T0WNLEY AND
HASTINGS CASE
NEARS FINISH
LeSueur, Summing Up Evi-
dence Against Accused,
Says Stores Money Used

Fargo, April 80. Summarizing of
ley and j. j. Hastings, former Off
cials of the Nonpa,tisan League.
who are charged with the embeZzle-
ment of more than $4,000 of funds
belonging to the Consumers United
Stores Company, held major atten-
tion at the preliminary hearing here
this morning.
Arthur LeSueur, special prosecutor
in the case, charged in his summary,
which concluded his argument. that
League banks were bought with
money for the Consumers United
Stores Company because no legiti-
mate banker, after they discovered
the kind of transactions they were
asked to engage in, would or could
finance those kind Of transactions.
He also charged that the defend
ant deliberately used the funds that
were entrusted to their care by the
stores to buy stock in the Hatton,
the Scandinavian-Ameri and other,
banks.
1t was evident from the argument
of today that bitter legal contro-
versy will be waged around the
points dealing with the statute Of
limitations, the defense counsel de-
claring that the case should be dis
missed, due to the fact that, the al
legged offense was committed more
than three years before the arrest
of Townley and Hastings.

MANY BANKS
ARBMLANNING
ON RE0PENING
Guaranty Fund Commission
Considers Requests For
Naming Requirements

Prospects of early rcopcning of
several banks in the state, closed be-
cause of lack of reserve, are held
good by members of the Guaranty
Fund Commission, who have conclud-
ed session of two weeks, during
which time they heard members of
boards of directors of banks and re-
ports from examiners.
The Guaranty Fund Commissio ion,
within the past several months, has
laid down requirements for the re-
opening of approximately 70 banks
in the state, acting in each case upon
the request of stockholders and di-
rectOrs of the banks who feel that
they will be able to DO business
again. The commission considered
the cases of II banks in its session
which has just ended.
The Guaranty Fund Commission,
when bank has been closed and
there is desire expressed to reopen
it, sends examiners into the banks
to value the assets, and determine
whether or not the bank may con-
tinue permanently if it is permitted
to reopen. The commission then sets
down rigid requirements, with refer
ence to Stockholders meeting ilabili
ty, assurance of maintenance Of an
even flow of deposits for a. period
and in general ascertaining that the
community and depositors would be
benefited by the reopening. Be-
cause requests for the fixing of re-
quirements for reopening of banks
have become so numerous, the Guar
anty Fund Commission has placed J.
C. Desmond on the work Of reorgani-
zation exclusively.

EXCLUSION OF
JAPS SUBJECT
OF CONFERENCE
Effective Date May BE
Changed TO July to Per-
nit Negotiations
CONFEREES MEETING
Settling Minor Differences
Between Bills of the
House and Senate

Washington April 30. With indi-
cations pointing to an agreement by
Senate and House immigration bill
confcrccs for postponing the effect
i've date of the Asiatic provision
until July |, a renewal of the Japan
csc exclusion fight, ir the Senate
at least, appears certain.
The postponcment is understood
to have been suggested by President
Coolidge to give time for diplomatic
exchanges between Washington and
Toxic that would. without giving so
much offense to the Japanese, at
tain the end sought in the exclusion
provision.
The President, Secretary Hughes,
Senator Reed, Republican of Penn
sylvania, who directed the bill
through the Senate; and other con-
grcssional leaders have held a num-
bcr of conferences on the question
in the last few days and word was
taken to the White House yesterday
that the Senate and House conferees
could be expected to reach Il post
ponement on the decision within "a
hours. At the same time it was
made clear that number of west.
crn Senator'S would make deter
mined fight against a conference re-
port recommending such change.
The effective date was the only
point at which the exclusion provi-
sions adopted by the House and Sem
ate contained any material differ
cnce, and according to parliament
tarians this enabled the conferees
to take up the matter.
The House left the exclusion pro-
vision, like all others, to become eff
fcctive July l, on expiration of the
present law, but the Senate adopted
an amendment proposed by Senator
Reed making it effective immedi-
ately after enactment.

MANY ATTEND
DEDICATION OF
NEW BUILDING
Roosevelt School Is Formally
Opened, with Large Number
of Patrons Present
PROGRAM is RENDERED
Plea Is Made For Removal Of
Seventh and Eighth Grades
of Junior High School

At the formal opening. exercises of
the new Roosevelt school held last
evening when the gymnasium was
comfortably filled with intcrcstcd
residents of that vicinity and othc:
citizens of Bismarck, Mrs. o. w.
Roberts, chairman of the committee
on arrangements made strong APP
peal for the establishment of the
seventh and eighth grades of the
Junior high school in the new build
ing. Mrs. Roberts was chosen to
talk on The Utilization of the
Roosevelt Building. She stated
while the Roosevelt school, it did
not cost as much to build as Il num-
Der of other schools, it is conceded by
most to be the finest school building
in the City of Bismarck. 1t is beau
tifully. located, artistic, absolutely
firepr6of, scientifically lighted, heat
ed and ventilated. 1t has ten large
airy rooms, an office for the prin-
cipal and one for the nurse in case
of accidents, sudden illness, etc, a
large domestic science room and the
splendid gymnasium in which these
exercises were held.
Only four of the rooms are now
occupied; the first grade, combined
second and third grade, the fourth
grade, whose teacher is the principal,
and combination fifth and sixth
grade. 1t is the wish of number of
patrons to have the seventh and
eighth grades, Junior high in the new
school.
Mrs. Roberts gave many reasons
for the proposed change which will
be published prior to the circulation
of petition authorizing the school
board to establish the seventh and
eighth grades Junior high in the new
building.
Nicely Decorated
Baskets and vases of tulips and
ferns, combined with palms and pa
triOtic colors formed the artistic set
ting for the program given on this
joyous occasion, and Mrs. Alfred
Zuger, general chairman, welcomed
the guests. She said education
means to live, for education means
development and embodiment. She
stated the one thing worth praying
for is to be in the line of evolution
and growth; there is no happiness
elsewhere. Safe is the conscientious
ness that we are tunnelling towards
the light slowly but surely, she said.
TO know this is to live. We are all
sons of God and it does not yet ap-
pear what we shall be. Our win
dows are open toward the east, she
said, we are gathered here for the
formal opening and dedication of the
new building. Our windows are open
toward the. east for the development
and unfoldment of our youth, the
boys and girls of today who will be
the men and women of the future"
A clever program presented by the
children was greatly appreciated.
The opening number was a delightful
overture by the high school orchcs-
ira followed by the good night drill
in which eight little girls clad in
