panies in an industry, and through conference to determine what part la bor organizations and employees as- sociatiOns can best take in such a plan
 The concluding chapter of the re- port says: This particular plan has had so much publicity and has been copied so widely that it presents definitely a challenge to the trade union movement; it must be consid- cred by the unions on it's merits, and not ruthlessly condemned as their natural enemy. The United Mine Workers openly and bitterly denounce the Rockefeller plan. The Colorado Fuel and Iron Company, in the words of it's general manager, sees numer- ous good reasons for not signing d contract with the union. No fruit full discussion between these two g, cups would be possible unless each approaches it with the will not to press the solution of it's own group for acceptance, but rather to think first of the needs of the men in the mines and then to work out the agree ment which will best meet those hu- man needs. From this would fol- low, we are confident, a spirit and method of managing the industry which would better serve also the public interest"
 The report, entitled "Employes' Representation in Coal Mines," was prepared by Ben M. Selekman of the Sage Foundations Department of h. dustrial Studies, and Miss Van Kleeck both of whom spent considerable time in the many mines and camps of the Colorado Fuel and Iron Com pany, and had repeated conferences with individual miners, groups of miners, mine foremen, superintend- ents, officials of the company, and John D. Rockefeller, IT,, the princi- pal stockholder. The operatio of the industrial representation plan in the steel mills of the Colorado Fuel and Iron company was made the sub- ject of separate investigation by the Foundation, and the. report of this study, which is to be issued very shortly, shows that the company has been in advance of other companies in the steel industry in it's dealings with employees.
 The investigation of the Rockefel- Ter plan for giving wage-earners a share in management was undertak- en by the Russell Sage Foundation on the suggestion of group of engin- eers, social workers, government of ficials, employers, and representa- tives of labor, whose advice had been sought as to how the Foundation could most effectively contribute to- ward the improvement of human re- latiOnship in industry.

SLASH NORMAL
SCHOOL FUNDS
IN MEASURES
House of Representatives
Cuts Money from Normal
School Appropriations
CAUSE SHARP DEBATE
Difference Between Factions
in the House Breaks Out
During Debate

Appropriations for two norma
schools recommended by the state
budget board were slashed material
ly by the house of representatives
meeting in committee of the whole
yesterday afternoon, and will prob
ably be passed by the house today
in the reduced form.
The appropriation of $139,220 rec
commended for the Mayville Norma
school was reduced to $129,020 anc
the budget of $153,25O recommended
for the Dickinson normal was cut
to $15O65O.
The chief cuts in the Mayville
normal budget were $4,000 loppec
off the $1,000 recommended for fac
ulty salaries and reduction of the
allowance for payment to the May
vile school board for practice school
work from $4,000 to $4,000. Al
Dickinson the main cut involved is
$4,000 off the $4,000 recommended
for faculty expense which includes
in this case the practice school pay
ments.
There was warm row over the
cuts in the Mayville appropriation
in the course of which the Trail
county members led by, Rep. G. l.
Elken claimed that the cut in the
practice school allowance had beer
made as result of the misquotine
of President Swain of Mayville Nor
NAL by Rep. Bubel, Nonpartisan
member of the committee.
Bubel told the committee that
President Swain had admitted to hin
thta he could get along with $4,000
for the practice school work, but
Mr.. Elken read telegram from the
normal school head in which he de-
clared the $4,000 was the minimum
which would be sufficient. Bubel
stuck to his version of the CONVEX
station, and row developed which
followed party. lines to large ex-
tent.

S0RLIE WOULD
BAN ANY NEW
BONDS OF n. D.
Governor Is Against Author
iZatiOn of Issue for the
Closed Bank
STANDS FOR ECONOMY
Governor Reiterates His De-
mand That Legislature
Keep Down Expenses

