i it T. ‘HE BISMARCK TRIBUNE, WEDNESDAY, JUNE 8, 1932 rg nny Handful of Men to Name Presidential Republican and Democratic Strings Will be Pulled From Behind Scenes Washington, June 7.—From the days of Thomas Jefferson and Alexander Hamilton down to the Present, politi- cal bosses have playea a major part in the making of presidents. Pending! events at Chicago this month will’ have no exception. Convention delegates may vote, cheer } and stage wild parades around the convention hall—but the decisions up- on which they act usually are’ made in advance at quiet conferences be- tween the men who pull the strings from behind the scenes. It has been estimated that 1,000 of the 1,154 dele- gates to the Democratic convention this year will be controlled by 25 or 30 men. The Republican bosses will have little to do this year except to go through certain formalities, such as the renomination of President Hoover, and write a prohibition plank which seems to have been framed in ad- vance. Some of the most powerful Demo- cratic leaders, however, are opposed to Governor Franklin D. Roosevelt of New York, and they hope they can get enough help from other powerful bosses whose position is as yet uncer- tain to keep Roosevelt from ‘the nom- ination and to nominate their own choice. There is much doubt whether they can do that because there is no solid lineup of machine-controlled delegate blocs in the northeast such as has killed off leading candidates in both Parties in the past. ="? * The really potent figures at the Democratic convention will be the candidates themselves. It is accepted, for instance, that Roosevelt, with 500 or 600 delegates, will be able to have a very loud voice in picking the nomi- nee in case he shouldn't be nominated. And Smith, with perhaps a couple of hundred more, also-will have a say. Speaker Jack Garner with 90 or more delegates and various favorite sons, some of whom can control their state delegations to the finish, also might be influential. The local boss who is expected to have the largest group of delegates under his hand is John F. Curry, lead- er of Tammany Hall. Curry, a white- haired, beyond-middle-age man who plays an excellent game of bridge, will have the 94 votes of New York and thus far he is the only one who knows what he is going to do with them. Curry, who has working arrange- ments with some upstate New York machine leaders, announced confi- dently that the 94 would be voted | under the unit rule. There are Roo- | sevelt delegates in the group, but ap-) parently they won't be able to help | themselves. The unit rule, often im- posed by state conventions, requires delivery of the whole delegation vote as a unit to the designated candidate. The strongest boss in the anti-Roo- sevelt group is Mayor Frank Hague of Jersey City, who will deliver New Jersey's 32 for Smith and connive as he never did before to destroy Roose- velt at the convention. Beside such men as Hague, Na- tional Chairman John J. Raskob and Executive Chairman Shouse will be} of little effect except as they may) use personal influence and Persuasion, | although they also are counted anti- Roosevelt. | | * * % i Hague is a machine® boss in the strictest sense. He also is a Demo-} cratic national committeeman and takes a very active interest in national conventions. He is amiable, affable, well-tailored and two-fisted. They call him the “Prince of Wales of Jer- sey City.” He has been under all kinds of fire, including graft charges, but always emerges victorious and smiling, still able to deliver tremendous majorities in Hudson county. He is more pow- erful than ever, having recently elect- ed a Democratic governor. His ambition is to help elect a Dem- ocratic president, for Republicans still | have all the federal patronage in New Jersey as elsewhere. Mayor Anton J. Cermak of Chicago, the former Bohemian immigrant lad who hates to be called “Tony” by any but his very best friends, probably will control the 58 votes of Illinois. They are pledged to Senator J. Ham Lewis, but not for long. When the state Democratic chair- man recently said most of them were for Roosevelt, Cermak up and told him that he was mistaken—that their second choice was Melvin A. Traylor. Tom Pendergast of Kansas City has developed lately as the undisputed Democratic boss of Missouri and will control 36 delegates which are loosely pledged to ex-Senator Jim Reed. * * OK He is said to be hard-boiled and ex- tremely practical. Some of the Roo- sevelt people think that he will come across for their man, but definite in- formation is lacking. Former Governor James M. Cox probably will direct most of the Ohio delegation. Senator Robinson of Ar- kansas and Governors Byrd of Vir- ginia and Ritchie of Maryland pre- sumably will control their delegations. Joe Guffey of Pittsburgh, whose po- litical influence was supposed to have been slipping, appears to have made good his boast that 66 of Pennsylva- nia’s 76 delegates would be for Roose- velt. Senator Huey Long, undisputed boss of Louisiana, has promised the state’s uninstructed 20 for Roosevelt. The southern leaders, such as the fa- mous Boss Ed Crump of Tennesseee, have generally lined up for the gover- nor. * * * Among the Repubjican leaders you