SAYS WHITE ADMITS
ROBB|NC BANK HERE
Police Chief Says He Obtained
information From Iowa
Officials

George White, alias The Turk" has
admitted to Iowa officials that he
participated in the robbery of the Da-
kota National Bank and Trust COM
pany in Bismarck Aug. 7, 1880, &C
cording to G. j. Martineson, Bismarck
police chief
Martineson said he was given this
information by Ray Scott, of the
Iowa bureau of criminal identified
ton, at Ipswich. S. D. Martineson
and Scott were at Ipswich to inter-
rogate robbers of the Bank of Fps
Wich short time ago.
The Turk, when arrested in Cali
fornia, wanted to come to North Da-
kota and plead guilty to the charge"
Martineson said Scott told him. Iowa
officials won his custody because
their warrant and officers were the
first to reach California after the
mans arrest, Martineson said. The
police chief said White implicated
four others in the Bismarck holdup.
White now is in Iowa awaiting trial
on charge Of participating in q
bank robbery at Calumet.
Martineson also said that Phil Ray,
one of the Ipswich robbers, confess
ed to him that he was invited to
participate in the Bismarck robbery
and even had made a visit to the
Capital City bank for inspection pur-
poses previous to the robbery. Ray,
however, denied that he participated
in the holdup.

Warns UNEMPLOYED
NOT TO COME HERE
Mayor A. P. Lenhart Says Bis.
marck Has no Work For
Non-Residents

A warning to "stay away from Bis
marck because there Is no work for
you here was broadcast to unem-
ployed throughout the northwest and
nation Saturday by A. p. Lenhart,
president of the Bismarck city COM
mission.
Lenhart said many transients have
come here with the hope of obtain
ing employment during the construc-
ton of the new state capitol, but
pointed out that no labor is needed
here for that project or any other
undertaking.
At the same time, on slips of paper
mailed to city residents with their
May water statements, the city adj
ministration asked housewives not to
feed transients since that encourages
a greater influx of unemployed.
This city has serious unemploy-
ment and relief problem" the state
ment said. "Transients and non-res-
idents are complicating 1t. Our own
people must be given first considera-
ton. Cooperating relief agencies ask
your assistance by not giving work
or meals to non-residents who call at
your homes or places Of business"
The local Red Cross, Salvation
Army and police headquarters have
been swamped for several days with
requests for aid from unemployed
"floaterS," Lenhart said.

Effective Use of New Wells
BY MARY MARSHALL.

from the impertinent rays Of the sun
or to give flattering effect to a not
too brilliant complexion Now a
certain amount Of suntan is considered
highly desirable and what nature
leaves undone in the way of complexion
tones is easily made good by the
clever use Of makeup Wells are very
much less a matter Of protection than
they were, but they may be used to
distinct advantage in adding to the
charm Of small hats.
There are certain women to whom
the very small hat is not becoming
women with unusually long faces, or
women with exceptionally wide check
bones. women with exceptionally large
heads or exceptionally small heads.
And yet there are occasions when the
small, brimless hat is the smartest
and most appropriate selection. And it
is right then that the new style of
face veil proves most helpful. So
don't let any one tell you that your
face is not the type to appear at its
best beneath the brimless silhouette
Of a small toque or beret. Just buy
one of the new short wells and arrange
it this way and that way to give the
additional breadth or softness of line
that is needed.
Here's just parting bit Of news
about wells that will probably surprise
you very much as 1t did us when We
first heard Of it. Among the new
hats designed for late Summer and
Autumn there are some neat little
toques that dip down in the center of
the forehead and are worn with mesh
wells that extend down we'll below the
chin and are drawn up close at the
sides after the manner that was
current IS or 20 years ego.

To Hindus who worship the god

They hold it in the same regard as
Buddhists hold the bo-tree.
The height Of a bayan tree is
sometimes more than 70 feet. and the
main trunk may be as much as 10 feet
thick, Some of the other trunks become
as thick as the trunks of oak trees.
Banyan trees live to a grand old age.
When the main trunk decays the limbs
