RECREATION HEAD SPEAKS 10 WOMEN CONVENTION HERE Delegates to B. P. W. Meeting in Bismarck Hear Address by John Reel i i i 3 i re ii i F if EX ‘i <7) 4 8 A i g & 8 5 i ? 3 MISS SHULER HEARD AGAIN ms Reports of Five Standing Com- mittees Given During Busi- hess Session Definite work along recreational lines which clubs would do well to eponsor were suggested by John Reel, recreational director for Bismarck, in @ talk before the state convention of Business and Professional Women's clubs in session here Saturday. Girls from the U. 8. Indian school, under the supervision of Mrs. Sharon R. Mote, offered a demonstration to show hae Gries sand aaneiog. or 3n music, dramatics, and . In- cluded in this part of the ‘were songs by the gleé club, a dance. Specialty by Mary Slater and Pris-! cilla Hoste, readings by Marian Slater and Eleanor Partain and a songeand Sana by Victoria Twigg and Eleanor in. Reports of five standing commit- tees were presented during the busi- ness session at which Gladys Tomp- kins, Devils Lake, presided. Judged by People “Don't expect your community to be judged by its fine buildings, its parks or paved streets,” Reel urged. “Your town will always be judged by its people and the things they do to make it a better and happier place to live,” he continued, “and this means that they must not be too commer- cially minded. Describing the delegates as a fa- vored group because of their stand- ings in their own communities, the speaker mentioned the activities in- cluded in the state and national pro- grams. He said that there still is room for much work of constructive nature for the individual clubs. Among activities which he believed might well be correlated with the club program were child health work; encouraging recreation for the youtn of the town as a means of crime pre- vention; sponsoring special courses in schools and playground work. He asked each club to asce what is being done towards finding a situation for the unemployed girl in its community; about stimulating business by increased buying; and in promoting peace and good will. Says State Fortunate People in this state are fortunate in that it is a young state and they are priveleged to contribute to its history, according to Miss Hazel Mc- Culloch, history instructor at the Minot State Teachers’ college, who spoke Saturday morning on Historical Map of North Dakota.” “North Dakota has some of the most important historical sites in the ‘United States, she told the conven- tion. The Lewis and Clark camp site and the Verendyre camp were cited as examples. Using the historical map prepared by Russell Reid and Clell Gannon grouped ‘the state history about the various eras, beginning with the gla- cial period. Successive steps in its development were marked by the coming of the Indians and the arirval of the white man; claims to the state put forward ‘by foreign countries; the Louisiana purchase and the exploration of west- ern Dakota by Lewis and Clark, she said. This was followed by the period of the American fur traders and the establishment of a military. frontier, with forts along the Missouri. Four new clubs received charters Saturday afternoon. They were La- kota, Cando, Rugby and Dickinson. Special committees reported, with the election and installation of officers and the awarding of prizes in the club growth contest as closing features. Projects which help to make the younger girl @ more useful member of the community and a more effi- cient business woman was presented by four speakers during the after- noon. They were Miss Helen Katen, secretary of the state tuberculosis association; John R. Page, director of high schools; Mrs. E. O. Bailey, juvenile commissioner for Morton county; and Mrs. Eric Thorberg, pres- ident of the Bismarck Girls Work ‘Council. A banquet at 7 o'clock in the Ter- race Gardens of the Patterson hotel, ‘with Miss Shuler as the speaker, will close the convention. 10,000,000 Wage Earners ‘Wage-earning women in the Unit- ed States number 10,000,000 and are represented in practically every occu- pation, Miss Marjorie Shuler, New ‘York, publicity chairman of the na- stional federation of business and pro- fessional clubs, informed the conyen- tion Friday afternoon. au, in the day, heed einer dis- el the orga vy ve~ ments in this country, and in bring- ing about better understanding be- tween nations. a Mrs. George F. Shafer entertained the women at & tea at the 8 mansion following Miss Shuler'’s ad- dress, and Friday night the women gathered at o dinner. “Eleven years ago, when the 1920 census was compiled,’ Shuler told the convention, “there were 572 cccupations- and women were engag- ing in all but 35 of them. Most these additional occupations are now cpen ‘to them. “There are women dentists, doctors and undertakers; women lawyers and judges; women prospect for oil in ‘Texas and Oklahoma, serve as for- est’ rangers in California, own and force in civic affairs.” “Upon their. zeal, their vision, their consecrated faith will depend much Hm i Progress of the future,” she a World Dictatorship Charged by Pontiff, (Continued from page 1) bed Leng instt of i nations, and en- langers public order, peace and tran- quillity the world over.” Must Protect All good | tates is, the good of whole communities must be safeguarded. By these principles es rare hore) inbred is forbid- n to exclude anot! from a in the profits. aie “This sacred law is violated by the irresponsible wealthy. class which, in the excess of its good fortune, deems it a just state of things that it should receive everything and the laborer nothing. an violated also