Men From Practically Every
American Division

Fargo, N. D., May 3l.-Thc most

ticaily every American division in
the last war and its members now
live in all parts of our state.
In its efforts to properly adver-
tisc the state of North Dakota at
national conventions, continued Mr.
Fitch, the state department of the
American Legion realized that "a
band or some musical organization
was absolutely necessary TO repre-
sent the North Dakota department at
national gatherings, and with that
thought IN mind the state officers
Of the American Legion of this state,
through its 1913 separate posts COM
plctcd the organization OF a band OF
80 pieces, so this department could
be represented for the first time
by state band at the national CON
vention at st. Paul in 1924. Their
first effort was SO successful ana
the delegates from North Dakota to
the convention ut St. Paul were so
well pleased with the showing made
that Immediately after their return
home Il campaign was started among
the various posts OF the state TO
raise the necessary finances to prop
crly equip and send the band to the
next national convention which was
to be held at Omaha.
Exhibit at Philadelphia
Last year was the national conven-
tion at Philadelphia and the Legion
officials had about given up hope OF
sending the band to the national
convention on account of the fl
nanccs necessary for such long
trip The state executive committee
Of the American Legion then took
the matter up with the officers Of
the Greater North Dakota associa-
:, tion and the state. immigration COM
missioner and through the combined
efforts of the North Dakota Legion
the Greater North Dakota association
and the state immigration commits
sioner, we were not only able to send
our band to the convention but to
place North Dakota exhibit, com
posed Of grains. pottery and praceic-
ally everything that We have in
North Dakota, at the sesquicenten
NAL which was being held at that
time.
The North Dakota band gave con
certs. every day at the North Dakota
exhibit in the foreign countries

sands of people from all parts OF
the world, said Mr.. Fitch. In the
national convention parade of the
40 ct the North Dakota band was
successful in winning second prize
competing with bands from practic
s ally every state in the union.

This territory is a corn-growing

tells of the experience Of farmers
in Hcttinger, Bowman and Adams
counties with this crop. Yields are
very satisfactory, he says.
The. statement of C. r. Fest of
Bowman, who came from eastern
Minnesota, bears out this contcn-

about cne-half the labor to raise a

Senators Cling to
Traditional Snuff

Washington. May 31.-LR)-The
Senate holds tenaciously to its pre-
cedents, and the maintenance Of an
adequate supply of snuff for its
members is one of them.
Two small, black embossed metal
lie snuff boxes resting on the wains-
coting of the Senate chamber on
each side of the Vice Presidents
dais have attracted few devotees in
recent decades Of the once elegant
custom Of snuff taking. But when
the Senate extension of the Capitol
was constructed shortly before the
Civil War, they were regarded as
necessary for the convenience of the
members, nearly all of whom were
using snuff, and to this day one Of
the duties Of the pages is to make
sure that the boxes are supplied
with the powdered tobacco.
Despite the passing of the habit
from common use, efforts to have
the boxes removed have been re-
sisted by q large majority on the

tend further that Amos entered the.

ACTORS HESITATE
7 TOPUSH DEMANDS
Film Artists Hold Equity
| Shop Policy" Rules in
lss.. Allegiance.

~ the Associated Press.
HOLLYWOOD, Calf. July 20
Members Of the film branch of the
Actors Equity Association voted at
o mass meeting last night to hold in
abeyance the Equity shop policy" in
the motion picture industry. policy
which would have prevented Equity
members from working on pictures
with non-members.
The meeting also approved form
for the uniform contract to which the
Actors Equity would be party ana
which the executive committee was in
structed to demand from the. pro
ducers.
Although details of the contract
were not discussed, it was said to
provide for a maximum number OF
hours which an actor could be forced
to work and also to insure him proper
rest periods from day to day.
More than a thousand film actors
and actresses, among whom were
many of the industry's stars, attended
the meeting.
Conrad Nagel, chairman Of the
Equity branch and member of the
board of directors of the Motion Pic
ture Academy Of Arts and Sciences.
announced that the executive commit
tee of the association, consisting Of
some 40 prominent actors and ac-
tresses, had decided against enforce
ment of the Equity shop policy.
Nagel pointed out that the pro-
ducers were engaged in a sincere eff
fort to eliminate difficulties which had
given rise to complaints. Proposed
cuts in salaries had been revoked for
the present at least, he declared. thus
removing the incentive for leading
figures Of the screen to join Equity.
I'VE can force a crisis" he said,
'but whether we can succeed is doubt
full We might be cutting off our nose
to spite our face. We might even
achieve victory. but at a price that
would be ruinous."
