erybody get behind movement OF this

WHEAT SCORES
MATERIAL GAIN
Decrease in Amount of Grain
on Ocean Passage Causes
Price to Soar

Chicago, Mar. 23.-Owing largely
to an unexpected decrease of the
amount Of wheat on ocean passage
wheat prices here scored material
advance today during the early deal
ings. The falling off in the aggre-
gate of wheat afloat for Europe was
100000 bushels as compared with
a week ago. On the other hand word
that rain in Texas had broken the
drought over big section of the
state tended at times to bring about
considerable selling pressure on
July and September wheat repre-
senting the new domestic crop. In
itial prices which varied from the
same as Saturdays finish to Id
cents higher, May $1.69 to $1.69 1-2
and July $1.45 3-4 were followed by
upturns all around, interrupted by
brief transient setback but with
May reaching Sill.
Subsequently wheat underwent a
sharp reaction as result of sym
pathy with breaks in the price of
corn, but announcements of 4,7O0,00
bushels decrease in the United States
visible supply of wheat caused the
market to jump upward again at the
last. Wheat closed strong, &c to Az
cents net higher, May $685. to
%1.70 and July $1.48k to $1.49.

ENGINEERS

Grand Forks, N. D., March o.
Requests for graduate engineers are
coming in regularly to the College
Of Engineering at the state univer-
sity, Dean 4. j. Babcock reported
recently. The number Of requests
will exceed the number of North

Though calls infrequently come
prior to April and May, they have
started earlier this year, indicating
demand for North Dakota men, ac-
cording to the engineering head,
who reports such calls from federal
state, and industrial projects, and
from concerns throughout North

ARRESTSAB0UT
DOUBLED SINCE
PROHIBITION
Anti Saloon League Admits
Number Has Increased
Nearly so Per Cent
BY LARRY BOARDMAN
NEA Service Writer

Washington, Mar. 23-The num-
Der Of arrests made by police
throughout the country has increas-
ed nearly SO percent since prohibi-
tion.
This is not statement by the
"wets." 1t is an admission byi the
Anti-Saloon League.
The league made a survey Of all
the arrests made in 100 representa-
tive cities, located in 81 states and
ranging in population from 5000 to
100000.
The survey showed that during
the three years preceding prohibit
tion-l917, 1913 and 19l9-the num-
Der of arrests made in these cities
was steadily decreasing.
1t showed that since prohibition
the number Of arrests has been rap
idly on the increase!
In 1917 there were a few more
than 100000 arrests for all causes.
In 1918 the number dropped to less
than 100000. In 1919 it dropped to
slightly more than 100000.
But in 1920, the first dry year,
the number of arrests increased to
Esarly $4,000. In 1921 it jumped
to more than 100000. In 1922 it

portunity for counteracting the spirit
the law, which has alarmed many
public men in its proportions. Under
the plan adopted, members of the
bar association will be drafted to de-
liver two addresses in each high
school before the close of the pre-
sent school year, the students to
participate in the arrangement of the
programs and to introduce the speak
ers. 1t is also proposed to invite
friends and parents to attend the
program. The first address is con-
templated to cover the necessity for
laws and the reasons why law.
should be obeyed; the second is to
deal with the same general subject
and to present plan for the better
cooperation of citizens generally
with officers to secure better law
enforcement.
The plan is to be supervised and
arranged by the section on law en-
Fargo is chairman, and one lawyer
in each county in the state will be
named to carry out the plans 1t is
emphatically denied in bar associa-
ton circles that the proposed plan is
an effort to influence the political
trend of the rising generation other
than TO assist in making students
law abiding citizens. The fundamen-
tai basis Of tho rule by law in the
nation, the necessity for sustaining
law if the government is to continue
to function in orderly manner and

it stood atsmore than 100000. AnG
the figure for 1924, estimated at the
same rate of increase, would be
more than 100000.
In other words, the number of ar
rests since prohibition has increased
from slightly more than 100000 in
1919, the last wet year, to more
than 100000 in the year just
passed-an increase of 100000.
Arrests for intoxication before
and after prohibition show the same
trend.
The number dropped from about
325,000 in 1917 to approximately
$4,000 in 1919.
Then it increased to an estimated
figure of nearly 100000 in 1924.
Asked to explain the figures
Wayne B. Wheeler, general counsel
of the Anti Saloon League, declared
that the increased total number OF
arrests does not mean an increase
in crime.
He also expressed satisfaction over
the number Of arrests for intoxica-
ton, stating that while there may
have been numerical increase the
proportion in comparison to the to-
tai number of arrests is smaller.
"In the license period before pro-
hibition," he said, ARRESTS for
drunkenness were 1875 of all ar
rests. In the dry years they have
only been 1873 per cent.
Increase in the total number of
arrests is due to automobile and
traffic causes, sanitary regulations
enforced school laws and host Of
municipal ordinances. These arrests
show we are more careful of the
public welfare, not that we are moro
criminal"
Wet leaders, however, declare the
figures only show that intoxication
is rapidly increasing while crime in
general is still more rapidly increas-
ing.
They admit that traffic and other
ordinances may have somewhat in
creased the total number of arrests
but not by 100000.

PORTEND
PROSPEROUS
\ BUSINESS
FOR S.A.
Ernest Brown, Banker,
Says There Is More Capt.
tai Here Than Ever Before.

With Southwest Texas and the en-
tire San Antonio trade territory thor
oughly drenched from the rains of the
last two weeks. this city is facing one
Of the most prosperous fall seasons in
its history.
San Antonio hanks are showing
large amounts in the surplus column,
plenty of money is available for legi-
innate investment. stockmen and farm
crs are assured of good feed crops for
the winter and the tone of business
generally is brighter than it has been
for years.
This optimistic view of the situa-
ton is voiced by Ernest L. Brown,
vice president of the Alamo National
Bank. and concurrcd in by other San
. Antonio bankers.
SURPLUS MONEY.
San Antonio has been on the up.
grade particularly during the last six
months and I can truthfully say that
I consider conditions here better than
they have been in years" Mr.. Brown
said. There is more surplus money
available in San Antonio banks than
at any time since have been in the
banking business"
Millions of dollars from Southwest
Texas. Mr.. Brown said, are loaned
out on call in the large eastern money
centers.
"Of course the recent rains which
have extended to every part of the San
Antonio trade territory have had their
Frightening effect" Mr.. Brown said.
"PrincipalIy they will assure the farm,
ers and stockmen Of a good supply
of winter feed stuffs. While this prod
uct. if sold wouldn't bring any great
amount of money. it is of inestimabls
value to tAe farmer and stockman.
They will be able to feed their stock,
which already is in good shape, and
carry it safely through the winter"
CROP OUTLOOK GOOD.
The rains also, Mr.. Brown said,
have put moisture into the ground,
thereby improving next years crop
prospects and have greatly helped the
farmer who is now growing truck.
Big investments of outside capital
made in San Antonio recently, Mr..
Brown says, also have done much to
improve conditions and with mora
capital available, both at home and
abroad. he can only see a continual.
ton Of the present prosperity.
