LE|MART OF
SWEDEN BEAUTIFUL
karin, REACH LONDON
His Highness Renounces Royal
ty to Marry Business
Mans Daughter

London, Feb. 24.-(R)-Karin MIS-
svandt, pretty daughter of a Stock
holm business man. who fell in love
with His Royal Highness Prince Len
mart OF Sweden, was in London We'd
nesday with the prince for their
wedding, y bit lonely and shy, as a re-
suit Of running counter to the will
Of the king.
/ After their marriage, which will not
take place for two or three weeks, the
pretty blonde Karin will not be a
princess, for her fiance is renouncing
all rights to his title and will become
plain Mr.. Bernadotte after the we'd
ding.
They looked like an ordinary college
boy and his coed best girl as they
stepped, somewhat abashed. from the
train at Victoria station Tuesday
night into a strange city neither had
ever seen and where no one came to
meet them except two hotel en-
ployes.
There were no representa- ives
from Swedish embassies, for the
young mans grandfather, King Gus
tav Of Sweden, and his father, Prince
william, have disapproved Of the
marriage. For this reason the cere-
mony could not be performed in
Sweden and the couple came here ac-
conpanied by two aunts and an
uncle Of the girl.
When the flashlights of 80 photo
graphers doomed out in the station
as they arrived Miss Nissvandt hid
her head on the princes shoulder
while he assured her with the Swe-
dish equivalent, Never mind, dear"
rs that the bloke wot's renowned
is nime?" asked one porter Of an
other in an audible voice as the
smoke from the flashlights cleared
away.
They were taken to hotel where
until late Tuesday night. the prin-
|cipal guests had been Gloria Swan
son, Give Brook and Adolphe Men
jou.
The two met when Miss Nissvandt
was Is years old, seven years ago.
The prince said he did not like the
girl at first but changed his mind
and determined In 1927 he would
marry her.
1--WE never cared for my royal
prerogatives and I willingly forego
them to have Karin with me always"
he said. I'VE have had many trials.
It seemed like this moment would
never come. But I made my decision
and my grandfather made his. Since
we cannot marry in Sweden without
his consent we have come here"

DEBATE LONG AND HEATED

jamestown. N. D.. Feb. 24-(R)-By
a vote of la to 70 the jamestown
Chamber Of Commerce Tuesday night
affirmed its support Of the capital re-
moval campaign after a hectic three
hour session attended by practically
every member Of the chamber.
Rival camps, the Jamestown for
Capital club and the COMMITTEE Of
ST." petitioners urging abandonment
OF the campaign, were at the meeting
In force. OF the possible 2l5 members
in the chamber 1913 were present.
The resolution placed before the
chamber by Percy Hansen, publisher
of the jamestown Sun and director Of
the campaign, read: In lieu of all
motions brought before this session
tonight move that this jamestown
Chamber Of Commerce here adhere
to and reaffirm the capital removal
resolution passed In 1891 and that a
committee be appointed to solicit
funds" E. e. Greene. state secretary
Of the Farmers Union, seconded the
motion.
The fight centered around whether
the chamber was to remain neutral IN
the campaign or reaffirm its 1891
proposal, which made removal of the
seat Of government from Bismarck to
Jamestown its major objective. The
removal project was Endorsed at the
Jan. Is organization meeting in 1881.
For three hours Tuesday night
chamber members presented argu-
ments. with opponents of removal
standing firm for "strict neutrality.
Attacking this neutrality was. the

north DAKOTA MILL
Competition Of Southwestern
Flour Makes Big Dent,
Manager Reports

