GRAND FORKS HERALD
OBSERVES 5OTH YEAR

The Grand Forks Herald, Wednes.
day. celebrated its fiftieth anniversary
by issuing an anniversary number of
rs pages. Four of these consisted of
a reprint Of the initial number of the
paper, June Is, 1879. In addition to
the usual news section, there is a sup
Elementary section dealing with the
history of the paper and the indus
trial, agricultural, financial and other
activities Of the city and the Red
River valley.
The edition is filled with cuts of
those who have been identified with
the paper. from its founder, George
B. Winship, down to the present. One
Of these is H. D. Bacon, founder of
the Grand Forks Times, subsequently
and for many years president Of the
Herald company after the consolida-
ton Of the two properties. There also
is q picture of the plant.
Mr.. Bacon expresses his regret at
scvering connections with the paper
after such a long service. Melvin NJ.
Oppegard, of the new interests which
have bought the Herald. makes his
bow to the papers constituency with
a pledge that the high standard Of
service of the Herald in the past will
continue to guide the new owners.
w. p. Davies tells the history of the
paper as dictated to him by G.. E.
Winship at his home. in San Diego.
The edition is jourlaliStically and
historically interesting in many fea-
lures. The copy Of the original num-
Der from which the reproduction was
made Is a torn copy, the lower right

HOPES DW|NDL|NG
FOR LONG RECESS
Hoover Insists on Farm Bill
and Tariff Agreement
Before Adiourning.

In view of President Hoover's in
sistence that Congress indulge in no
prolonged recess unless the farm relief
bill is out of the way and definite
date is agreed upon for vote on the
tariff revision legislation, including the
conference report, the proposed all
Summer vacation of Congress is being
looked upon as by no means a sure
thing.
Besides the Presidents determina-
of prominent Republican Senators as
we'll as some Democrats, who are op-
posed to long recess. These develop
ments have given rise to inside talk in
Republican congressional circles that
all this talk about Summer vacation
on the part Of Congress might fade
away.
President Hoover bases his demands
upon the fact he considers the inter-
ests of the country necessitate a rapid
determination of farm relief and tariff
revision.
To make his position more fully un-
derstood the President made the fol-
lowing statement at his conference yes
respondents:
"The majority leaders, both Senator
Watson and Congressman Tilson, are
united in their recommendation to ME
that there should be no recess in the
special session until farm legislation is
complete and that there should be no
recess after that except for a few
weeks to accommodate the Senate
finance committee in its hearings on the
tariff bill unless there Is completely
fixed agreement In the Senate as 70 an
early date upon which vote will be
taken on the bill, with further agreed
period for debate on the conference
reports, which would assure final vote
In the Senate as early as possible. The
interest of the country obviously neces-
states the rapid determination of both
these questions. and l am entirely in
accord with their views"
If the proposed long recess dwindles
to vacation of about month, Mr..
Hoover will not be disappointed. He
and Mrs. Hoover have no plans for the
Summer. If Congress takes long re-
cess it is thought likely they will go
or four weeks and will spend the rest
of the time travelling. In any event
the President will not leave Washington
before the first of July. He will divide
his time between Washington and the
fishing preserves in Shenandoah Ma
tional Park. in Virginia, Hunting Greek,
near Catoctin Furnace, Md, and other
fishing holes not too far distant from
the Capital, if short recess is decided
upon or If no recess is taken.

Steam Pipe Blows Out,
Wrecking Machinery at Plant
on Fourteenth Street.
FIREMEN ARE BURNED
IN ATTEMPT AT RESCUE
Top of Victims Head Torn OFF
When Wheel Flies OFF and
Strikes Him.

One man was killed and three fire.
men injured when a steam pipe blew
out and wrecked the machinery at the
Elite Laundry, 2119 Fourteenth street.
shortly after noon today.
Howard Christopher, Seat Pleasant,
Md, colored, was instantly killed. The
top of his head was torn off when
fywheel in the laundry machinery few
off and hit him.
The injured firemen are Sergt. Z. j.
Carroll, D. B. Leahy and I. C. Kipplin
of No. / Rescue Squad. They were
burned about the hands and face
when they went down into the steam
filled basement where Christopher was
killed. Leahy managed to get Christo-
piers body out of the pit where it
had been knocked by the fiywheel,
while Sergt Carroll braved the kissing
steam to cut off the valve leading to
the break.
More than 1000 persons gathered at
the scene while both of the city rescue
squads worked to clear the laundry
basement of the steam and water.
Traffic Is Tied Up.
More than a hundred employees in
the main building of the laundry es-
capped safely when steam began to es-
cape into the first floor. Traffic on
Fourteenth street was tied UP tempo
rarily as numerous fire companies, an
ambulance. the two fire rescue trucks
and police responded to calls for help.
Witnesses say that Christopher, pass
ing along the alley back of the laundry
building heard steam kissing and has
tened to the engine room to prevent an
accident. Apparently, he got there
just as the hywheel flew off. 1t was
thought that he was the only employe
in the engine room at the time Of the
accident. Clarence Lane, colored en-
ploye in the washroom, hearing Of the
accident, ran to an adjunct Of the
laundry to shut off steam valves there.
The dead man was placed in All
Emergency Hospital ambulance and
taken to the hospital.
The laundry company is headed by
Fran Avaleer. 1t was not apparent
that any great damage had been done
to the property by the accident.

PRESIDENT CANCELS
PLANNED FISHING TRIP
Decides to Remain in Washington
and Holds Long Conference
With Secretary Adams.

President Hoover decided today not
to go to the fishing preserve at Catoctin
Furnace. Md, as had been planned by
him yesterday. No explanation was
given by the Executive for his change
of mind, but it is believed that he pre-
ferred to remain at the White House
to dispose of some accumulating busi-
ness.
In anticipation of Saturday holiday,
the President had made no business en-
gagements for today, but when he
changed his plans he sent for Secretary
Adams of the Navy Department and
was in conference with him for nearly
an hour
1t is thought likely that the Presi-
dent might go tor a motor ride In near
by Virginia or Maryland late this aft
ernoon. Mrs. Hoover, who is in Boston
today, will be given an honorary de-
gree at Swarthmore College on Monday,
is not expected to return to the White
House before Monday night.

SCHENCK ATTEMPTS
HANGING IN CELL.
Guard Cuts Down Former
Policeman Sentenced to
Serve 20 Years for Robbery.

Sentenced yesterday to serve 20 years
in prison for two robberies, Frederick A.
Schenck, former Washington policeman,
attempted to commit suicide by hanging
himself from the barred window of his
cell in the District Jail last night using
his blanket for the moose.
He was cut down by Vincent L. Koree,
guard, who in the course of his
rounds saw him hanging by his neck
with his feet doubled up under him, the
window being so low that if he had
Strengthened his body his feet would
have touched the floor.
Schenck used the blanket by cutting
it in narrow strips. On one end he
made moose and the other he tied to
the bars of his cell window.
The attempt to take his life occurred
about o'clock. All the prisoners were
in their cells and no one except the
guards on duty we're in the corridors.
Schenck's cell is on the upper tier of
the south wing of the institution and
view of the interior of it cannot be
had from any of the other cells.
When cut down the former police
man was still conscious, although weak
ened by strangulation. A physician was
summoned, out it was not necessary to
remove him from the cell.
When he had completely recovered
he told Maj. William l.. Peak, Superin-
tendent of the jail, that he was sorry
and ashamed that he had attempted
suicide and that he must have been
half crazy after receiving the long
prison sentence"
