GIDEONS' WORK
GIVEN PRAISE
BY GOVERNOR
Emphasized Importance of
Christian Leadership in
Address in MinOt
AIDS ADVANCEMENT

Minot, N. d., May Ex-Governor r.
A. Nestos, speaking here last night
before the state convention of the
Gideons, praised the work of the
travelling men in placing Bibles in
hotels for convenience of travellers,
and other activities of the organiza-
tion. He said in part:
when person in his develop
ment >remains subject to his parents
and all constituted authority, obed-
lent, reverent and humble; when he
takes care of his body, develops it's
powers and conserves its strength,
when he seeks and secures wisdom,
and when he advances in favor with
God, manifesting throughout it all
the spirit of Christ, such person will
also inevitably advance in favor with
men and will, in spite of adversities
and rebuffs, Misunderstanding and
enmities, establish a leadership that
will enable him to influence others
in conduct and achievement.
Gwen those who do not in their
own lives and work manifest the
spirit of Christ, will respect and ad-
mire tho man who consistently does,
and when it comes to the great crises
in life, will acknowledge his leader
ship and follow him. The disposition
to do unto others as you would have
them do unto you and the ability
to forget self in service of fellowmen
are traits that in themselves insure
leadership.
"A person who is imbued with this
spirit has attained to position of
Christian leadership no matter what
his station in life may be. We have
discovered that the evidence Of this
leadership Is the abiAty to direct
men in conduct and achievement.
Most of us can think Of cases where
some person without education and
money, occupying a humble station
in life, but possessed of the spirit of
Christ, has wonderfully helped to
direct others in conduct and toward
achievement. Such persons in the
quiet dignity of their lives and the
loving self forgetfulness of their
Service, unobtrusively accomplish
much for the betterment of the hu-
man race and the improvement Of its
organized activities. Sometimes be-
cause of it's very unobtrusiveness it
has failed to challenge attention and
many a man and woman that might
have been acclaimed by thel world as
a great leader, has gone through life
doing the acts and rendering the ser
vice of distinguished leadership with
out getting the recognition or pub
lie acclaim"

SEEK TO PROVE.
'KENZIE WA
RESIDENT HERE
Effort of State to Collect In
heritance Tax Opens in
County Court
OBJECTIONS ARE RAISED
Much of Morning Session Is
Consumed in Consideration
of Legal Questions

Questions of procedure and legal
arguments on demurrer of the de-
fense to the cross-petitiOn of the
public administrator, delayed TAX
ing testimony in county court
here today in the case in which
the state of North Dakota and
county of Burleigh seeks to col
lect inheritance tax from the es-
tate of the late Alexander McKen-
zie, former political leader of the
Northwest, who died in st. Paul.
The case had it's inception in Aug
ust, 1928, when the state tax COM
missioner raised the inheritance
tax question on the filing Of the
Mckenzie will with County Judge
|. C. Davies here.
The state contends that although
}Mr. Mckenzie had maintained his
place of abode for several years,
in st. Paul, he had voted in Bis
marck, his former home, cas- late
as 1920 and that for legal purposes
his residence actually was in North
Dakota. The 100000 estate of
the former political leader has al
ready been prCbated in the RAM
)sey county, Minnesota, probate
court.
North Dakota, if it prevails in
all of the claims, would realize an
inheritance tax of about $4,000
according to the estimate of Henry
G. Flannery of Minneapolis, attor-
ney for. the administration, George
p. Flapnery of St. Paul.
Mr.. Flannery filed a demurrer
to the cross-petition of the Bur-
leigh county public administrator
John Fort, arguing that he was not
a proper person to intervene for
the purpose of enforcing collection
of tax, this argument consuming
much of the morning session after
other questions of procedure were
thrashed out.
G. B. Foster of Montreal, Can
ada, general passenger traffic man.
ager of the Canadian Pacific Rail-
road, and Mrs. Foster, who is a
daughter of the late Mr.. Mckenzie
and Hazel Alsterberg of St. Paul,
who was secretary to Mr.. Mcken-
Zlc, were, with George +. Flannery,
to be the witnesses for the defense.
The state was represented at the
hearing, which opened in the county
courtroom after some delay this
morning, by G. c. Converse, state
tax commission, and Gordon V.
Cox, tax department attorney, and
Burleigh county was represented
~
special counsel, and States Attor-
ney E. S. Allen. Zuger and Tillot-
son appeared as attorneys with
Henry Flannery for the estate.
The case has been postponed
\several times, while efforts were
made for settlement. A settlement
had been agreed to by Mr.. Flan-
ne $, it is understood, but was
objected to by Burleigh county
representatives.

SENATE VOTES
AGAINST VETO
OF PRESIDENT
Bill Is Presented in Upper
House With Two Votes
More Than Necessary
COOLIDGE EFFORT FAILS
President Made Last Minute
Effort to Get Senators to
Change Votes

Washington, May 19.-(By
the A. P.)-The Senate today
over-rode President Coolidge's
veto of the soldier bonus bill.
The measure now automat-
ically becomes law, the House
having taken similar action.
The vote was 50 to 26 to
overthrow the veto.
Several Republican organ
ization leaders joined with a
strong Democratic lineup in
upsetting the veto on a vote
which was in doubt until the
last minute.
The vote was two more
than the necessary two-thirds
majority. President Coolidge
himself made an eleventh
hour effort to stem the tide of
for the bill. He sum-
seven Republican
"doubtfuls" to the White
House but was unable to turn
votes.
Thirty Republicans, 27
Democrats and the two Farm
cr-Labor Senators voted to
override the veto. Seventeen
Republicans and nine Demo-
Gratis voted to sustain the
President.
Senators Ladd and Frazier,
Republicans, North Dakota,
voted to override the veto as
did Senators Johnson and
Shipstead, Minnesota.

BIGGEST SESSION FIGHT

Washington, May 10. by the A.
P)-The Senate was confronted to-
day with the task of acting on one
Of the biggest Legislative problems
of the sesion-the soldier bonus 5l!!
vetoed by President Coolidge and re
passed by the House.
Senator Curtis, Republican, Kan
sas, announced he would move to
take up consideration of the veto
this afternoon. Some sparring for
delay was expected from opponents
of the bill and unless vote is pos
sible by tonight, it was considered
likely that proponents, in view Of
the number of members planning to
be absent later in the week, would
attempt to put over definite action
until next week.
Busy minutes were put in this
morning by leaders of the two
groups in efforts to determine de-
finite lineup on the bill which, how
ever, appeared uncertain up to u
late hour. Everyone admitted the
result would be close.
The flood Of messages to Senators
on the bill continued unabated. A
letter termed the proposed bonus
with headquarters in Chicago, in
dorsing the veto of President Coo
lidge, was made public here. The
letter termmned the proposed bonus
IAN insult to the veterans which
should be more properly labeled the
loan shark emergency act"
If repassed by the Senate, which
would require l two-thirds majority.
the bill automatically would become
law. 1t provides for paid-up 20
year endowment insurance policies
for veterans and cash payments for
those not entitled to more than $50
In adjusted service credits.
