sinate General Nobuyoshi Muto, ia
pans supreme representative in
Manchuria, which it said was respon-
sible indirectly for the outbreak Of
the three-day battle this week at

sension, has held a feeble grip on
Jehol as well as the rest Of inner
Mongolia, the japanese chief Of staff,
General Kuniaki Koiso, declared 1t

POSTS IN CABINET.
Will Confer With Stimson Soon
to Obtain Insight Into
Foreign Affairs
GARNER REMARK SURPRISES
President-EIect Says He Is
Leaving Details Of Economy
Program to Congress

Hyde Park, N. r., Jan. 7.-(F-
President-elect Roosevelt, after max
ing 1t clear that he is satisfied with
the Democratic program for this ses-
sion of congress, Is turning again to
the task of forming q new govern
ment.
Foreign affairs are to receive at
tention at meeting between Mr..
Roosevelt and Henry l.. Stimson.
President Hoover's secretary of state.
The date has been fixed for this con-
ference but has not been made pub
lie.
Whatever rowing may 60 on in
congress over the details of new tax
es to balance the budget, the Presi-
dent-elect Is satisfied that as re-
suit of Thursday nights parley in New
York between himself and the party
pilots Of Capitol Hill determined
effort will be made to make govern
ment costs and income for next year
meet.
The news that Speaker John N.
Garner, Vice president-elect, was
talking about LESS painful" levies
than the proposed income tax boost,
brought an expression Of surprise
here and reply that the President
elect was leaving the details to con-
gress.
Garner and Senator Joseph T.
Robinson Of Arkansas, the Democra-
tic floor leader, were the spokesman
Of Thursday nights meeting who an
nounced to newspapermen the pro-
gram for raising income taxes to help
wipe, out the estimated $492. 900 DOC
deficit.
Separate Beer Bill
Enactment of the 80 per cent beer
bill with its revenue provision Is an
other part Of the Democratic attack
on the deficit. However, this pro-
position is going to be sent along to
President Hoover as separate pro-
position for veto or approval. Like
wise, the Democrats are determined
to put up to the president their
parity plan" farm relief measure
now before the house, and in this
they have the apparent support Of
Mr.. Roosevelt.
The other Democratic piece-an
additional 500, 900 in economies
below the Hoover budget-received
renewed consideration at confer
ence late Friday in New York City
between the President-elect, Senator
James F. Byrnes of South Carolina.
and Professor Raymond Moley, eco
nomic adviser. Byrnes is q member
Of the special economic commission
of the senate.
Leaving the busy New York City
home at 1880 Friday afternoon
Roosevelt motored up the Hudson
river valley to his estate here, near
Hyde Park.
This weekend and the next will
be spent here. A visit from Cover
nor Clifford Pinchot OF Pennsylvania
Republican Independent, Is on the
program here. Roosevelt says this
meeting does not involve politics.
Sandwiched between all the con-
ferences Of the President-elect are
frequent and very secret discussions
about the makeup of his cabinet. In
this connection the appearance OF
Swager Shirley of Kentucky at the
Roosevelt meetings on finance, is re-
garded significantly. He is q former
chairman of the house appropriations
committee and is believed to rank
high up among the possibilities fol
secretary Of the treasury.

POISON TABLET

Pellet Carried IS Years
Ends Life of Man Who
Fled Pen in 1918.
BY WENDELL BURCH
United Press stan Correspondent

