lists and French Represent
ed as of One View
NO ONE is GAINING
French Manufacturers Have
Suffered Through Impair
ment of Shipments

London, Mar. 1O-Although offer
ing no very definite evidence to sup
port their statement some of the
British correspondents in the Ruhr
assert there is tendency toward
peace and both sides would welcome
a settlement, ending the strain OF
the last few weeks.
Both the workers and the indus
trialists on the German side are
tired of the struggle, the cores
pondents say, the former seeing no
hope of winning while at the same
time their sufferings are augmented
daily.
The industrialists. with the ex-
ception of one or two Of the most
influential, are feeling increasingly
the pinch in lost trade and are
fearing for the future.
The French on their part are rep
resented as suffering scarcely less.
They have not got what they went
into the Ruhr to obtain, and French
indu stries are being seriously af-
fected by the curtailment of the
coal supply.
The suggestion in these despatch
es is that it will be impossible for
present conditions to continue much
longer.
With regard to the customs bar
rier around the Rhineland it is as
serted that other trade interests be-
sides those of Great Britain are
restricted.

CLEAR WAY FOR
BIG PACKERS
MERGER PLAN


Chicago, Mar l0.-Proposing 10
demur to complaint of illegal COM
binaton filed by Secretary of Agri-
culture Wallace, Armour and Com
pany and Morris and Company, two
or the five leading meat packing
concerns, have virtually consum-
mated the proposed packing merger
which remains only its formal state
ment to make it legal.
The statement, announcements
here asserted, probably would be
issued Tuesday or Wednesday.
The one stumbling block that re-
mained to be removed, that of Ar
mour and company's stock values,
passed successfully yesterday.
Adjudicators of the stock values,
James B. Forgan of the First Ma
tional Bank of Chicago and Albert
Wiggan, New York banker, arrived
at an, agreement on the valuations
after q conference with Nelson Nor
ris, head ofi the Morris and com
pany, and other officials of the con-
Germ at Ocean Park, Fla.
No announcement was forthcom
inc from Mr.. Forgan as to the value
placed on Armour and company's
certificates that are to be exchanged
for Morris and company's stock.
The. merger OF the two concerns
represents a combination of capital
of upwards of 500,000,000.
Attorney General Daugherty re-
Gently found no basis against the
merger. But the plan for the merger
was carried on and then Secretary
Wallace filed this complaint of H.
legal combination. The packers have
denied the allegation and proposed
to prove tneir contention when the
case is called for hearing. 1t was
said here that the merger probably
would be officially announced before
the hearing starts.

GIVES HIS REASONS

The action Of Governor Nestos N

by President V. l.. Mangun of that
institution.
President Mangun, saying he has
worked hard for the institution and
that it represents his meat and

for the good of the state that the

The institution, contrary to state

not fulfill local needs nor command
solid support from Bottineau coun-
ty, the institution president says.

this school had been somewhat of an

sired me to come here and see what

The work here has been held IN
high respect in this part of the state
for several years and yet we do not
command the enrolment even Of this
county. They will not come up the

Wilton City, nor even from Omemee.
We can draw students from the in

north on this branch of the Great
Northern But the students from
Lansford in this county do not come
here. 1t cannot be said therefore
then that this institution is even an

Lahr Motor Sales Company
Takes New Step in Car
Insurance

You can now buy motor car
and know what it will cost you per
per year to operate it. The Lair
Motor Sales Company, WHY'S
Overland distributors, brought out
this hitherto unheard of guarantee
this week, and in so doing. have
shown their extreme confidence in
the WHY'S Overland car.
"Never before has the public had
an opportunity to avail themselves
of such an iron clad service pol
icy" said Mr.. Lahr today. 1--WE
dare to sell our Overland with this
guarantee only because we have
been keeping records Of Overland
cars in the hands of owners during
the past eighteen months and know
what the Overland will do.
1.-The only string to our upkeep
insurance policy is that the owner
must deliver his car to us once
every thirty days so that we may
give it a careful inspection, make
all necessary adjustments, and see
that it is properly fabricated. This
monthly inspection and adjustment
costs the owner nothing in addition
to his insurance cost of 15c per
day.
I'VE have been asked if our 15c
day insurance covered grinding
valves, etc. 1t is difficult for the
public to realize that they can own
an automobile that will cost them
only 15c a day to operate. Our
service insurance policy includes
every bit of mechanical work OH
the car. as well as new parts
necessary. with the exception of
tires, battery, and speedometer,
which are guaranteed by their re-
spective manufacturers, and also
with the exception of damage from
wrecks.
I'VE furnish a service insurance
policy with each. car bought on
this plan and it NEAR just what 1t
says. OF course, this plan is op-
tional with the purchaser"
