ford can come close to deciding the
best team of the year.
Navy was generally accepted as
the best team in the east, although
Lafayette did not lose game.
Notre Dame, Michigan and North
western ranked high in the middle
west.
The long regime of California on
the Pacific coast was ended and the
collapse was one of the most discuss
ed happening of the season.
There was no Red Grange, Ernie
Nevcrs or George Wilson running the
field and the best ball carrier Of

Frank Wickhorst, navy tackle ;
Herb Jocsting, Minnesota fullback;
Moon Baker, Northwestern quarter
back; Billy Kelly, Montana quarter
back and Morton Kaer, Southern
California back, were the most dis
cussed players Of the season.
Professional football finished its

Expects Better
Lettuce Price

Damage inflicted upon the lettuce
crop by the recent storm will in all
likelihood be offset by the better
prices that will be received from the
crop soon to be marketed, is the
opinion of Fred Nicolaus, expert

now in the valley for a few days.
"The colder weather that has fol
lowed the storm is exactly what the
growing lettuce needs. From all
that l have seen it looks like [. S.

BANK MADE A
$4,000 GAIN
DURING 1925
State Institution Also Saved
Money in Selling Bonds.
SOrlie Says

The Bank of North Dakota made
an operating profit of $155,0O0 during
1925. statement by Governor A. G..
Sorlie indicated today. "Out of that
amount $4,000 was charged out in
bad amounts which had accumulated
since the bank was started and Of
which only very small amount
had been contracted during the year
1926" the statement said. "This
leaves a net operating profit of $ll0,-
900. No allowance for interest on The
bonded indebtedness has been made
in this statement.
However. through the bank of
North Dakota we have succeeded in
selling S4.OO00.OO0 in state bonds in
1925. This amount includes two issues
of $2.0O0,000 each. The saving to the
state on each issue was 100000. The
amount saved is the difference be-
tween Az per cent bond and>a per
cent bond.
"The very lowest North Dakota
bonds had ever sold prior to 1925 was
s per cent. These bonds will average
20 years; that is the bonds run f~c",
~ to 80 years. This saving then,
would amount 20 one-half per cent
for 20 years. one per cen, for -
years or 10 per cent for one year.
fen per cent figured for one year
on $4,000,000 amounts to $4Ou,u0v.
"In addition to the saving to the
state we have established market
for our own bonds at home. among
our own bankers. These bankers
have, in many instances. made as
high as one-half per cen. on the bonds
which they bought; that is they sold
the bonds to net the buyer four per
cent. The standing market right
now for North Dakota bonds would
be 4.30. making a profit of 20 points

M0DIFIERS TO
DELAY THEIR
OWN HEARING
Will Give Senate Judiciary
Committee First Whack
at Testimony
SESSION OPENS APRIL S
Senator Bruce Links Subject
With the Next Presidcn.
tial Election

Washington, March 25.--t4D The
house unUAiicial committee for modi.
fication of the Volstead act will give
the senate judiciary Committee first
whack at testimony on prohibition
and will defer its own hearing set
for next Wednesday.
The committee will cooperate fully
wi,h the senate official body and in
addition has appointed spokes man to
present its views and those of mOdifi-
cation senators to the committee,
which will begin it's sessions on
April 5.
The spokesman is William II. Stay
ton, executive head of the Associa-
tion Against the Prohibition Act and
chairman of the joint legislative COM
mittce.
This action was decided upon ut a
conference last night Of 81 reprcsen-
tatives and eight senator's in favor
of modification, who met under the
craftsmanship Of Representative Hill,
Republican, Maryland. The repre-
sentatives, Mr.. Hill said. comprised
all but five members Of the unoffi-
cial modification committee Of the
house, Of which he is the head.
May Hold Hearings Later
70 When the senate committee con-
ciudes its hearing on April II the
house modiiicationis,.s RAY decide
TO hold their hearings, Mr.. Hill said,
in the belief that 1.-THE time has come
tn unite on one specific method for
modification Of the prohibition law
In the meantime, there is no indi-
cation that prohibition discussion in
and out Of congress is to lag in .;nti-
cipation OF an exhaustive exposition
ut the senate hearinp.
The subject was linked with the
next presidential election in II speech
in the senate yesterday by Senator
Bruce, Democrat. Maryland, one of
the vets. He suggested that the Dem
ocratic ticket in 1926 be led By some
one ''like Al Smith, Of New York or
Governor Richie Of Maryland. plcdg-
ed to see that conditions OF law oh
servancc, dcccncy and rcspcctability
are restored in the United States"
That the idea did not set we'll with
other Democrats was indicated by
negative gestures by some, including
Bcase Of South Carolina and Glass
Of Virginia, while the speaker was
hecklcd at times by Mcclellan OF Ten
nesscc and Nicely Of West Virginia.
Senator Bruce. who wis replying to
an address by Senator Mcclellan in
favor of prohibition, declared the
"law is absolutely uncnforceable"
and that the reason more liquor is
not made in homes is '.because it is
cheaper and easier to buy bootleg
liquor"

LARGER THAN
ANTICIPATED
Predicted Total Exceeds Mel
Ions First Estimate
BY 35,OOO.OOO

Washington. March 25.--R In
come tax collections for the first
quarter under the new revenue law
are now expected to reach $435, ,OO0,-
600 or within $4,000 900 of the col
lections year ago under the higher
rates.
The total predicted today at the
treasury. exceeds by $35. 900 900 the
first estimate Of Secretary Mellon on
the collections for this quarter un-
der the reduced tax rates.
The figures take into account on
lv the income tax collections but con-
siderable reductions are expected in
the miscellaneous tax collections
since the new law repealed many IF
these levies.
The increased returns despite the
lower rates was attributed by Secre-
tary Mellon today to the large pro-
fits last year and TO the stimulation
in business which he believed result
ed from the anticipation Of tax re-
duction.
