Anglers fishing with choice bats,

appointed, for their catches have

LABOR ALTERS

EDITORS NOTE: me Amer
'can Federation of Labor, at its
recent convention in Los An
geles. inaugurated q new policy
of trying to speed up indus
trial production, as opposed to
the traditional labor attitude.
Time was when lab0r's aim
was to make the Job last; to
restrict output and at the same
time to seek higher wages. Now,
however, with the fiye-day week
as a goal, labor has taken an
opposite course. i is seeking
to increase production, to In
crease output SD that each work.
er can produce more in five
days work than he formerly
could in six. Ii welcomes the
advent of labor-saying ma
chimes.
Because this marks a most
important development in Amer
lean industrial relations the
Tribune asked William NJ.
Green, president of the Ameri-
can Federation of LABOR. to dis
cuss it for their readers. Mr..
Green's article. especially writ

learn that Bachman with his
magical baton had transformed the
entire assembly till they were vir-

program, busted myself listening

that there was no trace Of doubt as

WARD DISTRICT
COURT UPHELD
Supreme Court Rules Bank
Cannot Sue Itself as Gar
nishee in Collection

Affirming the Ward county dis
trict court, the suprme court has
held that bank cannot sue itself
as a garnishee in an effort to collect
money from it's depositors.
In the case Of the First Interna-
tional Bank of Minot VS.. Amos Breh-
mer, in WHICH the bank named itself
as defendant in its position as gar
nishee, the court held that bank
cannot appropriate deposit to pay
4 debt without due legal process or
the consent of the depositor.
In the case at bar, Brehmer owed
the bank on promissory note and
after several years made a deposit
in the bank. The bank Immediately
brought an action to garnish the
money but before the action was
completed Brehmer filed a bank
ruptcy petition and was later dis
charged from bankruptcy. The low
cr court held that in view of these
facts the bank had no claim on the
money and the supreme court up
held the decision, adding that the
bank could not sue itself.
In the case OF l.. II. Baird, as re-
ceiver of the Merchants State Bank
Of Velva, VS.. Carl Hansen, the SUI
preme court held that Baird was the
legal pOssessor Of grain storage
tickets assigned to the bank by q
company which owed it money. Han
sen, who was sheriff of McHenry
county, levied on the storage tickets
and sold them. The lower court
held Hansen liable for the value of
the storage tickets. He appealed to
the supreme court but lost again.
Ordering a new trial in the case
of Knute Olson VS.. the Great North
crn Railroad company, appealed by
the latter from Ward county. the
supreme court held that evidence in
the case was insufficient to prove
that rheumatism and heart disease
of which Olson complained was
caused by bad1working conditions in
the Great Northern roundhouse at
Berthold. The decision reversed q
prior action Of the Ward county dis
trict court denying q motion for q
new trial.

IOWA CLOTHIER
Is CHOSEN AS
AVERAGE MAN
Magazine Writer Picks Fort
Madison Man as Most Typ.
ical of Majority

New York, Oct. 19.-tP)-Thc
proprietor of a one man clothing
store in Fort Madison, Iowa, has
been chosen as Americas average
man" by VILLAIN S. Dutton, writing
in the American magazine.
Neither leader nor laggard in
the affairs of his town, Roy l.. Gray,
the average" nominee, has an aver
age education, lives in an average
home on an average street, drives
an average car, and is the head Of
a family of four, which is the aver
age used by the census bureau.
Likes Music
He is a church member who does
not attend services regularly. His
tastes in radio music run from cur
rent jazz to light classical compost
tions, and he believes tie movies
to be not as bad as they are rcputed
to be. The younger gener .tion does
not alarm him. He has an average
interest in matters which do not di-
rectly affect his home or his bust
ness.
A party man in national politics,
he is independent on local issues.
His attitude on prohibition is nom
committal because he believes nei-
Their vets nor drys are giving him
accurate information on the issue.
He is a member of the chamber of
commerce, the Rotary club, the Elks
and the Odd Fellows.
''Most Of ALL" he says, 81 am in
terested in my home. And next
comes my business because my home
depends upon it." He likes to read
the current magazines better than
anything else, but he reads tEc ad-
vertisements first because "they
keep me in touch with the latest de-
velOpments."
Foreign News Not Appealing
In the newspapers he reads with
interest about new inventions, then
about great disasters or unusual
crimes. Foreign news has no ap-
pea. for him, but the s~eeche. of the
president or of the governor of Iowa
he will read from beginning to end.
The choice Of Mr.. Gray to wear
the title bestowed upon him ended
nation-wire search in which Mr..
button used a map, weather chart
and the census report, dividing the
number of cities and towns in the
country into its population to find
that Fort Madison was the average
town in population, location and
climate.
Once Fort Madison was selected,
it's citizens were asked to choose
from among themselves the man
who best repres ,nted the average.
The city found that "There is a
little Of all of it in Roy l.. Gray"
