MONDAY, MARCH 4, 1929 NP CHUGUS SEEKS TO RESTORE UNTY AND BAL WOUNDS Secret Meeting Discusses : Breaks in Ranks in Legis- lature, but No Action NEW STATE PAPER URGED Tangible Results of Meeting Considered Negligible, but Optimism Is Saved Efforts to cauter':e the wounds of the Nonpartisan league and restore the league to political unity were made at a convention c: Nonpa-tisan league legislators and workers here Sunday at Patterson hall. For the first time in several years the meeting was secret and news- paper men barred. It became known that some of the ills ccnsideration was given to ways and means of curing them. R. W. Frazier, Crosby, chairman of the Nonpartisan execuitve com- mittee, presided. The executive com- tates called the meeting. Aticmpt to Scold Falls “ me inclination to call th- league legisixters to account for their: fail- ure to stand souwy together at this session was in evidence, but there wus Much attempted in that line. ‘Too many of the factional leaders are members of the legislature and there h too 1:ttle unity among Non- this session to make the ut ful. It was agreed that the faction is in bad shape, what with formidable outside opposition and internal dis- iintions, but it also was pointed out that conditions are not as bad as they might be from a Nonpartisan standpoint. Some speakers insisted that the clouds which obscure the Nenpartisan outlook are tinged with silver and that all the league necds do to find the silver lining is to get { ner, restore the breaches in the ranks and preseht a united front to their potitical enemies. Few were confident when the meeting was over, however, that this had been accom- plished. gest Reorganizing Organ of the means of restoring the leac::> to dominance considered Sun- day was that of organizing a news- paper which would be friendly to Nonpartisan aims. Since the North Dakota Nonpertisan, a weekly paper eated here, staggered into the limbo of dead newspapers the faction has been without an official publica- tion, valk was had regarding the ors: 2 of a newspap:r to ta.2 its place. The idea now being considered is to organize a daily newspaper which would have sub- scribers all over the state. The tangible results which came from the meeting with regard to the prneral condition of th> Nonpartisan league were doubtful, even to those et the meeting. Dissatisfaction with the pra | which legislative matters have taken, from a Nonpartisan standpoint, was evidenced by the appointment of a coiu.mittee which will take up with Nonpartisan lawmeters the action which should be taken on several measures now pending.: It will be ths committee’s job to induc> the Nonpartisans in the legislature to vote as a unit. particularly in the senate, - the league has a nominal ma- jority. Every time an issue has arisen in which party alignr-cnts might be expected, the Independents managed to obtain at least two Nonpartisans to support their stand, and two votes is all they need to change the Independent mi::ority of t! to a majority of one. REPORT DIVIDED ON MILL MANAGER PLAN Decision to present a divided re- port on the mill management bill sponsored by the administration, was reached by the senate state affairs committee without argument today. The majority report is expected to favor postponement of the bill. The report, however, will not be presented until tomorrow. When it finished its work this morning the committee had recom- mended passage of 11 bills and defeat of two others, including the Horner ‘bill to increase the state gasoline tax from two cents to three cents per gal- lon. The Watt bill, carrying the same provisions, already has passed the senate and now is pending before the house. : Among the bills recommended for , was one providing for a os ——_ ADVERTISEMENT FOR BIDS — ‘ Sealed bids will be received she waterwo! bord the nek it and Ateel ry on file w! ed. by. cent Hed an EeNeae, enue, Pad Git Comyienioners.