might say that. the boss with the greatest strength was Walter F. Brown of Ohio. Brown, being post- {of the Kansas City convention four Candidates SS ticut still holds iron sway over the Republicans of his state. The most widely known Republican big city boss who still remains in power undoubtedly is William S. Vare of Philadelphia, who was kicked out of the Senate a few years ago because too much money was spent to nomi- nate and elect him. He is the strongest political force | in Pennsylvania, the second largest state, and his declaration on the eve years ago that his delegates would be for Hoover was widely regarded as clinching the president’s nomination. CHILDREN’S PROGRAM HAS MANY FEATURES |Handicraft Projects, Organized Games and Play Planned by Supervisor | | Bismarck children will have plenty to do this summer, it is indicated by the playground program arranged by} Miss Mildred Fried, supervisor. Supervision of children’s activities at Kiwanis Park playground began ‘Wednesday afternoon and will be con- tinued through the summer season, the supervised hours being 1:30 p. m.! to 5:30 p. m., daily except Saturdays and Sundays. Children from six years to 16 years of age are invited to attend the su- Pervised programs. Miss Fried has arranged programs for the younger and older groups. Once each week the children will be taken on hikes and story hours will be weekly features. The afternoon has been divided as follows: 1:30 to 2 p. m.—Free play period. 2 to 3—Handicraft projects. 3 to 4—Organized games (basket- ball, volleyball, horseshoe pitching, re- lays, etc.). 4to 4:30—Stunts, folk dances, etc. 4:30 to 5—Dramatics. 5 to 5:30—Free play period (table games such as dominoes, checkers, puzzles, etc., and use of slides, swings, sandpiles, etc.).° ‘ Building of bird houses by the old- er children and dressing of dolls in foreign costumes by the younger chil- dren will be among the first two pro- jects, Miss Fried said. The older group later on will make an inspection hike to view the birdhouses they have set up while the younger folks will stage a doll show. The park is well equipped with recreation facilities, Miss Fried said. The supervisor urges mothers to send their children to the park each af- ternoon. singing games, Seven Slope Students Receive Honors at U Grand Forks, N.

D., June 8.—(P)— Pledging their full support to four initiated proposals to be voted on at the June 29 primary election, offic- jals, delegates and members of the Northr Dakota Taxpayers association met here Wednesday for: their first | annual meeting. About 1,000 persons were present. Each county tax organization was limited to one accredited delegate, but many others came to attend the meeting. G. F. Lamb of Michigan, president, was in charge of the sessions which opened with accredited delegates and cfficers in attendance. The general session will be held at 1:30 p. m. when officers will be elected. Other officers here include Harri- son Garnett, St. Thomas, vice presi- Gent; and Harold B. Nelson, Rugby, secretary and treasurer. Members of the executive committee here include R. R. Hogue, Linton; P. J. Bottem, Sheyenne; J. W. Evans, Carson, and Andrew Johnston, Watford City. The convention gave its strong support to the four initiated meas- ures at this morning's session. Nelson, secretary, went into a thor- ough support of the measures at the opening session. He said “There is only one measure that is being cri- ticized, that of reducing the assessed valuation from 75 to 50 per cent. Was Low in 1917 “Prior to 1917 the basis of assess- ment was 30 per cent and less. The valuation of all property in the state was $338,647,856, with the total state tax that year $1,671,185.78. In 1919 the legislature increased the valua- tion to 100 per cent which increased the value of property to $1,522,637,- 234, the state tax that year being $3,673,362.22. In 1922, the last year in which the 100 per cent applied, the; total tax was $4,762,268.07, while in sessed valuation to 75 per cent with the total tax that year $4,007,974.90. “The significance is that taxes of the minor municipalities such as counties, cities, villages and towns have followed the rise and the fall of state taxes and that all taxes, both of state and the minor subdivisions, have gone up when yaluations have increased, and gone down when valu- ations have been decreased. “There is a criticism on the va- luation measure on the ground that it will be detrimental to the schools. The taxpayers, both state and coun-! ty, are not seeking to destroy or in- jure the schools or impair their ef- ficiency. Nor will the adoption of its program have that effect ....” “The law authorizes the increase) in levy limit by the vote of the peo- ple. Of the 2,265 school districts in North Dakota only approximately 130 of this number voted to increase the levy of last year, ranging from a fraction of one per cent up to the’ limit of the 50 per cent increase. “The state taxpayers association points out that this authority in the! People to vote the sts. solely ! with the voters residing in a partic- ular district, and that when voted it | applies to all property in the dis- trict.” Play First Games In D-Ball League! Company A and Oscar H. Will and