Soldier Is Jailed
On Weapon Charge

After pleading guilty in distric'
court to a charge Of carrying con.
cealed weapons, Gordon Williamson
Fl. Lincoln. Monday was sentenced
by Fred J~ansonius to six months in
the county jail.
Originally charged with first degree
robbery in connection with the hold
up of Louis Klein, local taxi driver,
July 2, Williamson pleaded guilty to
the less serious charge after testi-
mony had been heard tending to
show there were extenuating circum-
stances.
Kline testified that Williamson had
apparently been al unwilling accom-
plice to Ernest Portwood. now serv-
ing a five-year sentence for the same
crime. He said Portwood had threat
ened Williamson with a gun and
ordered him to go through with the
robbery.

Receipts, therefore, for the first six
months of 1881. are $9,230.90 below
the average for the same months of
the four preceding years, while our
payments are 4 8.210.64 above the av-
erage for those same years. That
means that our reserves have been
invaded" to the extent Of $57 AL "a
during the first six months Of 1891.
This. of course. is in addition to the
invasion of $78, 0 100 made by the
twelve months of 1880.
Our original estimates of two
months ago, upon the basis Of which
we declined to make an increase In
the general level premium rates. al
though encouraged to do so by con-
sulting actuarieS, are altered very
slightly by these actual figures, and
in u favor. Unless. therefore, the
two bad" months - April and Sep
ENTHUSIASTICALLY change this Gin
vasion process for the worse. we shall
be able to weather this depression Pc
riod satisfactorily. That does not
mean that those who are primarily
interested-the employers and the
workers-can play fast and loose"
with the situation. Every effort must
be made to prevent unnecessary acci-
dents. and we again make special
appeal to those counties in which the
accident record continues above the
average. Last months very bad

Cass, Dunn, Pembina and Richland.

the high records we r establishing

US about IS to 20 years to reach O

that the adoption Of this plan, or any

n q letter addressed to the general
public the state Workmen's cornpen-
sation bureau Monday revealed the
manner in which the fund is being
reduced by curtailed collections and
increased payments due to the exist
ing business situation.
The statement follows:
In view Of the fact that the Work.
mems Compensation Bureau has as
sumed the responsibility Of not in
creasing the general level Of premium
rates, Notwithstanding the inroads
being made by the general depression
and the consequent actuarial recon-
mendation to meet those inroads by
an increase in the general rate level.
it is felt advisable to keep the people
of the state informed as to the con-
tinuing status in order to elicit great
err cooperation and also to quiet any
possible fears there may be concern
ing our action in that respect.
Our figures are now complete for
the first six months of 1881. They
show the following result for each of
the years indicated:

the story he read of Jesus. who
had preached mildness and nom
resistance.
In 1893, a poor young lawyer,
he happened to be sent to South,
Africa on a case. He never re-
turned. Moved to the soul by the
condition of his fellow-country-
men, the social and legal discrim-
nations that existed against
them, he took up their cause.
Nevertheless. he did valiant work
for the British ambulance service
in the Boer War and was deco
rated. In the Zulu and World
Wars he again served in like ca
Dacity. But in South Africa he.
first learned the power of nom
resistance in fighting injustice,
and served in prison for his part
In the movement.
Moved by Conditions
He returned to India and saw
the AFFECT condition of the help
less millions of his countrymen.
In 1920 he launched on a ma
tional scale the movement for
non-co-operation with the British
rule, a plan that called on his fol-
lowers to refuse to appeal to Brit
ish courts, buy British fabrics, or
accept government positions and
titles. Cheerfully he went to
prison for his ideals. On e
ing in 1924. he Immediately re-
suIned his bloodless fight. He
lived the stern life of an anchor
lite, possessing nothing, asking
nothing, fasting, praying. Millions
1ocked to his cause, emulating his
sanity conduct. lying PROSTATE

Now, after his triumphai re-

the work that remains: forging
the beginnings of self govern

united multitude whose only rally
