ed to the boys. They enjoy bathing
in the river which flows near by and
the woods offer fine outdoor activities.
The boys are in receptive mood for
a boat which may be presented to
them. A flagstaff is to be erected on
the building and a flag presented by
Mrs. E. Cotton will be displayed
thereon.
During the I. w. w. activities in
Minot some years ago the cabin
housed the I. w. WIS where secret
councils were held. It is said that
later bands of high jackers made this
their rendezvous and planned their
raids. At one time, it was said to
have been haunted.

1Minot ought to hold flower show

IMinot ought to hold flower show
ut AN early date. Never have the
beautiful. Judge Lewis wit with his 81
varieties" could hold whole show
by himself, but we feel that he would
not be selfish and would undoubtedly
let some of the smaller fry in on the
exhibition. The growing Of flowers
and the beautifying of lawns in our
scity ought to be encouraged. It is
sad to note that only too frequently,
"a lot is permitted to grow up to weeds
next door to some well kept lawn.

progresses. To show beautiful
lawn, requires a little effort, but the
results are worth it. The man who

Initiative petitions for new North
Dakota grain grading act are being
Gircnlated among the voters. These
petitions provide for an act to take
the place of the one enacted by the
legislature in 1919 and which has
been declared unconstitutional by the
United States supreme court. The
slew law which will become law if
approved by a ma jority of the voters
who go to the polls in November, is
aimed to accomplish the purposes
sought in the old law. In drawing
the new bill all the features objected
20 By the United States supreme court
IN the old law are eliminated. The
new bill provides that the United
State grain grades are to be the
standard for the state and that all
rules and regulations promulgated
by the United States secretary of ag-
Eiculture shall apply at all times in
the North Dakota grain grading de-
nartment. The administration of the
new law is vested in a state super
visor of grades, weights and meas
nlres who shall be appointed by the
state railroad warehouse commission
for term of four years. His salary
is fixed at $4,000 per annum. This
official shall have his office at the
North Dakota Agricultural College
and the bill provides that it shall be
4he duty Of all the departments at
she college, especially the experiment
tai mill, to cooperate with and aid
ahe supervisor in the enforcement Of
She szw- The supervisor is vested
with power to prescribe the margin
of profits, enforce fair grading and
correct weights and compel payment
of a fair market price for dockage
in the grain sold. Under the act all
public warehouses must be licensed
sas well as the grain buyer. The sup
errisAr has full power to revoke the
license of any house or buyer violat-
ing the law. At least 10000 sigma
lures are required to get this bill on
the ballot for the fall election, and it

A. GREAT SHIPBUILDING JOB-By Frederic j. Haskin

streets, sewers, water, gas, theaters moving
pictures, hospitals and the like
~ All in all, it was big job the shipping
board had on it's hands. 1t was an under
taking that fairly staggers the imaginationS
and that it was accomplished is a monument
to American business enterprise and genius.
Many Ships Now Idle
OF the great fleet that might now be
carrying the American flag into every port
of every sea more than 900 vessels are to-
day laid up-as idle as Coleridge's painted
ship upon a painted ocean," This is due to
some extent to the worldwide depression in
the shipping business, but more largely to
the fact that the American operator is at a
serious disadvantage with his foreign COM
petitors in the matter of operating expenses.
1t costs great deal more to sail a vessel
under United States registry, in compliance
with our laws as to crews, ETC., thai it does
under that of any other country, and I'M
less something is done about It our idle ships
bid fair to remain out of commission.
This brings up the problem of what is to
be done to preserve the American merchant
marine. Albert D. Lasker, chairman of the
shipping board, insists that nothing but gov
eminent aid/offers solution Of the problem.
He says: "The proposed ship susidy bill,
which is now being discussed before the joint
congressional committee, provides adequate
means, subject to such amendments as are
advisable and practical, for the restoration
of American marintime prestige.
until the citizen who resides inland CO.
operates with his brother on the various
coasts of the country and truly feels that
he will share directly or indirectly in the
prosperity that is to follow the upbuilding of
our import and export trade, all efforts to put
our idle fleet in operation will be futile. This
is matter for the entire nation to support,
not only from a spirit of patriotism and Of
pride, but for the even greater purpose OF
economic and national preservation.
