STATE LABOR IN

Brisk Demand for Farm Labor
Reported Throughout State;
Supply Adequate

Employment conditions in North
Dakota were regarded as satisfac-
tory during October, according to a
report by the United States depart
ment of labor.
Resident building-tradesmen were
practically all employed. with indi-
cations that this condition will con-
tinue as long as favorable weather
lasts, the report said. Many un-
skilled workers found employment
on the farms.
At Fargo, the report said, q brisk
demand for general farm labor was
the leading factor in the employment
situation, although the supply was
adequate. Many unskilled laborers
found employment on railroad con-
struction and other outdoor opera.
tions. Meat-packing houses, rail.
roads and other leading industries
reported normal forces employed.
At Grand Forks full.time opera
tions prevailed in the flour mills
Railroads reported slightly increased
forces at work compared with the
previous 3O-day period. There wa.
a good demand for farm help, with
no shortage reported.
Employment in neighboring states
the report said, was normal. Indus
trial enterprises were active and EN-.
ployed a normal number of men
Unskilled labor was in good demand
for agricultural activities, logging
operations, railroad construction, anC
other outdoor work. This class wa.

Chicago, Nov. 16.-(AP)-With

values receded today after an early
advance. Bearishly disposed trad
ers put considerable stress on COM
prehensive reports that with seed

Sweeping Advance Is Wall
Street Response to Brokers'
Gain Loans

New York, Nov. 16. (AP) A
sweeping advance in prices with
record breaking turnover Of stocks
was Wall streets response today to
the relatively insignificant gain in
federal reserve brokers' loans.
Prices bounded upward in a riotous
outburst of buying at the opening
and continued to climb in the face
of heavy profit-taking. Extreme
gains in the active issues ranged
from to 81 points, with long list
of issues including such favorites as
U. S. Steel, Montgomery Ward,
Packard Mootrs, Westinghouse
Electric and Texas Co. setting new
high records for the year.
Call money renewed at 61a pei
cent, as against 6 yesterday, but
bankers indicated that relatively
easy rates could be expected until
the holiday demands began to make
themselves felt. Further imports
of British gold also were expected
to strengthen the country's credit
position.
In the first three hours of trad
ing, total sales averaged more thar
a million shares an hour, with tn.
ticker more than an hour late.
All sorts of merger and dividend
rumors accompanied the rise il

stimulated the demand for the copper

Cent Gas Tax Boost
Asked in Minnesota

Rochester, MIMI, Nov. 16.-(F-
An increase of one cent in the state
gasoline tax and the floating Of the
proposed $2O,OOO,O 900 bond issue for
Minnesota trunk highway improve
ments were advocated in a resolu-
ton adopted by several hundred
good roads enthusiasts representing
the first congressional district at a
meeting here last night.
The action followed an address by
Charles M. Babcock, state highway
commissioner, in which he spoke
favorably Of both proposals.
The meeting was sponsored by the
Minnesota Good Roads association,
Of which Joseph Reynolds of Man
kato is president.
Mr.. Babcock discussed the amend.
ment, submitted at the recent cleo.
ton, providing that one-third Of the
gas tax should 60 to other than
trunk highways. This, he said
placed the highway commission in
an Embarrassing position in that
this would take money away from
the trunk highway fund which ha,
never been adequate to meet the de.
mand set upon it."

WILKINSON TO
LECTURE HERE

DR.. j. M. Wilkinson, noted student
and lecturer who has twice seen the
famous Oberammergau Passion
Play, will lecture at the McCabe
Methodist church here Sunday at
1880 p. H., it was announced here
today by Rev. w. E. Water, pastor
Of the church.
An authentic account Of the drama
will be given at the lecture, together
with colored slides, hand painted
of scenes in the play.
No camera is allowed in the thea
ter during the presentation of the
play, and no motion picture has ever
been made of any part Of the pre-
sentation, DR.. Wilkinson said. He is
emphatic in his statement that any
motion picture purporting to show
actual views of the play as given al
Oberammergau is a fake. He says
the committee in charge of the
sacred drama in 1920 refused mil.
lion dollar offer by an American
syndicate for motion pictures of the
actual play.
While a visitor at Oberammergau
Dr.. Wilkinson stopped at the home
of Anton Lang, noted for the role
of Christ. Here he met Johr
Zwinck, the Judas of the play; his
daughter Ottie, who portrayed the
Virgin Mary, and Andreas, who took
the part of Peter.
In this way he gained first-hane
knowledge of the actors and theiI
parts, and through Jacob Rutz
leader of the great chorus, he be-
came familiar with the details Of
the play. Armed with knowledge
and insight into the daily lives o.
