Coffee Houses Still
Alarm OxfOrd's Deans

Oxford, England, Mar. 22.-(R--
Custodians of Oxford's present-day
morals are alarmed at the growth Of
coffee shops along the city's main
street.
To the accompaniment of jazz
orchestra and over cups of coffee
and plates of waters, undergraduates
and Undergraduates" of England's S
most aristocratic college meet regu-
larly in mid-morning for a bit Of
gossip, a mild filtration, and dis
cussion of the days "campusalogy."
But reference to the citys histor-
ians shows that the practice is by
no means new. In 1850, in addition
to $40 alehouscs, the city boastcd
several coffee houses we'll frequent
ed by the students Of the day.
University authorities of the times
looked upon the prospering coffee
houses with alarm as "meancs to
create idlcness and -debauch
scholars" Anthony Wood, one his-
torian Of the times, wrote:
"The decay Of study, and consc-
quently Of learning are coffee houses,
to which most scholars retire and
spend much Of the day in hearing and
speaking Of news and speaking vilely
Of their superiors; uttcring fluently
romantic nonsense, unintelligible
sibberish. fiourishins lyes and non
sense"

Decision Given in Case In
vOlving Sale Of Electric Dis
tributiOn System at Ashley
Valid Title to Properties
Sold Without AuthOriza-
tiOn Challenged.

Sales Of electric distribution or
other public utility properties in
North Dakota are void unless author
ity to make the transfer has first been
obtained from the state railroad
board.s the state board has held in a
case involving the electric distribu-
tion system at Ashley.
The case came before the railroad
board when residents Of Ashley pro-
tested against the proposed sale Of
the Ashley electric plant by the OF
tertail Power company to the North
ern Power and Light company of
Mobrdge, s. d.
When hearing was held at Ashley,
r. S. Clark appeared and contended
that he owned the property and that
a prior transfer by him to the OF
tertall company was void because it
never had been approved by the rail-
road board.
Commission Not Notified
The records showed that the al
legged transfer from Clark to the
Ottertail company was made two
years ago but the commission had
never been notified and had not
given its approval to the transfer.
In its findings the railroad board
held that it also was unable to say
that Clark had acquired the prop
erty in the manner provided by law.
Pointing to the state law which
holds that no public utility property
may be sold, leased, assigned, trans
ferred or mortgaged without the
prior consent Of the railroad board,
the commission dismissed cases
growing out Of the purported sale of
the property by Clark to the Otter
tail company and the attempt by the
Ottertail company to transfer it to
the Northern Power and Light COM
pany. An application by the North
ern Power and Light company to
construct transmission line into
Ashley also was dismsse on the
ground that this application hinged
on the acquisition of the property by
purchase from the Ottertail Power
company.
Practice Is Wrong
In its decision the railroad board
said: 1--WE may say in passing that
it has come to our knowledge that
it has been the practice of number
of public utilities to make sales OF
property and later to seek approval
Of this commission. Our Jurisdiction
does not extend to the approval OF
sales already made but Is limited ia
authorizations Of sales to be made
