THREECITIES
HAVE DOPE ON
AUTO OWNERS
Min0t and Grand Forks Have
Copies of the Registrars
Information

Minot and Grand Forks, in addi-
tion to Bismarck. will be information
ccntcrs for persons seeking data on
automobiles this year.
Through an arrangement between
Fred b. Ingstad. state registrar of
automobiles, and the police chiefs Of
the two towns, the state will furnish
copies Of the registra tion data sup
piled by each person obtaining a H.
cense. This information, it is felt.
will be valuable in helping police to
establish the identity Of the owners
of abandoned automobiles, the names
of persons driving machines carrying
certain license tags and lin many other
ways.
incidentally it is expected to re-
lievc the pressure on the registrars
office caused by the receipt, during
the summer months, of numerous re-
quests for information regarding the
holders Of certain license numbers.
Another benefit, Ingstad said, will
be that sheriffs and police officers in
counties and towns close to Minot
and Grand Forks will be able to get
such information quicker and more
had to apply to the registration bu-
reau.
BY use of q special machine which
makes duplicates Of the information
filed by the bureau for its own rec
Ords, the registration data will be
!. complete in every detail and will be
listed in the numerical order of the
license tags issued.
As originally planned Fargo was to
have been a third information CEN

pay 1856 for the paper necessary to
supply them the information and since

VETS AND DRYS
HAVE0FFERED
FINAL BRIEFS
Senate Prohibition Committee
Plans to Take Up Re-
yiSed GOff Bill

Washington. May O.--(P)-Final
briefs have been filed by the vets
and drys with the senate prohibition
committee. the former demanding
thorough investigation of the Anti
saloon league and the latter cOn-
tending for legislation to reinforce
the Volstead act.
The committee meanwhile is plan
ming to take up tomorrow the revised
Goff bill, which cmbodies all Of the
proposals for tightening enforcement
machinery which its members and
Assistant Secretary Andrews. have
been able TO agree on.
Six bills recommended by General
Andrews form the basis of the revis-
cd Goff measure. with the vigorously
controverted provision in one Of them
for search .of dwellings on suspicion
Of liquor manufacture modified to
"require evidence Of such produc-
tion "for sale or other unlawful dis
position" This and other alterations
were approved by General Andrews,
who said he wanted it made clear
that the treasury's objective was to
wipe out commercial distilling rather
than interfere with small stills pro-
ducing liquor for strictly home con-
sumption.

FARM RELIEF
DEBATE WILL
END TONIGHT
House Leaders Hope to Bring
Question TO a Vote BE.
fore End of Week
OUTCOME is UNCERTAIN
Some Think Haugen Measure
and Tincher Bill Will
Kill Each Other
OUTCOME is UNCERTAIN

+ Washington, May TO- LR -Dcspitc
the extension Of general debate Oh
the three surplus crop bills, house
leaders were hopeful today that they
could be brought to vote before the
end Of the week.
Clamor Of members for time to
speak on the measures caused the add
dition Of today's sessions to the time
allotted for general debate. This in
itself illustrated the sharp differ
ences of opinion which apparently
have become more pronounced rather
than less divergent as the debate has
proceeded. but the leaders were hope
full that the measures could be taken
up for amendment tomorrow.
Haugcn Bill Attacked
One of the principal lines Of at
tack on the Haugcn price stabiliza-
ton measure, which is first in line
for such considerations will be an
effort to eliminate the provision for
a $375,O00,00O appropriation designed
to finance the federal aid machinery
it would set up, pending application
Of price stabilization fees on basic
commodities two years after it's cf-
fecYlvc day.
Some members think it likely that
the Haugen measure and the Tinche +
credit bill will "kill each other in
the parliamentary scramble growing
out of the peculiar status of the pro-
posals, and that the latter, which has
the backing Of Secretary Jardinc, may
then be called up under a special
rule.
The Situation
AS it stands, the Haugcn bill is
technically "before the house" and
the Tinchcr measure. with the Cur
tis-Axwclltcommosaits marketing bill.
is in the position of substitute pro-
posal. Thus, the Tinchcr and the
Curtis-Aswcll bills must be voted up
on first. The latter. members predict.
will be defeated by Repub
lcan and IA few Democratic
votes; then the Haugcn camp with
Democratic support will reject the
Tincher bill, and supporters of the
latter, aided by Democrats, will, in
turn, vote down the Haugen measure.

been answered. In order to avoid
confusion between the authorities and
the strikers, the permits were re-
called.

A WORLD COURT LESSON.
NO GOOD NEWS.
NO KNIVES. PISTOLS. BOMBS.
SAkLATvALA, THE FARSEE.
By ARTHUR BRISBANE
(COpvright. 1921

Another lesson for the world court
idea. Senator Mckinley who favored
putting this country into the world
court, league of nations back door,
was defeated for denomination in
Illinois by the biggest vote ever cast
at primary in that state. Senator
Watson of Indiana, also Republican.
who voted against the world court,
now carries Indiana, in the states
biggest republican victory.
The people want Coolidge, but don't
want the world court. And they knew
that. before these semi revolutionary
troubles in Britain and before Kemal.
Of the Turks, invited Italy and the
whole world to come on and fight.
Uncle Sam was to have accepted
the mandate for Turkey. under the
League of Nations, Woodrow Wilson
scheme, you remember.
No one knows what will come of
Eur0pe's trouble, or what kind of
world court might be the outcome.
But we do know that the court would
be ten to one against US, in the sin
.cere conviction. that whatever hap
pened, we ought to pay the bill. And

may thank Secretary Work for his ef-

The west feels that Calvin Coolidge

such an advance agent as Mr.. Work,
Woodrow Wilson would have missed
