Women Relate How
They Helped Men
Escape From Jail

Minneapolis, June 29-@ The
story of how she carried four tubes
of toothpaste and shaving cream to
her husband which led to the escape
of three prisoners from the Grand
Forks, N. d., Jail, was told here to-
day by the wife Of one of the Jail
breakers.
Mrs. w. r. Brown and Mrs. Forest
Cradle, whose husbands and K. Will
SON escaped from the Grand Forks
jail week ago by saving through
two sets Of bars. were arrested TODAY
when they called at the general de-
livery window, expecting letters from
their husbands.
Mrs. Brown confessed her part in
the jail break to Minneapolis police.
Both women waived extraditiOn and
were returned to Grand Forks today
where they will face charges of aid
ing prisoners to escape.
My husband asked me to get him
some files" Mrs. Brown told police.
We were afraid to smuggle them
in, though. So he told me to get
some valve grinding compound.
We went to Grand Forks garage
and bought a pound of valve grind
ing powder. Then we went to a drug
store near the garage and Dough,
two tubes Of shaving cream and two
OF :. toothpaste. We squeezed the
toothpaste out of the tubes, and
then filled each tube half full with
powder and sealed the tubes again.
We didn't have any trouble getting
the stuff past the jailers when we
took it to the jail"

Lastly, Commander Stott ran up a
total of SGl4.5O for tire, charges, in
Guiding new tires and tubes, and tire
repair work.
First Cost High
These four items totaled -, 594.79,
which the car cost him in the four
years and nine months he drove it.
Dividing the 4S,372 miles he drove
into this amount, he derived the
figure of nine and a half cents a
mile.
This figure he further divided, so
that he discovered that. his fixed
charges took So cents a mile; run
ming charges Is cents; repairs 1.5
cents and tire charges 1.3 cents q
mile.
Gasoline and oil, for which we pay
most consistently, turned out to take
only about one-seventh of the total
cost of the car, while it was the
initial cost, contrary to general be-
lief, that ate up more Of the total
than any other item.

ENFORCEMENT
OF SPEED LAWS
SAVES MONEY
Operation of Cars at High
Speeds on Graveled Roads
Expensive to State

Operation Of motor cars at lower
speeds on North Dakota's graveled
highways would save the state thou
sands of dollars annually in the opin-
ion of T. G. Plomasen, engineer in
charge Of the state highway main
tehance division.
Enforcement ON the state laws
against speeding would save the state
money, he said, because it would save
the roads from severe pounding by
heavy machines.
when an automobile weighing a
ton sor more strikes q spot which is
even slightly rough. the weight is
thrown upward and then back upon
the roads," he said. "The result Of
this pounding Of the road is sue
cession Of small ruts. Gradually, as
the pounding continues, these ruts
grow larger and larger. It is dif-
ficult to smooth them out and the
result is increased maintenance
COSTS"
Plomasen estimates that a motor
car travelling % miles an hour causes
more than twice as much dama1e to
the road as one travelling half the
speed.
Craveled Roads Best
Heavy rains this spring and sum
mer in many parts Of the state have
demonstrated the value of gravel
surfacing, he said, and expressed the
opinion that motorists IL the state
could afford to pay 1 fiwe-cent gaso-
line tax easier than they con afford
to operate their machines over roads
which beco rutted after the rains.
He estimates that the difference
would be more than saved by small
er consumption Of gasoline and oil
and lessened wear on the machine,
to say nothing Of the drivers nerves
and comfort. 49,
Proper repair of rutted roads is
made difficult, he said, by the fact
that they dry quickly and road
pAtr0tmen do not have opportunity to
completely obiiterate the ruts before
the road dries and becomes difficult
to work"

Here's how he comes to this con.
clusion:

The initial cost Of his car, includ-
ing freight, tax and extras, was
Sl,79l.50. He ran it for four years
and nine months, over a distance of
1892 miles, in and around the city

insurance on the car for the time he
had it and the regular storage
charges. Totaling these and sub

car when he traded it for a new one,
he got S2,514.71 which he set down
as his fixed charges on the car.

San Francisco, Jane 2e.--R-Ed-
Mund J. Moffa.t, one of the hackers
of the Smith Carter flight to Homo
lulu, which failed to get under way
yesterday after repairs to broken
window in the pilots cabin had de-
1ayed the take-off, declared early
today that he was still interested in
the Honolulu flight project and be-
lieved Pilot Ernest l.. Smith to be
interested.
He said conference would be
held today with five or six candi-
dates for the. navigator's place in the
plane, and that, if one could be found
acceptable to Smith, the plans for
the flight probably would be re-
sumed. Charles H. Carter, who had
intended to fly with Smith. declined
to take off yesterday when the plane
finally had been repaired, saying he
did not care to start five hours be-
hind the army plane.

GILCHRIST PIANISTS' RECITAL

A group of earnest children and
young folk gave the recital of the
Master School of Piano, Grace G. Gill
christ director, at the Masonic Audi
forum last night. The audience was
keenIy attentive and appreciative.
There were several unusual fea-
lures. First was the playing of an
arrangement of Beethoven's famous
"Leonore Overture. No. g." by four
pianists on two instruments. Those
participating included Marie Fuhs,
Mrs. Charles J. Cassidy, Miss Gil
christ and Gustav Weckel. There
were times that orchestral color
seemed to pervade and it was an in
teresting endeavor throughout. Wag-
ner's pilgrims Chorus was given
similar treatment with those at the
two pianos, Miss Fuhs, Edna Rosen-
berg, HiIda Burke and Mr.. Weckel
Another unusual feature was the
appearance of two very small chill
dren on a program otherwise given to
an older group in their teens. Little
Jean Holmes, girl of perhaps 6
years, showed remarkable poise and
stage presence as well as clean-cut
technique to the extent required for
her little waltz by Christiana. Clar-
ence Huffman. whose golden Curls
