Roy Frazier spoke for Chris Le- vang, stating “he has never been accused of causing delegates to come here especially for a conven- tion and he has never been accused of double-crossing anyone. For Divide county I can say that Le- vang can get all the Nonpartisan votes of Divide county.” C. A. Fisher of Valley City took this remark to refer to him. He defended his, actions in the 1ecent state Republican committee. Frazier was denied a chance to reply because the delegates did not want a fight on the floor.

They protested against “the grossly unfair and unjust system of taxation as cs- tablished by the last legislature,” and asked the executive committee to memorialize the next session of the legislature to reenact laws re- storing partial exemptions previ- ously obtaining.on personal prop- erty. \ The resolutions charged th ganization of the State Batik anty Fund commission was in viola- tion of the guarantee fund law and charge “gross maladministra- tion of the fund,” asking at the same time that the next legislature take up such matters even to the point of impeaching officials if necessary. They recontmended the passage of the Fedge bill. They endorsed the American Legion’s adjusted compensation bill and the immi tion bill. They urged the p: 2 of the Norris-Sinclair bill and the Sinclair stabilization bill.
