MANN Mingeapolis, Minn., Oct. 16.—Min- state by many political experts. Re- publican solidarity has been badly shattered and just how the embattled farmers are going to vote is the real key to the situation. The members of the “progressive bloc” in the United States senate, nominally at least Republican, are interesting themselves in the re-elec- tion of Senator Shipstead, who is running as a Farmer-Labor candi- date. Senator R. M. La Follette is touring Minnesota for Shipstead but is silent on the presidential issue. Situation Mixed Senator George W. Norris pre- ceded La Follette in the interests of Shipstead’s candidacy and likewise ignored Herbert Hoover. It is re- ported that Senator Nye will come here for Shipstead. The junior sen- ator from North Dakota has come out publicly for Hoover. Neutrality of several progressive Republican senators in their political tours of Minnesota has had the ef- fect of strengthening Smith’s fences in this, state. There has been a breaking down of party organiza- tion in Minnesota typical of what has occurred in Wisconsin and North Dakota. Senator Curtis has endorsed La Follette for re-election but the vice- presidential candidate let it be known here last week that if La Fol- lette continued to keep silent on the Crash in Rome Flight. Take-off S i] agles manager of ic Service company, to at- # national convention of his nesota is being listed as a doubtful | presidential issue, he would be forced to withdraw his endorsement. How Will Farmers Go? There is an imposing Farmer- Labor bloc in Minnesota just as there is a strong Nonpartisan League vote in North Dakota. Sen- ator Shipstead and his associates have been able to keep up an organ- ization and whether it is going for Smith or Hoover is as easily an- | swered as that old query of: The Lady or the Tiger? Democrats Obliging A few weeks ago, George Cash- man, Democratic candidate for United States senator, withdrew. Minnesota Republican leaders im- mediately jumped at the conclusion that Senator Shipstead in his quest for votes had made a pact with the Democrats to throw support to Al Smith. That any such coup d'etat is planned is denied vigorously by Sen- ator Shipstead. He declared in a | Press statement that he had made no deals of any kind and that he would stay at home rather than ride into the senate on any other candi- | date’s coat-tails. He promises to play a lone hand, and to keep out of the presidential contest between Re- publicans and Democrats. Yet, Senator Shipstead’s friends are not at all displeased at Cash- man’s withdrawal, and Democrats grenally think the move will boost | mith’s stock in the Gopher state, Send in Shock Troops | The Republican National Commit- tee has been sending its heavy ar- tile into Minnesota.

Hansbrough, former sen- ator from North Dakota, gave an ad- dress in Minneapolis a short time ago which brought a prompt repudi- ation from John J. Raskob, Smith’s manager. Hansbrough charged Hoover with being interested in oil land conces- sions .in Colombia Mexico, Mr, Raskob disclaimed any responsibility for Hansbrough’s Minneapolis ap- pearance and declared the former senator had no connection with the National Democratic committee. Mr. Hansbrough is heading an independ- |ent committee interested in Smith’s candidacy but without any commis- sion from the national committee.

Murphy, Wheaton, Minn., | | active in farm relief work, gave a | radio address under the auspices of | this organization.

Grain Men Meeting in Duluth Session Duluth, Minn., Oct. 16—(AP)— Grain men, shippers and rail execu- tives from the Dakotas and Min- nesota were here today to present their problems to the Northwest Shippers Advisory board holding its quarterly meeting Here. Approxi- mately 150 persons were here for the all-day discussion on crops, pena tation and marketing prob- lems. Duluth interests were again pre- pared to fight any attempt to place. an embargo on grain coming to the head of the Lakes. The problem of congestion here has been up before the board several times recently. — Reports cf large crops, despite smaller farm incomes, were brought by W. H. Perry of Minneapolis, R. F. Gunkelman of Fargo and A. H, Pol- leys of Missoula, vice chairmen for their respective states. The South Dakota chairman, A. W. Tompkins of Huron, however, reported poor crop conditions in his state as well as low prices and a_ generally de- pressing outlook for the farmers.

The history of newspaper development in America is closely linked with the history of man’s inventive genius. First use of the carrier pigeon as a means of news distribution was regarded as a bit of real enterprise. But when Morse invented the telegraph, journalism entered a new phase—the era of speed in news transmission. Today news events are flashed almost instantane- ously to the farthest corners of the earth—and we think nothing of it. What is even more marvelous today is the speed with which news pictures can be transmitted, and the unquestioned promise that even-greater wonders in picture distribution are in store in the: near future. It is a journalistic commonplace today to send important newspictures by telephone and radio, thus cutting hours, days, even weeks, off the time required by older methods. This paper, for its important pictures of, news events, relies on NEA Service, the world’s largest newspicture and feature agency, an organization which uses the full complement of modern. equip- ment in the transmission of its important pictures. That means this paper is first with the F gong of big news events. . As an instance of NEA enterprise, did you know that the nesses could affix their signatures to the instrument which he had signed, The. law provides that a will must be witnessed in the presence of the testator. Mercury producers of Italy and the .Spanish government have reached an agreement to regulate output in both countries in such a way as to supply the world demand without too much competition. Another ‘Queen’ 4 night Herbert Hoover was nominated in Kansas City NEA citume of the demonstration which greeted his name were on the Atlantic and Pacific coasts before that evening’s session adjourned? And when Pacific flyers landed at Honolulu, NEA pictures of their arrival were printed in San Francisco only a few hours later thesame day? That is speed, and it is charactetistic of NEA Service newspicture distribution.
