tariff on sugar is a shining example of
the way high tariff, by discriminating
against certain classes of producers, can
impoverish companies in one country

The United States consumes some

tive, after the Leadership Training
committee of the Bismarck Area

Fulton points out that many scout
leaders are needed in Bismarck and
Mandan. In Bismarck alone, he
says, 200 boys are engaged in scout
work, and 200 more. who desire to en-
ter scout work. are deprived of the
privilege because the city has not
enough leaders.
The course offered will give the
students general knowledge of the
aims and content of the scout pro-
gram, with stress on methods which
can be used to teach this program to
boys. It is intended to give the new
.scoutmaster a logical point of view ;.
scouting and systematic basis upon
which he may build his future actiy:-
ties with boys.
The course will cover a series of
II sessions, about two hours. each.
with three hikes included. The best
available instructors will be obtained,

Steps to obtain the location here Of
industries were stressed IN the L-to-G
group meeting Of Association Of Com
merce. Wednesday evening.
This was considered as the most diff
ficu,; activity OF the program to be
formulated by the association for 1929
Industries prefer to locate close to
their raw supplies. North Dakota be-
ing an agricultural commonwealth, 1t
was realized that something in the
nature OF grain or livestock process
ing plant was about all that could be
hoped for.
This suggested. above all other pos
sib:lities, a packing plant There Is a
feeling that perhaps one Of the big
Chicago packers might be induced to
establish a branch here. Whether
such negotiations will be undertaken
later depends on the conclusion the
association will reach when the group
conferences have been completed and
the annual meeting can take up their
suggestions.
One Suggests Dog Law
@. w. Madison, manager Of the
Hughes electric plant. gave the meet
ing the benefit of observations he
made in a residence in jefferson City,
Missouri, where certain industries
were induced to locate and greatly
contributed to the prosperity and
growth OF that capital city. He sug-
gested that some big school would
be a big asset to Bismarck, il such
could be established here.
The wide variety suggestions con-
tinucd through the group meetings
One suggestion Is that a dog law be
enacted by the city commission. The
demand for better traffic regulations
Is coming up in several forms in adj
diiton TO the prior suggestion for

Somebody fearful that the Fourth of
July celebration might fall through.

nent annual event.
Suggestions on Streets and Roads
SILL another suggestion was that
the highways entering the city all be
arched at the city limits and that
welcome greetings be painted on these
a.rtcs to greet incoming buyers from
the country and tourists passing
II. s.=h. Closely associated with the |
proposal was another that the tourist |
camp be improved.
There also was suggestion that an |
all-tIme program of road improve
ment be worked out and that all |
roads ding into the city be de-
veloped.
The idea of boulevard Identification
has come up on several cards. Inaug-
uration Of better boulevard" cam
paign is being urged. One such pro-
posal was brought before the city |
commission recently by H. A. Mutch- |
Ter, on behalf Of the East End I'm

privilege OF planting shrubbery and
Towers and trees along Rosser ave-
nue between the eastern and western

add still other projects to the list al

cred itself extremely fortunate to win

However, hope springs eternal in the hui

Probably our outstanding achievement
to date is that Of defeating Vincennes by
a score of SIS to % on Vincenes' floor,

Ancient Links Rivals in Top
Form; Farrell Meets
Watrous.

BIZ United Press
LOS ANGELES, Dec. 6.-The
largest crowd of spectators so far
during the national professional
golf tournament was at the links of
the Hillcrest Country Club here to-
day when four of the countryS
greatest golfers met in the semi
final round for the championship.
Leo Diegel, present champion and
Walter Hagen, from whom the Aqua
Caliente golfer took the crown at
Baltimore a year ago, resumed their
ancient battle for supremacy, each
in top form.
Johnny Farrell, national open
champion, who came from behind
to defeat Craig Wood and win his
way into the semi-f1nals, faced Al
Watrous of Detroit in the other
match.
Confronted with the probability of
being eliminated from the tourna-
ment, Farrell put forth all his power
and wizardry on the last nine and
extra winning hole, he had six parS
and four brides.
Hagen eliminated Tony Manero of
New York, 6 and 5, while Diegel
dropped Gene Sarazen, 3 and 2.

apparently is no exception. The
state champions have tumbled Mum

Take the first four teams, mix 'em
up and what have you gothic best
team in the state. TruthfuIly, we like
Horace Mann, but they've only played
two games, and one of them they lost
to Washington, 10 to IS. But they
had only four days of practice, four
of the first stringers having ended the
football season just five days preceding
the Hatchet encounter. We rank Frank

Here are the first contributions, of
which I hope there will be many. They
speak for themselves. The first says:
Dear Blackboard: Here's to Techl (Long

players did not have any practice to-
gether, but when you figure that Emmett

it makes great difference. I think that

had practiced together. last years team
would have won by to 16 points, from
