MICROSCOPE FINDS
MALARIAIN DAKOTA
BacterioIogist EckIund Discov-
ers Infection Brought
in From Texas

Something of a meteorological
novelty for North Dakota came under
the observation of DR.. A.. w. Ecklund,
bacteriologist at the local state
laboratory. during his May activities,
when he identified a case of malaria
fever, q are infection in this state.
The patient had come here from
Texas and evidently had been bitten
by an infected mosquito in that state.
The organism causing malaria is
found by placing a drop Of the sick
PERSONS blood on a slide, staining it
and examining it under a microscope.
The malaria parasite may then be
found inside the red blood corpuscles
and identified.
During May Oh. Ecklund made a
total of 523 examinations and fur
nished $50 outfits to the various ply
SicianS and health officers in the
laboratory territory for sending in in
lection specimens. These examina-
tons were three more than In May,
1929. The examinations for respir-
atory diseases are decreasing such
as diphtheria, tuberculosis, meningitis
and other air-borne infections. Was
serman tests remain about the same,

increasing.

cause it makes good. Konjola has
won-and kept-more than a million
friends because it wins triumph after
triumph when all else tried has failed.
If you would know how Konjola works,
then hear of countless cases like thai
of MIR. Ira Hoge. farmer, whose ad-
dress is r. F. D. No. l, Bismarck. Yet
his case is but one of tens of thou
sands that fill Konjola's files almost
to overlooking. Why not follow in
the footsteps Of those who found
health in Konjola?
About three years ago rheumatism
attacked me. and only those who have
had this dread ailment know how 1suf-
fered. I experienced sharp pains IN
my legs, knees and ankles. My knees
then became stiff and sore and my
ankles were swollen to almost twice
their normal size. During damp
weather I could scarcely walk, and
this greatly interfered with my work
on the farm. Constipation added to
my misery, and I could find nothing
to give me any lasting relief.
II read and heard many good re-
| ports about Konjola from Bismarck
people, and / decided to put this new
medicine to test. Imagine my sur
prise when after taking only two
bottles I was completely relieved of
those sharp rheumatic pains. In all
I took four bottles of Konjola and
now all the stiffness and soreness IS
gone. My bowels act normally. and
I feel better generally than I have
for years."
A typical example Of Konjola In
action! A sincere tribute to a medl-
cine Of unusual merit! All that. Is
asked for Konjola is that it be given
q chance to prove its powers.
Konjola is sold in Bismarck at the

Finally, in 1925, the navy approved
plan for an arctic flight.
Byrd thereupon went north with the
National Geographic society's expedi-
ton, flying more than 5000 miles over
arctic territory. In the following year
he realized his boyhood ambition by
flying over the north pole with Floyd
Bennett. accomplishing the 1,360-mile
hop in 1872 hours.
The next year came his famous
flight from New York to France-a
flight that nearly met disaster be-
cause of violent storms. and that fl
nally ended when the plane landed
in the surf along the French coast.
In this flight Byrd and his three
companions flew 1900 miles in AZ
hours.
Then came the antarctic expedi-
ton, which reached its climax last
November when Byrd became the
first man to fly over the south pole.
And now he's coming home again
to what? More aerial exploration,
probably-but where? What is there
left for this flying explorer to do?

A reduction of street car and
bus fares to at least three cents
for school children going to and
from public schools seemed
nearer Congressional approval to-
day than at any time during the
several years it has been agitated.
This outlook was based upon
the action Of the Senate District
committee late yesterday in
amending a House bill to pro-
vide for a three-Cent fare instead
of the two-cent provision in the
House bill.
That a conference committee OF
the two houses will agree upon
either a two-cent or three-cent
fare, or, possibly in compromise,
upon a De cent fare, was pre-
dicted today.
In recommending the three
cent figure the Senate Committee
scaled down the proposal Of Sen
ator Kean, New Jersey, that the
House bill be amended to provide
only half fares" for school chill
dren, which would mean 4-cent
cash fare. Senator Kean said
several times he was afraid either
a free carfare bill or a 2-cent car
fare bill would mean an early
increase in adult fares to make
up for losses incurred by the
transportation agencies.
Seek Higher Fare
William NICK. Clayton. repre-
senting various civic organiza-
tions, reminded Senator Kean
that the street car companies. ir.
respective of the school children'S

pending in the courts an appllca-
ton for a l0-cent cash fare. The
Senator was also so reminded by
John J. Noonan, volunteer and
unofficial advocate of a reduced
fare for the poorer school chill
dren of the District.
Going rather eloquently over
the arguments he had made be-
fore the House District Commit
tee, Noonan, a retired capitalist
and one-time large Stockholder
in a public utility here, told the
Senate committee that approXi.

