PERMITS ERECTION
Of DORMYORIES AT
STATE INSTITUTIONS
Non.Profit. Sharing Holding As.
sociations Granted Right
to House Students
HIGH COURT MAKES RULING
Mihion.D Dollar Construction Pro-
gram, Held Up by Legal
Fight, to Go Forward

Decision that the 1929 law authoriz.
ing institutional holding associations
to build and operate dormitorieS at
state educational institution Is con-
stitutional was made by the supreme
court today.
The decision permits construction
at numerous state educational instt-
lions Of dormitiories needed to house
the student body. Buildings which
probably will be built within the next
few years under the statute may total
more than 81, 100000 In value.
In February 1928 the court held
unconstitutional an act intended to
accomplish the same purpose. passed
as the 1927 session. The 1920 enact
ment was intended to accomplish the
same purpose.
In an action in the Burleigh county
district court. Maurice Kaufman,
Fargo, sought to enjoin the state
board Of administration from con-
structing dormitories In accordance
with the law. He contended that the
enactment delegated legislative power
to the board Of administration; that
1t authorized the transfer or leasing
Of land granted by the federal gov
eminent for the support Of the state
agricultural college: that It diverted
the control o. the institution from the
state board Of administration; that IT
provided for donations by the state
to the proposed holding associations
ana for loaning them state credit;
that It violated the constitutional pro-
vision recurring all laws Of 2 general
nature to have uniform operation and
that It authorized the state board Of
administration to create debts on the
par Of the state.
The lower court sustained q demur-
rer interposed by the state and now
has been sustained b. high court.
Although aimed ct stopping construc-
ton Of q dormitory at the state asri-
cultural college where building oper-
atoms were begun following enact
ment of thc 1927 statute, the suit
halted operations under the law at
numerous institutions. among the
state university, the Minot. Mayvtlle.
and Valley City State Teachers col
leges and the normal and industrial
school at Glendale.
Under the Ia the holding assoct-
atoms authorized to build such dor
mitorieJ are to be non-profit shartng.
The dormitories are to be paid Tor
out Of receipts collected from the
student body as rental. The 1870 law
differs from that Of 1927, In that 1t
does not permit the pledging OF In
come from other dormitorieS to meet
the obligation Of the institutional
holding association.

KENNEwICK RESIDENT
CLAIMS AGE RECORD

= Claims that he is the oldest
person with an agriculture exhibit
In the thirty-fourth annual Wash
ington State fair were made yes
terday by ]. F. Perry of Kennewick
who guards the agricultural and
horticultural exhibit of Benton
county. Perry is SO years old, he
said. He scored wins in the agri-
cultural division several years ago.
Three years ago, he stopped enter
ing the exhibit because Of his age
and because he only got second
place when he had been used to
getting first place, he explained.
He was in direct charge of the ex-
hibits for nine years. The exhibit
this year is under the direction of
the county agent, but Perry sat
beside it all day and told persons
who viewed it of the products of
Benton county. He will remain
there during the remainder of the
week.

TAKES POT SHOT AT
GASOLINE THIEVES

skinny" Hutchins is getting
tired of being robbed. He has be-
come so peeved about the matter
that recently he got permission to
use a gun. He bought a big, long,
wicked-looking gat and has been
itching to have a chance to use It.
He got the chance.
The other night he heard prowl-
ers out around his car, grabbed
his new gun and took out after
'em. Saw two men stealing gas
from his car. He shot once over
their heads and the next time shot
at 'em. With a yell one of the
thieves dropped his can and took
to his heels.
Floyd and his cousin found q car
backed up into the weeds along the
road and called the cops. They are
waiting for someone with q brand
new burn to come and claim it.
Archie Brown is seriously con-
sidering the purchase Of a gun,
too. While he was at the fair Sat
urday someone entered his home
and got away with a suit case,
clothing and food.
