San Bernardino, California, Nov
26.-(By the A. P.)-Miss Mary Wat
kins, approaching the witness stand
at a coroners inquest to be held here
today. profcsscd ignorance of the cir
cumstances surrounding the tragic
death Of her employer, William r.
Fec, Alhambra bank president, whose
body was found yesterday by a
searching party in the San Bernard
inc mountains near cabin main
tanned by Miss Watkins. Sheriff w
R. Shay believes the banker was MUIR
dered.
Mr.. Fee had been missing since
last Saturday afternoon when he
journeyed to the mountains with his
wife. He was last seen when he told
her he was going to repair radio
aerial as he left the mountain place
! owned by Los Angeles banker and
occupied by the Fees.
At her home in Alhambra Miss
Watkins told Of her trip out to her
mountain cabin last Saturday and re.
newed her explanation of the finding
of suit Of clothing identified as
one worn by Mr.. Fee by saying the
garb had been given to her some
time ago by the banker for the pur-
pose of providing hiking clothes for
men guests whom she and her sister
often entertained at the cabin.
Found Near Cabin
The body Of Mr.. Fee was found SO
yards from the cabin occupied by
Miss Watkins and half.mile from
the cabin occupied by the Fees OH
Saturday. Scarchers believe that
the body had been placed in the posi-
tion in which it was found sometime
Monday night. Miss Watkins said
that an affectionatc note signed
"Mary". found near the body Of the
banker, was without significance.
That Fee was murdered was re-
vealed, in the opinion of Sheriff
Shay, when autopsy surgeons last
night found small skull fracture
behind the bankers left ear such as
might have been caused by blow
from sand bag or black jack. Sur
geons further declared that the body
might have been carried to where it
was found; that the position Of the
limbs were not what they would have
been had Fee died where the body
was found.

MORALE NOT
LEGAL DEBT
Court Finds State Morally
Obligated TO Carnegie

The Home Trust Company Of Hobo
ken, New Jersey, as executor Of the
estate of Andrew Carnegie has {;
moral but not a legal claim against
the state of North Dakota for $35, ,OW
and interest for one year at four per,
cent, Judge Fred Jansonius decided
today.
The claim originated, the. courts
memorandum recites, in 1902 when
Thomas Marshall as representative
of the board of trustees of the nor
NAL and industrial school at Ellen
dale asked the former iron king fol
$4,000 to build Carnegie Hall, the
board Of trustees giving certificates
Of Indebtedness due in 20 years.
Judge Jansonius says in his opin-
ion it was understood by Mr.. Carne-
gle and Mr.. Marshall that the "obli-
cation was moral rather than a le-
gal one, and that they depended up
on the legislature to legalize the
transaction" The court concluded
that cit is my opinion that this is a
matter for the legislature, and not
for the courts"

COURT RULES
ON RISK LAW
Physical Impact Not Neces-
sary to Support Claim

The supreme court, in an opinion
handed down today, laid down the
principle that physical impact is not
necessary to produce injuries for
which compensation may be claimed
from the state Workmcns Compen-
sation Bureau. In the case before'
the court, involving the death Of
Fred Pace of Mnot, whose widow
claimed that he was overcome by
heat in the plant of the Northern
States Power Company of that city
and that this led to apoplexy which
caused his death the court held Pace
was entitled to recover.
The compensation bureau asserted
in defense that the testimony with
regard to him being overcome by
heat was not supported by fact and
that the connection between this, if
true. and his death, was wholly con-
jectural.
Mrs. Fanny Pace, widow of the de-
ceased, will receive more than $1,000

QUESTIONS TO
BE ASKED IN
CENSUS GIVEN
For Agriculture, Census Con-
sidered Most Important
in States History
w H AT is SOUGHT

