GERMANY TO
CONTINUE ITS
TRADE PARLEY
Statement Issued Says That
Negotiations with British
Not Broken Down
WILL BE RENEWED
Disagreement Over Conces-
siOns Demanded by Great
Britain, 1t Is Said
BE RENEWED

Berlin, Sept. 25.-(By the A. P)
The German foreign office issued
a statement today explaining that
the Anglo German commercial nego-
tiations had not broken down as re-
ported but only had been postponed.
They will be resumed shortly, the
statement adds, with every prospect
of satisfactory conclusion.
The commercial negotiations be-
tween representatives Of the British
board of trade and the German trade
ministry were begun this week with
the object of forming a treaty Of
commerce between the two nations.
Berlin dispatches Wednesday night
reported the collapse of the negoti-
ations, the reason being, it was said.
that the negotiators had found it
impossible to discover common
basis for the proposed instrument.
One Of the main difficulties w15
thought to be a refusal by the Gtpe
mans to grant concessions demandeeI
b. Great Britain for exemption from
taxation Of British goods exported
to Germany under the proposed new
German tariff which was understood
to provide for duties considered Writ
ually prohibitive on the British pro-
ducts involved.

ises F. A. VOgel
CALLED ON PHONE
Statement Exacted For Him
To Head off Lemke Can
didacy for Governor

Nonpartisan League leaders here
in efforts to head off filing of petit
tions placing William Lemke in the
race for Governor cracked the whip
over the head of A. G. Sorlie, Lea
que candidate for Governor.
Demands were made on Sorlie, it
is understood, to make a flat footed
declaration for Senator LaFollette
for President. Heretofore, Sorlie
had made but one declaration in his
favor, a statement published prema-
turely and predicated on the with
drawal of the four Republican cleo
tors by the LaFollette forces, which
has not been done. In speech at a
League picnic at Dunn Center Sun
day, according to the official report
in the North Dakota Nonpartisan, he
did not mention LaFollette.
F. A. Vogel, LaFollette campaign
manager and active leader in the
Nonpartisan League, in defending
Sorlie, told an audience here that he
had got Sorlie on the telephone.
"Mr. Sorlie said recently in a
statement that since the LaFollette
electors were withdrawn he could de-
clare for LaFollette. talked with
him and he now says that regardless
of the four electors being on the
ballot, because of the manipulation
and unfairness, in every speech from
now on he is 100 percent for LaFol-
lette. He said he spent several hours
in the LaFollette headquarters re-
Gently in Chicago going over mat
ters."

LARGER LOAN
FUND NEEDED

Grand Forks, N. D., Sept. 25.--Of-
ficials of the University of North
Dakota are attempting to secure ad-
ditional funds to loan to students as
a result of the applications for loans,
already sent in, amounting to about
$4,000, while the part of the univer-
sity loan funds not loaned at pres
ent is $1,000, stated ]. w. Wilkerson,
treasurer of the university and
chairman of the student loan fund
committee. Outstanding loans to
students at present number no and
account for the major portion Of
the $16,460.31 at the disposal of the
student loan committee.
The university is rated among the
13 highest of 151 educational insti-
tutions using funds of the Harmon
foundation of New York City. This
rating is based on the efficiency of
the local committee in administer
ing and collecting the student loans.
Last year the university was allotted
$4,000 Of the Harmon funds while
the amount this year 10 $1,000.

TAXPAYERS URGE PROMPT ACTION
in PUTTING CITY ENGINEER
ON SALARY, FULL TIME BASIS

These fees are legitimate charges
for services performed, but il is the
contention of taxpayers engaged in
this study of city finances that the
city engineer has so many demands
upon his time and his services are
dispersed over so many jobs that the
city could make Il more economical
business arrangement by alloting an
engineer stated salary and by so
doing eliminate the superintendent
of the water works and street COM
missioner whose duties can be taken
care of very easily by full time
city engineer now that no new addi-
tional public work of any magnitude
is contemplated.
Objection Raised
Objection TO placing the city en-
gineer upon a salary basis and pro-
viding that all fees earned be turned
into the city treasury, is made by
some city commissioners on the
grounds that the city water plant is
not completed. That is not ma
terial excuse. An engineer can be
hired as soon as possible and the At
kinson commission arrangements
provided by contract discharged at
anytime. Now that the intake at
the river is on cost plus basis, Mr..
Atkinson under his contract will be
paid five percent commission which
of course should not be confused
with the three percent commission
paid on $265,OOO purchase price of
the old water plant. That commits
sion is to be the subject for court
inquiry.
If the taxpayers are to be saved
money the paid full time city en-
gineer with duties as outlined should
be established without delay. That
would cut off five percent on all
sewers and water works extensions
contemplated and ten percent en-
gineering fee rumored on 100000
paving job between Bismarck and
the state penitentiary on which
some of the local railroad officials
have been approached.
Now is the time to act if taxes are
to be lessened in Bismarck.

