D., Aug. 16.—William' Lemke, league lawyer, vigorously de- a nies the statement attributed to the effect that he had told _Rheinhardt Kamplin the American “legion was “backed by Wall street.” His denial is supported by John N. Hagan, commis- sioner of agriculture and labor, who is said to have been a’party to the conversation in which ‘this statement 4 alleged to have been made. «*" ‘ I ‘The: article in’ question concerned the efforts of‘Kamplin to have The Divide County’ Journal ‘ of © Crosby jamed! the official paper on+" the strength of the possibility of ‘his pur- chasing itand‘ conducting ‘it as an organ of the American Lezion. Statement Not Made. According. to both -Commissioner Hagan and Mr, Lemke the whole article is misleading and: gives’a' false impres- sion of thd whole matter. ° i “aKmplin had corresponded *, with me before the referendum election ask- ing me to use my influence in paming Yne Divide County Journal the official paper of ‘Divide’ coanty,”” said Mr. Hagan. “Last Friday Mr. Lemke in- troduced the man tome in “thy office ard explained that he was seeking the appointment for The Divide County Journal. . “Kawplin told us that in the event the printing commission would name that paper in place of the one owned by the organized farmers he would.re- establish: it as ‘a\ soldiers’ paper’ and make it a state organ of the ‘American Legion, He claimed that a number of Divide county: soldiers ‘were interested in the move; es oat Fargo Is ‘Advocated. “I pointed out that more returned soldiers were interested in ‘the Divide County ‘Farmers’ Press and with Mr. Lemke advised him to choose Fargo |) or some other large city for the place of publica I suggested that for} 4 a paper of’ the kind he spoke of es- ishing to be successful it certainly | tl to be located at a central - or | d ipal distributing point.

American Legion.’ ‘ Article Misleading. “Mr, ‘Lemke certainly did not say that ‘Wall Street was behind the Amer- ican Legion.’ The discussion in my office was’ confined simply ‘to Kamp- lin’s request, His proposition was that if the printing commission named the Divide County Journal the official paper he might buy ‘it and run: it as a paper ‘for returned « soldiers. Mr. Kamplin twas’ treated courteously and even encouraged to establish a: soldier paper in the eastern part of the state. When he declined that suggestion I told him that I could not look favor- able on the other proposition, and the interview ended.” Speaking of the matter tonight, Mr. Lemké sitply ‘said: “The ‘statement attributed to me is direct falsehood. I have not investi- gated the American Legion and-kaow nothing of its organization. The only conversation I had with Kamplin con- cerning it is just as Commissioner Hagan has said.” BIRTHS AND DEATHS N CITY FOR JULY EVENLY DIVIDED Sixteen Births and Twelve Deaths, Both Sexes Equally , Represented Births ‘iri Bismarck for the month of July-as reported-totalled sixteen, even- ly diyided between boys and girls, This compares with 36 births for July 1918. ‘There were twelve deaths during last between Of“the deaths, three were stillborn, two kidney ‘trouble, two heart trouble, ore each of pneumonia,‘anemia, burns, appendicities ‘and cancer, Six deaths resulted between the ages of birth and 10'years, one between thirty and forty, two‘ bétween fifty ‘and sixty, one be- tween sixty and séventy: and two over seventy. ice $ ‘ According to Teports' just issued by he North Dakota state board of health; there’ were fourteen births and four deatlis in‘ tle’ county in’ April ‘and 39 births and fifteen deaths in the city.
