Mussolini and Pope MANY PRESIDENTIAL(| Veit for First Time RAGE COMPLICATIONS DEVELOP THURSDAY Progressives Will Back France Against M’Fadden and ‘General’ Coxey Additional complications in the po- litical maneuvers leading up to the presidential preference primary elec- tion March 15 came thick and fast Thursday from both Republican and Democratic sides of the fence. George T. Murray, Berthold, an- nounced that his brother, “Alfal: Bill” Murray, governor of Oklahoma, would campaign the state for the Democratic nomination while H. N. Tucker, secretary of the Progressive Republican party, announced that his faction would stand fast for Dr. J. I. France, former Maryland senator, as its candidate, He experssed opposition to such “progressive” candidates as Congressman Louis T. McFadden of Pennsylvania and “General” Jacob 8. Coxey of Ohio. Filing of candidacies by these men will be met by an ag- gressive campaign for France, Tuck- er said. ~ France expects to come to North Dakota to begin his campaign early in March. He previously had been expected to come here the last week in February. In addition to political speeches, he expects to deliver a lec- ture on “The Horrors of War” from THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE.

George Murray said the schedule worked out for his brother calls for addresses at Fargo and Valley City, March 3, Jamestown and Bismarck, March 4, and Rugby and Devils Lake, March 5. In Oklahoma City, how- ever, Murray declined to comment on his brother's statement here and said nothing will be forthcoming from him “until and if” he announces his candidacy. The Democrats faced a further complication when John Sprafka, Minto, Walsh county, filed as a can- didate for delegate to their national convention. He is expected to face separate slates of candidates to be nominated by the adherents of Mur- ray and Franklin D. Roosevelt. The petition contained 1,300 signatures. Only 533 names were necessary. At New York, Alfred E. Smith, Democratic Chairman Raskob and Governor Harry F. Byrd of Virginia conferred Thursday. Importance was attached to the meeting because of Smith’s statement Sunday that he is willing to: accept the Democratic nomination. At Springfield, Til, James Hamilton Lewis, U. 8. senator from Illinois, was placed in the running as a Demo- cratic candidate for president Thurs- day with receipt of a primary petition prepared in his behalf at the secre- tary of state’s office. France was placed in nomination as e Republican candidate by a man from Maryland. Letter From Percy ‘ Hansen to Business Men Bares Efforts (Continued from page One) member, to withdraw the Capital Change petitions. WAS yOu already know, we felt that we had no moral nor legal right to withdraw the petitions and that the matter will come to a vote on March 15. “Last Monday we sent out a state- ment to all of the newspapers of the state, both daily and weekly, and we were agreeably surprised that con- siderably more than 80 per cent of all of the papers of the state treated our statement as front page news and many editors and publishers, several from west of the Missouri river, have volunteered to help us in our campaign through the columns of their publications. “We are convinced that this re- sponse reflects a tremendous change in sentiment in all parts of the state in regard to our project. This change is a result of several things which are not directly connected with our proposal, but more especially because of the fact that we are making our campaign entirely upon economic grounds and are carefully avoiding all personal and political differences. “We propose to make an aggressive, clean-cut, economical campaign dur- ing the next four weeks—one that need not take a great deal of money but one which rests upon the active cooperation of all of the leading citi- zens of Jamestown. Pamphlet Is Published “The enclosed pamphlet will give you an idea of the style of our pro- posed campaign, and we are sure you will agree with us that it contains nothing to offend anyone in any way —personally, commercially or politi- cally—and that its distribution will be well worth while for the city, even from the standpoint of a commercial enterprise. “Would you be willing to serve on. a large general committee which would have for its objective the fur- therance of the campaign as out- lined above? “We are enclosing a stamped en- velope and trust we may have your reply some time today. “with kindest personal regards, Tam, “Yours very truly, “PERCY M. ISEN, “Sec'y., L. C. C. Ass'n.” Editor’s Note: Hansen's statement that the distribution of Jamestown’s propaganda “will be well worth while for the city, every from the of a commercial enterprise” repre- sents an effort to revive one of the claims upon which he first “sold” the capital removal idea to a large num- ber of Jamestown persons. Information reaching here is that| many of these persons now believe this to be poor advertising and are gr lieve the movement to be wrong in principle.

Debate was resumed on the senate side on the La Follette-Costigan bill to appropriate $375,000,000 for the un- employed. The senate added bak for road construction, bringing the total to $750,000,000. This measure was assailed before a house commit- tee by representatives of two patriotic organizations. Meanwhile, Secretary Hurley of the war department engaged in verbal fisticuffs with Senators Hawes (., Mo.) and King (D., Utah) over Philippine independence. In committee hearing they argued heatedly back and forth for some time. Hurley said he was against setting any definite time for inde- pendence. The senators have intro- duced a bill to free the Filipinos, Congressional leaders completed the draft of the emergency measure to further liberalize the federal re- serve rediscount facilities and early hearings were planned. The proposal by President Hoover was described in the house by Representative Busby (D., Miss.) as “a mere legislative pal- liative that is not going to meet the situation.” ‘ As the house debated miscellaneous legislation, the ways and means com- mittee appointed a sub-committee to study a general manufacturers sales tax.
