(By United Press)

Washington, March 2.-American
Legion leaders here are satisfied with
the house bonus subcommittee pro-
posal to drop the cash bonus, pro-
vided workable insurance certifi7
cate plan with the provision of bor-
rowing money on the certificate is
substituted, they stated to the Unit
ed Press today, adding that while
they may make a protest to keep the
records straight, they do not now
plan any campaign against the COM
mittee's methods.
The house is aiming now on bill
for unemployed men, actually re-
quiring cash, to get loan from the
bank at once up to so per cent of the
amount allotted to soldier for his
term of service on oollar-a day
basis for interest. The average sol
der served 329 days and he could
take his certificate to bank and get
a loan of $164.5O. If he defaulted
payment, the bank then would turn
to the treasury and get it's advance
with interest.
The Legion leaders contend that
the insurance certificates would real
ly mean more to the average man
than the cash he might squander.

Should Miss Calihan win the nomi-

FORECAST LEGISLATION
ON WATERWAY PROJECT
(By United Pyess)

Washingtons March 2.-Congress
will enact legislation necessary to
create the St; Lawrence canalization
project, Henry j. Allen of Kansas
believes.
Sentiment is most universally in
favor Of the project" he told the
United Press just before leaving
Washington.
Allen said he was confident the
10,0O0,O00 people of the state of
New York are not in sympathy with
the stand to the project taken by the
government and business interests.
"When the matter comes to a
showdown, the people of New York
will side with us of the West" he
said. 81 believe the majority of con-
gressmen believe the project will
confer great blessings on the coun-
try.
"The tremendous overland haul
has always been the tragedy of
transportation of the West" Allen
said. Creation of the St. Lawrence
project will place the west 1900
miles nearer to the sea and enable it
to compete successfully with Euro
pean grain growers.

LITTLE FALLS OUTFIT
PLAYS HERE TOMORROW
High School Girls to Play
Basley in Preliminary
to District Game

Two interesting games of basket
ball are offered local fans Friday
night when the Bemidji high school
squad meets the Little Falls high
school team. leader Of the third attn
letic district championship contest,
and the high school girls team meets
the Bagley high school girls at the
new armory. The girls game will be
called at 1880 and, although pre-
liminary to the main event, this game
will be we'll worth SEEING.
Last Saturday night the Bagley
girls defeated Bemidji on the small
Bagley floor where neither team could
show all it's speed: On the large floor
here it is expected that q, much fast
er game will be staged. ,Bagley has
one Of the strongest girls teams IN
this section of the state and has al
ways had the distinction of possessing
such team. Nearly all of the play
ers on that team are playing their
second or third year at bas shtball and
experience is big factor. Bemidji
has made a good showing considering
that the team is practically new this
year. Although the score at Bagley
much closer game is looked for here
tomorrow night.
Little Falls is leading the district
race and bids fair to keep that title
and thereby go to the state tourna.
ment at Northfield. The outcome Of
the first meeting this year between
Bemidji and Little Falls indicates
that an interesting game should be
the result of this encounter on 'he
Bemidji floor, provided that the locals
put up their best brand Of basketball:
This is the last game of the locals
schedule this season and it is expected
that they will make a fine showing
against the district leaders. A pe:v-
ious meeting at Little Fails resulted
in a g to Is victory for the Morri,-

BRITISH CONSERVATIVES
IN SECRET CONFERENCE
(By United Press)

London, March 2.-(By Ed. L.
Keen)-Conservative party leaders
met here today in secret session, on
which the fate of Premier Lloyd
George and his coalition government
depends. The session followed a con-
ference between Austin Chamber
lain, official leader of the party, and
Sir George Younger, chairman of the
Unionist party organization, known
as the man behind the throne.
The premierTs adherents were op-
timistic. The Younger faction, they
said, is beginning to realize that it's
the premier's name rather than the
conservative majority which is the
real backbone of the coalition gov
ernment.
Lloyd Georges letter to Chamber
lain has excited the trouble. The
prime minister, according to leaders
of the party, has asked quasi vote
of confidence.