Grand Forks, N. D., Feb. 24.-Com-
petition Of southwestern flour, un-
settled business conditions, falling
grain markets. and the inability OF
many trade sections to purchase the
usual amount Of flour, made the op-
Grafton of the state mill and elevator
in 1881 a difficult matter, D. L. Spen-
Ger, general manager. said in his an
nual report to Governor Shafer and
the members of the mill commits
sion.
Crop failures due to drouth in the
areas where the mill usually OBJ
tanned its milling wheat and general
business conditions throughout the
nation added to the difficulties, ac-
cording to the report.
The management OF the inStitu-
ton was in the hands Of the COVER
nor until Aug. 10, when commits
sion composed of Andrew Robbie Of
Cavalier, A. I. Hunter Of Grand Forks
and A. G. Storstad of Horace took
charge.
$28,865 Was Saved
Despite these difficulties of opera
ton, the audit report Of K. c. Mel
son, which accompanied the state
ment Of Spencer, showed that the
loss was $28, 865.97 less than If the
wheels had been idle. The last ses-
sion Of the legislature changed the
mill fiscal year from the calendar
year to one beginning July and end
ing June 80, so the detailed report
Of the audit Is for q six-month Pc
Rod:
In the last six months Of the year
the operating bond interest on money
borrowed in past years was $28,750
and the construction bond interest
was 500, 900. Depreciation was charged
in the amount Of $3e. 433.74. This
made total fixed charge against the
mill for the six months Of $751;
1874. Deducting the period opera
ton profit Of $32.347.77, there Is
shown q net loss Of $121, 1857.
The figures for the year are con-
struction bond interest, Sta 900; op-
Grating bond interest, $57 500 and
depreciation $78.867.58. The operat-
ing profit taken from this shows that
the balance sheet deficit for the year
Is $279, 50l.51.
Ground 1851, 1877 Bushels
The audit shows that the mill
ground 1861 bushels Of wheat in
to 4l9,O71 barrels Of flour. OF this
amount 1l4.877 barrels were sold In
North Dakota. Minnesota took ST.
ll3 barrels and 1892 barrels were
disposed Of in eastern markets. Con-
ditions were such that the audit
showed q decrease in sales amount
ing to 192.075 barrels below the 1880
mark.
Describing the unfavorable condi-
tions, Spencer said that the droutt
condition IN the area 4rom which the
mill usually drew its wheat supply
affected the sales more seriously than
the supply. A large section Of North
Dakota was not in position to buy
flour In usual quantities. A detailed

DEBT And BUILDING

SAVINGS IN Big BILL
$1,o59, 0oo, 900 Set Aside For
Treasury and Postoffice
Departments
washington, Feb, 24.-(P)-Man

Washington, Feb. 24.-P-Many
millions of dollars carefully culled
from next years operating costs of
the huge treasury and postoffice de-
partments are more than overhaul
anced by additional public debt re-
quirements and the federal building
program, in the annual supply bill
reported Wednesday to the house.
In the biggest regular appropria-
ton measure, 81 ,059 ,098,O0 has been
set aside to operate the two depart
ments, and $l,161 ,687 900 for public
debt retirement, interest and other
permanent OUTLAWS. These sums to-
tai nearly half of the $4,000 ,000, 600
budget submitted by President Hoo
YER.
The appropriations committee cut
$22, SIT 900 off the budget estimates
for the operating expense bill, reduc-
ing this 50, 1888, 900 below current ex-
penses. The postoffice department
received $805 $3.50, 900, or $7.972, 900 be-
low the budget and $37 ,297 900 less
than this year. The treasury was al
lowed $254, 81 900 or $l4,704,000 less
than the budget and 1891 900. below
current OUTLAWS. The Democratic
economy knife pared net two per
cent saving from the direct appro-
priation measure.
An increase of $118,666,o00 in the
permanent OUTLAWS was caused large
ly by increases to $426, 489 900 in the
sinking fund to retire the public debt
and to $640. 000, 900 in interest and by
$69, 000, 900 charged off on cash re-
payments by foreign governments.
Secretary Mills explained to the
committee this was due to an in
crease in the amount Of the public
debt outstanding resulting from the
issuance Of bonds to meet the trea-
sury's deficit" Mills said the sur
plus s., 400 900 900 paid into the sink
ing fund since the World war above
legal requirements had been about
counter balanced by a $4,000, 000, 000
increase in the public debt.
Following Its course laid down by
Chairman Byrns, the Democratic
committee slashed many items, but
allowed $133, 400. 900, an increase Of
81, 99l 900 In the lump sum for public
building construction to aid employ
ment on previously authorized pro-
jects. It made no new authorizations
Of projects and cut the budget est
mates by $l2,7s5. 900.
Postmaster General Brown estimAt-
ed before the committee the postal de-
ficit for the current year would reach
about $200 000, 900, due to decline In
revenues, which, he said, would total
about 1900. Ooo. 900 compared to 1885,
10000 In 1891.

