IMPORTANT
DECISIONS
BY CABINET
President and Advisors In
Session Announce L. S.
Policy in War
TO FIGHT STRIKERS
Booze on Ships Beyond the
Three-Mile Limit Is
Safe from Raid

WASHINGTON, Sept. 26-Vitally
important decisions of American gov
ernmental policy were evolved at to-
days meeting of President Harding
and his cabinet at the White House.
These included.
/. Decision by the entire cabinet
to caution prohibition enforcement
agencies against seizure or search Of
ships suspected of carrying contraband
liquor, if they are beyond the three
mile limit. This action was taken, it
was officially announced, to prevent an
international clash although the United
States has authority of law for such
search and seizure.
2. A decision, announced following
the cabinet meeting by Secretary Of
State Hughes, to approve the allied
governments demand that the Dardan-
elles and the Sea of Marmora be kept
free for commerce and that racial and
religious minorities in the Near East
be protected.
3. Decision to fight railroad shopmen
clear through the United States Su-
preme Court if'they continue their court
battle against the Daugherty injunction
issued by Judge Wilkerson in Chicago.
Attorney General Daugherty announced
this decision.
The cabinet devoted the major por-
tion of its session to a discussion of the
prohibition enforcement question, it
was stated as that is the moment the
most fraught with possibilities of com
plications for this government because
of British objections to search and
seizure of British vessels
Secretary Hughes left the cabinet
meeting early and a short time later
issued his announcement of American
policy on the Near East-the first an
nouncement from any official source Of
this government S position.
The American government is graft
fled to observe that the proposal of the
three governments seeks to insure effec-
lively ''the liberty of the Dardanelles,
the Sea of Marmora and the Bosphorus,
as well as protection of religious and
racial minorities,'' Hughes stated.
The points of the proposal are clearly
in accord with American sentiment.
"This government also trusts that
suitable arrangements may be agreed
upon in the interests of peace, to pre-
serve the freedom of the straits pending
the conference to conclude u final
treaty of peace between Turkey, Greece
and the allies'
Secretary Hughes declined to com.
ment on the territorial questions involv-
ed in the allied proposal to restore
Thrace and Constantinople to Turkey.

ULT|MATUM
SERVED ON
TURK CHIEF
Allies Give kemal 48 Hours
To Move Out of Neutral
Zone or Battle
BRITISH ADVANCING
War Chief of England Told
To See That Turks
Obey Orders

LONDON, Sept. 26.-The allied adj
mirals at Smyrna today served an ul-
timatum on Mustapha Kemal that the
Turkish forces must be withdrawn
from the neutral zone of the straits, it
was officially announced.
1t is understood that the leader of
the Turkish nationaiists has 4S hours
to order the retreat of machine gunners
and cavalrymen VINO have invaded the
zone and taken up position at Eren-
koi, 10 miles south of the British
stronghold at Chanak on the Dardanel-
les.
In case the withdrawal is not com
piete within 4S hours, it is understood
the British will move on the Kemalsts.
The invasion of the Turks, which
threatens to upset the allied peace plans
in the Near East, is the second by
Kemalists.
1t was understood that Sir Charles
Harrington, British commander in
chief in the Chanak area, has been
notified of the allied ultimatum and
has been ordered to act in ease the
terms of the demand are not carried
out.
1t was reported here that the Kemal-
lists have at least $500 picked troops
at Erenkeui and that reinforcements
are on the way.
Kemal is now at Smyrna, having
recently moved his headquarters from
Ismid before the British lines that are
protecting Constantinople. 1t was pre-
sumed that the ultimatum was served
on him in person.
Officials here were confident that
Kemal would order the withdrawal,
pointing out that it is likely that Ke
NAL is ignorant of the invasion, or, in
any event, the march was ordered by
some minor official-before the allied
note was received.
The allied not, which was despatched
to kemal invited him to attend Near
East peace conference at which the
French, Italian and British govern
ments promised to support his claims to
Constantinople and Thrace as far as
the Martha river. The allied govern
ments, however, made the express stipu-
lation that Kemal was not to invade
the neutral zone, which, according to
the terms of the note, was to be con-
fided into keeping of the League of
Nations

BIG INCREASE
1o,4ee Cars Of Potatoes
Shipped From State in
the Last Year.

The unusual increase in potato rais-
ing in North Dakota last year is'illus-
trated in figures received here from
the U. s. Department of Agriculture
by j. E. Griffin. Great Northern di-
vision freight agent. The figures show
that 1O.466 carloads of potatoes were
shipped out of the state during the
last year up to June 3, compared to
1910 in the preceding year.
This increase excels in percentage
that of any state in the northwest. the
next largest increase being that of
Minnesota with 6,431. However, the
percentage of increase is much small
er in Minnesota than North Dakota.
The number of carloads shipped, out
from the Gopher State last year to-
tails 29,471, compared to 23,040 the
year before.
Increases in other states Of the
northwest are: South Dakota, from
1924 to 3,345; Montana, from 924
to 1.741. Wisconsin shipments took
slump, dropping from 1898 to
10,679. .,.
Detailed figures on the carlot ship
ments over the United States and in

HEAVY DEMAND
F0RHARVESTERS
Rye Crop Brings an Early
Call For Help-Many
Needed in West.

There will be an early and heavy
demand for harvest labor in the state
this year due to the large rye crop
which is ripening evenly over the en-
tire state, according to word received
here today from United States en-
ployments officials and H. S. Fuller,
secretary of the Farm Bureau Fed
Grafton at Fargo.
Between 5000 and 1000 men will
be needed in the northwestern part
of the state alone between the 5th
and goth Of July, according to state
ment by Clyde Nelson, in charge of
the Minot office of the United States
employment service.
Even now it is becoming difficult
to fill all orders for men, Mr.. Nelson
says in his report, adding that he can
place all good men, who apply at
$35 to $50 per month and board until
freezing weather comes.
The situation Is different in Grand
Forks. So far there has been no one
in charge Of the United States labor
office here, and the Farm Bureau has
been looking after the work. There
has been fair demand for farm
hands, and the bureau has, had little
difficulty .in meeting the demand. 1t
is expected that with the rush for
harvest help in the valley, the United
State employment office will send a
man to this city.
