.HURRY|NC TO SECURE
enough SIGNATURES
FOR STATE PETITION
Workers for Prohibition Modifi-
cation Will File Papers; Un.
certain Of AcceptabiIity

A last minute effort to obtain suf-
ficient signatures on a petition to
initiate a measure memorializing
congress to modify the prohibition
laws was being made today.
Whether petitions conta i n e
enough names to initiate the proposal
would be available before the office Of
the secretary Of state closed today
appeared uncertain. The deadline
for filing the petitions is 5 p. m.
today.
J. A. Danielson of Minot, represent
tative of the supporters of the pro-
posal, said he obtained sufficient
names, but that many lacked the
necessary affidavit stating the sig
natures had been witnessed. On a
number of other petitions, the affi-
davit appeared to be defective, he said.
Petitions have been arriving on
| every train today, Danielson declared,
and he hoped that by late afternoon
there would be enough names to take
the place of those which are not reg
ular in form.
The petitions will be submitted to
the secretary of state, Danielson said,
regardless of form. He stated he had
the required 10000 signatures but
realized some of these would not be
acceptable.
Can't Get Affidayits
The greatest difficulty encountered,
Danielson stated, was in obtaining
affidavits.
A previous petition to initiate q
measure for the repeal of the state
prohibition laws, also lacked many
affidavits. This petition, although
containing more than the required
10000 names, was rejected by the
secretary of state on the ground that
it was defective. Secretary of State
Robert Byrne held that the petition
ers did not meet the requirement of
the law providing that each individual
petition must be accompanied by an
affidavit.
Mandamus proceedings are now
pending in the state supreme court to
compel the secretary of state to ac-
cept the first petition. The commit
tee OF Petitioners contend the statute
requiring affidavits constitute an OBJ
struction to the initiative law.
Danielson said that approximately
5000 signatures were available on the
petition for the memorial proposal.

HE RULES INTEREST
RATES UP TO BANKS
Attorney General Morris Holds
That Repeal Of Guaranty
Act Brings Change

The statute giving the Guaranty
Fund commission authority to limit
rates of interests which state banks
may pay on deposits became iropera-
tive as a result of repeal Of the Guar
anty act, according to an opinion is
sued by Attorney General James
Morris. .
Morris ruled in the matter at the
request OF A. M. Brant, Watford City,
who. asked whether, after the COM
mission is dissolved next September,
the banks may use their own judg-
ment as to the rate of interest they
can pay or deposits"
The statute provided for a fiuctu-
ating limit of interest rates subject
to the action Of the depositors' guar
anty fund commission within the
limits of 4 and 6 per cent. both In
elusive.
The dissolution Of the guaranty
fund commission removes from ex-
istence the commission having con-
troll over the interest rates under tie
statute, the attorney general said.
1T also removes from existence the
guaranty fund, for the benefit OF
which the interest rate limit was pro-
vided," the opinion stated.
The supreme court has ruled, Nor
ris pointed out, that a provision in a
depositors' guaranty law limiting
rates of interest than banks shall be
permitted to pay on deposits can be
inserted for but n object, the pro-
lection Of the guaranty fund against
the consequences of loose banking
methods"
Section 5220b12. 1925 Supplment to
the Compiled Laws, which contains
the provision Of a Limitation of in
terest, was repealed when the voters
on referendum at the June Is pri-
mary repealed the guaranty fund act,
Morris said. The repeal is now in
effect.

ABOUT FINE FLORIDA TRIP

The following account Of Flor
ida trip was written by Mrs. ChaS.
Lavery of Columbus, and read be-
fore her Sunday school class. Mrs.
Lavery is a sister of Mrs. Lillian
Anderson of Malta, and of Chas
L. Johnson of GAINESVILLE route:
We left Columbus, O.. in the snow
on Saturday, Jan. 25, staid over
Sunday with our cousins near Green
field. Showing Monday morning
when we started for Cincinnati.
From there our road was through
the blue grass country, covered with
snow, to Lexington, Ky. The farth-
er we went the more crooked the
road became, until after many ups
and downs and round and round we
came to Cumberland Gap where we
climbed out and took a look at the
gap. Here was beautiful. rugged
scenery all around.
We wound down the other side
of the mountain. into the little town
of Cumberland Gap, where We spent
the night in new, clean hotel,
where there was the incest shiny
black porter with the biggest smile.
He came out as we drove up, and
my husband said. do you have this
hoteI?" He smiled broadly and
said "Yes sah.' Then l said do
again he showed a lot of big white
teeth and said ''Yes ma am SO we
proceeded to unload dog, baggage
and all Only two hotels on our
whole trip refused lodging to Peggy,
and husband said 'Oh well. they
weren't either one much as hotels
anyway"
Next morning. after breakfast
of hot biscuits, etc, we looped few
more loops across Tennessee, to
Chattanooga, and entered the city
through a tunnel under Missionary
Ridge Guess it showed all night,
by the depth of snow on the streets
next morning. Had our chains put
ON here for we were told there was
a bad hill just south of town. On
our road to Atlanta We passed
through Chicamauga Battlefield
Park, where there are many me-
MORALS erected to the memory Of
soldiers of the Civil war, from the
different states. Atlanta still had
some of her unusual" snow when
we arrived.
Didn't stay here long, for we
were on hunt OF Florida sunshine.
The roads We're now smooth and
straight. and we rolled right on in
TO Lake City, Fla, where folks were
sitting il a park listening to con
cert. We are a bit old fashioned.
because We wear heayies in winter,
and here We began to think summer
was approaching. and when we got
on down TO Miami about 400 miles
farther south, she was right there
waiting for us.

living aq Lere IN the cold and snow,