Governor A. G.. Sorlie today
again voiced his demand for
economy in the present ses-
sion of the legislature. He is
opposed to any bond issues on
the state as a whole. being
provided at this session of the
legislature.
The Governors attitude
was declared in connection
with reports that a bond is
sue for the benefit of deposit
tors of closed banks would be
asked.
Bond issues for the benefit
of the state industries, such
as the Grand Forks mill, are
not included in the Cover
nor's stand against bond is
sues, he classing the indus
tries as being in the regular
course of our business"
1t became known today that the
Governor had been approached on
the subject of backing measure
providing for a constitutional amend
ment authorizing a bond issue for
the reimbursement of depositors of
closed banks, and that he had at
tempted to discourage such move
ment.
The attitude of the Governor, it is
understood, is based upon the stand
he has taken for rigid economy be-
ing practiced in the legislature. He
is in favor of any measures that can
be we'll taken for the alleviation of
the depositors of closed banks, or
for the better conservation of the
assets of closed banks, it is known.
1t was his desire to aid the deposit
tors in a quick realization Of assets
of closed banks that caused him to
recommend to the legislature that
it investigate the feasibility Of a
scheme whereby the Bank of North
Dakota would take over assets of
closed banks and Immediately make
available substantial dividend to
the depositors.
Damper on Movement
The attitude of the Governor has
put damper upon the efforts of
those to change the whole system
of handling closed banks. 1t was
learned yesterday that bill was
being drawn providing for special
election next May on constitutional
amendment providing for bond
issue of $1o,O00,O0O to aid in reim-
bursting depostors of closed banks,
provide that the Bank of North Da
kota take over all assets of closed
banks and the Guaranty Fund Com
mission and place the state back of
the guarantee of bank deposits. in
stead of building up fund from as
sessments on closed banks.
Such bill probably will be pre-
sented within the next several days,
unless the attitude of the Governor
or the Nonpartisan League leaders
prevents.

On the verge OF nervous break
down and with his hair turning gray
from worry, he said. Stecher said he
has returned from Germany 10 days
ago and that he had seen Bergdoll
at Eberbach few days before sail
ing for this country. He declared
he had repeatedly urged the mil
lionaire fugitive to return to the
United States and "face the music"
and that dispute over this subject
had caused them to separate two and
a half years ago.
Tells Of Escape
Stecher related details of his flight
at the wheel of Bergdoll's racing
automobile. which started here in
May 1920, and took the two men half
way across the continent and into
Canada, where they sailed from Que
bee for England. Despite Stecher's
denial some federal officials express
ed belief that his return was in the
nature of a "feeler" for ,Bergdoll,
who was said t9 have wanted to sur
render for sometime. Mrs. Emma c.
Bergdoll. mother of the fugitive, said
he had promised to come back "be-
fore the last election" but now said
she did not know when he would
return, if ever. Mrs. Bergdoll add
ed that Grover was living in Eber-
bach.

creased Appropriations
Are Accepted

ance of State Capitol
Grounds Is Reduced

The tendency of the North Dakota
legislature to slash appropriations
! was emphatically shown in the State
Senate late yesterday, when reports
of the appropriations committee
slashing State Budget items was ac-
cepted in several instances.
Twelve thousand dollars was cut
from the appropriation of $124,OOO
for maintenance of the state capitol
$4,000 from the general mainten-
ance fund and $4,000 from the fund
to care for the grounds-without OBJ
lection, on committee report. The
appropriation recommended for the
State Historical Society was prompt
ly cut from $27,75O to $21, $50 for
the next biennium. Senate bill No.
%, appropriating funds for the state
mine inspection department for two
years., was cut from $12,40O to $1O,-
200. Items cut from the appropriat-
ion included $1,000 for the purchase
of fire rescue apparatus and equip
ment and $500 for fire emergencies.
The bill appropriating $4,000 to the
Great Lakes-St. Lawrence Tidewater
Association, for use in furthering
the fight for the lakes to-sea pro-
ject, was indefinitely postponed on
recommendation of the appropria-
tions committee, without debate. This
item had been recommended by the
State Budget board.
For Hospital
The house resolution memorable
ing General Frank T. Hines, head
of the United States Veterans Bur-
eau and, chairman of its hospital
committee, to favor location of a
2O0-bed hospital at Fargo, North Da-
kota, went through the Senate under
suspension of rules. Senator H. j.
Rusch, Fargo, stating that the comp
cittee named to examine sites for
hospitals had recommended Fargo,
said the added weight of the legis-
lature was needed quickly to, help
secure hospital foreNorth Dakota.
Senator Dave Hamilton, seconding
the motion, said that many veter-
ans who were gassed in France are
now beginning to show effects, the
gas bringing on tuberculosis. United
States Hospitals are crowded, he
said, and there is urgent need for
such hospital as is proposed in
Fargo.
The Senate indulged in bit of
by-play at the expense of the Sena-
tor from Cass county. Senator Whit
man moved to amend the resolution
to insert the word "Grand Forks" in
place Of "Fargo," and Senator. Fleck-
ton moved by suggesting the hospi-.
tai be located at Ft. Lincoln, near
Bismarck. Senator Dell Patterson of
Renville county rose to ask "Why
Not Minot" and Senator Benson sug-,
gested Dunseith. Their remarks
were barred from the journal, the
official record of the Senate.
The Senate had no bills before it
for final action today.
