KAYE DON PREDICTS
CARS WILL TRAVEL
800 Miles AN HOUR
Tires and Wheels Are Biggest
Problems Now In Speedy
Land Travel
Nv z GILL

Daytona Beach, Fla, Mar. 15.-R
Prediction that q land speed OF
800 miles per hour or more would be
established within the next few years
was made today by Kaye Don, Brit
ish race a driver, here awaiting
favorable beach and weather ono
lions to make an assault upon the
worlds automobile straightaway rec
ord Of 231 miles an hour.
He declared he could make no
estimate Of what the actual land
speed limit would be but said that
with the present rapid development
In the automobile industry the time
is not far distant when the present
record would be considered "slow."
"Just what the exact limit will be-"
he said, lis something no n knows.
When Sir Henry Segrave did 23l here
last year the world was astounded
and declared the mark never would
be surpassed. Since he has done 23l
It is not unreasonable for some one to
do 24O or $50 or 300 or more.
Really the most important detail
Of a high speed car is its tires, IN the
final analysis. For q al can be only
as fast as its tires will permit. There
is nothing on the car that will be sub
ject to greater stress than the tires.
I have been assured that the tire
equipment on my a will be safe up
| to 800 miles an hour.
"When speed records higher than
| that are set I believe some new de-
f! nart,,re in tire construction must be
made to Withstand the terrific CEN
trifugal force exerted by wheels
! travelling at that speed. Probably the
day then will come when steel tires
or some material other than rubber
| will be used.
indications are that it will be a.
least Monday before weather ant
beach conditions will permit the Eng
fish driver to make test runs ant
probably the middle Of next weel
before the actual official record
breaking attempt can be staged.

BISMARCK CORN IS
ADOPTED BY RUSSIA
Trial Of Wilt Company Varieties
Convjnces Soviets Il Is
Their Type

Corn has been grown In southern
Russia for several centuries but the
varieties grown there are such as are
grown in Ohio and Illinois. In cen
trail Russia the claim always was con-
sidered too late for corn, just as 1t
was in North Dakota not so many
years ago.
During the past ten years, however,
many agricultural scientists from
Russia have been visiting and study
ing in this country, and they have
heard Of the early and hardy varie-
ties Of corn grown in the Northwest.
In fact, q number Of them have per-
sonally visited Bismarck to inspect
the breeding plots and contract corr
fields Of Oscar H. Will & Co.. and
the Mandan experiment station.
AS a result of these visits, trial or
ders of such Burleigh county varie-
ties as Falconer. Gehu. Dakota ano
Burleigh County Mixed have beer
sent from here to Russia for the past
five or six years.
Apparently the trials OF these
hardy types of corn in central ane
north central Russia have been sue
cessful, for this year the pioneer seed
house has been called upon to fur
nish a full carload of Falconer. Da'
kota white flint and Burleigh Count!
mixed flint for export from New
York.
Every package consisted OF on
sack within another, sewed, stencille'
with variety name. grade, soviet I'M
port number and order number. to
gether with a serial number for eacl
sack. and the whole shipment had t
have accompanying it some % separ
ate documents of various kinds.

COUNTY BOARD ASKS
SUPPORT FOR new
court House plan
George Will, President, Out in
Statement Urging Need OF
Proposed Building

Formal approval, voicing the fact
that the board of county commission
ers is not perfunctorily back of the
new court house proposal but favors
it's ratification by the voters Tuesday,
was given the proposed $250,000 bond
issue, today, by George Will. president
of the board, in q statement issued
over his signature. OF the proposed
new building. his statement said:
Lest there be ON misunderstand-
ing as to the attitude of the county
commissioners toward the new court
house. I should like to make the fol-
lowing statement. both on behalf OF
the other members Of the board and
of myself:
"The board, Of course. felt itself
practically under q mandate to bring
the matter up, owing both to personal
appeals to its members from all sides
and to the recommendation OF the
grand Jury q year ago. In addition,
the board has recognized. perhaps
better than anyone else except the
county officers, the really shocking
conditions existing in the building.
More than once the matter OF new
and safe vault space outside the pres
ent building to accommodate one Of
flee OF several has been investigated
and estimates obtained and the re-
suits in expense and inconvenience
have been SO hopeless that such plans
had to be abandoned.
every member of board knows that
the building is q fire trap OF the
worst sort. unsanitary and unhealthy,
that the county records are In danger
everv minute and that the jail. IN
spite of every effort to take care OF
it. is DANGEROUS and filthy.
FURTHER, the heating plant Is ex-
pensive to operate beyond all reason
inefficient, and far from safe undei
the general conditions OF the anti
quated basement. .,.
have done well in divorcing the com.
munity building from the court house
we shan have the two buildings. eacf
built entirely for the purpose To-
which it is intended and eacf
thoroughly efficient for its own pur'
nose. with no sacrifice of efficiency TX
make it fit with an altogether DIFF
ferent type Of need, at a cost NJ
greater than that of the single com.
bination building, where county worl
and public business would be contin
ually subject to the Interruptions an
Inconvenience Of community activi
ties. Minot and Valley City hav
paid about $4,000 each for sucl
combination buildings. Bismarc
can have q magnificent communit
building and q handsome, well
! planned, roomy and dignified cour
house, all 1T Q cost Of not over $3.50,
600, and perhaps less.
II am sure that ! voice the opinio
al. every member Of the board whe
I express our unqualified approval
the new court house proposal.
