ShelE,ShOckd War Veteran
 Forces Way Into Office

Albany. N. Y, Jan. 27 P--.The late arrival Of Governor Smith at the executive offices In the capitol today is believed by officials Of the executive department to have saved him from attack by a shell-shocked war veteran, seeking payment of his bonus, who penetrated Into the governors private office before being stopped by attaches Of the executive.

 He wanted to see the governor and quickly, he said.
 Certainly" Mir. Graves replied, he Is right down here" and led the man down a secret stairway to the offices of the state prison depart mcnt. on the floor below. In the meantime other attaches of the ex' ncutive offices had gotten in toucl with the state hospital department and when Graves and the intruder reached the prison department of fees, they were met by a docto' from the hospital commission, wht took charge of the man.
 Passing through the large recep ton room, the man badly frightenec visitors who were viewing painting of former governors there. Mir Graves explained that he had beel 8 frequent visitor 10 the executiv' offices. but each time previous hal been referred to military authoritie for adjustment of his complaint.

Editorial Comment
Ignoring the Stop Signs
minneapolis JUurnal)

When people refuse to obey laws enacted for their
own safety and protection, what is to be done about
It! The dilemma appears in the case of the rail-
way crossing law passed by the last legislature.
Under it several hundred dangerous highway cross
ings over railway tracks have been marked with
prominent stop" signs
Under the law it is required that every vehicle no
matter what. come to a full stop before crossing
the railway tracks at these marked crossings In
fact, few observe the signal BUS operators have
been doing SO under the wise rules made by their
employers, long before the stop signs were placed
The buses stop at all rail crossings whether marked
or not Private car owners, however, seem to pay
little attention to the signs. Reports from many
localities say it is the exception when q car stops
and many whir by without even slackening speed.
Sheriffs have been notified, and it is their duty
to enforce the law. In few cases they are at
tempting to do it. The very general breach Of this
law is discouraging however. Evidently, it will
take something more than big yellow sign to make
the average motorist take heed to his own safety
The state safety conference to be convened soon by
Governor Christensen may well give this problem
careful study.
Ignoring the official stop signs might be made
more serious offense than is now if classed under
the head Of attempted suicide

A Good Suggestion

"Once upon tin,c" all fairy stories begin,
all one had to do t, learn the correct time was to
step to the telephone and ask the operator duty
! at the exchange who checrfully supplied the de-
sired information. Then, because the supplying of
!: this information was delaying the handling OF
other telephone calls, the company issued an order
prohibiting it,
After that the Western Union Telegraph company
promptly supplied the inquring public information
concerning the correct time, until now officials have
issued order similar to that put into effect prevI-
olsy by the telephone company, claiming that this
service causes delay in receiving and dispatching
kilograms via telephone.
The suggestion has been made that, inasmuch as
these two companies have will soon cease giving
out the correct time, the whistle at the electric
plant be utilized to inform the people of Bismarck
the time at least twice day, whereby they
may set their clocks and watches Alright.
One blast If the whistle could be sounded prompt
~ at Z or o'clock each morning and similar sig
nal be given at o'clock each evening. In
order to be of real value, however, it would be nec-
cssary for the person in charge Of the whistle ~
have Il Western Union clock in sight, rather than
to depend any ordinary timepiece, and that the
whistle be sounded exactly on the minute.