WINNIE CLAIMS JUROR
DISQUALIFIED HIMSELF

Phoenix, Ariz, Feb. 24.-(F)-A new
trial for Winnie Ruth Judd was asked
Tuesday on the ground that Dan
Kleinman, one of the jurors who con-
victed her Of the murder Of Agnes
Anne LeRoi, had disqualified himself
by reason Of bias and prejudice.
Herman Lewkowitz, defense counsel
submitted five affidavitS to support
the defense contention. Judge How
ard G. Speakman granted continu-
ance until Wednesday to permit

the jury were present In the court
room. She appeared indifferent to
the proceedings.
The formal sentence Of death fixed
by the jury will be pronounced. by
Judge Speakman In event Of overrul-
ing OF the plea for new trial.
In two Of five affidavits submitted

nix businessman, were quoted as say
ing they had heard KleiAman ihti-
mate bias and prejudice" against
Mrs. Judd. The affidavits credited
Kleinman with the statement: "She's
guilty-I'd hang her"
Defense counsel also alleged gener-
al insufficiency Of the evidence to
support the verdict. Failure Of the
prosecution to connect Mrs. Judd with
the crime Of murder other than send
ing the bodies Of Mrs. LeRoi and He'd
Wig Samuelson, killed at the same
time, to Los Angeles, was declared.

Major Byrne expressed his personal
pleasure at the order; saying he Is de.
lighted to remain at Fort Lincoln and
expressing the opinion also that the
troops at the post are well satisfied
here.
C. M. T. c. Situation Uncertain
What effect postponement Of the
abandonment order will have on the
Citizens Military Training Camp.
which has been held annually at Fort
Lincoln and which also has been or
dered abandoned, was not made clear.
It was indicated Wednesday, however.
that an effort will be made to have
this order countermanded also, since
the reason given for the abandonment
Of the G. M. T. G. was the anticipated
abandonment Of Fort Lincoln.
Whether or not the war department
will eliminate from . bill now before
congress q proposal to turn thu Nprt
over to the department. ct jilstico also
Is not known here. twas presumed.
however, that the bill will be amended
to exclude any mention Of the local
post.
The order to postpone abandon
ment Of the post marks q temporary
victory for those forces In Bismarck
which have been fighting to retain It
on the active list Of the war depart
ment.
A committee was appointed by the
Association Of Commerce when the
removal order first was issued q year
ago and prepared brief on the Ques-
ton. proving that it was not an eco
nomical move to abandon the fort.
This committee also made efforts to
obtain support from various other
sources and was successful in do
ing 50.
In recent weeks the matter has
threatened to become one of the nil
nor issues before congress, the North
Dakota delegation In both house and
senate having lined up solidly behind
the effort to keep the post occupied.
Sinclair Made Investigation
Investigation by Congressman J. n.
Sinclair proved that the war DEPART
ment and the department Of justice
were not in entire accord as to the
disposition Of the post and revealed
the situation as 1t existed In the ma
tional capital.
Supplementing this, Senator Gerald
p. Nye announced that he would
make q fight for the post before the
senate appropriations committee
when that body considered the war
departments appropriation bill. The
inference was given that persistence
in the effort to abandon Fort Lincoln
would result in an attack on the de-
partment's ideas Of governmental
economy In the senate and possible
reduction in its appropriation.
1t Is an open secret that editorials
appearing In The Bismarck Tribune,
affirming this states right to an
army post and pointing to the prob
able political consequences Of aban-
donment, also were sent to tho war
department and reviewed by the po-
litical aides Of President Hoover.
These may also have had their effect.
This week, Governor George +.
Shafer went to Washington and talk
ed with Secretary Hurley about the
situation.
The climax Of these influences was
the order postponing evacuation Of
the fort.
It is possible. Major Bryne said.
that the order for the abandonment
may b cancelled a1togethe-:. The
probability Of this being done was In
creased by the fact that evacuation
OF the fort would hardly be planned
for the dead Of winter, the time at.
which the new order fixes e.

Difficulty often Is experienced in
determining whether claims for in

one of the major sources of trouble
being to determine whether the acci-

Strange things happen, Stutsman