by the unpro} wage-earning class which demands for itself all the fruits of production as being the work of its hands.” In this connection he concludes, “each class then must receive its due share, and the distribution of created goods “nust be brought into conform- ity with'the demands of the common good and social justice. “For every sincere observer is con- scious that there are vast differences between the few who hold excessive wealth, and the many who live in destitution. These constitute a grave evil in modern society.” ‘The condition of the working man has been improved in many respects, he said, but there is an immense army of rural laborers whose condi- tion is depressed in the extreme and who have no hope of ever obtaining a share in the land. “These, unless efficacious remedies are applied, will remain perpetually sunk in their proletarian condition. It is true that there are formal dif- ferences between pauperism and pro- | Prof letarianism, but nevertheless the im- mense number of unpropertied wage earners on the one hand and the supezabundant riches of the fortun- ate few on the other is an unan- swerable argument that the earthly goods so abundantly produced in this ‘The | age cf industrialism are far from rightly distributed and equitably shared among the various classes of men. “Every effort. therefore must. be made ‘hat at least in the future a just share only of the fruits of pro- duction be permitted to accumulate in the hands of the wealthy and that an ample sufficiency: be supplied to the working man. Urges Thrifty Management “The purpose is not that these be- come slack at their work, for man is born to labor as the bird to fly, but that by thrift they may increase their possessions and by prudent manage- ment may be enabled to bear the family burden with greater ease and security, being freed from that hand- to-mouth uncertainty which is the lot of the proletarian.” ‘The pontiff declared it a false prin- ciple that “the worth of labor and therefore the equitable return to be made for it should equal the worth of its net result. “Thus the right to the full product of his toll is claimed for the wage earner. How erroneous this appears from what we have written concern- ing capital and labor.” In labor as in ownership, he said, there is a social as well as a personal or individual aspect to be considered and “unless above all the brains of capital and labor combine in common effort, man’s toll cannot produce due Proofs.” the modest household, the pope said: “The working man must have sufficient wages to support efforts to overcome all difficulties and obstacles and let them be aided in ‘this wholesale endeavor by wise meas- ures of public authority. “In the last extreme, counsel must be taken whether the business man can continue or whether some other provision should be made for the workers. The guiding spirit in this crucial decision should be one of mu- tual understanding and Christian harmony between the employers and the workers.” ‘ The pope said two things are par- ticularly necessary: “Reform of the social order and correction of morals.” Because of the evils of individual- ‘ism, he said, the social life “hes been damaged and all but ruined, leaving virtually only- individuals ard the state.” conditions have rvsulted in large corporations doing whut for- merly was done by small bodies but adjust as it is wrong to withdraw from the individual and commit to the community at large what private en- terprise and industry can accoraplish, 80 too it is a grave evil and a distur- bance of the right order for the larger and higher organization to arrogate to itself functions which can be per- formed efficiently by smaller and lower bodies.” Discusses Fascist State ‘Without mentioning Premier Mus- solini’s Fascist state and its basic principle of corporate organization both of employers and employes, the discussed it, listing its advan- and disadvantages. “Little reflection is required,” said the pope, ‘to perceive the advantages of an institution” which includes “peaceful collaboration of the classes, repression of social organizations and efforts, and the moderating influence of special ministry.” Regarding its disadvantages, he said, “We feel bound to add that to our knowledge there are some who fear that the state is substituting it- self in place of private initiative, in- stead of limiting itself to necessary and sufficient help and assistance. “It the new syndical and corpor- ative institution possesses excessive bureaucratic and political power above, it risks serving particular po- litical alms rather than contributing to the initiation of a better social order.” The difference between the Catho- lie and Socialist viewpoints, he said, is that the former holds that man |&26 was placed on this earth to attein temporal and eterna] happiness. Socialism, he said, is not concerned with this sublime end and affirms that living in community was insti- tuted merely for the sake of the ad- vantages which it brings to mankind. The pontiff condemned the new doctrine of cultural socialism and called upon Catholics who have be- come Socialists to return to the church. . Urges Return to Church The longed-for social reconstruc- tion, he said, must be preceded by @ found renewal of the Christian spirit “from which multitudes en- gaged in industry in every country have unhappily departed.” | Other- wise, he said, all endeavors will be futile. ‘The condition of the economic world today “lays more snares than ever before: for human frailty. Be- cause the uncertainty of economic conditions and of the whole economic