Auto Liability Bill Placed
On Senate Calendar

Although Senator Robson, Ken.
lucky, expressed belief that GER
tain of its provisions seemed too
drastic, the Senate District Com
mittee today placed on the Senate
calendar. for probable action dur
ing this session, the Capper-Mc-
Leod automobile insurance liza
bility bill for motorists of the
National Capital.
At meeting late yesterday, the
Senate District Committee or.
dered favorable report on the
bill.
1t was asserted that the meas
ure is not one of compulsory
automobile insurance" but merely
provides that any District auto
mobile owner or chauffeur who
has had an operating license re-
voked because Of serious infrac-
tions of the traffic laws must give
insurance or bond before the Traf-
fic Director issues a new license.
Traffic Director Harland and
Assistant Director Eldridge ap-
peared before the Senate Commit
tee in support of the bill as
passed by the House, with en-
dorSement of the American Auto
mobile Association. Tacitly ad-
mitting that Senator Robsion's
criticisms were justified they tes-
titled that traffic conditions in
Washington have reached such a
stage that additional corrective
legislation is necessary.
Director Harland explained the
bill as applying to the following
classes Of traffic offenders:

REP. REID PLANS
To QUESTION
/. MEMBERS
will Call Them Before House
Group Unless Matter Is
Strengthened by Thursday

Informed that the Board of
Education imposes an alleged
gag rule" on teachers which
prevents their appearance before
committees of Congress. it was the
purpose today of Chairman Reid.
OF the House District subcommit-
tee on education, to summon
members of the board before his
subcommittee If they punish
teachers who have so appeared,
or who later appear.
The subcommittee held a brief
hearing last night at which Ed
ward F. McGrady, of the Ameri-
can Federation of Labor, urged
legislation to kill the gag rule.
Teachers Inundated
Reid asked if the teachers were
too timid to appear in their own
behalf on the gag" question and
McGrady responded:
"WelI, let us call it timid."
Chairman Reid then suggested
that the controversy be held over
until the Board of Education
holds its regular weekly meeting.
If the issue is not Strengthened
out by the board. Reid said he
would call his committee together
again Thursday night to consider
the bill and McGrady agreed.
Reid also said he would sum-
mon school board members if
they discipline teachers for petit
t1oning Congress or taking part in
public affairs.
Election Bill Postponed
McGrady said it was unbeliev-
aele that anyone must come to
Congress in enlightened age to
ask legislation to keep teachers
from being gagged" by their
Superiors.
The Reid subcommittee in
definitely postponed action on
the elective school board measure.

he believed a long fight was

sion would be authorized to issue

QUESTION
SOLDIER
Army Medical Board Decides
SeIf.ConfesSed Killer OF Mary
Baker Legally Sane

Howard L. Brewster, soldier
who confessed and then denied
killing Mary Baker, was found to
be sane with "an appreciation Of
right and wrong and normal con-
troll over his actions" by the
Army Medical Board, it was an
nounced today.
Commonwealth Attorney Will
liam C. Cloth, Of Arlington
county. Va, expressed his inten-
ton of swearing out warrant
for the soldier and calling upon
Captain Boiling. in charge OF
headquarters company, to hand
over Brewster to him this after
noon.
Will Surrender Him
Captain Boiling has received no
official word of the findings OF
the medical board but declared
that if Cloth appears with a war
rant charging murder or any
specific crime, Brewster will be
handed over Immediately.
The statement issued today by
the Third Corps Area headQuar-
ters in Baltimore said:
"The board of medical Of
ficerS which examined Private
Brewster held him under ObSer-
vatiOn from May 20 to %, and
found he was of sound mind
and was susceptible to ordinary
tive of right and wrong. and
had normal control over his ac-
tiOrs, but was of low mental
development"
Under the articles Of war Cap
tain Boiling is required to hand
the soldier over to civil authorl-
ties only if a warrant is issued
charging some specific offense.
Cloth said that if Brewster
voluntarily agrees to accompany
him to Arlington county and re.
main a prisoner" until his status
in the case has been definitely
settled, the murder warrant will
not be served.
Inspector Shelby and Lieut..
Kelly, of the Washington police,
will confer with Cloth and aid
in again questioning the soldier.
The fact that the medical
board said that he has a low
mental capacity is thought to be
significant and may eventually
explain his confession.
Face Army Board
Brewster will be brought before
an Army board IN the event that
he is eventually cleared Of the
accusation in connection with this
murder, which will decide whether
he should be discharged from the
Army. The charge which will be
lodged against him in this event
is that he possesses habits and
traits of character which render
him undesirable for military SER
vice"
In the midst of all these COM
plicationS, Brewster remained
cheerful and unconcerned. Ap-
parently he has no realization Of
the seriousness of what is ahead
of him.
He will be taken to Arlington
county jail, if he is arrested on
the murder warrant, and sub
iected to an intense grilllng for
hours at time.
Today he appeared smiling.
His chief concern was about q
clean 20. D." shirt. His com.
mandlng officer promised to ses
that he was supplied.
Has Had Holiday
His detainment in the guard
house at Eighteenth and c Sts.
has been for him a holiday. He
has just received his months
pay which amounted to $23.1O.
He has been spending some Of
it for luxuries such as cigars,
fruit and candy.
He eats as much as three men.
This morning his breakfast con-
sisted of three pieces of toast
piled high with Clipped beef, cof-
fee, bread and butter. Four or
five eggs in the morning is not
unusual, his attendants report.
