PAGE TWO: THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE WEDNESDAY, JUNE 20, 1928 Equality for Agricul- ture Called Issue | f (Continued from page one) an adverse mark in his entire rec- ord. He has distinguished himself as tax commissioner of this state. His sincerity should have appeal to every voter who knows the interest of this state. There is a program involved. It is one that few people are attacking today. Thoresen is opposed by a man who says he will try to make a success of this pro- gram while declaring that it cannot be done.” Mentioning every candidate on the state ticket by name Nye gave strong endorsement to each, ap- pealing to the people to support the men who in times past have sup- jotted the cause of agriculture in North Dakota and are ready for} more responsibility in the fight for} farm equality which must go on. “North Dakota,” said Senator} Nye, “is one state that pioneered in| the fight to restore to the people their government. I have observed | in the last three years what is done | in a political way when the men who do the work politically are bound by the ties of party regular-| here in} ity. We are all intere: one thing more than we are inter- ested in the welfare of any party. The time has come for men to de- termine whether party interests or the interest of agriculture shall come first. Republican Platform “The platform adopted by _ the Republican party last week at Kan- sas City is a resume of what the arty has done since the civil war. It was not d ™meet the needs of agriculture. I predict that the Democrats at Hous- ton next week are going to do just! about what the Republicans did at/ Kansas City. The major parties today are n major issue as the votes of their members in congress will consistent- ly show. ae “I have been criticised for inti- mating that there is need for a third party. We don’t need it un- til we have a second party. The voters in his campaign who seek to express their interests upon the question of agricultural welfare have a Hobson’s choice, which is no choice. “The greatest need of the country is a virile, militant party of op- position to the one party that to all urposes is functioning today in Washington. If there is a second party it is composed of the insur- gents group in congress, which has made party leaders stop and think. “Conditions in North Dakota have improved in the last 10 or 12 years. We all realize today that our interests ere the same. The old bitterness is past. We all seek the same objectives in the end but by different routes. “If you people of North Dakota deal as honestly with Senator Fra- zier as he has dealt with ycu he will be returned to the United States senate by a great majority. There is no man in the United States sen- ate more active in the cause of the ‘eommon people and none more inac- tive when the forces of privilege seek to assert themselves. Agriculture's Condition “Mr. Nestos is qualifying as a farm reliefer par excellence. In 1920 when a great agricultural con- gress was called at Chicago, he ad- vocated for the relief of agriculture that all of us eat one slice more of bread a day. Presumably he prac- ticed what he advocated, for soon after he returned home he was tak- en to a hospital ill, probably from gorging himself upon bread in an heroic effort to solve the agricultur- al problem, government has not hesitated to t Weather Report Tidal ‘Temperature at 7 a. m.

If the McNary-Haugen bill price fixing, then the Edge bill assed on behalf of industry to facilitate dumping of industrial sur- pl abroad was price fixing. am hoping we will get a great surprise from ‘Herbert Hoover, Re- | pablican nominee for president in a statement pledging aid to agricul- ture. With the nomination of Mr. | Hoover the issue of party regularity is no longer worth reckoning. In 1920 h» was a candidate by his own consent as a Democrat in Michigan for endorsement for the presidency. | So is political incependence and in-| surgency happily recognized. Farm Statistics “Twenty-nine per cent of the peo- ple of our country are engaged in the pursuits of agriculture. Yet they are receiving only 8 per cent of the national income. In the last! few years they have taken capital stock losses of twenty billion dollars, Their indebtedness has _ increased from four to twelve billion dollars. In a recent yeer the farmer received for his product ten billion dollars and the consumer paid for the same product thirty billion dollars. True, the farmer is receiving an average of 26 per cent more for his product today than a few years ago. ‘But his taxes, interest charges and fixed costs have doubled and in some cases have trebled. “In the light of these facts I ask| you whether we have an agricultur-| al problem. I ask you to whom your representatives in congress owe their first allegiance.” Power Trust Flayed ling to the people io vote heir government, state and national back into their own hands Nye declared the power trust and its activities today are an example of how government is responsive to the interests, i He.said that the international bridge spanning Niagara Falls is maintained fe, by the Canadian and Unite: States governments. Each lights half of the bridge. The cost of the federal government for lighting its half of the bridge is seven times as much as that of the Canadian government with both governments using power generated by the water that runs below it. “The power trust,” said Senator Nye, “is spending millions of dol- lars to influence thought. It is putting lame duck senators like enroot, of Wisconsin, on its pay rolls at princely salaries. It is put- ting textbooks favorable to its in- terests in our schools and in the case of Stewart, an instructor in the University of Minnesota, who was paid $5,000 a year from its coffers, it gives evidence it is hiring teachers in our universities. The federal trade commission is investigating the method: the activities of this group and I predict there will be revelations that will show the people very clearly to whom their government has become responsible. » the expenditures and all “If you watch the trend of this campaign you will find that neither party will undertake anything an- tagonizing the power trust, or write into its program of pri thing antagonizing them, for there is an established record’ that it is @ liberal contributor of enorrious| ac) we cash t» the campaign funds of both.” ‘inciples any- Nye closed his speech with a dis- cussion of the administration policy of keeping marines in Nicaragua and a review of the incidents in the oil scandal as in point in his argu- ment showing to what interests government is responsible today. —___.
