roads are marked. All crossroads
leading to different small towns are
marked but one looking for Benton

Benton City until they arrive at the
crossroads of the State highway and
the main street of the town. It would
be well if some of the many organ
izations would take the matter ND, as
visitors coming from the coast are
obliged to stop along the way to
see if they are on the right road.

CAPITOL

"When we promise audiences ac-
ton, we give it to 'em!"
This is the assertion of Hunt
Stromberg, one of the youngest pro-
ducers in the motion picture indus
try.
And he isn't talking through his
hat, as "The Night Hawk starring
Harry Carey, which is now playing
at the Capitol theatre proves.
''The Night Hawk this alone
makes it different from practically
every other western ever filmed-has
no robbery at all. But it has lots
of other things, more thrilling be-
cause more unusual.
There is the wild horse Ell Sang'ri-
to, for instance. This equine actor
can provide more thrills to the square
foot of film than any villain on the
screen today.
Then there is Carey's wild ride to
aavc this girl from a gang of ruff
fans. Astride Ell Sang'rito he tears
over the country like whirlwind.
Fights--races- play-romance!
And then more fights and more races
and more shooting! This is the way
Stromberg keeps his promise about
giving the public virile action.

WEED CUTTING
IMPERATIVE
Required by Law Twice Each
Year Along Roads

All weeds bordering state high
ways must be cut, under the direc-
ton of township road overseers,
twice each year, under the provi-
sions of law passed in 1919, ac-
cording to the recent highway news
bulletin. The two dates on which
the weeds must be cut are: between
July 1st and July 18th and between
October LIST and 18th.
In case the overseer of roads does
not perform his duty, the County
Board is required to supervise the
work and its cost is to be charged
to the townships.
Township boards pay the bills for
weed removal which are filed with
them in the same manner as they
pay other road expenses.
The law covering weed removal
reads, in part, as follows: at shall
be the duty of the road overseer in
,all organized or unorganized town
ships, and the street commissioner
state of North Dakota, to cut or
destroy, or cause to be cut or de-
stroyed, all weeds and grasses of
every name, nature and description,
growing along or upon all graded
public highways-at least twice each
year, to-wit: Once between July 1st
and July 18th and once between Oc-
tober 1st and October 18th of each
year. Said Work shall be paid for
out Of the road fund the same as
any other road work."

NORTH DAKOTA
STANDARDS OF
HOMES BETTER
Director of Design of Art
Institute Speaks of lm-
prOvements
WAR is REFLECTED

Chicago, Ill.,, Sept. 5.---Marked i'm
provcment in the standard Of nome
construction in North Dakota is de-
scribed by Alphonse lanelli, director
of the department of design in the
Chicago Art Institute School. the
largest art-school in the world. Mr..
Ianeli has just returned from max
ing survey of the building industry
in North Dakota, particularly as 1T
pertains to small dwellings,.
"In two ways effects of the war
are reflected in the trend Of home
building in North Dakota" he said.
First, it has brought bigger incomes
to many households and that has in
creased the number Of homebuilders.
North Dakota people come of sound
stock and are not profligate; rather,
they are inclined to invest their sur
plus in the home. This is shown, not
only by the sustained volume of new
building, but also by the great act
tivity in repairing and remodellng
homes.
Wars Change
"Secondly, the war has brought
about the introduction of many new
building materials. These materials
are finding widespread acceptance be-
cause the average home-builder in
North Dakota now wants fireproof-
ing. insulation, sanitation and arts
tic decoration. These things which
used to be regarded as luxuries now
are necessities Of home-building and
are demanded by every average small
home owner.''
Mr.. Ianelli mentioned Sheetrock,
the fireproof gypsum wallboard man
ufactured by the United States Gyp-
sum Company, as typical Of the new
materials which are raising the stan
dard of home building. One Of the
reasons, he said, why Sheetrock is
finding wide acceptance is because 1t
is an insulator, increasing comfort
in warm weather and saving fuel in
winter.
"Another reason" he continued
| sis that, coming in large rigid sheets
| convenient to fit the studding of any
room, it is rapid and economical to
! install. And the fact that it is made
, of rock, adding to the structural
rigidity of the building, and being
impossible to warp, buckle or shrink
| is another reason why it is accepted
| as wall and ceiling finish for dwell
! ings ranging all the way up to $50, ,00O
| in value.

