Leaders of b6th political factions last night were trying to estimate the rank and file of Some leaders of G. U. Somers, who is said to have written the report for the senate fact-finding committee; F. F. Bur- chard, Governor Sorlie’s auditor at the mill, and various other auditors and accountants who have at vari- ous times taken part in the “audi- tors’ battle” mentioned by the gov- ernor in his message. Although it had been known that. Secretary of State Robert Bryne would read the governor’s message to the assembly, the executive sur- prised some of the lawmakers by ap- pearing at the session. He intro- duced Bryne, saying he has been troubled with a cold, and then fol- lowed the reading of the message by a plea for harmony and concerted action which will bencfit the farm- ers and business men of the state. “T'll tell you,” he said, “you are here to do something and I have tried to bring out in my message some of the things that are neces- sary. The message is quite long, and I hope you will give earnest consideration to everything I have brought out. . “I believe you will have «ttended governor, were inclined to the view that the message pre-. if : which it will take some care to get gl 1.09 107% 1.09 over safely.

D. .. “Every business man and farmer ‘in North Dakota needs your help. We need your help—every one. You are in a position to help them if you will give your time and attention to the marketing problems in North Dakota. “T have spent 30 year. in the mar- keting game in North Dakota and I don’t know half of it yet. You may think something else but I don’t be- lieve anyone here has had an: longer experience and with 30 years rience I ought to know some- thing that North Dakota needs for markets. Some anh bring out arguments that North Dakotd prod- ucts are not better than other states. I have been in a lot of games but I have been in the grain business for 30 years and I know that our grain is just a little bit better than that of any. other state in the union. Canada has better hard wheat, but outside of Montana we have no competition in our wheat, none anywhere in our flax or rye or durum. “We have something here if we can get out and cell it.” State Affairs Group Named Decision to refer the message of Governor Sorlie to the state affairs committee was reached this after- noon by the senate without dissent. The committee will ~ cooperate with a special committee appointed by the house to consider the mes- sage. Motion to turn the message over to the state affairs committee was made by Senator J. E.

Each postponement of the undertaking of essential new construction increases the already Pronounced inadequacy style farth- er into the future. “Delay in building up the fleet to the standard of its requirements deprives the country of an adequate y| national defense for a period of financial burdens in future years, Prompt penta of the program Proposed will result in a fleet ade- quate for national defense and will | avoid excessive peak loads‘ in fu- ture financial demands.’ ” Cruisers Should Be Replaced The general board’s report added that there are 22 cruisers of a total Ng eel of 164,100 carried ‘in a decommissioned status that should be replaced, for “all lack speed, Ly power, and a general fitness for modern eervice.” The report also. said that the efficiency of de- stroyer squadrons as a whole “suf- fers from the lack of squadron lead- ers,” and that the “art of submar- ine construction and submarine operation has\ advanced materially in recent years, so that it is possi- ble to operate submarines of a suitable type.” Mr. Wilbur pointed out that be- cause of limitations of the Wash- ington naval treaty the new cruis- ers would be limited to 10,000 tons displacement and to guns of 8-inch calibre. He said that the 25 new cruisers would be in addition to the eight under construction and the 10 cruisers of 7,500 tons displacement, already built, making a total of 43 modern cruisers. {Personal and | Social News of ° R.
