FOLEY GIVEN
BIG WELCOME
IN z CITIES
North Dakota Poet Speaks at
Grand Forks to Large
Crowds, Also at Fargo
TELLS OF EARLY LIFE

James w. Foley was in Fargo yes
tcrday as a guest of the Kiwanians
at their regular meeting. Mr. Foley
stopped off there on his way from
Grand Forks where he spoke to a
crowd of approximately 1000 people,
who assembled in the city auditor
ium of that city as guest of the Bus
incss and Professional Women's
Club Every available space was fill
cd at the Auditorium. On Monday af-
ternoon Foley won his way to the
hearts of more than 1000 children
of that city when he read from his
poems to them at the Auditorium. He
wove the poems into his heart to
heart talk and council with them in
which he advised, "Give the best that
is in you to the world to make it
finer place in which to be, and give
an honest smile, and it will ALWAYS
be returned.'
In his talk on Monday evening to
the people of Grand Forks he refer
red to his early residence in the
state, when at the age of six years
he came to live on the banks of the
Missouri river and later moved to
the Bad Lands of North Dakota,
which he referred to as the Garden
of the Gods. Here it was that Foley
learned to know Theodore Roosevelt,
whose memory and friendship has al
ways been priced highly by the poet.
In the course Of his talk Monday
hn hnu at II
friends in the state:
81 learned from the men and
women who lived there that friend
ship and human kindness with hu-
men beings is the most valued pos
session thas men can acquire and no
where in the world is it possible to
learn the true worth Of men as it is
under the skies and sunshine Of this
great state" declared the poet when
he spoke to one of the most appreci-
ative audiences one would wish for,
Just to be friend to man and to
have him for your friends means
more than any one thing that one
can WISH" he said.
Idealists Worth While
'Thc really worth while man is
the idealist, who can dream and do
things that are worth while, and the
world needs just such men as James
J. Hill, who have vision and really
do things If more men and women
would try living with themselves
awhile they would be more likeable
and better companions for other peo-
pie to associate with. They would
be happy and make others around
them happy, he pointed out. Those
who are most happy are they who
render service to others"
Miss Minnie Nelson, state Super
intendent of Schools was present at
this meeting and told of the estab
fishing of an annual Foley day in
the state and introduced the guest
of honor.
On Monday afternoon, Foley was a
guest at the Ceramics department of
the State University in company with
President Kane and Miss Nelson.

PUBLICITY OF
TAX XRETURNS
is PROPOSED
To be Subject of Controversy
in u. S. Senate Consider
ing Revenue Bill
ROUGH ROAD is HEAD
Senate Reaches Points Of
Wide Difference in Con-
SideratiOn of Measure
AGREE TO CUT

Washington, April 30.-Secre-
tary Melons proposal FOR 25
percent reduction in the tax
earned income was agreed on to-
day by the Senate with modifi-
cations.
The maximum amount of in
come on which the reductions
could be applied was cut to $10.-
600 from the 100000 allowed by
the House. All incomes Of 5000
or less, however, would be con-
sdered earned for purposes of
reduction.
Washington, April 30.-A rougher
road lay ahead Of the tax reduction
bin today when the Senate went to
work on some of the controversial
amendments, with interest centering
on some of the provisions on estate
and gift taxes, publicity of returns
and the board of tax appeals.
With introduction of an amendment
proposing a substitute corporation
schedule, Senator Simmons, North
al oiiiius DSHOSIdl VI luc
finance committee, said the minority
would be ready to plunge into the
income tax fight in which the main
contest on the bill hinges.
Opening of this fight has been
postponed. since Monday because of
the intention of Democrats to couple
the corporation tax fight with that
over income rates.
The finance committee turned
down the House proposal to increase
the estate tax rate from maximum
of 25 percent to 40 percent and also
eliminated from the bill the House
provision for gift tax. Action of
the House in opening tax returns
to inspection by several congrcs
sional committees was broadened by
the finance committee to permit the
committee to make public any details
found in the returns and several
Senators have introduced amend
ments proposing complete publicity
of returns.

SOCIETIES
BLAMED FOR
DISORDERS

Manila. Aug. 23.-Approximately
200 secret and fraternal societies are
now in existence in the Philippines,
according to an official report by
the intelligence office of the Phil
ippine Constabulary, which asserts
that most Of the labor troubles in
Manila as we'll as in the provinces
are due to the activities of these
societies. The report also declares
that the agrarian troubles which
flare up at intervals are attributable
to these societies.
In Manila alone there are l34
secret societies and the majority of
these have been organized during
the last three years, according to
the constabulary report.
In Occidental Negroes, rich sugar
cane district, numerous cases of
lawlessness have been reported and
officials declare that rivalry be
tween two of the most powerful of
the secret societies has been at the
bottom Of the trouble.

Forty Couples
At Informal Dance

About forty couples attended the
informal dance given last night by
the Bismarck Country Club. Brown
eyed Susans banked the fireplace,
and were arranged in baskets around
the dancing room. At 1890 supper
was served at small tables in the din
ing room.
An unusual feature was the bal
loon dance; each lady was furnished
a balloon which she fastened to her
ankle, her partner endeavoring to
protect the balloon from being des-
troyed. A circle two-step was in
cluded in the special dances. Wag-
ner's orchestra furnished the music.
The committees in charge of the
dance were headed by Miss Katharyn

DIRECTOR OF
PAGEANT NOW
IS AT WORK
Miss Nellie Louise Jewel of
Thurston Management Is
At The Helm

Miss Nellie Louise Jewel, pageant
director for the Thurston Manage
ment of Chicago is in Mandan re-
hearsing the historic episodes and
dances of the pageant to be staged
for the Missouri slope Fair, Sept.
l. 2, and 3.
Miss Jewel is director of much
experience, having directed for. the
Thuiston Management for the past
several years productions staged in
Chicago, Macomb, H.; Amigo and
Menomonie, Wis; Ludington, Mich;
Spencer, Ia; Rochester, Mimi; Ar
kansas City, Kansas, and many other
cities with tremendous success.
Many Of these towns have already
arranged with the Thurstons for an
other pageant, resulting from the
great success and beauty of the pro-
ductions staged. Miss Jewel is very
enthusiastic over the unusual his
tory to be shown in the Mandan
pageant. The Indian scenes as
written by Major A. b. Welch, have
peculiar characteristics of deeply
interesting nature which could only
be known to profound student of
Indian lore, and of history in gen
eral, and which will insure some
episodes differing entirely from
those shown in the pageant staged
here two years ago. Some of the
scenes staged here before are to be
repeated by popular request.
Bismarck has chosen several Queen
candidates to participate in the con-
test for the honotf of becoming
