Donald. chief Of the federal bureau
OF public roads.
Previous warnings OF such an action
had been given state officials.
From A. E. Palen, st. Paul bureau
of roads chief, last week came tele-
gram to Acting Gov. Ole H. Olson,
informing him that July % would be
the final date past which no federal
payments would be made during the
incumbency Of vogc..
Shortly after Vogel's conviction in
federal court on charges Of defraud-
ing the United States. the federal
road forces questioned Vogel's right
to continue in office. At that time
they announced all road contracts
signed by him after his conviction
would have to be approved by q future
highway commissioner.
The supreme court now has before
it an custer proceeding against Vogel.
Hearing on the petition to have Vog-
els office declared vacant was held
Friday.
Gov. Olson has appointed Bert M.
Salisbury as new highway commits
sioner, but the latter has been unable
to assume the office because Of Vog-
els refusal to relinquish books and
records Of the office.
Vogel asserts he has not been legal
" notified and that 1t is necessary for
the acting governor to begin formal
removal proceedings against him for
cause" He has announced hts in
tention to "sit tight" until he Is GUST
ed legally"

Highway Trust Fund Ordered Closed

Uncle Sam shut oft the flow Of fed

highway building. clamping down
Tuesday on payments made out OF a
$500, 900 trust fund until Frank A.
Vogel Is removed as state highway
commissioner.
Orders to pay no more monies out
Of the fund came from the federal
bureau Of public roads at Washington
to Alfred s. Dale, state treasurer.
Immediately, more than $4,000 in
vouchers were refused payment by
Dale. Shortly after he received the
telegram from Washington. three
vouchers from contractors for road
work done in three counties came In
to the office.
One was for $l4,386. for work done
on construction projects in Mcintosh
county by M. B. Munson Of Bismarck,
second was for $1,000 for work done
by Anderson Brothers Of Thief River
Falls, Mimi, in Trail county, while
a third was for 81 900 for work done

turned unpaid.
A 100000 fund also was imperil-
ed, although Dale refused to COM
ment whether he would refuse to pay
out Of that fund, highway construc-
ton fund
The 100000 fund was set up to en-
able contractors to obtain their
money Immediately, without the delay
Of waiting until their vouchers had
been approved in Washington. The
practice has been for payment to be
made out Of the fund, the state draw
ing later upon the national govern
ment for reimbursement.
The telegram to Dale today said:
Until further notice, pending determ-
ination Of the legal status Of the high
way commissioner. you are requested
to discontinue issuing checks on the
trust account established with the
federal highway funds advanced to the

ALLEGED CLOTHING
THIEVES RETURNED
Three Brought Back From
Cheyenne, Wyo. to Get
Hearing Next Week

Three men were returned to Bis
marck Tuesday In custody Of county
and city law enforcement officers and
were held in the county jail pending
hearing on alleged participation in a
clothing theft ring" that has been
operating in North Dakota for several
weeks.
The three men who will stand trial
are H. M. Foster, H. P. Hill and J. v.
Archer. Hearing will be before H. r.
Bonny. justice Of the peace, sometime
this week, according to Sheriff ]. L.
Kelley.
Approximately 5000 worth Of stolen
clothing was recovered at Cheyenne,
Wyo., and Gering, Neb. It was ship
ped to Bismarck where it will be used
as evidence at the hearing.
Several other cities in the state. In
Guiding Minot, Fargo. Devils Lake and
Mandan, sought the operators Of the
ring" After the clothing was stolen,

1: was through an attempt to have

At q hearing Saturday morning the
governor Of Wyoming signed extradi-
ton papers. The men waived their
right to 4 habeas corpus procedure
and began the trip to Bismarck in
company with Kelley, Chief OF Po-
lice Chris Martineson and Acting
States Attorney J. A. Hyland.
-Four other men and one woman
had been arrested by the Cheyenne
police but they were released for lack
OF sufficient evidence.

With this goes the program for buying

So irrigation it Is, and q big start
has already been made at the $685.

of the dam have been let to three
companies at about $30000,OO0.

now come the engineers who are put

Every engineer since Lewis and
Clark's day who has looked on the

possibilities. These may be gagged
by the fact that it has steady low

second. as compared with $4,000 on the
mighty Colorado.
In 1922, Col. George Goethals,
builder of the Panama canal. said that
