S. McDonald, Nonpartisan candidate for commissioner of agriculture and labor. “Whatever victories the Nonparti- sans have won in years gone by have been won by the farm vote, and what- ever victories have been won by the I. V. A's have been won by the votes from the towns and cities of the state,” Husby said. “The question therefore that will be settled in this election is whether or not the I, V. A.'s in the small towns looking for cooperative creameries and better marketing facilities are going to reelect Joseph Kitchen and @ centralized-controlled dairy depart- ment to act as a stumbling block for them or are they going to elect Mr. McDonald, who believes that cooper- ative creameries are entitled to friendly and constructive support,” Husby stated further that “outside of what the Nonpartisans haye done in establishing the state mill and elevator, not a single constructive thing has ben accomplished to give better marketing facilities, even after President Hoover and Chairman Legge of the federal farm board have specifically recommended that the solution of the whole movement must come from the well organized local units here at home. “Permit me to ask the pertinent question as to what fs wrong with at least one -politier-“faction~ in~thts state, seeing that it has not made a single move to put a constructive pro- gram across. “Is it possible, therefore, that this faction is too boss-ridden and its leaders too closely allied with inter- ests who are in opposition to any . | Changes or interference with the pres- ent marketing situation?” Husby declared that, while holding office under Kitchen he met “with the same kind of opposition as Chair- man Legge has met in the farm board.” He charged that repeated attempts were made to ‘get’ him by a group representing “the large , centralized creameries of this state,”. and for that reason he was not reappointed as dairy er by Kitchen. and| Anton Ness, Mandan Faith Healer Hurt in Auto Crash, Improves Valley City, N.
