The Purpose of the convention, as outlined in a circular letter sent out by Chairman Hughes i th selection or indorsement of a ticket of state officers. That some opposition to the proposal to place a Democratic ticket in the field wil develop, however, is considered cer- tain by some Democrats here. These favor the fusion idea by which the Democrats are aligned with the Real or Independent Republicans in an effort to defeat the candidates for Republican nominations running under the banner of the Nonpartisan League. In his letter Hughes attacks the fusion idea, declaring at “The past 10 's has found the major- ity of Democrats in the state re; tering and voting the Republican ticket in the Pe, election. It is the belief of those who have fol- lowed this course for many years th: the result has been disastrous to the Democratic party—bringing about almost annihilation of sai party in this state. This is a presi- dential year and those who have followed the trend of the times and noted the almost hopeless failure of the party now in power cannot but see a glimmering hope for the cause of Democracy this year of 1928. Urged toe Vote as Democrats “It is to be hoped that the Demo- crats interested in a righteous cause and the upbuilding once more of our party. in this state will reg- ister and vote as Democrats in the primary election June 27, 1928. No alliance of authority has been made by the Democratic party with any other party in the state. Altogether too long have we been a pawn upon the political chessboard of North Dakota. But with the prevailing harmony within our party and a} }, strict adherence to Democratic prin- ciples, the time will be but. short when we will take our place as one of the major political parties of the state.” The convention allots one dele- gate at-large to each county in the state with one additional delegate for each 100 votes cast for D. M. Holmes for governor at the last election. In view of the fact that the state executive committee of the Demo- cratic party, at a meeting in Fargo last September, voted ts continue the fusion arrangement with the Real or Independent Republicans, the Valley City convention is ex- pected to strike a sharp line of de- marcation between the fusionists and anti-fusionists. Since the Nonpartisan League fight began 10 years ago the num- ber of Democratic voters registered at primaries has decreased steadily. A large number of Democrats join- ed the Nonpartisan League and have been voting for Nonpartisan candidates running for Republican nominations. Another large group of Democrats opposed to the league, joined with the Independents and have been voting at primary elec- tions for men seeking Republican nominations in opposition to Non- vartisan League candidates. — The result has been that a Repub- lican nomination has been consider- ed, in recent years, the equivalent of election, Kellogg Places U.S. Government in Favor of Antiwar Treaty (Continued.from page one) guaranty against those conflicts be- tween nations which have periodi- cally broken out since the dawn of history. In addition to treaties there must be an aroused public conscience against the utter horror and frightfulness of war. The peo- ples of the world must enjoy a peaceful mind, as it has been said, and treaties such as I have dis- cussed, and effor' of statesmen to advance the cause of world peace, can only be regarded as a portion of the problem. I am not so blind to believe that the millennium arrived, but I do believe that the world is making t strides toward the pacific ments of international disputes. Explaining that in the present treaty negotiations it was the pur- pose of the United States in so far as possible to eliminate war as a factor in international relations Mr. Kellogg said the United States cannot obligate itself in advance to use its armed forces against any other nation of the world. The United States does not believe that the peace of the world or of Barone, depends upon or can be assured by treaties military alliance, the futility of which as guarantors of peace is repeatedly demonstrated in the pages of history, he said. Discusses Arbitration Treaty The arbitration treaty with France, recently ratified by the sen- ate, as well as other treaties, were discussed at length by Mr. Kellogg who said it was difficult for him to see by what claim a government could properly request arbitration of tion: lated in the treaty, includ- ing the Monroe Doctrine, since few, if any, would present questions jus- ticiable in their nature. “I know of but one other form of gcd Sich cap be concluded for se of preventing war,” con- tinued ir. Kelloge, “and ‘hat ie in whicl 8 Spec! ally Bind themselves Tet to resort to war. It is this kind of treaty which people have in mind when they dis- cuss treaties for outlawing war, and it is a novel idea in modern interna- tional relations.” Ontlining the pro of the é istide Bria: it renom-| ied. te | that reservation,” he sa! y the four excep- f suggested the treaty provide only for renunciation of wars of aggres: sion, explaining that her obligations under the League of Nations and the Locarno treaties presented certain difficulties. “I have not been able to a to id“ uy ob- jection to limiting the scope of the gression in besed partly upon ay gression partly upon a real disinclination to see the ideal of world peace qualified in any way, and ly upon the absence of any satisfactory definition of the word ‘agressor’ or the phrase ‘wars of ag- gression.’ It is difficult for me to see how a définition could be agreed upon which would not be open to abuse.x xx” Death Toll in Dam Collapse Is Now 206 (Continued from page on:) victims came to their death by drowning as a result of the break: ing of the dam. The coroner’s jur. ies were instructed that there a: yet was insufficient evidence upon which to inquire into the causes of the disaster. Ventura County Engineer Petit issued his statement on conditions at the St. Francis dam after he vis- ited it yesterday, accompanied by the county supervisors. “It is my opinion that a dam nev- er should have been constructed at this point,” he said. “The rock all seems to be largely of decomposed or altered granite which crumbles when subjected to water pressure. I doubt if a firme: bed rock would have been encountered even at low- er levels even if it had been sought.” A group of geologists named by the Los Anzcles bureau of water and power inspected the site of the broken dam but refused to make public any statement of its findings. 500 Are Vaccinated Typhoid vaccination of refugees and workers in the flood district was begun here yesterday and near- ly_ 0 were treated. J. Arthur Jeffers, assistant na- tional director of the Red Cross who is in charge of the western division, announced. that an appeal for funds with which to rehabilitate the victims of the flood would be made. The amount required, he estimated, would run into several hundred thousand dollars. “There are approximately [D0 per- sons in the valley whose homes have been seriously damaged or en- tifely wiped out,” he said. “The loss in homes alone will run around $750,000.
