WEDNESDAY, MARCH 4, 1931 BILL 10 PROHIBIT OLEOMARGARINE USE BY STATE APPROVED Measure Also Regulates Sale of Dairy Products by North Dakota Institutions By a vote of 42 to 6, the North Da- kota senate Tuesday passed a house pill prohibiting use of oleomargerine in state institutions, and regulating the sale of dairy products by state in- stitutions. Senator J. E. Eastgate, Grand Forks county, opposed the bill strongly, de- claring that the bill would interfere with the sale of surplus dairy prod- ucts by the state penitentiary and the state training school at Mandan. Senator Frank E. Ployhar, Barnes county, said the measure would pre- vent the state from competing with producers and would be beneficiel Jegislation. He said it would not in- terfere with disposition of surplus. ‘The bill, introduced in the house through the delayed bills committee now goes to the governor. Senators Eastgate, Hyland, Lynch, Porter, Poupore, and Watt voted against the measure, while the rest of the senate membership voted for it with the exception of Senator Sathre, who was absent. ‘A house bill by Representative Jar- dine of Cass and McDowell of Cava- lier, providing for taxation on the gross earnings of express, sleeping car, telegraph, telephone, power and gas companies received approval of the senate. The vote was 27 to 20. ‘The senate passed the bill provid- ing for extending the period for the one-tenth mill capitol building levy from 1936 to 1940 inclusive. Under the present law the levy would con- tinue until 1936, but because of the Gestruction of the capitol by fire the time was extended. A bill providing for the exemption from taxation of grains stored in ele- vators, except seed grains, passed ‘The proposal originated in the house where it was introduced by Repre- sentatives Muus of Ward and Swett of Kidder. ‘The house bill transferring the re- maining business of the depositors’ guaranty fund commission was abol- ished when a referred measure to bring about the abolition was ap- proved by the voters last June, The ‘pill approved by the senate transfe1s “odds and ends” of the fund to the state examiner. Senator Dell Patterson, McHenry county, objected to the provision in the measure that all claims approved by the commission must be presented within six months but voted for the measure. The vote was 48 to 1, Sen- ator C. W. Fine, Benson county, cast- ing the negative ballot. ‘ A bill, introduced in the house by Representative Jardine of Cass coun- ty, providing for transferring $350,000 from the “returned soldiers’ fund” te the general fund of the state passed the senate.

SET NEW RECORD NPIS BS Senate Takes Final Action on 73 Measures During Tues- day's Legislative Day The North Dakota senate Tuesday established a record for the session for the number of bills acted on during any one day. Final legislative action was taken on 73 measures, of which but two were killed and the remainder passed. A majority of the bills were minor proposals, not of a controversial na- ture. The senate began the day early in the afternoon with 113 bills on the calendar, but after a steady grind throughout the day and at a night session, 40 remained. While some of the measures caused debate and dis- cussion, most of them were read and immediately passed. In addition nu- merous committee reports were con- sidered. Sale of the state mill at Drake ap- peared assured as the senate passed ‘ bill empowering the industrial com- mission to dispose of it. Ole Ette- stad, McHenry, was the only Non- partisan to vote for the bill. Representative L. E. Correll’s bill authorizing civil townships to jointly own and operate fire fighting equip- ment also passed, as did a bill author- izing municipal fire departments to attend fires outside of the corporate limits. Villages hereafter can legally ap- point night watchmen and provide for their salaries under a bill which passed without a dissenting vote. Heretofore nightwatchmen were paid by popular subscription among the townspeople, as no statute provided for hiring’ a police officer in a vil- lage except by election. Another bridge bill was sent on its way to the governor when one aD propriating $35,000 for a structure, across the Red river between Traill county and Norman county passed. | Other bills to pass-define and regu-' late sale and manuafcture of imita- tion ice cream; permits refunds by struction of federal highways passing | through them. ‘ ‘Al Capone Vagrancy Trial Is Postponed nesday to see Al Capone stand trial for vagrancy, but they went home with rain shee, for the next appear- Capone, and over the protest of the defense was given leave to file an) amended complaint. then scheduled ahead 16 days.

URGES FARMERS 10 BOOST ORGANIZATION Bonzer Says They Must Be Big- . ger Than ‘Any Political Par- ty’ to Win Respect Supporting the Farmers Union in its stand, Senator A. F. Bonzer Jr., Richland county, Monday night as- serted, in a radio speech, that the farmers of North Dakota must “have an organization bigger than any poli- tical party in the state” before their rights will be respected. Launching into a discussion of the Union’s legislative program, Bonzer charged that a bill prohibiting the sale of stored grain, killed Monday in the senate, had been made a political football. Agreeing that the present system: of selling stored grain acts as a hand- icap to the farmer, Bonzer asserted that the present system forces prices Gown when the farmer hopes it will rise; that the farmer is forced to pay Storage on grain no longer in exist- ence; that cooperatives have to carry insurance on this mythical grain and that the farmer is forced to borrow money obtained by the persons mak- ing the loans from sale of grain still owned, at least technically, by the farmer with the storage ticket. Commenting on the vote which killed the bill in the senate, Bonzer sald: “The only diversion from party lines was my vote as an I. V. A. for the measure and Senator Patten’s vote, as a Nonpartisan Leaguer, against the measure. I am entire- ly unable to explain why this should have been a party measure in: any particular and I believe it should convince you farmers that you must have an organization bigger than any Political party in the state before you are going to have your rights re- spected. It convinces me that you must elect senators and representa- tives and also state officers who are big enough to work for the welfare of the predominating class of our state, regardless of the whip of the political party bosses; whether he be Leaguer or Independent. Until you are big enough to do that you are go- ing to get the same treatment you got today in the killing of this worthy nieasure that your organization spon- sored. If you are willing, as Ameri- can citizens, to sit idly by and see your rights trampled in the dust by party bosses, then you no longer de- serve the heritage of American citi- zens given to you by your forefathers at Valley Forge.” FARMER UNION BODY WILL MARKET WOOL PORN W.

LICENSE TAG PLAN KILLED BY SENATE Reject Proposal to Make Plates at State Penitentiary as Too Costly A proposal to manufacture motor vehicle license tags at the state prison was killed in the North Dakota sen- ate today when the assembly adopted @ majority report of the state affairs committee recommending indefinite postponement of the measure. A minority report, re Passage, was rejected on roll call by @ 27 to 22 vote, after which the bill was killed without a record vote. Opponents of the measure con- tended that manufacture of the tags could not be carried out at the prison as cheaply as the plates are pur- chased at present. Senator W. D. Lynch of LaMoure told the senate that in states where tags are prison-made the cost ranges from 14 to 22 cents, while in North Dakota the plates are obtained at a cost of 8.6 cents. He claimed it would take an expenditure of $25,000 to pro- vide for-machinery for manufacture of the tags, and would then provide work for only about 20 or 30 prison- ers. Senator Walter Bond, of Ward called attention to an investigation made in the east by the Warden of the North Dakota prison, as to the feasibility of manufacturing license plates at the penitentiary. Bond de- clared tha’ it was found the cost for prison-made tags would be consider- ably higher than they can be pur- chased from private companies. The measure originated in the house where it was sponsored by Rep- resentatives Northridge of Barnes and McManus of Rolette.