PENWARDEN, 28; 3/4-7e1L. - Clerk. THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE Seven years in the White House have wrought little change in Calvin Coolidge. Here is pictorial evidence that the arduous life that has prematurely aged many chief executives of the past h: had small effect on the silent, rugged man from Vermont. For the portrait at the left was made in 1923, when the death of Warren G. Harding brought Mr. Coolidge to the presidency. The portrait at the right is his most recent one, and it’s hard to differ- entiate between them. You'll note that his hair is a little thinner and grayer now. Too, his face now is more deeply lined, his mouth may be a bit more firm, but his eyes seem to have gained a quizzical twinkle. And Mr. Coolidge actually is leaving the White House ten pounds heavier than when he entered it! PAGEANTRY OF PAST CLIMAXES HOOVER'S INDUCTION TO OFFICE Nation’s Enthusiasm Reflected in 15,000 Persons March- ing in Parade PLANE PHALANX PASSES BY “Pawnee Bill’ Leads 200 Indians Honoring Their Blood Brother—Curtis Washington, March 4.—(4)—Wash- ington turned to the elaborate pa- geantry of the past today to climax Herbert Hoover's induction into office with the spectacle of many thousahds of massed marchers. < Pennsylvania avenue, transformed almost overnight from a work-a-day thoroughfare, reflected in glowing color a nation’s enthusiasm. An esti- mated 15,000 persons had places in the huge parade itself. A display of aircraft, with the navy airship Los Angeles the chief attraction was ar- ranged as a spectacular sight that set today’s exhibition in an historic class by itself. The great dome of the capitol its time mellowed stone brightened by the reflected gaiety of flags, domi- nated the straight cleft street on one side. On the sweeping expanse of the east plaza, fronting asphalt reaches studded with benches for thousands, reared the classic-columned inaugur- al stand, erected as a pulpit of the people for the thirty-first chief exec- utive of the United States to intone his address of office to thousands here and by radio.to untold millions the world over. There was not an iota of space not utilized for spectators in the long stretch of the avenue. Crack Troops Parade In the parade were places for methodically marching crack mili- tary units, carefree striding Indians, @ great contingent of state governors and their staffs, political clubs, and just plain enthusiasts. The army, navy and marine corps had gathered more than half a hundred planes in the city. ‘The sky parade was timed to flash into view as Mr. Hoover began the was provided for the with Brig. Gen.

Washington inaugural offi- clals had obtained horses for the Indians who cared to ride. Other Indians who had reserved places included Jamcé and Belle Auld of the Kaw tribe—vice president Cur- tis’ ancestry. The Cheyennes, Sioux, Assiniboines and the Kaws were represented from the reservations in South Dakota, Montana, and Wyoming. The grandstands that lined the avenue seated 47,000 persons. And some $150,000 was obtained from the sale of seats. And estimated 3,000 to 5,000 spectators bought window space, and the great horde of the footloose soy stood where places could be found, SPURIOUS ALLIANCE AUTHOR CONFESSES Brussels, March 4—(AP)—Con- fession of forgery today cleared clouds of suspicion which endanger- ed the foundation of European post- war relations. Police, after arresting Albert Frank Heine, described as a great grandson of the famous poet, Hein- vich Heine, said he had admitted authorship of the alleged secret mili. tary alliance treaty between France and Belgium published in a Utrecht newspaper last week.

Request for the appropriation fol- lows the ne by the house of a bill for separate ‘appropriation of $5,000 for barberry eradication. Appearing before the committee were President John Lee Coulter, of the agricultural college, James 8. Milloy, of the Great- er North Dakota association, and Walter Maddock, of the Farmers’ Union. The committee also considered the general appropriation for the experi- ment station but took no action. A cut of from five to two mills in the maximum levy by which cities can establish development and plan- ning commissions was made by the house committee on cities and mu- nicipal corporations in considering a bill to permit such levy and to au- thorize such commissions. The com- mittee also restricted the bill, which originally included townships, coun- ties and regional districts, to include only villages and cities.

Mill Fight Leoks Ominous The senate faces what may be the biggest battle of the session, on the bill to create a commission of three to operate the state mill and elevator. A majority of the senate Nonpar- | P! tisans are against it, but it is doubt- ful if the Nonpartisans ‘will vote as a unit. If they do, it will be the the first time at this session. The mill management bill should be reported out by the senate state affairs committee today or tomorrow, and the general expectation is that the committee will . ‘The ma- jority of the committee is to vote to kill the bill, and the real battle will come on the floor.

There also should be plenty of time for the usual con- a the case. The house was relatively in better shape than the senate, but the sen- ate works more expeditiously when it gets started and its roll calls are shorter. This morning the house had 51 measures awaiting final action, of which only 25 still were in the h-¢3 of committees. The senate had 73 bills to act upon, and more than 50 of these were in the hands of committees. Extended committee sessions with- in the next two days will see them ready for fins] action on the floor, however.