regime demand the keenest straining of every energy on the part of those engaged therein,” he said. “As a result, some have become so hardened against conscience as to hold all means good which enable them to increase their profits and to safeguard against sudden changes of fortune the wealth amassed by un- remitting toil.” ‘The pope inveighed against specu- lation which raises and lowers prices out of mere greed for gain. ‘The worst injustices and frauds take place beneath the obscurity of the common name of the corporate firm,” he said. Insistence on the moral law, he suggested, could have dispelled and perhaps averted these enormous evils. “With the leaders of business aban- doning the true path,” he said, “it is not surprising that in every country multitudes of working men also sank in the same morass. ‘The mind shudders, he said, consid- ering the frightful perils to which. the morals of boys and young men and the virtue of girls and women are ex- posed in modern factories. Men Are Corrupted “And so bodily labor which was de- creed by providence for the good of man’s body and soul, even after the sin, has everywhere been into an instrument of strange perversion, for dead matter leaves the factory enlivened and transformed where men are corrupted’ and de- cl himself and his family. It is right in-| graded. deed that the rest of the family con- tribute according to their power to- ward the common maintenance, as in rural homes or in the families of many artisans and small shopkeepers. “But it is wrong to abuse the ten- der years of children or the weakness of woman. Mothers will, above all, devote their work to their homes and the things connected with them. “Intollerable and to be opposed with all our strength is the abuse whereby mothers of families, because of the insufficiency of the father’s salary, are forced to engage in gainful occu- pations outside the domestic walls to the neglect of their own proper cares and duties, particularly the education of their children. “Every effort must be made there- fore that the fathers of families re- ceive a wage sufficient to meet ade- quately’ the ordinary domestic needs. Reforms -“If in the present state of society this is not.always feasible, social jus- demands that reforms be intro- duced without delay. which will guar- antee every adult working man just For this ruin of souls, he contin- ued, “there can be no other remedy than a frank and sincere return to the teaching of the Gospel.” All created goods, he said, are mere instruments under God to be used only in so far as they help toward attainment of our supreme end. Nevertheless, he said, “those en- gaged in production are not forbid- den to increase their fortunes in law- ful and just manner. Indeed. it ts just that he who renders service to society and develops its wealth should himself have his proportionate share of the increased public riches, pro- vided always that he respects the alone, about @ union of hearts and minds. ‘The church of Christ, he said, has nothing to fear even were the social +h spurns the laws of na- permitted to pre- Harmony encyclical with union and good men. urge their own persistence,” he abandon them, the expansion of modern industry, had enormously increased in num- bers but whose rightful position in society had not yet been determined and who in consequence were ob- jects of much neglect and contempt.” Quotes Leo's Principle The encyclical quoted Pope Leo's principle that civil power is more than @ mere guardian of law and or- der, adding “the duty of the rulers is to protect the corimunity and its various elements, and in protecting the right of individuals they must have special regard for the infirm and the. needy.” Pope Leo's encyclical he firmly de- clared to be, in the words of Isaiah, “a_standard set up unto the nations.” This, Pope Pius said, is shown by reforms in social conditions attempt- ed in the peace treaties which fol- lowed the World war, treaties in which “many of the conclusions agreed so perfectly with the princi- ples of Leo XIII as to seem expressly deduced from them.” ‘The rerum novarum, said Pope Pius, evolved into a “truly Christian zocial science” which was fostered, enriched and taught to the world in imany institutions and spread by many pubitcations. ‘ ‘The aitthority of the church to deal to social problems was strongly up- “We lay down the principles, long since clearly established by Pope Leo XIII that it is our right and our duty. to deal authoritatively with social and cconomic problems,” the Pope said. Seeks Eternal Happiness “It is not, of course, the office of the church to lead mea to transient and perishable happiness only, but to that which is eternal; indeed the church believes it would be wrong for her to interfere without just cause in such earthly concerns but she never can relinquish her God-given task of interposing her authority not indeed in technical matters for which she has neither the equipment nor the mission, but in all those which have a bearing on moral conduct.” The pope said he looked forward confidently “to the complete and much desired renewal of human s0- ciety.” Associations of working men, he ‘sald, provide glad signs of the coming’ social reconstruction because they contain masses of young workers’ who listen readily to the call of divine) e. “Nowadays, as more than once in the history of the church,” he said, “we are confronted with a world which in large measure has almost fallen back into paganism.” The course to be followed, he said, is the creation and training of the lay apostolate among workingmen and employers.

