DEALERS ADVISED TO LEAVE
INSPECTORS STAMP ON
MEAT

An efficient inspection service
is maintained by the u. S. govern
ment to assure the meat buyer
that he is getting a sound, whole
some product that was prepared in
a clean. sanitary meat packing es-
Itablishment. Meats which pass the
rigid government inspection are
marked by a stamp. The stamp is
absolutely harmless. The u. S. de-
partment of agriculture declares
in commenting on reports that
some dealers frequently cut it off
of carcasses and also retail cuts
of meat. The marking fluid is
q vegetable coloring material made
of approved ingredients and is as
harmless as fruit juice. The in
spection stamp is put on all whole
sale cuts of inspected beef, veal,
pork, lamb. and mutton, and is the
United States governments assur-
ance that the meat was from a
healthy animal and was prepared
in strictly sanitary manner. The
government inspectors first exam
inc the live, animals and follow
thru each process of preparing
fresh meat or meat products for
market.
This protection which the u. S.
department. Of agriculture provides
under authority from Congress,
enables consumers to distinguish
properly inspected meat from that
which has not been slaughtered
and prepared under such a safe
guard. Consumers therefore, should
request dealers not to cut off the
inspection stamp. since its removal

RUSSIA WILL
TAKE PART IN
ARMS PARLEY
One of Biggest Obstacles to
Success of Conference
Thereby Removed

Geneva, Oct. 31.--(AP)-Russia
has notified the League of Nations
that the soviet government will
participate in the work OF the pre-
paratory commission on a disarma-
ment conference, 1t was announced
at league headquarters today.
The absence OF Russia had been
considered ono OF the biggest OBJ
staclcs to tho convocation OF con-
ference which would stand a chance
OF success in the reduction Of land
ornaments. The commission meets
here November so.
The soviet government hitherto
has refused collaboration in the
disarmament conferences OF the
league, its last refusal being accom-
panied by the declaration that the
soviet government was disinclined
to send delegates to Switzerland be-
cause of the then unsettled contro-
versy that grew out OF the assas-
sination OF Vaslav vorovsky, soviet
representative at the Lausanne con-
ference in 1923.
Sir Eric Drummond, league sccre-
tary, today received a telegram from
Foreign Commissar Tchitcherin.
saying that now that tho Vorovsky
incident had been settled by the
protocol of April IA. Moscow was
willing to participate in the labors
OF the disarmament commission. A
request for information as to the
place, date and agenda of the next
meeting was included.

Many Are Seeking
State Farm Loans

Announcement by his office that
the state land department had more
than q million dollars available for
farm loans has created q lot Of work
for w. r. Byerly, who recently took
, office as state land commissioner.
No sooner had the information
been broadcast through the news
papers than the number of farm loan
application jumped by leaps and
bounds, Byerly said. These are
being filed and subjected to the
usual investigation as to the desir-
ability Of the loans and will be acted
upon by the state land board rs
soon as possible. At recent meet
ing the. land board approved los
loan applications averaging about
$1,25O each.
One Of the most startling things
he found when he took office, Byerly
said, was the number Of loans which
had been approved by the board but
on which the applicants had failed
to take the final steps necessary to
get the money. His only solution is
the possibility that the applicants
were dissatisfied with the amounts
Of the loans awarded them by the
board and decided to get their money
elsewhere.
Loans by the land board are
financed with money held in trust
for various state institutions, the
money in each case having been OBJ
tained through the sale Of lands
granted to schools and other insti-
tutions by the federal government.

Bonding Fund Seeks
Recovery Of Money

Recovery of about $4,000 paid by
the state bonding fund on the bond
Of w. A. Mcintyre, former treasurer
Of Bowman county, is asked in =
suit filed by the bonding fund
against the Bank of North Dakota
in district court here.
The bonding fund was held liable
when the Farmers and Mechanics
bank of Bowman closed and Nc
1ntyre was found to have on deposit
81 900 more of county money than
the bond given by the bank to cover
such deposits.
It was found, however, that Nc
Intyre had attempted to transfer =
part of the deposit by giving checks
to the bank Of North Dakota, SO
that the surplus would be deposited
in the state owned bank here. The
bonding fund claimed that the Bank
Of North Dakota was negligent in
collecting on the checks and there
fore was responsible for its loss.
1t had one check Is days before the
Bowman bank closed, the petition
alleges, and not only failed t.. collect
the money but failed to notify Nc
Intyre or the bonding fund that it
had not been collected.

fer with highway chiefs Of Saskatch-
evan before determining upon .