OF
GRAIN DENIED
Grand Forks Embargo Places
To Relieve Car Shortage

Minot, N. D., Sept. 25.-No more
cars of grain may be billed to Grand
Forks over the Great Northern for
the purpose of inspection and to
await orders, according to an order
issued Tuesday morning and which
is understood to be temporary to
permit the yards here to be cleared
of loaded grain cars.
A similar order, abolishing the
privilege of billing loaded grain cars
to Minnesota points for sampling
and inspection, was issued by the
Great Northern, with the consent Of
the Northwest Regional advisory
board, a week ago because of the
glutted condition of sidings at these
places.
The privilege granted by the road
of stopping cars here for inspection
by the state mill and the RUSSELL
Miller Milling company, and possibly
sending them on after delay of
from one to three days, is said to
have been abused by dealers, with a
resultant slowing up of grain car
movement.
With an almost unprecedented
movement of grain to terminal mar
kets at this time, the problem of
keeping the traffic moving and re-
turning the cars to the grain dis
tricts as speedily as possible is one
that the roads are trying to meet
as efficiently as possible, it is said,
and the abolition of the inspection
privilege at Grand Forks and at the
four or five Minnesota points, in
cluding Sandstone, st. Cloud, Cass
Lake and Willmar is said to be in
line with the solving of this prob
lem.
On Monday, 2,l52 loaded cars of
grain were hauled into Duluth. and
1,647 cars into the Twin Cities.

Carries Dummy
To Fool Bandits

Marmarth, N. D., Sept. 25.--His
own peculiar system has been devils
ed by Alex Neuman of Cincinnati,
Ohio, in warding off the possibility
of attack by highway yeggs.
He carries a dummy in the seat
of his runabout; the dummy being
his constant companion.
"By carrying the dummy" said
Neuman when he and his strange
companion landed in Marmarth, 81
am freed from calls for lifts by
professional hikers, and, if a road
yegg should attempt to attack me,
l would hold up my hands, and the
dummy probably would be shot for
not putting up his. In the excite
ment, I'll make my getaway, orr
while the highwayman concentrates
his attention on the dummy, I'll
shoot the bandit"
In one town, said Neuman, his
dummy was mistaken by police
officer for drunk" who threaten
ed to Jail him.

Aboard Dawes Special, enroute to
Minnesota, Zumbrota, Minnesota,
Sept. 25.--(By the A. P.)-Senator
LaFollette, independent candidate
for President, was charged by Char
les G. Dawes, Republican vice-presi-
Dental nominee, in series of Mimi
esota speeches today, with having
attacked the Constitution Of the
United States in order to obtain
Socialist support"
"Robert M. LaFollette, in order to
get the Socialists, masked himself
behind the red flag into his combin-
alton to attack the Constitution Of
the United States," Mr.. Dawes de-
clared. "That doesn't 60 out in this
section Of the country, for there is
no radicalism in the west. What
they call radicalism in the west is
merely a desire to improve condi-
tions."
Mr.. Dawes made this declaration
in an address at Rochester and con-
tinued the attack on the LaFollette
candidacy as he travelled northward
toward Minneapolis in rear platform
speeches listed for Zumbrota, Red
Wing and South St. Paul.
The crowd that greeted Mr.Dawes
at Rochester stretched away for al
most hundred yards on all sides of
his car and chcered when the speak
CIR in conclusion declared the voters
of Minnesota this fall had their
choice between the "Constitution Of
the United States, the American flag
and President Coolidge on one hand,
and LaFollette standing on the sink
ing stand of socialism on the other"

LEADERS BUSY

F1lng OF peCltlOnS bearing more
than the necessary 800 names were
expected to place William Lemke of
Fargo, former Attorney-General, in
the race as "LaFollette- Wheeler
Progressive" candidate for Governor,
until his announcement in Fargo. Pc
titions must be filed in the office of
the Secretary of State not later than
5 o'clock today.
Strenuous efforts were made by
leading Nonpartisans to prevent the
filing of the names. r. w. Frazier,
member of the Nonpartisan League
State Executive Committee, said he
talked with Lemke by telephone and
f. J. Pepke, league campaign manag-
er, said that he had talked with C.
C. Lauder of Jamestown, Lemke
hacker. It also became known that
United States Senator Lynn J. Fra
zier, who is campaigning for Robert
M. LaFollette in Illinois, was asked to
stop the filing of Lemke petitions.
Sorlie's Promise
F. A. Vogel, LaFollette campaign
manager, informed conference here
that A. G. Sorlie, Republican-Non-
partisan candidate for Governor, had
informed him that from now on he
would be 100 percent for LaFollette
in his speeches. This was taken in
political circles to mean that Sorlie,
whom Vogel said he talked to on the
telephone, had been asked to make
flat declaration for LaFollette in
order to discourage the candidacy of
Lemkc.
At noon today both the LaFollette
and League headquarters were quiet,
except for stenographers and few
of the leaders.
Elector Situation
The presidential electors situation
also was unsettled at noon today.
Five Republican electors, four Of
whom are known as LaFollette men,
were in position to go on the ballot.
designations declared to have been
given by the four to R. W. Frazier,
chairman of the Republican state
committee as controlled by the Nom
partisln League, were returned to
them, he said yesterday. Both Fra
zier and F. A. Vogel said at noon to-
day that there would be no move
made by them toward removing the
four alleged LaFollette inclined elec-
tors from the Republican column.
Meanwhile preparations were un-
der way to file set of five out and
out Coolidge presidential electors in
the individual column and also a
new set of five LaFollette electors in
the individual nominations column.
When the Secretary of States Of
flee received from John Pollock of
Fargo, secretary of the Real Republi-
can state committee, petitions plac-
ing five Coolidge electors in nomin-
alton, it was said at that office that
they could not be filed under the
designation Coolidge Republican,"
as called for in the petitions, since
Coolidge was in the Republican col
umn, unless the Republican national
committee declared that the electors
in the Coolidge column did not rep
resent him.
The petitions were taken from the
office by e. T. Burke of Bismarck,
who planned to return them later af-
ter telephone conversations with
Coolidge hackers in Fargo.