ibility it offers for beautiful home

manent and rigid, does not have to
be paneled like other wallboards. but
can be papered, .calcimined, painted
or treated with TeXtonc or any other
wall decorator or prepared wall
fabric"
Mr. Ianelli pointed out that this
wallboard is available for farm-homes
as we'll as citydwellings.
Farmers whose whole future is
tied up in chickens, cattle and other
livestock and in stored grains" he
remarked "are coming to see the

Protest Arrest After Party
Is Staged at Hollywood

Los Angeles, Sept. 5.-Too perfect

ters in the hills back of Hollywood.
were responsible for the arrest OF 23
members of the motion picture col
ony at birthday party in Laurel
Canyon early yesterday. according
to police officers who participated
in the raid.
The % celebrants. including Jack
Sheriff., former motion picture di-
rector, and A. l.. Sheriff., Jr., in
whose home the party was progress
ing, were arrested on complaint Of
several Laurel Canyon residents.
When, however, it developed that
no odor of intoXicants could be de-
tected on the breath Of any one Of
those arrested. the city prosecutor
refused to issue complaints against
any except the two Sherrills, who
are alleged to have been on the
point of bringing five bottles Of
liquor into the house when inter
rupted by the raiding officers.
1t was then explained that the
acoustics Of Laurel Canyon, on the
outskirts Of Hollywood, is almost as
remarkable as that of Hollywood
bowl, nearby natural amphitheater
where an audience of 10000 can
hear a speaker whisper. And so, in
Laurel Canyon, quiet birthday
party at which no liquor had yet
been consumed deceived many res
idents into thinking, police said,
that a drunken orgy was in full

Sharp Upturns Are Followed
BY Declines

Chicago, Sept. 5.-(By the A. P.)-
Wheat prices broke sharply during
the early trading today after display
ing an upward tendency at the start.
An advance of Liverpool quotations
and reports of continued drought in
the Argentine were chiefly response
BILE for the initial upturn here. 1ni-
tial quotations which were unchang-
ed to one-half cent higher, with Sept
$124 IA to $l.24 3-S and December
Sl.29 to Sl.29 Ia, were quickly fol-
lowed by decline all around.
Subsequently wheat showed the ef-
feet of persistent selling by longs
and the market eased rather sharply
with prices near the low point a. the
finish. The close was 7-8 to l 3-S
cents off, with September $l.22 rs

WEST AFRICA
BEGINS USE,OF
WHEAT BREAD

Washington, Sept. 5.-Natives of
British and French West Africa are
rapidly adopting yeast bread made of
wheat flour as a regular item of diet,
and agriculture department officials
foresee an increased trade in -four
with that territory.
The growing demand for wheat
flour is the result of laborers being
recruited from the interior for ser
vice in the seaport towns where, az
cording to American Consul w. j..
Yerby, at Dakar, Senegal, it is quite
common for these laborers to make
a meal of a loaf Of bread and a tin
of water. Bakers bread is replacing
millet mush and rice in Senegal and
Gambia, Consul Yerby reports, cas-
sava and manioc dumpling and rec
in French Guinea, Sierra Leong, and
Liberia, and maize and yams in the
Ivory Coast, Gold Coast, Dahomey,
and Nigeria.
Thirty years ago imports of wheat
flour into that part of Africa were
almost negligible, the small quantities
received being used by few traders
and government officials.

