Jewel RObberies Have
Scotland Yard Puzzled

London, March 2.-(A9-Scotland
yard was puzzled today by a series
Of unprecedented jewel robberics.
the latest of which was the theft Of
= diamond tiara valued at $500
from q home in fashionable May
fair.
In the past few days there have
been other astounding robberies
which may be the work Of the same
gang. In two cases the burglars
had the temerity to enter homes
which they might have been expect
cd to shun, one Of them being the
home Of leading police official
and the other a house occupied by
a man who designs safes and strong
rooms for bankers.
The tiara robbery took place at
the palatial home Of W. Ingham
Whitaker. Sixteen servants were
in the house when the robbery took
place.
Valuable jewclry also was recent
~ stolen from the home of Lord
Clwyd in Kensington while Lord and
Lady Clowdy were entertaining
guests.
The Palmer's green home Of
Chief Constable Wcnsley, one Of
the big five Of Scotland yard. was
raided and the neighboring house
Of the safe designer ransackcd.

State Has Several
Long Time Employees

Janitors last longer in the state
service than any other class of en-
ployes, a recent check at the state
capitol showed.
When u. McPhee, clerk in the
state auditors office recently com
pleted 20 years Of service in that
department. he looked about him
and found only one other office
worker who was in the state employ
when he arrived. That was Il. D.
Hoskins, former clerk of the SUI
preme court and now head Of the
soldiers bonus department in the adj
jutant generals office.
On the other hand no less than
three janitors still in the state EN-.
ploy have held their jobs for %
years or more. William Leist leads
the list with 30 years of service and
two Of his cronies are close behind.
An effort to pass a bill pensioning
Leist failed at the last regular ses-
sion, many legislators contending
that he still is able to perform his
duties and that it would place the
state under moral obligation to the
other veterans of the janitorial staff.

Hearing on the application of the
Montana Dakota Power company for
permission to construct high-pres-
sure gas line across the entire state
Of North Dakota from west to east
will b. held by the state railroad
ooard on March 10.
Gas which the Montana akota
company proposes to supply to cities

seen developed by it and which al.
ready are producing more gas than
the company can sell in the Montana
cities which it already serves. In
Unofficial statements to the state

pany are said to have declared that

Variety Of Scenery

Washington, March 2.-(AP)-
The expansion of motor touring in
recent years has seen a correspond
ing development in the idea of the
state park and what it should pro-
vide.
State. parks and forests range in
size from a few square rods to the
100000 acres of the Adirondack
Park Of New York, which is larger
than any National park except yell
lowstone and which administers an
additional recreational area Of pri-
vately owned land-bringing its to-
tai to 100000 acres. The range in
equipment Of these centers does not
always vary widely, but considering
the relative newness of the idea be-
hind them, the parks differ to con-
siderable extent.

RATE. ON BONDS
MAY BE REDUCED
State Land Board Has In Mind
Lowering of Interest Rate
Required

Proposal to reduce the interest
rate on bonds purchased by the state
land board will be considered BY that
body in the near future. tn sugges-
ton already has been discussed in
formally and definite decision Of the
matter is expected.
Under the present law the board
must receive five per cent interest
on school and other bonds which it
purchases. This is the same figure
at which money is loaned by the
board on farm mortgages.
The idea back Of the proposal to
reduce bond interest rates is; that
they are fully as sound % farm
mortgages as investments and it
costs less to handle them. Bonds
usually are purchased in fairly large
amounts and the land department
experiences no difficulty in collect
ing principal or interest. There is
less bookkeeping to be done with
regard to them and it is not neces-
sary to appraise them, as is the case
with farms offered as security for
loans, or to maintain q collection de.
partment. W. E. Byerly, state land
commissioner, estimates that the
state could purchase the bonds at
four per cent interest and still make
as much or more from the invest
ment as from farm loans at five per
cent. Under the present system, he
said, school districts are hesitating
to offer bonds to tho land depart
ment because, in some cases, they
can get the money cheaper else.
where.
The state law requires that ct least
one.third Of the funds Of the land
board be invested in farm mortgages.
Examination Of the land depart
ment records shows that one-half
now is so invested.
The present policy Of the board,
Byerly said, is to purchase only
school, county or state bonds and ali
offers Of city or village bonds are
being rejected.

FLAYS BOTH PARTIES
Norris Attacks Platforms
for Avoiding Issues.

BIZ United Press
WASHINGTON, June 29.-The
platform adopted by the Democratic
national convention at Houston is
as unsatisfactory to Senator Norris,
(Rep) Nebraska, as the one adopted
by the Republicans at Kansas City,
he said in a statement issued here
today.
1.-THE Democratic national plat
form is remarkable for what it
avoids rather than what it says, u
says Norris. Like it's Republican
predecessor at Kansas City 1t is
silent on the sinister and deceitful
activities of the water power trust.
The Nebraska Senator, who has
been discussed as a possible third
party hope, said a third party now
was impossible. This together with
Norris denunciation of both plat
forms, leaves him opposed to both
major parties and supporting no
one.
