FRANCE MAY
CHANGE us.
AMBASSADORS
Senator Victor Henry Beren
ger May BE Chosen to-
Succeed DaeSchner

Paris, Oct 30.-tP---lt is learned
on high authority that Senator Vie
tor Henry Berenger will be appoint
ed shortly to succeed Emile Daesch-
ner as French ambassador to the
United States.
The decision Of the government to
change ambassadors in Washington
is closely related to the American debt
funding negotiation.
Foreign Minister BRAND has i'm
pressed upon Premier Painieve and
others of his colleagues in the cab
met that another effort should DE
made to settle the debt.
Senator Berenger is regarded as the
best man available to bring this
about. His financial authority in
France. his intimate acquaintance
with the subject and the ideas he de-
rived from his recent experiences in
Washington as member of the Call
laux debt mission have persuaded the
government that, if something more
is to be done, he is the man to do it.

FINANCES OF
STATE BETTER
THAN USUAL
No Need to Borrow Money
For State Institutions This
Year, Steen Says

Indications are that the state of
North Dakota will pass through 1925
without borrowing money for the
operation Of state institutions, State
Auditor John Steen said today.
Books in the auditors office show
balance of almost 100000 on hand.
Outstanding checks will considerably
reduce this amount but it is apparent
that the states share of tax collec-
tions made by the counties during
October will be on hand in sufficient
time to meet all demands on the
state treasury, Steen said.
Increased tax collections and a
more careful allotment of funds from
the state general fund are the chief
reasons why the state has been able
to get through without borrowing
money as it has been forced to do
every fall in it's recent history, Steen
said.
In the past the states general fund
usually became depleted between Oct
ober Is and November l and the state
found it necessary to either defer
payment of outstanding bills or else
borrow money to meet it's operating
needs. The usual practice was to
have the various state institutions
borrow the money for their own use.
They later were reimbursed from the
general fund when it was replenished
by tax collections and the legislature
| usually made an allowance to pay
the interest on the borrowed money.
Tax Collections Increasing
With prosperity the general rule,
tax collections in most counties have
been much better than average, ad-
vance reports to the state auditor
and state treasurer show, and this
money should begin to arrive within
the next few days as county auditors
and trcasurers are required to settle
with the state monthly. State Off
cials estimate the state will have less
unpaid taxes at the end of the sec
ond tax-paying period in March than
ever before because farmers have evil
denced that they have the money
with which to pay them.

SOFIA NEWSPAPERS CLAIM
GREEKS. DESTROYED PROPERTY

Sofia, Bulgaria, Oct. 3O.-LF)--The
Sofia newspapers print columns Of
"eye witness" stories today charging
that the withdrawal of the Greek
troops from Bulgarian soil was mark
ed by scenes of pillage and destruc-
tion. A.
According to these accounts the
Greeks took away food and clothing,
even furniture and household uten-
sils, in some cases leaving behind
them only the bare walls Of the
homes they had looted. 4
At the foreign office it is declared
Bulgaria will insist before the League
of Nations council that Greece
make reparation not only for the
lives lost-most of these, it is al
leped being civilians-but also for
all property destroyed or stolen.
With this end in view the allied
military attaches who supervised the
evacuation were asked to take care
full note of the activities of the de-
parting Greeks.

RATE HEARING
AT FARGO HAS
COME TO CLOSE
Hearing on Lignite Coal Rates
Will BE Opened at Bis
marck, November 2