ed in every department. The major

gether they form one of the best col
Iege teams in the state.
St. Cloud started the scoring and
piled up five points before BemidJi
scored at ali. The first half resulted
in count Of 9 to 10, after Bemidji
had made short squirt in which three
field baskets were Gagged. In the Sec
ond period, Bemidji scored only two
points on free throws, while St.
Cloud continued to score at ease.
For The visitors, Swenson, right
guard, was easily the star. He was
also the main point-getter, scoring
seven field goals and five out of eight
free throws, Ernst, right forward,
came second in scoring with four
| field goals. Freed, center, scored
three field goals; Weisman, left for
ward, scored one; and Joyrer, sub
l;stitute left forward, completed the
scoring with two field baskets. Hicks
I at left guard completed the lineup.

ing for Bemidji with one field goal
and two out of seven free throws.

with both the approval Of the play
ers and the audience. A fast, clean
game was the result Of this meeting.
A three-game series between the
teachers and the high school squad
will be played about the middle Of
this month to decide the city champ

modern steel gunboat of 1900 tons,
has been assigned to this district for
the training of naval reservists. This
vessel is now at the navy yard, Ports
mouth, N, H., undergoing repairs and
alterations preparatory to being
transferred to Duluth for this duty.
A crew will be selected from this DIS
trict to 60 to Portsmouth and bring

Holders of Notes to Be Paid
Out of First Money Which
Association Collects
WEDNESDAYS PROGRAM
INCLUDES ABLE TALKS
Tourist Trade, Dairy Products
and County Division Are
Topics of Interest

The news that holders of armory
notes will be paid out of the first
moneys collected on the Civic &
Commerce association 1922 budget
will be joyfully received by such
note holders. In fact, the money is
now ready to be paid over and note
holders are requested to see A. P.
White at the Northern National
bank, where final settlement will be
made.
The amount subscribed for the
1922 budget by the twenty men who
hold notes will be applied upon pay
ment of these notes and to those who
have paid in money to that budget,
this amount will be refunded.
The association also decided to pay
at once the $500 due the Ten Thou
sand Lakes association. The balance
of the moneys paid in and to be paid
in and to be paid into the budget will
be pro-rated among the various bud
get funds.
The program provided association
members at the noon luncheon We'd
nesday included spirited talks from
c. W. Jewett, who reported on the
state automobile convention, and L.
Jenson Of Clearbrook, who spoke on
dairy products in Minnesota.
Mr.. Jewett declared that it was up
to Bemidji to harvest good tourist
crop this summer and stated that
other cities in the state were out af
ter this business in earnest.
Eve can do much to make tour
lists welcome in Bemidji,' said Mr..
Jewett. when we see a tourist car
on our streets it is up to the business
and professional men and citizens in
general to approach that car and ask
its occupants if there is anything we
can do for them. Perhaps they want
some direction or information, which
we, who are acquainted, can easily
give them.
Furthermore, we. should have a
central information bureau where
visitors can go to get the informa-
tion desired. Such hospitality on the
part of our citizens will bring hun
dreds of others to Bemidji. 1t will
mean that these tourists will plan to
stop here, instead of just merely
passing through the city. What it
means in dollars and cents can hard
ly be estimated"
Mr.. Jensen advised that he was
already inoculated with the fraternal
spirit of Bemidji, but stated that in
addition to the crops to be harvested
as mentioned by Mr.. Jewett, namely
the farm crop, the lumber crop and
the tourist crop, there was another
very important crop in the dairy
business.
1T is an all-the-year-around CROP"
said Mr.. Jenson, land where farm
ers are actually engaged in this bust
ness they do not know what hard
times are. Beltrami county has made
good start along this line and l
predict bright future for it in the
dairy business"
Charles Carter reported on the
wood rate situation and advised that
the matter was up to the railroads.
He. stated that the Great Northern
and 500 lines had reported that they
could not cut the rate and that the
M. & l. and Northern Pacific had not
yet reported.
