ut is interesting to note," said the
speaker, "that Of more than 1000
amendments proposed during the 141
years only 10 have been adopted.
"The constitution would have been
| legislatively out Of existence if any
great number Of the proposed
amendments had been adopted, and
those that were passed added to the
strength Of the supreme law, rather
than changed It's form and pur-
pose"
At the beginning Of the meeting
D. E. Shipley, chairman Of the en-
|tertainment committee, reported
that there had been some question as
to the feasibility of Ladies' Night
on September "a, in view Of the Hal
lowe'en celebration about q month
later. It was decided to postpone
this event.

President F. B. Strauss to the forth

Indicative Of general prosperity in
North Dakota and the fact that bus
mess conditions in the state are
good is the report Of the Northwest
ern Bell Telephone Company that
more than 5000 long distance
calls were handled in North Dakota
during the month Of August.

telephone wires in North Dakota last
month than any previous month in
the history Of the company. During
August last year approximately
100000 long distance calls originat-
ed within the state, making an in
crease during August Of this year
Of more than $4,000 long distance
conversations.
Mr.. Waldo says that approximate
~ $4,000 long distance calls were
placed by the people Of Bismarck
and Mandan during the month Of

barometer Of the local business and

PREPARATIONS IS
NEAR SOLUTION
United States to Be Asked to
!, Participate in Rhineland
Deliberations

Geneva, Sept. 17.-CP>-The belief
prevailed today that the United
States would undoubtedly be asked
to participate in the deliberations OF
the commission Of experts that will
work for q complete and definite
settlement Of the reparations prob
lem.
After . series Of conversations,
Great Britain, France, Germany
Italy. Belgium and Japan reached an
agreement to name the commission
and m accord in principle for special
official negotiations looking to evac-
uation Of the Rhineland.
In some circles the opinion was
held that discussion of PREPARATIONS
would lead to . discussion Of wal
debts in general.
Disclaimers were issued, however
that Europe had any wish to drag
the United States into the repara.
tions discussion. Nevertheless, the
general opinion in political circles
appeared to b., that n,.hing sound
complete or final could be achieved
without the collaboration Of Ameri
ca either through governmental
representative or financiers wh'
would reflect Washington's views.
When delegates of so nations t
~ assembly Of the League of Ma
tions heard Of the accord, the opin
ion was voiced that statesmen hav,
begun to write the last chapter o.

the great war. Not only represent
