Value of Bombing.

Rear Admiral Joseph Strauss de-
clared air warfare was not important
enough to warrant a separate depart
ment. He said it might be possible
to sink a battleship with an aerial
bomb but added that zone man with
a sledge hammer might accomplish
the same result.
Although three 2,000-pound bombs
were exploded within a few feet of
the side of the battleship Washing
ton, recently sunk off the Virginia
capes, he asserted and two 400-pound
bombs also exploded near the vessel,
the ship after four days Of such bonn
bardment was eventually sunk by
gunfire.

CABINET TENDER
DENIED BY CAREY
Reports Agricultural Confer
ence Has Finished, at
Least for Present.

Robert d. Carey, former Governor
Of Wyoming and chairman or the
Presidents agricultural conference,
who has made two preliminary re-
ports containing recommendations for
legislation to relieve the farmers, was
in conference with the President
again today. He said afterward that
he had submitted to the Executive a
report from the conference which VIII
be made public Sunday, and which
contains recommendations regarding
the administration of the Agriculture
Department.
Chairman Carey intimated that this
report will not recommend any legls-
Iation. He said he does not think 1t
will be necessary to make readJust-
nlent OF the administration of the de-
partment properly to meet the Sltua-
rion. He said also that this viii,
temporarily at least, conclude the
work Of the conference, and that its
members are preparing to return to
their homes to remain until 1t is de-
cided that they shall again meet.
Gov. Carey has been prominently
mentioned as the possible successor
of Howard NJ Gore as Secretary OF
Agriculture. He stated today when
asked regarding these rumors that
the matter had never been broached
to him by President Coolidge.
Arrangements have been made at
the White House for the President
formally to receive Emile Daeschner,
the newly appointed Ambassador from
France The successor to Jules Jus
serand will present TO President Cool
idge his letters OF credence and eX-
change Fluctuations.
Debt Farley Expected.
Since the arrival of the Amhassa-
dor-designate in Washington a gen
eral feeling has gained headway that
ne soon will begin discussions here
on the subject of the French war
debt. In some quarters the state
ment made today by Louis Dubois in
the French Chamber OF Deputies that
he awaited "confdentlB the reply of
the United States" was interpreted as
giving color to that possibility.
However, it was said fatty by high
officials today that NJ. Daeschner has
not yet mentioned the debt question.
nor is he expected to do so until he
actually takes over his post after his
reception by President Coolidge Fri
day.
The French government had been
informed before NJ Daeschner sailed
for the United States that the Glenn
entel memorandum had been found
unacceptable by the Washington
Government as a basis for a discus
sion of debt funding. In the light of
this fact, il is regarded as more than
possible that Premier Herriot, FL
nance Minister Clementel and NJ
Daeschner thoroughly surveyed the
situation during their conference in
Paris.

N. d. Ranks High in
Health Registration

North Dakota's standing among
the states in what is known as the
vital statistics registration area is
among the best. according to fig
ures issued by the Department of
Commerce at Washington.
North Dakota was added to the
registration area in 1924 and is one
of the last states to be admitted. All
states where 80 per cent Of the
births and deaths are recorded and
which have centralized system Of
recording vital statistics are eligi-
Bile.
All but Is states are included in
the list of the department and ii .of
these are on probation. They are
Idaho, Colorado, New Mexico, Okla
homa, Texas, Missouri, Arkansas,
Louisiana, Tennessee, Alabama and
Georgia.
Two states, Nevada and South Da-
kota. are listed as unsatisfactory be-
cause they do not meet the require
ments of the department in register
ing vital statistics and because their
laws on the subject are such that
adequate registration practically Is
impossible. :,
In the states now on probation
good laws are in effect, but they
have not yet been effective enough
to bring birth and death registra-
tions to the required 80 per cent.

REDUCTION IN STATE RAIL FREIGHT
RATES WILL BE SOUGHT AT CHICAGO
North Dakota Railroad Commission Expert Sees Downward
Revision in Commodity Rates to State Points

Hearing by the state railroad

North Dakota railroads on both car
load and less-than- carioad ship
ments probably will be postponed
until after the hearing by the Inter
state Commerce Commission of pro
posed changes in interstate rates.
which will open Sept. at Chicago.
The proposed investigation into
rates between various North Dakota
points was first publicly proposed
by the railroad board late in June.
and advices have been received by
that body that various business men
and organizations in Fargo. James
town, Grand Forks and other cities
will be present when evidence on the
subject is taken. Each city is cX-
pcctrf to ask some changes in pres
emit rates which il feels will benefit
! it and improve its commercial posi-
ton.

about Il general rate reduction. i, is

vision will be possible in some

Until :: new Law, passed by the

rates were required to be the same
for equal distances. The result, Hen
bricks said, was that points where
the traffic was heavy were forced
where the traffic was light. The
new law permits the board to adjust
rates with "A view to meeting local
conditions and in compliance with
the theory that where Il large volume
of business is handled the cost o;
moving any single item is reduced.
Conditions
Traffic conditions throughout the
entire state will be reviewed by the
board at the hearing and an effort
made to remedy the evils which the
old standard rate law was accused
Of having caused.
In statement by Frank Milhollan
chairman Of the state railroad board
it is explained that the railroad:
filed their applications for rate in
creases following the passage by
congress Of the Goldsmith resolu
ton in which agriculture was de
clared to be the basic industry o.
the country and which directed the