BUTTE, Mont, March PA poi
son tablet he had carried for tif-
teen years while he was hunted as
a fugitive from a Michigan state
prison farm and for grilling in con-
nection with two killings, ended the
life Of Harry Bushnell, AZ, in the
county jail here Thursday.
Bushnell who escaped in 1913
from a Michigan prison farm, was
found dead by a fellow prisoner.
In long note addressed to his
second wife, whom he married under
the name Of Vern Sevren, Bushnell
declared he valued her happiness
more than his own life.
Your happiness means more than
life TO me, dear" he wrote. The
little headache tablet you used to
be so curious about I hope will turn
the trick. I have carried it for ff-
teen years and at last I shall use
it. Goodbye, honey. See you on
the other side when you arrive.
x x x farewell forever. Your Dad
die A row Of X-marks flanked his
signature.
Declares His Innocence
In bitter terms he contended that
authorities we're determined to con-
vict him on various charges.
I am innocent Of those crimes in
Michigan, but they won't have it
that way" he wrote.
Darling, it is of no use. I simply
can not go back to Michigan and be
railroaded again, the fugitive wrote
III you spent all you have, it would
be of no use, for they are all set to
put me away"
Bushnell was wanted for uues-
tloning regarding the deaths of
Mrs. Tillie jenkins and Walden
Bordner, whose bodies we're found
near the Michigan prison farm
about the time he escaped in July.
1918.
A possible motive for his act was
seen in the fact that Montana au-
thorities had begun a search for
his 70-year-old first wife, Theresa
Caroline McLauren Sevren. He
divorced her last summer and mar
rled Marie Watson. His first wife
is alleged to have disappeared about
the same time.
Lived Upright Life
AS Vern Sevren, the fugitive lived
peaceful life in Montana. He
came directly to this state after his
escape, and worked as a farmer
and homesteader near Prairie Elk.
IN 1926 he came to Butte, where
he worked in the mines.
He was arrested March IA, when
a co-worker tipped police that
SeVren closely reSembled a picture
and description of Bushnell which
appeared in a detective story
magazine. He admitted his true
Identity after being finger printed.
Bushnell made one request in his
mote Please, darling, put me with
Marjorie" he asked, apparently ex-
pressing a wish to be buried beside
the grave of his second wife's
daughter by former marriage.

IN HONEST DISAGREEMENT
Sheldon, N. D.,
Sept. s, 1888.

Sept. 5, 1888.
Editor, Tribune:
A recent editorial in the Bismarck
Tribune" under the caption Beer and
Motor Accidents is Of special interest
at this time.
In single year. $4,000 people Of
the United States were killed and L.
100000 injured by automobile acci-
dents. Every fifteen minutes through
cut that year man, woman, or child
was killed, and twice every minute
some one was injured in an automo-
bne accident. This exceeds the rate
that American soldiers were killed and
injured during our participation in
the World war.
II it can be shown that the legali-
zatton OF beer and the repeal of the
Eighteenth Amendment will increase
the number Of persons killed or injur-
ed, then every good citizen should
vate mo" on these propositions. We
believe every one must feel as the edi-
torial tersely puts it that mo salts
faction of appetite is worth the life
of any man."
The editorial opens with the state
ment, "A clinical experiment is in
order to determine the effect Of the
current 80 per cent beer upon the
consciousness of automobile drivers"
Clinical experiments have already
been conducted and scientific mea-
have made it clear that
even two to four hours after taking as
much alcohol as Is contained in two
ounces Of whisky, or one pint OF beer,
the mental processes necessary to
carry a danger signal to the eyes and
respond In movement Of hand or foot,
takes two or three times as long as
the normal. This mental process in
q normal man in normal condition
takes about one fifth Of a second. A
car going thirty-five miles an hour,
which is slow driving these days, will
travel ten feet in ot1e-fifth Of q Sec
ond.
The driver who normally can stop
his car IN ten feet goes twenty to thir-
ty feet after he has had q drink or
two. His life and the lives Of others
are at stake.
The really drunken driver does not
get far before he falls asleep or runs
and is not as great menace
On the road as the moderate drinker.
A little alcohol makes the moderate
drinker speed up his driving and take
chances, and lessons his control.
A fair test would be comparison
o. the automobile death rate in coun-
tries where the sale of liquor is legal

month ago, which was attended by

try In the world. The friendships and

Of the boys he said. There are lis
Bismarck boys who come Of age each
year and the Boy Scout movement
should attract at least one out Of
every four Of these. II we can it will
show in the future welfare Of the
community" he asserted.
Former Governor Geoge F. Snafer
spoke on the approaching election to
bond the city for new high school
building which he said was made ne.
cessary because Of the crowded condi-
ton Of the present school. He cited
an instance where So pupils were be-
Ing taught in ONE room by one teacher
ct present. las long as we are paying
for the $3,300,000 government appro-
priation we might as well get some
benefit out Of It," he said.
