At the request of Usher L. Burdick, president of the North Dakota unit of the Farmers’ National Holiday as- sociation, the farmers began with- holding from markets all farm prod- ucts except perishables and will con- tinue the strike indefinitely. Picketing of the highways is not contemplated in this state, unless it is found that the voluntary strike is not effective, Mrs. Chris W. Linnertz, Minot, secretary of the state strike unit, said. Should picketing be resorted to, Mrs. Linnertz said. violence will not be tolerated but persuasive methods will be used. Potato Growers Aroused At Hoople Monday night, 150 po- tato growers and shippers, represent- ing 15 towns in the northern part of the Red River Valley, decided to sus- pend all shipments of potatoes until such time as a minimum price of 40 cents, F. O. B., for hundredweigh: sacks of stock graded U. S. No. 1 can be obtained. The prevailing price is approxi- mately 25 cents per hundredweight, a scale which does not permit harvest- ing of the 1932 crop except at a loss! to the grower. It was recommended that other potato growing sections of the valley also hold back their shipments. Emphasized at the session was the fact that this section of the state, known as the far north potato grow- ing region, is noted for its exception- ally high grade stock. The meeting was sponsored by the Northeast Breeders’ association and} the growers and shippers themselves. | Andrew Robbie of Cavalier acted as chairman. ‘Present wee potato men from Hoople, Grafton, St. Thomas, Cava- ier, Edinburg, Park River, Fordville, Minto, Walhalla, Backoo, Union, Ash, Adams, Nash, Auburn and Crys- ‘al. . President Burdick advised the Holi- day association to be lenient in cases where demands are made upon mem- bers for food for the hungry and sick. Organizing Other Counties Work is being pushed as rapidly as possible in the unorganized areas, Burdick said. “Organization work should be so complete and thorough as to include all farmers,” Burdick stated. “We already have the sympathetic sup- port of the businessmen generally and our drive should be so free from criticism as to warrant the continued support of all classes. “No one can question our right to refuse to sell our products on a pau- pers’ market. No one can criticize us for cooperating with other states in the desperate fight farmers are making there to’ save their homes. “Any farmer who will sell his prod- ucts on a market that means his own ruin and refuses to stand loyally by his brother farmers in this drive for the protection of all,.should be talk- ed to by his neighbors for his own ood. . “You are wholly within your legal and moral rights to refuse to sell your products. If we keep this at- titude—and refrain from acts of violence—our success is assured,” Burdick said in concluding the call. Picketing in Minnesota Meanwhle, the picketing method of enforcing a holiday moved northward from Iowa into Minnesota, with 400 Nobles county farmers patrolling highways in the vicinity of Worth- ington.

At that time, he said, he had the gems with him in a case which he kept in the breast pocket of his coat After going to a show at a local theater he returned to his room at | the hotel, according to the story told | to local police, and placed the jewel ease in his trunk which had been shipped here from Fargo while he | visited jewelry stores in Devils Lake !and Minot. |" Shortly before 10 p. m.. he said, he i went to the hotel lobby and pur- chased a detective magazine, return- ing to his room shortly after 10 to find that his trunk was opened and its contents strewn about the room. The gem case was gone and his brief | case had been cut open with a sharp instrument. \ Find Iron Rod in Room An iron rod was found in the roem ‘and some damage had been done tc \the lock of the door. Barnett could |not account for the presence of the ; bar but examination showed, Police Chief Chris J. Martineson said, that all the fingerprints on it were his own. Gunder Osjord of the state bureau of criminal attention was called to jaid local police and photographs of all available fingerprints were taken by Andrew Risem, local photographer. Police said they were puzzled by the fact that Barnett’'s fingerprints were the only ones found by them on either the door or any object in the room. C. S. Hassler, president of the Western Publishing Co., Waterloo, {Ia.. was in a room across the hotel | hallway from that occupied by Bar- nett. He said he heard nothing un- | til Barnett raised an uproar that he had been robbed and began to shout for the police. He did not leave his room immediately, he said, waiting until hotel officials had been called before he ventured on the scene. Barnett said he was in the habit of keeping the gems on his Person or in his trunk and that he was con- fident no one trailed him here from Minot, Police were continuing their in- vestigation Tuesday. The fact that the key worked in the lock without difficulty, although a piece of metal had been torn from it, apparently by some one wielding the iron har, add- a the mystery of the case, they said.