Fargo, n. d., Oct. 3O.-(P) i he
series Of rate hearings which has
been under way continuously since
October 2l before Harris Fleming, eX-
aminer for the interstate commerce
commission, in the Fargo federal
building were concluded Yesterday
with the end Of the hearing in whic
Fargo has attacked the rates on BIZ
luminous coal from the head of the
lakes to this city.
Mr.. Fleming now goes to Bismarck
where, on November 2, he will open
the hearing in which the rates on lig-
mite coal from the North Dakota mines
to eastern North Dakota. South Da-
kota and Minnesota are in contro-
Versy.
The railroads are demanding an in
crease in the Ignite rates and the
hearing is to determine whether the
proposed increase is just and rea-
sonable. Coal mine operators, the
state railroad commission, and many
other interests, including the city of
Fargo through its traffic department
of the commercial club, are united
in opposing the increase.
Grain Rate Hearings Next
Afte concluding the Ignite hearing,
Mr.. Fleming will return to Fargo and
open the consolidated grain rate
hearings here November lS.
The grain rate hearing is consid-
cred one of the most important to be
heard in the Northwest in recent
years. The railroads have proposed
an increase in rates on grain and
grain products from this territory to
the big grain terminals in Mime
sofa.
On the other. hand the North Da-
kota Farmers Elevator ociation
the Fargo Commercial Club. and other
interests representing the grain
shippers, have asked for decrease

Observation-Disclosures Bill

Representative Reid, Mitch
ellis Counsel, Declares
Charges too Vague

Washington, Oct. 0.-P)-Having
lost every preliminary effort to halt
the court martial proceedings against
him, Col. VIM. Mitchell today pleaded
not guilty of the charges against
him and Informed the court he was
| ready to stand trial.
His plea was entered and the trial
actually got under way after the
court had rejected the last of long
list of objections. based on the fail
ure of the prosecution to furnish "a
bill of particulars" of the charges
against Colonel MITCHELL
The air officer stood. smiling. to
answer the charges. He said mot
guilty as each of the charges and
specifications were called in turn by
the prosecuting officer.
Accuracy of Charge Not Denied
The plea did not deny the accuracy
of the charge that the colonel had,
in his San Antonio statement, ac-
cused his supcriors of criminal and
almost reasonable conduct in admin
istering the air services Of the gov
ernment. but merely comprised de-
NAL that this accusation constituted
conduct in violation of good order
and discipline, as declared in the
charge.
The request for a bill of particu-
lars was thrown out by the court
after heated argument between
counsel, in which Representative Reid
of Illinois, representing Mitchell, de-
clared the charges as worded by the
war department were '.too vague"
The courts law officer held that
since all the charges were set out in
the specifications already filed the
request of the defense should be de-
MED. This finding the court accept
ed without objection from any mem
Der.
Reccsscs to Monday
Little progress on the trial itself
was made at today's session. After
the prosecution had finished reading
from the court manual long list of
regulations by which the proceedings
are to be governed, the court recessed
until Monday to permit attorneys for
the prosecution and defense to make
preliminary examination of witnesses
who had arrived from Texas.

question of whether Colonel VIM.
Mitchell's defense counsel will ask
his court-martal board to subpoena
the president was taken under advise
ment today by Representative Reid
Of Illinois, Col. Mitchell's counsel.
No subpoena can be issued before
the court convenes Monday.
The defense also is considering the
advisability of seeking subpoena
for Secretary Of War Davis, since
Col. MitchelPs counsel contends that
the war secretary, as well as the
president, is the accuser in the trial
of the air officer.
Regardless of the decision Of the
defense in the matter of subpocnacs,
the court martial, in the opinion of
Army legal officers, probably will re-
fuse a presidential subpoena.
Precedent, they said, is all against
such course.

Right Honorable Arthur Meighcn,

over his progressive opponent,

of Portage La Prairie after q
hard fight.

Ottawa. Ont, Oct. 3O.--iP-Indi-
cations today were that no party had
received working majority in the
house of commons by yesterdays gen

now control the rcins Of government,
were overthrown. The conservatives,
campaigning for protective tariff,
won more seats than any other party.
Incomplete returns indicated that

the conservatives party had defeated
half the members of Premier w.

had made great inroads into the
seats of the liberals and progressives
throughout the dominion. Premier
King, who had urged moderate tar

his own constituency. Seven Of his
ministers also were beaten.
