March 28.— (AP)—Uniform organization of state units in the Farmer-Labor party was urged here today as the first step in possible later formation of a national party, with a third ticket in the na- tional campaign. Proposals for action in the na- tional political field were dis- cussed by representatives of Farmer-Labor groups ir. several northwest states, with Minne- sota delegates opposing action this year, preferring to concen- trate on their state campaign. Besides Minnesota, states rep- resented at the conference in- cluded Colorado, "Wyoming, IMi- nois, with delegates from the two Dakotas expected before tie conference adjourns, St. Paul, Minn., March 28.—(AP) —A proposal to endorse a move- ment for putting a third party ticket in the national political cam- paign was before the northwest farm labor conference here today. The conference follows closely the two-day convention of the Minne- sota Farmer-Labor party which in- dorsed United States Senator Hen- rik Shipstead of Minnesota for re- election with the party’s backing. The convention ended late yesterday. The state convention voted down @ suggestion to send delegates to some midwestern city to consider the formation of a third national party. The convention, however, authorized the,state party’s executive commit- tee to attend the northwest session today. A committee of seven, formed at a meeting in Chicago last Sunday to discuss plans for a third party, also was represented today at the northwest meeting. The committee represents some labor organizations and Farmer-Labor groups. Senator Shipstead was indorsed by the Minnesota Farmer-Labor gathering yesterday only after a heated debate. Speakers attacked him as “a betrayer of the party that elected him,” while others defended him as “the champion of the work- ing class.” Norris Endorsed One resolution adopted by the Minnesota convention indorsed the presidential ey, of United States Senator George W. Norris of Nebraska, “providing Senator Nor- ris consents to become a candidate on our ticket.” A complete state ticket was se- lected, headed by Floyd B. Olson of Minneapolis, Hennepin county attor- ney, as the gubernatorial candidate. e platform favored the McNary- Haugen farm relief bill with the equalization fee inserted. Alleged Money Order Forger Is Arrested St. Paul, Minn., March 28.—(AP) —Fred W. Engel, charged with a series of postal money order forger- ies, was arrested yesterday at Hop- kins, Minn., and brought to the coun- ty_jail here by postal inspectors. Police here said Engel answered the description of Fred W. Edel, sought in New York city on a mur- der charge. Engel denies that he ever was known as Edel. Postal inspector said that mer- chants in the Twin Cities, Superior, Wis., Duluth, Minn., and other cities had been swindled recently though forged money orders. The usual} procedure was to purchase a $4 or| $6 order at a postoffice, made out to a fictitious person, and then raise the amounts to $40 or $60. St. Paul, March 28,—(?)—Police| asserted today that Fred W. Edel, charged with raising money orders; here and in other cities, is wanted in New York under the name of Richard Hall in connection with the murder of Emeline - Harrington, an actress, last December. _ Bertillon experts here say Edel’s | finger prints correspond exactly vith those of Hall and that their photographs are the same. Edel, police say, admitted he knew Miss Harrington, but denied any connec- tion with her murder. The slaying of Emeline Harring- | ton, December 23, at her New York home, created a brief sensation.
