PAGE EIGut ; BISMARCK DAILY TRECNE SHAME TREATY NOT RATIFIED, | GOMPERS SAYS Declares People Would Vote for It if Given Chance Without Other Issues URGE UNION AGAINST WAR Montreal, June 14.—“It is pitiable.” that the United States has not ratified the leage of nations, Samuel Gompers, President of the American Federation) of Labor, declared here today in an| address before the convention. “If the league covenant was sub- mitted to the American people with- out any other tangling questions, it would be overwhemingly accepted,” he said. Mr. Gompers expressed regret that! the United States has forgotten the efforts of the nations of the world to prevent other horrible conflicts such as that which started six years ago. The labor draft of the league cove- nant, he added would aid in the re- union of the working people of the world.” British Plan International organization of the world union workers to further aims and prevent another world war was advocated by J. W. Ogden, delegate of the British trade union congress, before the American Federation of Labor. Mr. Ogden, however, warned the Federation that it must ignore any “international” similar to that formed in Russia or other countries. “The only international we can recognize is the one that is formed by right, proper and legal basis, he add- ed. “The only way we will be able to prevent useless conflict is by linking the workers of the world into a great international organization. Condemn “Outlaw Strike” T. C. Cashem, of Cleveland, was given unanimous consent to introduce a resolution on behalf of the interna- tional switchmen’s union condemning central labor bodies which recently aided in “unauthoribed rail strike” in the United States. The resolution was referred to a committee. The International Ladies Garment Workers’ union today was pressing its fight to have the federation urge the release of all political prisoners and the repeal of the espionage act. The central labor conference body, of New York, which is backing the resolution has placed before the delegates a statement declaring that on April 1, 1917 to Feb. 28, 1920 there were 15,391 men imprisoned as political prisoners, conscientious objectors and ,military offenders. ‘LEAVES SAFE OPEN Hutchinson, Kans, June 14.—The owner of a store here returned late at night to see if he locked the ‘safe.

This is the answer of J. J. Early of Valley. City. president of t North Dakota Bankers association, to the suggestion of the state industri commission that Mr. Early, as presi- dent, and another banker, join with O. E. Lofthus, state bank examiner, in an examination’ of a limited num- ber of items that go to make up the business of the Bank of North Da- kota. “No invitation has been ‘received by Mr. Early or any officer of the asso- ciation from the industrial commission or from any source to join in the ex- amination of the Bank of North Da- kota, but if such invitation should be received, officers of the association would decline to join in such examina- tion; and the association, as an or- ganization, would continue to maintain its position as a non-political organiza- tion. “If the bankers of the state should,: at any time in the future, be siven| ; Proper representation in the manage- j ment of the Bank of North Dakota, and the institution removed from poli- tical control, the association would, in! that ‘case. be very glad to keep the public constantly posted as to the condition of the bank.” . People Demanding Publicity The action of the state industrial; commission majority members, eal ernor Frazier and John N. Hagan, in asking the bankers’ association to; make an examination of certain items in the bank’s affairs, is the result of the public demand for publicity in state business. Only recently Gpvernor Frazier per-} sonally issued an order to every em- ploye of the state industrial commis- sion to keep all'records of the com-: mission’s business closed to all per- sons, except. those authorized, by the commission to see them. | This order applies to the Bank of; North Dakota, to the North Dakota Mill and Elevator association, to the state flour mill at Drake, and to other of the varied side lines in which the industrial commission is dabbling, such as home building, etc. Would Limit Inquiry The action of the industrial com- mission in seeking a partial examina- tion of the bank’s affairs has devel- oped .out of the long series of at- tempts by the industrial commission to ‘keep the taxpayers ignorant of the commission's financial affairs. The bank officers have zealously guarded against publicity of its’ af-| fairs; the state auditor was thrown out of the Bank of North Dakota, and his men were thrown out of the state flour mill at Drake. Other means have been taken also to pre- vent the public from getting any facts concerning the business of the state, conducted at the expense of! the taxpayers and with funds raised by the collection of taxes, until the indications are that the people are demanding a complete showndown of the enterprises. The situation has been made more disagreeable for the administration by the declaration of Wm. Langer, as | AMERICA GETS Wz the candidate for governor of the Re- publican forces, that on the day he is inaugurated governor he will appoint a committee of, four bankers and one farmer to make a thorough examination of every transaction in the state bank from the, time of tts establishment, and that the commit- tee will give the facts to the people. Complete publicity of all public busi- ness is being demanded by Mr. Lan- ger of the present administration, and he pledges:complete publicity in the event of his own election. OIL TANKERS, ENDING FIGHT Commission An- Reparation nounces Award of Disputed Vessels of Oil Company Paris. June 14.—Fight cil tankers belonging to a German subsidiary of the Standard Oil company finally have been allotted to the United States for the transport of petrol and oi! to Europe, according to an of- ficial ‘communication issued by the reparation commission, These ves- sels had been the subject of contro- since January, 1919. The rights nations, among them France, Italy and Great Britain were involved. Question of ownership of the tankers has been reserved and will be er- amined into later by an arbitration tribunal. The duration of the treaty will be five or fifteen years. Belgium agrees to maintain a larger army than be- fore the war and restore Antwerp and other fortifications. It is hoped that Great Britain will participate in the alliance, but this is not certain.

Repute, and for Various Good and Foolish Reasons, Monday has always had a bad repue tation. It began with one when it was first called Monday, or moonday, the day on which people felt moony, which is to say loony. The day be- fore was sun-day, and the primitivé Saxon having probably suffered from being too much in the sun thought ft was time to worship the moon and to name a day in her honor. Out of that original insult have grown {innumerable others as Black Monday, Blue Monday, Monday Land. Mondayish and kindred variations which you will find in the dictionary, says the San Francisco Bulletin. And seeing that this is Monday, and that you are probably afflicted with its psychological associations, let us save ; You the trouble of turning to Webster. There is quite a lot about Monday in thee dictionary. After puzzling through the derivations you come to: Black | Monday—Easter Monday, 1360; a remarkably dark day on which there were violent hailstorms; hence any Easter Monday. At boys’ schools the first Monday after the holidays. Biue Moaday—in Bavaria, the first Monday’ before Lent, so named from the blue color of the church decora- tions. A time and occasion when the spirits are depressed, Monday Land—Land whose posses- sion by a cottager depended upon his laboring for his lord: one day {n the week, usually on a Monday. Mondayish—Like a clergyman on ired out. With boys returning to school after: the holidays, congregations faced with blue church decorations, cottagers working a dead horse. and clergymen recovering from their Sunday sermons on that day, is it any wonder that Monday has an evil reputation? + Racer ea | PAY $250,000 FOR | PEARL NECKLACE | aes oe London, June /14.— A new record Rrice has been set in the field of necklaces.
