{ ‘] ‘ Ye -e Ye ==|THE BIS THIRTY- Y-NINTH YEAR. . 54, ‘BISMARCK, NORTH DAKOTA WEDNESDAY, MARCH 5, 1919 WILSON-TAFT F REFERENDUM ON CERTAIN LEAGUE MEASURES SURE Questionable Provisions of “Pro-! gram Acts” to Be Referred to Vote of People INITIATIVE IS PROBABLE Amendments to Be Submitted—j But Ten Thousand Signa- tures Are Required The filing of referendum petitions against certain sections of some of the league acts, and against others, which are not considere “program measures,” as a whole, is regarded as a practical certainty. It is believed that many conserva- tive leaguers will favor a referendum on certain provisions contained in | their own program bills. i It is thought that the support of | jeaguers may be made more sure by initiating, at the same time, amendments to these acts which will} ‘ throw around them the safeguards; which the conservative element be- lieves desirable. There are certain bills, such as the board of administration measure and the Brinton newspaper monopoly act, which will be -referred as a whoe. ‘These measures are not universally popular even in league ranks. But seven thousand signatures are required to refer these two acts. Ref-; erendum petitions if filed within 90} days following the close of the recent session. The governor may then call a special election at which these acts will be submitted for approval, or they may go over until the next general/ election. i In the present instance, the gov-} ernor is believed to favor placing these ‘acts in operation’ as e:.rly as! possible, ard if they ars referied it is probablg he will call a special elec- uon. i League Program Measures. ‘No exceptions are taken to league Program measurés as a whole. Ther? are, however, decided objections 10 certain provisions.- of each of: these ‘ls,, How many of these will find thelr away Into referendum petitions cannot \be: predicted. . The following, however, are some amendments which may be initiated: An amendment increasing ihe mem:! bership of the state industrial’ com-| mission, from three to seven, adding! thereto four: members: to be: elected} hy the people or ito he appointed by the governor, ‘by and with the consent of the senate. “ An amendment: providing for the election of directors for the Bank of North Dakota.and.a separate amend- ment, prohliting the ‘se of public or private funds’ ‘deposited «with this in- stitution as “available.assets,” for (ne purchase of state bonds, including its; own, H An amendment giving the people a voieg in the sciection of the board} which will manage the state mill and elevator association, and more close- ly restricting the powers of this as- sociation to the operation of terminal elevators and. flour mills, the latter to be within the state, An amendment eliminating from the state’ home building association bill the. power to exercise the right of eminent domain on behalf of in- dividuals, and restricting its exercise only to uses from which the .public shall benefit. An amendment: requiring that alt state bond issues shall be sold at par. this provision now being included only in the act providing for the issu- ance of $10,000,000 worth of bonds for the Bank of North Dakota: ‘ Requires 15,000 Signers. Under the league's emergency amendment to the.constitution, 30,0uv signatures would be required to com- pel the governor to call a special elec- tion for the referendum of any of these measures. The governor, how-. ever, gave the senate, before it pass-| ed the league program bills, bis-pledge that he would call a special election upon the filing of petitions contain- ing 15,000 representative signatures. | ‘To initiate an act or an amendment to any act 10,000 signatures are , requir- ed, and the league amendment to the constitution- makes. it optional with the governor as to whether such acts or amendments shall ~ suomited at a special election or at the next gen- eral election. Inasmuch as the governor and everyone else concerned is anxious to see the league program placed inj operation at the earliest possible mo- ment, it is regarded probable that any amendments which may be initiated will be submited at the same election at which the obnoxious clauses are re-| ferred. In the meantime, none of the league | program measures, all of which ex- cept the home building association act carried,an emergency clause giv- ing them immediate effect, can be suz- pended. The governor may proceed tomorrow to direct the state treasurer to prepare for immediate issue $10.- 000,000 worth of\bonds for rural cred- its; $5,000,000 for: the mill and ‘le- vator association, and $2,000,000 for the Bank of North Dakota. As soon as the Bank of North Dakota bonds are sold and the proceeds turned over to the bank as capital, it becomes re- pository for some $25,000,090 inpublic fands of the various counties and mi- nor civil divisions; some millions more in ‘state funds, not including the uni- versity and ‘school lands. moneys, which are invested as rapidly as they accrue, although the bonds and mortgages in which these fund: are invegted can be added to the state’s resources; and, it is safe to presume (Continued on Page Eight.) ‘ALLIES FLANK Well, here’s Sam Yank We've heard that you That you were on the Only as you are under And sharing in our Who've been a-wandering wide and far To right a flagrant wrong. and here’s.

SHIPPING AT STANDSTILL New York, Mar. 5.—Coastwise ship- ping was at a standstill today as the strike of harbor workers became more effective, and there was promise that the few ferry boats which did not stop operating yesterday would: be tied up before night. Neither the boat owners or the strikers show the slightest signs of yielding. There was talk among the marine workers today of calling a sym- pathetic strike of 60,000 dock workers. BOLSHEVIK] Archangel, Russia, March 5.—A flank atack was launched today by the Bolsheviki, who were repulsed with considerable losses, Allied scouts foud many bodies in the wood after the encounter.
