SOUNDS WARNING
Meeting of Dealers and Commercial
Club Men on Aug. %

The recent organization of the
North Dakota Lignit Coal Operators
association brings to the public's at
tention the fact that North Dakota
will depend upon Ignite to keep the
homes warm this winter.
The fact is that outside coal will
come into North Dakota in such small
quantities as to be practically negli-
gible. The reason is that there will
be so little produced before cold
weather sets in about Nov. 1 that no.
body will have enough. On July 1
last the total tonnage Of coal on the
Duluth and Superior docks was 4 per
cent of the normal quantity for that
period. In other words, out Of every
100 tons that should have been ready
for northwest distribution, but a were
on hand, and they were already con-
tracted for.
The best figures obtainable show
that the average amount Of bitumin-
Gus coal brought into North Dakota
annually is 100000 tons. The total
amount Of Ignite coal mined in North
Dakota annually is about 5000 tons.
This is for the most. part consumed
within the state. Consequently the
total tonnage Of all coal consumed by
the state is about 1900, 900 tons. This
year 100000 tons Of that are wiped
out by the shortage. A simple sum
in arithmetic will prove that the re-
mainder is 100000 tons, and upon it
the people and industries Of North
Dakota will have to stake their coal
supply this winter. These figures are
in the hands Of Governor Nestos and
his state fuel administration. They
are using every effort to obtain from
the United States fuel administration
guarantees Of some outside coal. Un-
doubtedly the government will do it's
utmost to help out North Dakota, but
what with the car shortage and the
general fuel demand confronting them,
it is feared in some quarters that
North Dakota will be told to turn to
her own resources and use her own
Ignite. To increase production Of
Ignite will be the governors first
step, and he is already going about it.
The above figures are sent out by
the governors Office accompanied by
a letter signed by Mr.. .Nestos him
self, urging general cooperation lin
educating the public TO use Ignite, tha
North Dakota fuel. Without doubt
many people in. our state are going to