Fargo, N. D., Nov. ga total of
158 questions will be asked of farm
ers in North Dakota and other
states of the union in the agricul-
tural census to be taken by the fed
eral government beginning Dec. l
and ending Jan. 81, 1925. All infor-
nation will be secured as of Jan.
l, 1925.
Questions on the schedule are di-
vided into II classes,-information
concerning the farm operator, farm
tenure, acreages, farm Values farm
debt, farm expenses, cooperative
marketing activities, farm facilities,
farm population, crops harvested in
1924, forests and forest products,
livestock and livestock products.
For agriculture, this census is
considered to be the most important
ever taken in the history of the
country" declares Rex f. Willard,
farm economist at the Agricultural
college, who is cooperating with the
federal officials in charge. "The
reason for its Importance is the fact
that agriculture is at the bottom, or
has just started to climb, in the
cycle of depression and prosperity.
"The agricultural census was au-
thorized by the last session Of con-
gress, and is being conducted by
the United States bureau of COM
merce. For the past several years,
we have had many proposals for re-
lieving the agricultural depression,
some extravagant and some appar-
emily sound.
"The peculiar part Of it is that
despite the multiplicity of cures sug
gested, no one has known exactly
what was swrong with the patient.
That may be the explanation of the
reason why such widely varying re-
lief measures have been proposed.
This agricultural census which is
about to be started will furnish the
facts regarding agriculture, and will
set at rest all guesses and eXtrava-
giant statements made by people as
to the status of farming"
Information called for in the
schedule includes acreage of farms,
amount of land rented, rate Of rent,
land in various crops, summer fall
low, pasture, production of all crops,
number of head of various classes
of livestock and poultry, and value
of livestock and livestock products.
Information is called for from
which a net worth statement can
be prepared. Data will be secured
on the value of the farm, buildings,
implements and machinery. Farm
expenditures and taxes for 1924 will
also be listed. Reports will be Sc
cured on the value of farm products
sold through cooperative marketing
and on the value of
ssupplies purchased through farm
crs' organizations.
That census officials are moved
by the spirit of the times is indi-
Gated by question No. 80, "Is there
a radio outfit on this farm?"

Bismarck radio fans tried nightly
last night to get messages from
across the Atlantic, and at least one
Richard f. Wenzel, is reasonably
sure that he heard radio program
broadcast from France.
All stations in the United States
were asked to be silent for an hour
between 10 and II. while the effort
was being made to receive foreign
programs. Several local fans heard
music, but were not certain that il
came from abroad.
The Memphis broadcasting station
announcing that foreign program
was being broadcast, asked any fans
who believed they heard program
to notify them. Mr.. Wenzel today
dispatched the following letter t(
the Memphis station:
Nov. &c, 1924
Station VINO,
Commercial Appeal.
Memphis, Tenn.
Mr. Announcer:
sent you day letter today in
relation to The reception of radio
broadcastng from foreign countries
AS stated in the message (and
making allowance for difference be-
tween my watch and the Western
Union Regulatory We got into touch
with this station at 1882 p. M. Re-
ception was fine at this point. A man
was making an address, apparently
and we heard perfectly through the
loud speaker, but were unable to un-
derstand the language.
We. therefore, sent out for some
friends who could understand French
which was, apparently, the language
spoken. Before they arrived. how
ever, the speech had been concluded
and the piano music had been going
for about five minutes.
At the end Of the speaking, we
thought we caught part of an an
nounce ment, but several regenerative
sets started working, and we could
get nothing clear.
The piano music continued, as
stated in the message, until 11:02 1-2,
when your station announced its
first number, cutting off the other
station. Your succeeding announce
ment, that you had just heard piano
music coming from foreign station
from 10:4O to 11:OO without any an
nouncement of the sending station
was part corroboration, at least, of
our having been the recipients Of for
eign radio broadcasting.
Just about five minutes before we
located the station above referred
to VIC tuned in on station ut which
the language used was English. This
may have been 2LO, London, as news.
paper reports show that station to be
operating on 365 meters, and we
caught it at about that point on oul
dials. However, the local interfer.
ence, caused by regeneratives tuning
in here, made it impossible to do any.
thing with it.
We shall appreciate information

