sands Of Paraguayan soldiers were re-
ported Saturday as trapped and
slaughtered by Bolivian artillery fire
climaxing q seven-day Paraguayan
drive against the Bolivian stronghold
in the Chaco Boreal, Fort Ballivian.
Communiques issued by both Para
quay and Bolivia indicated that the
battle raging Saturday was the most
terrible and deadly in the past two
years Of the jungle war.
As depicted by official and semi
official dispatches, the tactis Of the
past week have been as follows:
The Paraguayans made q headlong
thrust with massed infantry and
cavalry In an effort to pierce the
Bolivian defending line In the Pill
comayo sector.
This drive followed several days of
skirmishes and preliminary maneu-
vers apparently designed to attract
Bolivian attention to the "Condada
Strongest" and "Condada FL Carman"
sectors at the northern end Of the
Bolivian line.
The Bolivians. however. were not
drawn out on the wing but, instead.
consolidated their positions at Con-
dado in the Pilcomayo sector.
A Paraguayan division commanded
by Col. Brixuela drove at Condado.
They smashed through. indenting
the Bolivian defenses.
Then they were lost.
Bolivian artillery-ight and heavy
guns and mortars of both large and
small calibre-were ready and In po-
sition around the spot Of indentation.
They cut loose with the fiercest ar
tillery barrage which the war In the
Chaco yet has seen.
The Paraguayans were massed on
the spot. It was slaughter.
The barrage ceased. Bolivian troops
poured in across the wrecked terrain.
mopping up the survivors Of that
barrage.
The Paraguayans. however, are re-
ported still doggedly hanging onto
their line.

Fargo, N. D., June 23.-R-Busi-
ness conditions in the United States
have improved faster than the psych-
ology Of the businessman, Daniel C.
Roper, secretary Of commerce. de-
clared in an address in Fargo Friday.
Enroute to the Pacific northwest,
he was accompanied by Mrs. Roper
and his assistant. Chester G. Davies.
He spoke from the rear end Of his
train to some 500 persons.
Through the presidents agricul-
tural program. the AAA rental and
benefits up to June is. 1884. for North

Iowa, Nebraska and Montana amount
ed to $28,646.0O0 said Mr.. Roper.
"Of this amount, more than SIC. 000. 900
has come to North Dakota"
He said there have been few times
in the history Of the country when
the economic improvement has been
as great in the same period OF time
as in the last Is months.
There are. Of course, many serious
problems ahead Of u.s." he declared,
but as victory is won in one segment
or sector our resources can be direct
ed to another sector where aid is
needed. BY this gradual and cumula-
tive process the forces OF depression
will be routed and sound recovery and
progress assured"
He declared there has been con-
siderable excitement in recent weeks
and months over federal expenditures,
but maintained emergency expendi-
lures which he outlined were 'abso-
lutely indispensable in meeting tragic
condition."
Furthermore" he said, I'VE must
keep in mind that these expenditures
are building greater and better fu-
ture for our country. Many Of these
projects are self liquidating and most
Of them will return to US indirectly
far more than has been put into
them"

|NRA PRICE FIXING !.
fight imp ENDING
FOR RUBBER firms
Code Authorities Accuse Three
Concerns Of Violating Blue
Eagle Rules
Copyright, 1884, BY the Associated
preSS)

Washington, June 23..(P)-A major
engagement over the issue of price
fixing Is to be fought out soon before
the federal trade commission.
Possibly the dispute involves only
the comparatively small interests Of
three rubber companies, but develop
ments seem likely to transform 1t In
to another celebrated industrial case,
which would basically affect NE2A's
price control powers. Several code
authorities planned Saturday to Jump
into the case.
The rubber code authority accuses
the three concerns Of violating the
code by refusing to file q list Of prices
with the authority. The firms are
the Phillips-B Baker Rubber company
Of Providence. R. l.; Lacrosse Rubber
Mills, Lacrosse, Wis: and Goodyear
Rubber company (not Goodyear Tire
4 Rubber company Of Middletown,
Conn.
An object Of the battle is to deter
mine industry's right to fix or to re-
fuse to fix prices.
The complaint charges that the
three companies diverted trade to
themselves, to the injury Of their
competitors and the public, on the
basis that they sold goods at less
than listed price.
The issue assumes importance in
that large sections Of industry look
upon price filing, generally known as
open prices, as essential to stability.
In this case there is also what is
known Is Z waiting period" That
Is, prices filed may not become effec.
tive before q certain date.

Enthusiastic Over Prospects Of
Missouri River Diversion
Project


Valley City. N. D., June 23.-lR-
Senator Gerald ?. Nye plunged into
the primary campaign here Saturday
afternoon, raising the question
whether the embargo against ship
nlent Of grain from the state. de-
clared by the governor. had served
the purpose Of aiding the farmer in
view Of the disclosures In federal
court Of the governors activities and
interests In the grain futures mar
ket.
There are those who feel deeply
and sincerely" Nye said, that the
embargo directed by the governor
against the shipment Of certain grains
from the state has been Of large gain
to the people Of the state and par
ticularly to the farmers holding grain.
Perhaps It has. But whenever
anyone says embargo to me, ques-
ton arises in my mind occasioned by
recent disclosures Of the activities and
interests Of the governor in the grain
futures market, and I wonder for
whom the embargo was really intend
ed to serve the largest and greatest
purpose.
II hope there Is proof that win con-
denim my abiding to this matter as
indicating that the governor may
have had q selfish purpose to serve.
I should b quite willing to apologize
for the thought I an trying to con-
vey II It were proved that Governor
LANCER had no interest in the grain
market In q personal way ct the time
his embargo was brought about.
Continuing his discussion Of Lam
ger. Nye said, II fully understand
those many North Dakotans who feel
that Governor LANCER has been and Is
being prosecuted.
Tells Of Fight at Warrington
II do not discount for . moment
the sincerity Of many Of those who
are urging hangers denomination and
election.
II think I am accused In some
quarters Of starting this persecution
which has led to recent findings Of
guilt at the hands Of q federal jury.
Such accusation is far from true.
"You send four men to Washington
from North Dakota. You expect Of
them their full measure Of devotion
to the accomplishments Of that legis-
lation and that kind Of administration
which will give the people Of North
Dakota greater opportunity to . fair
share Of the blessings Of federal gov
eminent.
To-day the federal government is
playing q large part In the welfare Of
our state.

preparation. During the past winter
rare was the day which did not find
me and others from North Dakota
pleading with administrators for
more liberal consideration Of the
needs In North Dakota.
Imagine. II you can, during those
approaches the CONSERVATION and
embarrassment which was mine last
January when Warrington authorities
advised US that the administration Of
some Of the funds into North Dakota
was inviting their scrutiny and that
men were profiting from the funds
being sent into the state to alleviate
distress Of the people In need.
