D., Aug. 2—()—Organi- zation of the Great Plains Missouri River Development association was under way today. The initial step, consummated yes- terday, resulted in election of Frank L. Anders, Fargo, as president and de- cision to meet at Valley City, coinci- dent with the conclave of the North Dakota League of municipalities, when complete organization will be effected. ‘The board of directors, which has been vested with authority to enroll Tepresentatives from the two Dakotas and Minnesota, consists of: Frank Hyland, Devils Lake; H.

The concrete ition rests on sandstone, bal- Jasted with Hettinger county stones. “Already the ham has backed water up sufficient so that New Eng- land residents are swimming at Coney Island bathing beach again. You know, we: built two beautiful bath houses there last year. Coney Island is just above the dam. “C. L.

Last year we all pulled together to build a dam, and the spring freshets this year ‘Washed it out. “The dam we are building now is tied to the foundations of the old bridge. It is built to last for years, “We have spent $1,500 on the dam so far, money that was raised by subscri| and the receipts from dances. We still need some, and New Englanders are so proud of their work that they will gladly ‘dig down’ for the additional cash that will be needed,” Mr. Connolly said.

If not, can anyone think up any candidate to run against him this fall who would have any chance of winning? Here is New York’s favorite son and first citizen, a man of great personal charm, unique talents, and a million dollar _personality—but should be master of the city hall? The Citizens’ Union says no, says it decidedly and unequivocally, and it urges New Yorkers to throw Jimmy out and get someone in his place who will not put his personal friends and henchmen first, and Ict the public good come second. Not Serious eee In effect, they say that Walker is a_ swell fellow, but a poor mayor. They maintain you can’t make a part time job out of the mayorship of the largest city in the world. They contend it is serious business and should be regarded as such. Walker got away to a good start, they say, because he came into of- fice when the “public was weary of the sham and demagogy of the Hy- lan administration.” Hylan made a ritual out of being mayor and Walk- er made it a joke. He injected the flavor of Broadway into the staid city hall. He started right out to be himself, and made a great success of it. He was among those present at Hav- ana, Miami, London, Rome and way points, and was not above mal whoopee. The city seemed to man- age itself very nicely in his absence, and everyone liked to see him en- joying himself. “Night Mayor” of New York Hizzoner established himself as a wit and a raconteur. He can wise- crack with the wisest, and twist a phrase to suit his purpose. He al- ways has liked night clubs, races and dancing, and being mayor has never kept him from them. New York de- lighted to call him the Night Mayor. Walker is the sartorial triumph) of Manhattan. There is a minimum of 70 suits in the mayor’s wardrobe, and ten of them are always in the tailor shop. His haberdashery bill is about $300 a year. He always is well ahead of the mode, with juct a suggestion of the actor in his odd, but very well chosen color schemes, | his buttonhole bouquet, his canes. Although he is anxious to please, no one ever has caught Jimmy kow- | towing. No one has ever accused| him of being high hat. And even! Walker Is Called Failure as Mayor; ig | Certainly no city administration was Seeks an Opponent while the Citizens’ Union is out after his scalp, it gives him credit for; much ability. Political Wise Man, They Say It gives him credit for great polit- ical sagacity when he went to the bat for five cent subway fare, and it admits that his establishment of the department of hospitals was a good move—but says he marred the effectivene: of it by filling the new posts with friends and henchmen, ea than men qualified to hold the chs. When Walker took office he said: “My office is an open window through which anybody may look at the city’s affairs. I intend to keep the window opened wide and every- body who wishes is welcome to look.” Graft is Charged The Citizens’ Union took a good lcok before it submitted a report. Members point to the increase of $110,000,000 in the city budget un- der his administration, and an in- crease of $4,000,000,000 in as;css- ments. They complain of graft and cumbersome city machinery, with so many employes on the city payroll sata they can almost swing an elec- ion. Meanwhile, dapper Jimmy goc his way, making good speeches, and putting in a little time at city hall. “t'o man can make cven a moderate success out of being mayor without public support,” he said. “It is a task where confidence means much. ever more fortunate in evidences of good will.” If he is worried about votes this fall, he doesn’t show it, any more than he shows his forty-odd years, They're Friendly Enemies The Citizens’ Union represents a group of conservative, thoroughly practical citizens. Their indictment of Walker is neither bitter nor vit- riolic. They appreciate the extra- ordinary personal qualities of the man, and lots of them know him well ard like him. It once was rumored that Walker would be given 2 $100,000 job in 1930 as president of the American League. The Citizens’ Union would love to see Walker offered that or some other fat, plummy job that would give him an opportunity to exercise his unique talents, and keep him before the public, as he should But right now, it looks mighty tough for any candidate who dares to run against him this fall. oin the millions who pre- fer this pleasant— and NORMAL— way of guarding against constipation ....

The union, which numbers 450 men, a majority of the city’s ice cream makers, met last night and decided to try to force the manufacturers to recognize their organization and also to try to get higher pay and shorter hours. They decided, however, that it was no time to try to make the public “ice cream conscious.” the mercury just having dropped about 20 degrecs. So the strike was sct—for the next hot wave. HAUGLAND FUNERAL HELD AT BUFFALO Refueling Plane, With Escort, Brings Body of Flight Vic- tim to Former Home Buffalo, Minn., Aug. 2—(#)—Funer- al services were held today for Owen Haugland, killed Monday in the crash of his endurance plane, The Minnesota, ‘The body was brought here aboard the “Ace High,” which was used to refuel The Minnesota during its en- durance attempt.
