NEW ORDER TO
SPEEDFREIGHT
CARS Is HIT
Grain Shipments Plan of
Regional Advisory Board
Is Complained of
MEANS PRICE LOSS?

Minneapolis, Sept. 17.-(By the A..
P.)-The new order affecting grain
shipments, originating in the North
west Regional Advisory Board Of the
American Railway Association, which
abolishes reconsignments or diver
sion of grain at sampling stations, is
protested in statement issued to-
day by the American Wheat Growers
Associated, Inc, farmers market
ing agency, with headquarters here.
The order was declared by the
joint terminal grain committee of
the board, which framed it, to be in
the interest of maintaining an ade-
quate supply of cars at shipping
points for the movement of this
years crop.
Under the old order of things,
shippers billed cars to the sampline
point where they were held until
further orders. From these places
they have been sent on to the chief
terminal markets. Minneapolis or
Duluth.
The reconsignment of cars was
carried out, it was explained. that in
order after grain was sampled, grain
could be sent on to terminals at
which the best price could be OBJ
tained. The new ruling makes it
necessary for cars to. be billed
through from point of shipmen: to
one of the two chief terminals.
"A loss Of several cents a bushel
on a large part Of the grain shipped
to market in Minnesota is to be suf
fered by grain growers and ship
pers in the Northwest, because of
the new ruling" declared William
J. Brown, president, American Wheat
Growers Association, in a statement
issued today.

Kemmerer, Wyoming, Sept. H.
Rescue parties penetrating the de-
bris-laden workings of the mine of
the Kemmerer Coal Company at Sub
let, near here, today, had recovered
the bodies Of 81 miners, victims of
yesterdays explosion.
Last estimates available from un-
official sources placed the number
of men still in the mine at 18, al
though some figures were higher.
Twelve men escaped alive last night.
The company which owns the mine
has given out very little informa-
tion for publication, explaining that
all Of it must be verified before it
is issued.
Resounding Roar
A resounding roar that reverberat-
ed throughout the little mining camp
nesting in the mountains, broke
through the sound of crashing thun-
der at 1l:45 o'clock yesterday and
brought to Sublet, its first great
mining disaster. As the sound of the
terrific explosion died out, residents
of the little community of 500 per-
sons, started an exodus from their
hpmes through a binding rain storm
y the mouth of Mine No. 5, a draft
mine, there to claim their dead.
Within an hour so many residents
of the camp had congregated around
the main portal of the tunnel that
it was with difficulty that workmen
and rescue crews we're able to make
their way to start the work of res
cue.
Highway Jammed
News of the disaster was sent to
kemmerer and the main winding lit.
tie mountain highway soon became
cOngested with automobiles and per-
sons on foot all on their way to the
scene Of the explosion. Rescue
crews from the mines in the adja-
cent territory, many of them owned
and operated by the Kemmerer Coal
company and others by the Union
Pacific Railroad company, we're
quickly formed and started on their
way to the mine.
: The rain continued to fall in vir-
tual torrents.

BOND LEVIES
FOR PROGRAM.
NEAR MILLION
State Taxpayers Must Provide
Money For Retirement
Of State Bonds
BILL GROWS RAPIDLY
Levies Must Be Made BY State
Board of Equalization
For Various Issues
BILL GROWS RAPIDLY

North Dakota's industrial program
interest bill, which must be met
largely by taxation, is growing rap
idly. Indications are that the state
board of equalization will be forced
to levy taxes of approximately ST.
100000 this year to meet interest
and principal upon Bank of North
Dakota, mill and elevator and real
estate bonds.
The amount to be levied for this
purpose, it is indicated, will ap-
proach half the entire amount OF
the general fund levied for running
the various departments of state
government. The levy will be made
by the state board Of equalization
in the near future.
For the first time since the in
dustrial program was launched, the
state faces the prospect Of having
to levy taxes to meet the principal
upon bonds which were issued for
it. The industrial program laws
provide that where profits from the
to establish sinking fund to meet
the bond principal payments, one
fifth of the total shall be levied on
each of five years before the bonds
become due.
One million dollars of the Bank
of North Dakota bonds will mature
in 1929, the amount being one-half
of the bonds issued to provide cap
ital stock for the bank. Since the
bank shows no profit, under the law
one-fifth of this should be levied,
beginning this fall. In addition to
the 100000 which would be levied
for the principal of the bonds, the
state board of equalization will be
called upon to levy 100000 to meet
the interest on the bonds for the
year. 5. ,s
No principal payment will be due
on the bonds issued for the con-
struction of the state-owned mill
and elevator at Grand Forks but
$5OO,OO0 of mill operating bonds ma
ture in 1928 and 1929, and since the
mill shows no profit, it is expected
the state board will find it neces-
sary, under the law, to levy 100000,
or one-fifth Of the total.
One years interest on the $3,O0O,-
900 of bonds issued for the construc-
ton Of the mill and elevator,
amounts to $l72,O00, and tax levy
will have to be made for this
amount. There will be necessary a
levy of $57,50O on the mill operating
bonds.
The amount of the tax levy to
meet interest on real estate bonds
due during the year is largely prob
lematical at this time, since there
will be some interest payments from
persons who borrowed money
through farm loans.
There will be some levy needed, it
appears. There will be no principal
payment levy requirement, since no
farm loan bonds mature in the
next five years.
Because all taxes are not levied, it
is the regular practice of the state
board to levy more than is actually
needed. The entire amount that may
be levied, including the levy to meet
interest on real estate bonds, is held
likely to be around a million dollars.
The levy for the state general fund
last year was $2,5l6,464.76.

Crawford said. ut probably would
take 100000 to $125,OOO to build
the proper sort of shrine.
The shrine, as proposed by Mr..
Crawford, would be somewhat the
same as the Lincoln shrine at Har-
din, Kentucky, where the famous
Lincoln log cabin stood.
Among the letters received by Mr..
Crawford is one from Paul v. Bum,
general secretary of the St. Louis
Chamber Of Commerce. Stating he
was an old employe and friend of
Col. Roosevelt, Mr.. Bum commended
the project heartily and declared he
would be glad to make contribu-