DENY INTERVENTION

Peking. Sept. 5.-(By the A. P.>--
Denial that Chang Tso Lin, military
Governor Of Manci.uria, has threaten
ed TO mediate by force IN the Chinese
civil warfare around Shanghai unless
the fighting were stopped, was made
today by the Chinese foreign crf;cr
The foreign office admitted it had
received communication from Gen
eral Chang but asserted that insteHd
of being in threatening nature its
tone was friendly. In the letter
Chang was said to have deprecated
the fact that civil war should be
added to the sufferings of Chinese
people, already harassed by a series
of devastating floods: It was stat
ed that the letter did not contain the
slightest intimation that Gen. Chang
intended to participate in the strug-
giles.

American who has just returned from

ROWING IS
HEALTHFUL
EXERCISE
College Coach Would Recon-
mend Rowing as Good
Sport

Seattle, Wash, Sept. 5.-An old
belief that college rowing causes
heart-strain and damages the future
health has been attacked by Russell
r. Callow, coach of the University
OF Washington crews that have won
the intercollegiate championship at
Poughkeepsie, n. u, the last two
years.
Rowing" Mr.. Callow said. with
proper conditioning and training of
men, is great upbuilder of the
human system and viii increase a
mans life because the sport embra-
ces all those elements that build
up the body and keep it fit.
"Dr. Meylar of Columbia univer-
sity said, after studying the records
of so years rowing at Harvard, that
oarsmen lived five years longer than
any class of men engaged in sport.
at is my thought that oarsmen
live longer than devotees of any
other of the so-called violent sports
call for the abuse of the body or
make 1t subject to such blows,
knocks, bruises and fractures as do
boxing, football, wrestling, baseball
and other major sports.
Rowing, in the final analysis,
does nothing but enlarge the capac-
ity of the lungs, fill them with pure
air, build up the abdominal muscles
and all the other muscles in the
human frame. 1t gives to it's devo-
tees billions Of rays of exhilarating,
life-preserving sunshine"
An Oarsman improves as he grows
older, said Mr.. Callow. "A Univer-
sity oarsmansis good at 20, better at
25, and if l could have crew made
records would be set.

By IDA pAILEs.

FIRST, let us get this basic fact in
/ our minds: The farmer-labor
party was so feeble an embryo that
despite our anxious and sympathetic
midwifery it was still-born. And now
it is buried in the LaFollette cemetery.
This is an accomplished fact and on
this there can be little controversy.
From here we must proceed. Two
groups in our Central Executive Com.
mittee have viewed the same facts and
have come forward with different con.
clusions. The majority Of the c. E. c.
says We'll. the farmer-labor party
is no more. The Workers Party, how.
ever, goes on. What shall we do
next?" And they present to the party
united front program on the child
labor amendment, on the Sacco-van-
zetti case, and propose that for the i'm.
mediate future our political united
front shall find expression in similar
immediate issues of interest to the
working class. No one can say in
face Of this, that the majority of the
Central Executive Committee is aban.

A FEW FUNDAMENTALS

the farmer-labor slogans. This looks
like a blue print. Blue prints are all
right, but let us examine this one
The principle argument is that condi-
tons have not basically changed for
the better since the farmer-labor move
ment was supported by large number
OF workers and poor farmers and
therefore it is still vital slogan. II
this argument is correct, then why did
the workers and poor farmers desert
the farmer-labor party on July 4
1924? We're not conditions then the
same as they were on July 3, 1929
Evidently the workers and farmers dc
not act according to blue prints.
Again, It seems to me that there arc
two great dangers in the farmer-labor
slogan at present. Inside Of a sub
stantial, organized farmer-labor party
our duty is to support and criticize al
the same time. We can point out the
shortcomings OF a farmer-labor party
and propagandize for our own party
But when we come to the workers
with slogan for the creation OF q
farmer-labor party. we will have to
borrow the red clothing OF the Work
ers Party in order to dress up the
farmer-labor party. We will have to
parade the farmer-labor party as the
paragon Of all the virtues of real
revolutionary class party that fights
for the interests Of the workers and
farmers" This will mean that we
