Approximately SIS Men to Take
Active Part in Solicitation
for Charity
SUM SOUGHT IS $1,000

Meet Shrunken Pocket.
books Of Donors

Approximately IS men will take
part in the seventh annual Bismarck
Community Chest campaign which
will open next Tuesday, according to
bp j. c. Taylor, chair
man Of the campaign organization.
Approximately Sill 900 will be asked
by the chest this year for the sup
port Of various charitable and
eleemosynary institutions which are
supported by 1t. This Is a reduction
Of 10 per cent from last years budget,
the cut having been made In recog-
milton of the fact that these agencies
will have to take a cut along with
the average individual.
This amount. however. will keep
them functioning In near-normal
condition until the current stringency
is past, In the view of members of
the chest budget board who have CIV
en- careful attention to the needs Of
each organization and substantially
reduced the amounts asked.
Most of the solicitors who will take
part in the campaign are members
Of the Rotary. Kiwanis and Lions
clubs and Of the American Legion.
They will meet IN the World War
Memorial building at o'clock on
November 7 to receive final instruc-
tons. The usual breakfast meeting
for workers was abandoned this year
In the interests of economy.
Solicitation of firms having their
headquarters outside Of Bismarck al
ready has begun and this work is ex-
pected to be completed at the same
time as the city solicitation.
To Use Proved Arguments
Judge A. M. Christensen, president
Of the chests board Of directors, said
the arguments which will be advance
ed In behalf of the chest this year
are the same which have proved true
in the past. The organization. he said,
saves time and money for both contri-
butors and those who arc asked to
make the solicitation, since people are
solicited only once during the year
and then only In behalf Of organiza-
lions which have been thoroughly in
vestigated and are known to be
worthy.
He pointed out, also, that the fund
operates without any overhead costs,
since all services performed for 1t arc
donated by interested citizens. The
only expenses. other than its dona-
tons to charities. are those for sup
plies needed In the campaign proper
Organizations which are supported
by the Community Chest are the Boy
Scouts, Girl Scouts. the Juvenile
Band, Community Council, the Red
Cross. Salvation Army, the Commun-
ity Christmas. the Florence Crittenton
Home, North Dakota Children's Home,
st. Johns Orphanage and the North
Dakota House of Mercy.
Articles detailing the work Of each
organization are being prepared by
committee and will be published by
The Tribune before the campaign OPP
ems in order that every Bismarck resi-
dent may have opportunity to learn
all about the chest and its work.

administration. charging in = pamph-
let that the president has violated
many Of his campaign and platform
pledges.
A document labeled Lets look at
the record" hits particularly at fed
eral monetary maneuvers since March
Quoting the Democratic platform
assertion that a sound currency Is to
be preserved at all hazards" the
pamphlet contends the president has
broken this pledge In signing the in
flation bill and In recent moves to-
ward managed currency.
Recalling also the platform promise
for an international monetary con-
ference. It says Roosevelt did not re-
spect this plank In declining to sub
scribe to currency sterilization moves
initiated 1T the London conference.
The position Is taken that the
promise Of q 25-per-cent reduction IN
expenses Of federal government like
wise has been violated and the
charge made that the administration
keeps two sets Of books to deceive
tax payers"

AWAIT BRITISH REACTION
President Seeks to Avoid Re.

eign Markets
AWAIT BRITISH REACTION

Washington, Oct. 3l.-(AP)-The
world price Of gold slumped abruptly
Tuesday in spite Of President Roose-
velt's announced intention of buying
the metal In foreign markets, but
nevertheless, the domestic price the
r. F. G. will buy was advanced to an
other new high.
While awaiting assurances from
London that Roosevelt's approaching
operations would not arouse retalia-
tory action and precipitate none
tary war, the administration set a
price for the day Of 1922 for the
yellow metal.
BY contrast, Mondays price was
sal 90 against world price Of $3l .O5.
President Roosevelt expectantly
awaited British assurances that his
approaching operations in European
markets would not arouse retaliatory
measures and fire the starting gun
for a ruinous race to depreciate cur
rencies.
The London government was told
In friendly spirit that the chief exc
cutives plan for raising prices here
and steadytng the dollar abroad was
purely 2 matter of domestic policy
dictated by conditions within the
country.
Is Not Unfriendly Gesture
It could hardly be construed, the
British were informed, as a move
designed to weaken the position Of
Great Britain In the world Of trade,
nor as an unfriendly gesture aimed at
any other nation.
Roosevelt's advisors proceeded bus
lily with preparations for making the
first purchase of foreign gold, hoping
the transactions could begin We'd
ncsday. The Reconstruction Corpor-
alton will be the purchaser and the
New York federal reserve bank its
agent.