MUCH EASIER

London, Nov. 26.-(By the A. P.)-
Field Marshal Viscount Allenby
British high commissioner in Egypt
informed the British government in
a message today that the situation
in Egypt was much easier today as
a result of the respite since the re-
signation Of the British cabinet. The
possibility of serious riots in Cairo
and other centers, he said, was great
ly reduced.
Lord Allenby, it was said in official
quarters, believes the Ziwar Pasha
cabinet will accept the remaining
British demands for open direct ne
gotiations for settlement of the diff
ferences existing between the gov
ernments.
Official dispatches assert the popu'
lation seems to have become recon
ciled to the new state of affairs and
it is believed in government quarters
that if the Ziwar cabinet accepts the
demands they will be tolerated by
even the extremists, at least for the
present. British officials here hope
that the Ziwar government, if it gets
smooth start, will be able to
strengthen it's foothold so that it car
withstand the attacks of the opposi'
ton, which are certain to be strong
Nm the new assembly.
Avoid Appearance Of Pressure
Lord Allenby and Neville Hender-
son, the British diplomatic represen-
tative in Cairo, meanwhile are not
making contacts with the new gov
eminent to greater extent than
their official duties require, it being
desired to prevent prevalence of the
idea in Egypt that Great Britain is
influencing the new government pol
icy.
While the movement of any British
troops toward Egypt has been tenn
porarily suspended the troops actual
ly within Egyptian boundaries are
constantly moving toward and about
the concentration points at Cairo and
Alexandria. British troops are being
marched through the streets of Cairo
daily in accordance with the British
custom in similar cases in near east
ern territory based on experience as
to the best means of deterring would
be rioters. Lord Allenby informed
the home government that there were
three battalions of troops in Cairo
and that they were marched through
the streets late last night and pro-
badly would be ordered out again to-
day.

NEEDY WILL BE
GIVEN AID ON
THANKSGIVING
Bismarck Will Eat Heartily,
According to all Indica-
tions Today
NONE NEED GO HUNGRY
Salvation Army, Other Agen.
cies and individuals Ex-
tend Help for the Day
NONE NEED GO HUNGRY

Most residents Of Bismarck will
eat heartily on Thanksgiving, and no
known cases Of need will go unhecd-
cd. With social agencies reporting
little distress at this time, Bismarck
will have one of the best Thanksgiv-
ings in many years. The good con-
ditions resulting from this years
crop are expected to keep employ
ment fairly steady during the winter
months.
Local markets report big sale Of
turkeys for tomorrow, while geese,
ducks and chickens also are in de-
mand.
Business will be pretty we'll sus-
pended in the city, with banks and
public buildings and most business
places closed for the day.
There are some who might go hun
CRY on the nations annual feast day
were it not for helping hands about
the city. Ensign H. Piercy of the
Salvation Army said today that 90 to
25 families would receive each a big
chicken from the Army for Thanks
giving dinner, and that it was posi-
bic that donations would be received
during the day which would make
possible the addition of some deli
cacies in the baskets. While distress
is not wide spread at this time, there
are some very worthy families who
will be helped, he added.
The Salvation Army plans a
THANKSGIVING service tomorrow night
at its citadel, with DR.. X. S. Enge
speaking on the meaning of Thanks
giving.
Many individuals Help
Several kind hearted individuals
called the Red Cross office to get the
names of families who were in need
of assistance for Thanksgiving, and
Miss Mary Cashel has given the
names of several. In most cases the
individuals calling desired to give
aid to children. Miss Cashel ex-
pressed the belief that all in dire
need would be aided. Several fami-
lies she called on, and who, she
Thought. would appreciate a Thanks
giving dinner. have been invited out
for the day, she found.
Because Christmas comes so soon
after Thanksgiving the relief efforts
usually are concentrated at that time
she said, outside of the work of aid
by city and county, social service
agencies and individuals, which goes
on regularly.
At The Prison
Prisoners in the state penitentiary
will have two good meals tomorrow,
according to Warden Lee, with ducks
furnishing the chief article on the
tables. A talk and movie program
also is planned. But one prisoner
will spend Thanksgiving in the coun-
ty Jail, unless he received company
tonight. and he will be fed turkey,
Sheriff Hedstrom said.
Several church services will be
held. The Protestant union service,
under the auspices of the ministerial
association. will be held at 1O:3O II.
m. at the Evangelical church. The
First Lutheran church announces a
service Thursday at 8 o'clock, and
Zion Lutheran church will hold a
service at l0:30 a. m.