Clark, Former Deputy District Attorney, Faces Murder Charge Los Angeles, May 23.—()—Investi- gation of the slaying of Charles| Crawford, wealthy politician, and! Herbert Spencer, magazine editor, for which David H. Clark, former deputy district attorney, is held, centered Saturday on Los Angeles politics. Having formally charged Clark with the murders, Buron Fitts, district at- torney expressed the belief the motive would be found in city politics and} announced a grand jury investigation would be asked. The political investigation was Paralleled by a search for a woman’ who, authorities said, might supply valuable information about the ac- tivities of Crawford, Spencer and Clark, the latter a candidate for a municipal judgeship in the June elec- tions. Has ‘Plenty to Say’ Clark, who left Fitts’ office last February after eight years of service, surrendered Thursday night after three persons said he was the third man in Crawford's Hollywood real estate office at the time of the shoot- ing. Wednesday, Clark refused to an- swer questions about the shooting, announcing, however. that when the proper time came he would ‘have plenty to say.” “It's going to be a war,” Fitts said. “It's time for a cleanup and it will be a real one.” re Clark, whose campaign was opposed by Crawford and Spencer, was ac- BRIQUETTING PLANT M'Dowell to Manage Bond Sale to Finance Revival of In- quainted, detectives said, with June Taylor, owner of a small downtown hotel.

Clark Waits Calmly In the county jail, Clark waited dustry at Lehigh Dickinson, May 23.—A state-wide campaign for the sale of bonds to reopen the Lehigh Briquetting plant here will begin immediately, Wesley McDowell, former North Dakota sen- ator in charge of the campaign, an- nounced today. McDowell has been in Dickinson the last fortnight meeting with busi- ress men and service clubs to ac- quaint them with plans for the pro- 8. Polonsky, Troop 80, sec- | hosed reopent re ing. Under the plan, an additional car- bonizer is to be added to the now idle million dollar plant, enabling pro- duction to be doubled and the plant to pay‘greater profits. Lack of ma- chinery to produce an adequate sup- ply of briquets 1s believed to have been one reason for the forced clos- ing of the plant some months ago. Opening of the plant will mean an additional $300,000 payroll to the city of Dickinson and employment of its idle men. + With the present plant capacity, the total labor and salary cost against one ton of briquets is $4.89 and the total mining cost for lignite for one ton of briquets is in excess of $3, the two items making a total of $7.89, Total labor and salary costs for each ton of briquets, under the pro- posed additional capacity of about 200 tons of briquets a day, drops to mining costs etting company of all the capital stock is owned by North Dakota citizens.

