HIGH court CONTENDS BONDING FUND
SLIABLE FOR MONEY LOST IN BANK

Room, the court reversed a previous
ruling by the Ward county district
court.
Tried to Attach Property
The complainants sought to attach
property belonging to Mauratis on
the ground that he had or planned
to defraud it by disposing Of, sell
ing or secreting certain property.
/ Mauratis interposed a defense and
when defeated in the lower court
appealed from the order denying his
| motion to discharge the attachment.
The supreme court held that the
plaintiff had not proved that Maura-
It's had attempted to dispose Of his
+, property in an effort TO dcfraud them
! or that he had shown any disposition
to do so. 1t also held that the
plaintiff had shown no adequate
grounds for attaching his property.
In another case the court held
that Tim Mulcahy, janitor of IA school
at Dogdcn, Mclean county, must
serve a three-year term in the peni-
Tertiary on first degree rape
charge. Mulcahy, in his appeal,
claimed errors occurring at the trial
and that the evidence was insuffi-
cient to sustain the verdict. He is
81 years old and was convicted on
the complaint Of l6year-old girl.
Mcintosh Court Reversed
Holding that the provisions of the
federal soldiers and sailors relief
act are applicable in state as we'll as

Of Jacob kasel VS.. the First National

kasel contended that upon his re-

ON MOTOR ROW
Figures Prove Long
Life Of Knight Cars

There is probably no moving piece
of machinery built about which the
manufacturers could claim it would
improve in mechanical efficiency the
longer 1t was used. In any form of
mechanical movements wear will de-
velop eventually. and with this evil
are associated its compatriots, noise,
vibration, loss of power, and heavy
cost Of upkeep.
According to records in the hands
of WHY'S Overland officials, no case
is known where a Knight -engined car
has been strapped or discarded be-
cause of the engine losing any of its
former efficiency. Included in the
100000 WHY'S knight cars on the
roads in this country today. are hun
dreds of models which have been
driven more than 100000 miles,
scores with records Of 100000 miles
and more, and there are cases where
cars are in excellent running condi-
ton today whose speedometers, show
in excess of 100000 miles of service.
Undoubtedly, the most important
factor contributing toward the long
life and reliability of these cars is
the use OF the Knight sleeve valve
engine design. The fact that the
oAOS"Hs al SHSiu YOU ~ never wear
out" is no myth is demonstrated by.
these remarkable figures. Even in
eases Of cars with poppet valve en-
gines having piled up as many as
100000 miles since they were put in
to service, the time and expense of
Keeping these engines in good run
ming condition during this period
amounts to many hundreds of dollars.
There is virtually no expense con-
nected with the maintenance of |
knight type engines. Practically one
half OF the cost of upkeep with q |
p9ppet valve engined car may be
charged to the carbon removal and |
valve grinding operations which have
to be done periodically to every size
and class of car employing this type
Of engine. In the Knight type en-
CINE, the sleeves which take the
place OF the valves in the poppet
valve engine seldom require atten-
Lion while the presence Of carbon in
. knight engine is desirable and
beneficial factor rather than a detri-
ment.

plaintiffs made by The lower court
was affirmed.
In the case of Grant Smith as ad-
ministrator of the estate of Herbert
Winifred VS.. o. p. Fladeland, ap-
pealed by the former from the
Mountrail county district court, the
supreme court reversed the lower
tribunal and rcmanded the case for
the lower court to determine the
share held by Fladeland in certain
property.
The record Of the case shows that
Fladeland, Borst's father-in-law, ad-
vanced money to prevent foreclosure
on property purchased by Borst on
contract prior to his death. "A deed
for the property then was made out
to Fladeland.
The supreme court held that Flade-
land should share in the property to
the extent Of the amount which he
had invested but that the title
should have gone to the Borst estate.
No Fraud Shown
| Affirming the Bottineau county
/ district court, the supreme court
held that a mortgage on certain real
estate, held by w. H. Mcintosh as
receiver of the Mokall State Bank.
was superior to mortgage on the
same property held by Charles Berg
gren. -
Berggren commended that the mort
gage. which he claimed to be a prior
lien, was sold~sto him by the bank
and that it was represented by the
bank as a first mortgage. The mort
gage held by the bank was recorded
six minutes before that sold to
Berggren.
After reviewing the evidence the
court held that Bcrggren had failed
to establish fraud on the part of the
bank.

Funds Appeal From Decision
in Bowman County District
Court Proves Fruitless--
Decisions Handed Down
This Week in Large Num-
Der of Cases

Sustaining the Bowman county dis
trict court, the supreme court has
held the state bonding fund liable
for S9.l93.G0 in connection with the
bond of William A. Mcintyre. former
treasurer of Bowman county.
Appeal to the supreme court was
taken by the bonding fund which
contended that the facts set forth in
the complaint against it did not CON
stitute a cause Of action and that
the judgment was contrary to the
evidence. Another point raised was
that the demand made for payment
was signed by the county commits
sioners and not by the county audi
tor. All objections made by the
fund were held to be without basis.
Would Entail Duplication
Commenting on the contention of
attorneys for the bonding fund that
the auditor is required to make the
demand for payment the court point
ed out that the county commissioners
have general supervision over all
county offices and that to require
both the auditor and the commits
sioners to present the demand would
entail useless duplication.
The claim against McIntyre's bond
developed when county officials
found that he had deposited $9,l99. go
more than was covered by the banks
depository bond. The bank failed and
demand was made upon Mcintyre
and the state bonding fund for the
money.
