Remarkable improvement made in
Bismarck within the last dozen
years was reviewed for members of
the Association of Commerce, in an
nual banquet at the Elks Hall last
night. by Judge l.. J. Palda of Minot
Giving the view of Il resident Of an
other city, Judge Palda found much
worthy of compliment in Bismarck.
When he first saw Bismarck,
Judge Palda said. it had unpaved
streets, the statchouse was far out
into the country. there were many
old buildings and Bismarck had the
air of a country town. Now. he said,
organized, and growing along proper
lines
No small measure of success for
the city was attributed to the COM
mercial organizations of the city by
Judge Palda, who declared that
whole hearted cooperation of citizens
in the Association of Commerce is
necessary if Bismarck is to continue
to forge ahead as she has in the
last decade. His home city of Minot,
he said, is confident Of the future.
but it could not have this confidence
were it not for the team work Of
citizens accomplished through the
Association of Commerce. Judge
Palda especially complimented Bis
marck on adopting zOning plan.

Paris, Jan. 13.--(By the A. PD-
Representatives of the United States
for the first time since Americas S
failure to ratify the Versailles trea-
ty are about to sign an inter-allied
agreement, the subject of which is
to fix and divide German reparation
payments.
Instead of observers, the Ameri-
cans now become active participants
in the settlement of the situation
arising out of the peace of Versailles;
that is considered here to be the
most important result attained at
the inter-allied financial conference
which is due to close soon. The
cooperation of the United States is
regarded particularly in French
circles as constituting new and i'm
portant fact which may have weighty
consequences in the future, both
morally and materially. the more so
as one of the negotiators, Ambassa-
dor Kellogg, will be called on March
to assume direction of Americas S

The court OF review of the Pro-

There's Action
In Third House
If No Other

The first legislative rumpus
started this morning in the
Third House.
A Third House caucus has
been issued for 10 a. M. by
House employees. Nose Rosen-
sweig. speaker Of the Third House
two years ago, refused to re-
cogniZe the call. and was sup
ported in caucus by some Senate
employees.
After argument over the or
ganizatiOn, the members were
convinced they couldn't have
legal meeting this morning un-
less the speaker called it, so the
caucus adjourned until late to-
day.
ut was rumored that those sup
porting Nose for reelection
charged "frame up'' against
him, and planned to serve a.
court injunction against the or
ganization meeting being held.

A. B. H0UG.HT0N
IS OFFERED
LONDON POST
Ambassador to Germany to
Succeed Kellogg at the
Court of St. James ,

Washington, Jan. l3.-AlonZO B
Houghton, ambassador to Germany
has been virtually decided upon as
ambassador to Great Britain to sue
ceed Frank B. Kellogg.
Cablegrams have been exchanged
between Washington and Berlin and
Mr.. .Houghton has indicated will
ingness to accept the post at the
Court of st. James, which will be-
sumes duties of Secretary of State.
Mr. Houghton has attended many
of the conferences in European
capitals, made necessary in the work
of rehabilitation, and has first hand
knowledge of almost every problem
in which this country has an inter-
est. He is 81 years old and was
born in Cambridge, Massachusetts,.
Before entering Congress Mr.. Hough-
ton was engaged in the business Of
glass manufacture at Corning, New
York, and was interested in other
industries. He attended universi-
ties both in Paris and Berlin.
The selection Of new Ambassador
to London, so soon after the promo
tion of Mr.. Kellogg was announced,
would be, in line with the policy Mr..
Coolidge has been following Of
clearing up such matters at the
earliest possible moment.
No announcement of selection is
expected Immediately, however, and
it still is possible that the choice
may fall somewhere else.
Except for Secretary Hughes and
Secretary Gore, who leaves the Ag-
riculture Department March to
become Governor of West Virginia,
no changes are expected to take
place on that date in the cabinet.
Secretary Davis, at the request of
President Coolidge, has withdrawn
his resignation.
The statement was authorized to-
day at the White House that there
is no substance to reports that the
change in the secretaries would lead
to any modification of the foreign
policies held by Mr.. Hughes.
The non-recognition policy toward
Russia, always strongly advocated
by Mr.. Hughes, will remain unchan-
ged SO long as conditions remain as
they are.
Mr.. Houghton was. in Bismarck
last fall during the presidential
campaign and met many local people.

OF NEW BRIBE
$4,000 Agreed Upon For Par
don For Convicted Banker,
Attorneys Charge Says
CUSTER is STARTED
Acknowledgement Begins Ac-
ton to Remove the Bank
Commissioner

Topeka, Kan, Jan. 13.-(By the
A. PA new sensation, involving
the alleged solicitation Of money by
state official for pardon, broke
in Kansas this morning engulfing
Carl J. Peterson, state bank COM
missioner. friend and political ad-
wiser Of former Governor Jonathan
NJ Davis who. with his son, Isl
charged with accepting bribe for
extension of executive clemency
Custer proceedings will be nstitu-
ed Immediately against Peterson, it
was announced by Attorney-Gener
c. B. Griffith, who yesterday de-
manded that Peterson resign. Peter
spn refused.
The bank commissioner is charged
in an affidavit sworn to by A. l..
Oswald, young attorney of Hutchin-
son, Kansas, with having asked
$4,000 for parole for Walter
Grundy, convicted Hutchinson bank
er, and later agreeing to accept
$2,50O for pardon.
The affidavit brings former Gov
ernor Davis into the case as the
one who took Oswald to Peterson
when Oswald was seeking clemency
for Grundy.
Changed Attitude
At this meeting with Davis, the
affidavit states, the Governor first
told Oswald there was absolutely
no chance in the world" for favor
able action in the Grundy case. The
affidavit continues:
IL then said, well. then suppose
the only way open to Grundy is the
Peterson route
"At this point the Governor, whose
manner had been very brusque aad
crusty, Immediately changed. He
arose, took me by the arm and led
me to Peterson's office, giving
knock. Peterson drew the curtain
aside, saw it was the Governor and
admitted US.
"'This is Oswald the Governor
stid to Peterson, and thereupon
left"
Oswald relates in the affidavit
he saw Peterson later that day and
that the bank commissioner told him
Grundy could get a parole for $4,000.
The attorney said he was $50
astpunded" he confided in John H.
Rhodes, formerly an Assistant Kan
sas attorney general, and asked for
advice. 1t was decided to lay the
matter before the Attorney General,
Oswald says.
The affidavit alleges further ne
gotiations were conducted with Pet
erson when it was agreed $4,000
would be accepted for pardon for
Grundy. Through telephone con-
nections witnesses listened to the
conversations, Oswald states. He re-
lates he visited Governor Davis at
the executive mansion and says Pet
erson agreed to payment Of $4,000
to which, according to the affidavit,
the Governor replied II don't care
anything about that. Peterson is
an attorney and that is all up to
him."
Peterson announced he would fight
the custer proceedings, denying
charges made by Oswald, who, he
asserted, had proposed to advance
money to free Grundy, but that he
had refused to participate in such a
deal.
Davis, in a statement, said he had |
told Oswald of his determination
not TO extend clemency to Grundy.
"Rhe statement he makes that l !
led him to Peterson is correct, pos
sibly, so far as introducing him to !
Peterson is cOncerned but not to
make deal for a pardon, "said the
former Governor"

Jazz dancing to the tune Of wall
