Nine disabled veterans who have
been pursuing courses at the UNI
versity o. North Dakota, under the
direction Of the United States Vet
Grams Bureau, completed their cours-
es and received their degrees on
June 10th. Three graduated from the
College of Education, two from the
College Of Law, three from the Col
lego of Engineering, and one from
the School of Commerce.
The Scholastic record of these Vet
Grams Bureau trainnees Is note
worthy, in that many Of them had
heen out of schools for years, and
also lacked some of the usual en-
trance requirements. They had to
do the regular work and also make
up their deficiencies although all OF
them were laboring under the handl
cap of physical disabilities incurred
in the War. Having to overcome all
these. obstacles S,Akes their achieve

Valley City, June 2S-Any resident

see the credit of the State and its
citizens restored, and wants to see
more residents in the State with the
subsequent reduction in the burden
of taxation will be more than will
ing to contribute one dollar per
year to bring about this condition.
That, in brief, is the substance
of the report of the finance COM
mittee of the Greater North Dakota
Association which was presented
and adopted at the executive board
meeting of the Association at Val
ley City on Thursday, June 10th.
G. S. Newberry, Darlington, Wes-

Chaffee, Armenia, who constitute the
finance committee of the newly or
ganized Booster" organization,
after giving due consideration ia
conditions in the state, have recon-
mended the raising of fund OF
$780, 900 within the State to be used
in "Telling the Truth About North
Dakota" in an extensive advertising
and publicity campaign both within

The officers and sponsors of the
Greater North Dakota Association
feel that a campaign to "Tell the
Truth About North Dakota" will
eliminate the bad advertising which
we have received, will counterac'
unfavorable and detrimental publ

wonderful resources and great op