Co., chalked up victories ‘Tucsi night in the first games on the ci commercial D-ball league's official | calendar. : The Soldiers set down the North- western Bell, 7 to 5, while the = | marck Dairy bowed to the Seedsmen | by the same score. The Linemen will go into action against Company A tonight to give the soldiers an opportunity to hold up their end of the schedule. Members} of the team leave Saturday for the national guard encampment at Devils Lake and will be out of action for two weeks. Batteries in last night's game were: Company A, Hedstrom and Ashmore; Northwestern Bell, Dale Brown and Norman Agre; O. H. Will, Hummei and Falconer; and Bismarck Dairy, Neibauer and McCroirie. wo ef Clara Deane,” opening tonight at the Paramount Theatre, “flop” shows on the legitimate stage are not always as bad as they are painted. Miss Gibson began her theatrical life in a succession of “flops.” In fact, she opened and closed in so many shows in Boston without cver reach- ing New York that she used to regard herself as a “stranded citizen” of that town. But, says the young actress, al- though the long series of unsuccessful plays did not bring her work to the attention of the public, she had ex- cellent rolef which gave her invalu- able training. Her parts changed so frequently that she gained, in a short period of time, the same experience ordinarily obtained through years ir stock. One of the most surprising experi- ences of her life, she has said, was when she found hersclf finally in a success — “Jarnegan” with Richard Bennett. Miss Gibson’s. screen career, how- ever, has been the antithesis of her stage experience. Beginning with a small role in “Nothing But The Truth,” she quickly rose to a position ‘lof featured player as a@ result of her performance as the gangster’s “moll” in “The Gang Buster’ with Jack Oakie. Following her work in a diffi- cult role in “The Strange Case cf Clara Deane,” she is slated for star- master general, is boss of the federal pie counter. * * Brown also is a political power in Ohio and one of President Hoover's ablest and closest political advisers. Charles D. Hilles, who managed Taft's 1912 campeign, still is Repub- lican boss in New York. After his opposition to Hoover’s nomination in 1928 he was widely considered to be on the skids. But Hilles is supposed to be a representative of Wall Street in the organization and he remains on top of the heap, apparently as im- portant in Republican councils as ever, , Dave Mulvane, national committee- man from Kansas, is another old-line Yeader who always is a man of influ- ence at Republican meetings.

Fox of Chicago. Fox owns preferred stock and a $2,000 bond. The concern owns and operates Public Utility properties in Iowa, Minnesota, South Dakota and Texas and owns stocks of other corporations in Public Utility -business in Iowa, Illinois, Nebraska, North Carolina, North Dakota, Virginia and West Vir- ginia. The company, the bill states, owns all the funded debt and capital stock of Central West Public Service Com- pany of Nebraska, Central West Pub- lic Service Company of North Dakota, Southeast Public Service Corporation of Virginia; Southeast Public Service Company of West Virginia and owns all the stock of the Iowa-Illinois Tele- phone Company. The bill alleges the company is in- solvent because it is unable to meet current and maturing obligations. In- terest due May 1 on its first lien col- lateral gold bonds and 70-year con- vertible debentures remains unpaid, it was alleged. It is further alleged that cash in bank and on hand and current assets of the company are insufficient to pay debts and obligations; that the com- pany cannot acquire sufficient funds from any source to meet maturing ob- ligations, and that the company's credit is badly impaired by its pend- ing maturities. The bill adds that protective com- mittees for bondholders are about to be formed and that in such event, proper reorganization can only be car- ried out if receivers are appointed. NOTED PHYSICIAN SUCCUMBS IN EAST Man Who Served in Three Wars and Operated on Cleve- land is Dead Philadelphia, June 8. — (P) — Dr. William Keen, who served his coun- try in three wars and humanity in a brilliant half-century career in medi- cine, died at his home Tuesday night at the age of 95. He had been ill for some time. Dr. Keen entered the service first in 1861 as assistant surgeon of the First Regiment, Massachusetts volun- teers. He served in the Spanish- American war and was appointed by President McKinley on a commission to investigate the conflict, but de- clined. His World war service won} him decorations from France and Bel- | gium. It was largely due to his ef- forts that American soldiers were in- noculated with paratyphoid serum. One of the most unusual feats of his career was made public in 1917. nine years after the death of Presi- dent Grover Cleveland. Dr. Keen dis- closed the details of an operation per- formed on the president for the re- moval of a saracoma. The operation. performed on the yacht of Commo- dore E. C. Benedict while it was steaming up the East river, New Yorr, involved the removal of the presi- dent's left jaw and substitution of a rubber jaw. Republican Delegate Will Leave Tonight J. E.
