OGDEN'S RULING
PAvES WAY FOR
TRUCK TRADING
Blocks LeSIie'S Out for
Failure to Go Through
With Program.

A plug" prepared by the attor-
ney-general's department today was
handed to the highway commission
to block Governor Hairy G. Les
lies out for failing to go through
with the purchase of motor equip
ment for the road department.
The plug" in the form of
opinion, declared that the commits
sion may trade in its used equip
men when purchasing new trucks,
after Leslie had declared that the
money should be used to provide
emergency work for the unem-
ployed and that the state road work
should be done with teams, rather
than with trucks so that more man
power could be used.
The opinion will be presented to
the commission Wednesday when it
conVeneS to discuss unemployment
relief and a general shake up.
Bids Were Advertised
In order to avoid purchasing the
trucks, for which bids had been
advertised and in accordance with
which thirty-nine leading truck
dealers had been waiting around
the commission offices for two days.
Leslie declared that inasmuch as
the department had lot of old
equipment which could not be trad
ed in on the new trucks, the pur
chase should be halted. e
Attorney-Ge James M. Og-
den then was asked for an opinion
1t was completely today and pro-
vides:
loo not find any express author
lty for the trading in of antiquated
motor equipment in the purchase
OF new equipment. The state high
way commission, however, essen
TALLY is a business agency of the
state entrusted with large powers
In the construction and mainte-
nance of an extensive network of
highways throughout the state.
Cites Broad Powers
II think the broad general pow
ers of the commission is the author
lty properly implied from it's ex-
pressed powers
The commission, in all probability,
Will consider the opinion and it's
bearing on the proposed emergency
unemployment relief program when
it meets Wednesday.
Originally announced that the
commission would spend approx
mately 100000 for trucks, this pro-
gram had setback when Governor
Leslie, returning suddenly from
Canada, declared that it would be
advisable to spend from $750,OOO to
$1,O0o,0oO of the highway mainte-
nance surplus to provide work for
between 5000 and 5000 men.

Wife HAS LOVE
BUTCHERS COIN,
POLICE CHARGE
Claim Mrs. Powers Admits
Receiving S3,657 on
Day of Arrest.

BU United Press
CLARKSBURG, w. Va, Sept. g.
Mrs. Luella Powers is alleged to
have admitted today that her hus-
band, Harry F. Powers, charged
with five "Bluebeard" killings, gave
her a check for $3,65763 last Aug.
n, the day Powers was arrested in
connection with the disappearance
Of Mrs. Asia Buick Eicher and her
three children from her home in
Parke Ridge, Ill.
At the same time police opened
Powers safe deposit box in the EN-
pire National bank here and found
it empty. Bank officials said its
contents had been removed Aug. 90,
the day the bodies of Mrs. Eicher
and her children were found buried
near Powers garage.
Police Chief Clarence A. Duck
worth conferred with District Attor-
ney VIII Morris today on the ques-
ton Of arresting Mrs. Powers and
her sister, Miss Eva Strouther. Nor
ris refused to advise an arrest and
was quoted as saying he would "or-
der the arrests when needed"
Both Are Watched
Both women have been under
close surveillance for several days
after police we're unable to elicit
any information concerning Powers
activities after repeated question
ings.
Duckworth and Detective Carl
Southern went to the Empire bank
today for Mrs. Powers bank book,
which she had promised them. They
discovered the deposit of $3,65763
and Mrs. Powers then admitted that
Powers had given her check for
the amount on the same day the
deposit was made, they said
Mrs. Powers was quoted by police
as saying her husband, charged
with beating and hanging Mrs.
Eicher, her three children and Mrs.
Dorothy A. Pressler Lemke, Wor-
cester, Mass, had given her only
$l2 since she married him.
seek missing Men
Three missing men were being
traced by police today in addition
to the scores OF women with whom
Powers corresponded through his
matrimonial agency in an effort to
determine whether there is any
connection with Powers activities.
The three men sought are
Charles S. Rogers" Pittsburgh; a
man by the name of Wade, Clarks-
burg, and Stamatos Sfikdas, also
of Clarksburg.
Search for Rogers was revived
after a Pittsburgh man reported to
police that he knew Rogers and that
he did not resemble Powers. Pow
ers frequently mentioned Rogers in
letters and said he had sold stock
with Rogers, whom he met in the
Oklahoma oil fields.
When arrested Powers said Rog-
ers was to have married Mrs. Eicher
and later said Rogers brought the
family to Clarksburg from Chicago.
Police at the time believed Rogers
only another alias, but the state
ment Of the Pittsburgh man revived
the search.
Powers Predecessor
Wade, former manager of a
vacuum sweeper sales force here,
disappeared just before Powers sue
ceeded him. Police have found lit
tie or no evidence of any connec-
ton between the two.
Sfikdas, proprietor of shoe shine
parlors here. disappeared last June
10. He was said to have been seen
with Powers few days before he
disappeared. He carried 500 in
cash and two 500 Liberty bonds at
the time, friends said. A Greek
lodge has asked police to check this
angle of the Powers case CLOSELY.

JUNIOR
Bismarck, April 20. 1881

Editor, Tribune:
In a recent issue Of the Junior Col
lege Journal there Is an article en-.
titled Development Of the Junior
College in iowa" by Clara Wallace
This article presents significant EVIL
dence concerning the growth and
status of the Junior college in Iowa..
It reveals that there r 70 junior
colleges In Iowa. The largest Of these
enrolls 1873 students, and the smallest
enrolls II students. The median en-
rollment is ATS.
Eight Of the high schools In the
systems of which these junior colleges
are a part enroll less than three hun
bred pupils. and twenty enroll les.
than five hundred pupils.
Seven Of the junior colleges are 10.
Gated in cities OF three thousand Of
less, and thirteen in cities Of more
than three thousand but less than siz
thousand. The rest n distributed
among cities ranging from six thou
sand up to between twenty-fou- thou.
sand and twenty-seven Thousand.
The, writer makes the point thai
many Of these junior colleges are too
small and are located in cities Of In.
sufficient size to properly support
them. But as many Of them are ol
relatively recent establishment. the,
will probably grow to become stable
units. /. 1.-THE junior college," the ar

In our preceding articles we have
explained the pitch count for valuing
no trump hands.
When this system is employed, 1t
will be found that three points will
average to take q trick. OF course

dummy without a trick Is at least two
tricks worse off than a dummy with
a possible in-card. The in-card will
take a trick and will then allow the
declarer to take a finesse which may
assist him to establish his suit before
opposition gets theirs established.
The count system Of valuing no
trumps is perhaps the most popular
system in the country today. While
it is used entirely for valuing hands
for no trump bidding in the quantt-

must not attempt to use the count
system in valuing hands for suit bids
which naturally are played under
totally different conditions.