Mickey Malanga
 Held Up And Robbed Of S17
Prominent Musician and Radio Star Waylaid on Vine Street By Trio at Midnight Roll Van- ishes When Pistol Is Waved

Michael Mickey" Malanga of 5s Irion street, self-styled leader of a 17 piece radio broadcasting or chestra, reported to Captain Will liam P. Keegan, chief of the de- tective bureau that he was held up and robbed of y17 by three armed negroes who accosted him on his way home last night.
 Mickey told Captain Keegan that he was idling along Vine. street about midnight last night when the three negroes, one of them holding @ gun in his face ordered him to stick 'em up.'
 Mickey said they asked him for money and he meekly turned over his roll because he respected the slant at which the gun was showed toward him and the visioua looking character that held 1t.
 Mickey recently returned from q trip to New York where he organ ized his own band of IT pieces each musician being able to double up" on at least three in- struments. He also had the Masked Girl RubihoR in his band according to letters heceived from him and that he was booking radio and vaudeville engagements.
 Captain Keegan assigned a squad of detectives to investigate the case.

Palma, Mallorca, July 22-(UP) -- Hostilities broke out among Americans themselves on para disc Island'' today just as the tn- cident over the imprisonment of five Americans for striking d civil guard seemed approaching q satisfactory solution. M The foreign colony at Port Pol lensa, where Theodore Pratt lived until islanders stormed his house because of a derogatory article he wrote for an American magazine. sent a letter to the governor Of
 Mallorca protesting Pratt's "un- just and untrue" statements,
 "We are most sorry at the bad impression the article has pro- duced," said the letter. we have found the island exquisite, and we like its customs and its people, Including their honesty and their treatment of. foreigners" Pratt, whose passport has been impouned, faced law suit or action by officials unless he prom ised not to write more derogatory articles. If he made the promise. 1t was said, he would be permitted to leave the island.

Annual Drive to Start Monday-$6,OOO Is Sought

sickness and suffering in one part of the city is going to affect, soon- CT or later, every other part. It is a splendid and unsefish thing to ehare ones abundance with others with the sick, the lame. the helpless. It benefits the giver: 1t benefits the unfortunate recipient; it benefits Waterbury. That Is why those who are able to give are asked to help the Salvation Army to successfully complete its drive for 96,00O. Did you eyer stop to think what 1t would mean to this city if there were no visiting nurs- es; no orphanages: no hospitals: no, family relief agencies; no char acter building organizations? The Salvation Army Is one of your pros tecting agencies in this city and contribution during this annual appeal should not be considered burden but a privilege--an oppor.. tunity to express ones natural impulse to. help his neighbor in distress. Deprive our boys and girls of the protection we have provided for them and the future will show us our mistake. Bar the charity work; let the down-and-
 cutters shift fore themselves; set the homeless. friendless and job less adrift for single week-and we would soon be clamoring for relief agencies to return. Invest in the Salvation Army this year and you will have the satisfaction all through 1t of knowing that you have assisted in caring for the needy sick, for dependent chill dren, in relieving needy families, 1essening distress wherever found and providing wholesome activities for the leisure time of our boys and girls. The need this year Is greater than ever. Prolonged un- employment has occasioned more distress, and those who are em. ployed, or who have not felt the pinch of want, should sense the larger obligation that must neces- sarily fall on those who can afford to give. Take this salvation Army appeal to heart. Give as gener- ously as you are able. Let your heart and conscience be your guide" In making the above ap- peal, Captain William C., Oliver, the officer in, charge, also stated this organization and the services of it's personnel are ready 24 hours a day in any emergency affecting individual, organization or com munity.

employer not to reduce compensa- tion now in excess of the pre- scribed minimum wages, and to in- crease pay by an "equitab1e read justin ment' can that an employ CT must raise all his pay scales i'm. mediately?
 A. The purpose of this is to see that no salaries are reduced below present figures and that an em- polye receives the same wage even if he works shorter hours. This in some cases will amount to an in- crease in the per hour rate and the word equitable" sets general standards which will need inter- pretation as the plan progresses.
 Q. When will the voluntary agreements become effective?
 A. As soon after August 1, as possible. The child labor provi- sions do not go into effect until August 31. Putting the agreements into effect will require time, but they ought to begin to blossom" soon after August l.
 Q. How about men who are paid on commission
 A. There Is still some uncer- tainty regarding the commission angle and 1t remains to be inter- preted officially.
 Q. Some regard newsboys as commission merchants because they are not retained on regular salaries. Will they come under the minimum wage provisions?
 A. That will depend on the in- depreciation regarding commis- sions. If the description is cor rect, 1t would appear that. they
 o. Would newsboys under 1s be limited to three hours work a day?
 A. I believe so.
 Q. Could an employer employ ing five or six helpers designate them an officials and escape the maximum hours provision?
 A. To do that he would have to pay each one at least $35 a week, which probably would sat- isfy the workers.
 o. If a mechanic now working 40 hours a week at 40 cents an hour ($18 a week. has his hours reduced to 35, it is required that his hourly rate be increased to pay him at least $16 a. week?
 A. Yes.

 A. An employe Is an employc regardless of blood relationship, once the employer subscribes to the code.
 o. What is the machinery for enforcing the agreement? A. It Is purely voluntary agreement.