Police said they believed 8 woman who visited San Quentin prison Fri- day and conferred with Albert Marco, reputed Los Angeles underwor!d boss, who is serving a sentence for at- tempted murder, was Miss Taylor. She gave the name of Mrs. A. M. Donovan. Officers said Miss Taylor became *| tives in the World war. | their CORNELL GRADUATES ‘KILLED DURING WAR HONORED BY HOOVER President Converts Rapidan Camp Into Broadcasting Studio for Program Orange, Va., May 23.—(?)—Presi- dent Hoover Saturday converted his cabin at the Rapidan camp into a broadcasting studio to deliver a radio eulogy of American war dead as part of the dedication of the Cornell un!- versity war memorial. In erecting such memorials, he |said, the country does: not seek to glorify war or perpetuate hatreds, but seeks instead to commemorate the courage, devotion, and sacrifice of those who gave their lives for their fellows and their country. “We do not condemn our own action or belittle the high motives and ideals which based our efforts when we acknowledge that the war was a catastrophe.” There is no way of adding to the glory of those who died, he said, but the people of the country and thelr descendants “will be the better for remembering them.” His speech follows in part: “Fourteen years ago this morning a group of American boys carried an American flag into the fighting on the Aisne front, and thereby made a splendid gesture symbolical of the might of the new world mustering for the decisive issue. Tinkham Was Leader “This unit was composed of under- graduates of Cornell university and was under the leadership of Captain Edward Tinkham, a Cornell student in the class of 1916. It was a van- guard of a mighty army of American youth that flowed across the Atlantic in the months that followed. In this army were 9,000 other Cornellians who followed Tinkham’s unit in the na- tion’s service. “Two hundred and sixty-four of them did not return. I am happy to- day to take part in the dedication of @ permanent memorial to those men of Cornell university who lost their Significant in Itself, this, memorial takes on a broader aspect. While we pay tribute specifically to the service of the 264 Cornell men whose names are carved in this beautiful shrine, the occasion recalls the great part in our war ef- fort played by the men of all our uni- versities and colleges. “These young men of the Tinkham unit were typical American boys. Their experiences and their reactions typify the response of American youth everywhere in the hour of crisis. Vol- unteers sprang. up right and left; young men eagerly offered to risk future—their _lives—because they wanted to do their man’s share in a crisis of the world. “Without one atom of selfishness, they sought to carry out their ideal of manhood. It involved hardships, danger, even death, but they were un- afraid. With heads erect, with vi- brant tread, they left their training camps. “Alive with purpose, alive with honor, alive with faith, their only an- xiety was how quickly they could get. ever there. They had no illusions about what was ahead of them. Life to them had been sweet, joyous, and carefree. Tomorrow it might be end- ed. Yet they never faltered and gave up all for a cause which they believ- ed to be right. There was no search- ing for hidden motives or for ulter- ior purposes. Accepted Whatever Came “They accepted whatever came with a smile, and they did not ask ques- tions. They had no hatred in their hearts, but they went about their Job with a full resolve to play the man’s part in a terrible business. “Their patriotism never wavered but rather their devotion grew and | found its way back to the quiet camp- | eg! uses which they had left in the full flush of their youthful enthusiasm. “To them and to all those from Cornell who followed them we dedi- cate this memorial. In speaking for the Cornell dead I am drawing the attention of this nation to all of its university war dead, indeed, to all our youth who went over, never to come back. “In this memorial, as in all our other memorials, we do not seek to glorify war or to perpetuate hatreds. ‘We are commemorating not war, but the courage and the devotion and the sacrifice of those who gave their lives tor their fellows and for their coun- try. We raise these because we are able to remember the ideals which acquainted with Clark during the lat- ter’s prosecution of Marco and that a possible frameup against Clark, with Miss Taylor figuring in it, might have been a motive for the killings. They said the linking of Clark's name with the woman would have hurt his cam- paign for the municipal judgeship. Dickinson Stores Will Close May 30 Dickinson, N. D., May 23.—May 30 has been declared a holiday in Dick- inson by William Kostelecky, presi- dent of the city commission, in order that all may pay their respects to de- parted war veterans.

CONGRESSMEN SEEMS IMPROBABLE President Believes Emergency Call Would Hinder Eco. nomic Recovery Washington, May 23.—(#)—Because he believes a special session of con- gress would hinder economic recovery, President Hoover has decided against calling one. His statement to this effect at the regular press conference Friday was interpreted as a direct answer to Senate Republican Independents and others who have insisted an extra session should be convened to deal with unemployment and the depres- sion. One of the most recent demands for an “immediate” assembly came earlier in the week from Senator La- Follette, Wisconsin Independent Re- publican. ‘The president said: “I do not propose to call an extra session of congress. I know of noth- ing that would so disturb the healing processes now undoubtedly going on in the economic situation. We can- Not legislate ourselves out of a world economic depression; we can and will work ourselves out. A poll of the members of congress would show that @ large majority agree with me in opposing an extra session.” The presidential statement was in- terpreted as leaving no room for a change of mind, and congresional leaders are making no plans for a meeting before the regular date in KELLOGG MAY BE PARLEY DELEGATE Former Secretary of State Con- sidered to Represent U. S. Next Year Washington, May 23—()—'The American whose name is attached to the famed Kellogg-Briand pact to outlaw war may represent his coun- try at the general disarmament con- ference next year. Frank B. Kellogg, former secretary of state who now is a judge of the permanent court of international justice, is being mentioned in pre- liminary discussions as a possible del- ate. It appears likely the United States delegation will include three mem- bers, one of them Hugh S. Gibson, ambassador to Belgium.