PLANE TAKEN
BACK TO NEW
YORK SUNDAY
Wilmer Stultz, Pilot, Through
With Prospect of Flying
Blind Over Oceans
DIFFERENCES REVEALED
Woman's Flying Companion
Says It Would Have Been
Suicidal TO Keep on

New York, Oct. 31.-1R)-With
the amphibian monoplane Dawn
back to Curtiss field today, in
definitely out Of the transatlantic
flying lists, Wilmer Stultz, the pilot
who had taken the plane nearly 500
miles on its third start for Copen-
hagen and then turned it back, de-
clared himself through with the
prospect Of "flying blind over the
oceans"
Differences between Mrs. Frances
Wilson Grayson, owner Of the plane,
and the pilot became noticeable
after the unsuccessful attempts to
fly the Dawn from Old Orchard,
Maine, to Copenhagen, and were re-
vealed in more detail when the craft
was brought back from Old Orchard
yesterday.
Stultz Made the ''Goat''
Stultz charged he had been made
the "goat" since the return Of the
Dawn to Old Orchard after its third
take-off, and said it would have
been suicidal to have continued the
flight against changing winds and
inability to get the plane higher
than 400 feet. He charged that
Brice Goldsmi ;, rat ) operator and
navigator, instead Of being beside
him during the crucial period, was
sending messages that "didn'., mean
anything" from Mrs. Grayson to
Mrs. Coolidge and others.
"Now that the pllnc is back here
safe, it can remain forever as far as
l am concerned, for I am through
he added. "There is not q pilot in
the country who will question my
Judgment. They believe ! am doing
right"
Stultz said the ship was the bes,
flying craft he had ever handled and
that with good weather it would be
able 10 make the flight across the
ocean.
"But not with me-" he added. 81
have been paid and hold no III
feeling toward Mrs. Grayson.
''Future? have many things
offered me, but not flying blind over
the oceans"
Failed to Get Passport
Mrs. Grayson said Stultz has been
so skeptical of her intention tc
make the fligh that he faile to get
q passport.
The Dawn was stored beside Cap
tain Rene Fonck's Vile de Paris
Fonck abandoned his projected
flight to Paris ard returned tc

GAMM0NS CASE
APPEAL TAKEN
Auditing Board Files Writs in
Supreme Court, Asking
Mandamus Dismissal

Appeal from the decision OF Judge
Fred Jansonius in Burleigh county
district court ordering the state au-
dittng board to pay the salary OF
John Gammons, secretary OF the
state industrial commission, was
filed today in the supreme court.
Grounds on which the appeal were
taken were practically the' same as
those on which the case was argued
in district court.
The board contended that there Is
no money available with which to
pay Gammons' salary, arguing that
a balance of $13,137.5S from the
1919 appropriation was repealed by
special appropriations Of 1921, 1923
and 1925.
It was claimed by petitioners for
Gammons that this 1919 appropria-
tion is still available for use. Judge
Jansonius had SO decided, applying
q decision OF the supreme court in
the case OF Joseph Coghlan VS.. D.
C. Poindexter, ct. al, which read
that "repeals by implication are not
favored. It is q reasonable presump-
ton that all laws are passed with
knowledge Of those already existing
and that the legislature does not
intend to repeal q statute without
so declaring"
The appellants claimed that Gam
mons had further been discharged
a. secretary since July Z, when Gov
ernor Sorlie appointed Gilbert Sem
ingson. Judge Jansonius had ruled
that Gammons had not been legally
discharged, since there had not been
quorum present when the gover-
nor ordered him removed.

OF
GREECE FIRED
ON BY YOUTH
Bullet Strikes Admiral Kon.
douriotis in Temple-In-
jury Not Serious

Athens, Greece. Oct. 31.-R)-
Admiral Paul Kondouriotis, 72. first
president Of Greece, today bore on
his right temple the scar Of = bull
let fired by an unemployed waiter
in an attempt to assassinate him.
The waiter was saved from q
lynching by q mob. Lodged in jail,
he told police the attempt was made
because the Greek state refused to
support him during the time he was
without work.
The president entered his automo-
bile in front Of the municipal build
ing, where he had just opened form
ally the congress Of Greek mayors.
A youth Of Is. Zafioios Goussios,
drew q revolver and fired two shots.
One Of the bullets struck the
windshield Of the presidential auto
mobile, shattering the glass in front
Of Admiral Kondouriotis and strik-
ing him in the right temple.
Condition Not Critical
As the crowd rushed at the as
sailant, police surrounded the youth
and hurried him off to Jail. Presi-
dent Kondouriotis was treated ut q
hospital and the surgeon said his
condition was satisfactory.
The cabinet council held immedi-
ately after the shooting decided to
take necessary measures to suppress
all subversive tendencies against the
state. The foreign minister advo-
Gated that measures be taken re-
sembling those against anarchists in
France in 1924, when subversive ele-
ments were rounded up by the
wholesale and many deported.
The minister Of war told the cab
met that the crime was wholly COM
munist in its inception. Goussios il
stated to have been the Larissa cor
respondent Of an Athenian commun-
list newspaper. Police said they had
learned Of . conversation two weeks
ago in which Goussios told his COM
munist comrades that he intended to
assassinate the president.

Maximilian Harden. noted Ger

attributed to bronchitis.
His passing attracted general at

strong mutual hatred Since Harden
enjoyed the patronage of Bismarck.

Hated Kaiser an Feared Him Not
Maximilian Harden caused more
uneasiness to the former royalty of
Germany and en- who occupied po-
litical positions during the regime
of the former kai-er than any other
man or agency in Germany. He
hated the former war lord more and
feared him less than any otFer Ger

to the former kaiser, and never per-
mitted to pass an opportunity to
criticize and attack the ruler and
those associated with him in the
government.
Harden was an amdirer- Of Bis
marck and in his c.rly writings
ardently defended the policies and
theories of the "Iron Chancellor" +"
The breach between the chancellor
and the kaiser shortly after the lat

increase Harden's admiration for
Bismarck and bis antipathy toward
the kaiser. He began t. attract at

Four years later in order to get
