ESTABLISHED 1873 ISMARCK, NORTH DAKOTA, WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 19, 1932 PRICE FIVE CENTS Sleet Ham Nye Attacks Leadershi REVIEWS NEED FOR DBPINITE ACTION IN FARM RELIEF FIGHT Scores Eastern Party Leaders For Obstructionist Tactics in Congress SAYS BANKERS SUBSIDIZED Praisés Langer and Others on G. 0. P. State Ticket, De- nies Political Rift A sweeping indictment of party leadership in congress was made by Senator Gerald P, Nye in @ campaign address in Bismarck Tuesday night. Approximately 300 persons were on hand to hear Senator Nye, Mayor A. T, Lynner of Fargo and Ole H. Olson| of New Rockford, candidate for lieu- tenant governor, urge support of the nominees on the Republican state ticket. Senator Nye scored eastern party leaders for.obstructionist tactics in) shelving farm relief legislation and flayed large banking interests for subsidizing a clique in which he said congress was responsible for legisla- tion favorable to big business and in- imical to the best interests of agricul- ture. A reduction in the cost of state gov- ernment will be brought about by the election of William Langer, Republi- can candidate for governor, and a sympathetic legislature, the senator said. He branded as false rumors that he and Langer were at political logger-heads and paid tribute to the gubernatorial nominee in his proposed efforts to economize in operating the state government. Seated on the platform with the speakers were Alfred S. Dale, Repub- lican candidate for treasurer, who! presided; Mrs, Berta E. Baker, nom- imee for state auditor; Robert Byrne, candidate for reelection as secretary of state; and S. 8. McDonald, candi« cate for the state senate from Bur- leigh county. While Nye made no direct reference to the Hoover administration, he charged that the government “has been insanely trying to effect eco- nomic recovery by helping to bolster ‘up business, and made numerous ref- erences to the failure of the nation’s leadership which might easily have ‘been interpreted as thrusts at the president. Favors Sinclair-Lemke He paid tribute to Congressman J. H. Sinclair and William Lemke, can- Gidates for congress, declaring that “their kind in congress are increasing in number, and when we have more men like Sinclair and Lemke in the national legislature we will get the kind of government that will con- tribute directly to the well being of the farmer and the people as a whole instead of the giant corporations which have been hogging such help es the government could give.” Senator George H.

The meeting is scheduled to begin ‘at 8:15 p. m., and the speech of H. C. DePuy, Democratic gubernatorial candidate, will begin at 9. It will be roadcast. “ ‘The original plan was for DePuy to speak at 8:30 but it was decided to delay it until 9 o'clock in order not to interfere with the radio broadcast of Governor Franklin D. Roosevelt, presidential candidate, at Pittsburg, Pa, Local Democratic leaders said they would have a loud-speaker on the platform to bring in the Roosevelt speech for the benefit of the audience at the auditorium. ‘DePuy indicated that he would deal, fn his address here, largely with the tax situation and means of reducing State expenses.

EXPECT ROOSEVELT TO DELIVER BONUS ADDRESS TONIGHT Pittsburgh Will Hear Important Message, According to Reliable Sources Roosevelt Special En Route to Pittsburgh, Oct. 19.—(#)—Into the south and midwest Governor Frank- lin D. Roosevelt carried his campaign for the presidency Wednesday. From a source close to the Demo- cratic nominee came unofficial in- formation the bonus speech would be delivered Wednesday night in Pitts- burgh. The governor will continue his westward journey at 11:30 Wednes- day night with the Thursday stop at Indianapolis. Tuesday, the first of Roosevelt's} eight-day trip, he stopped twice in his home city, Rochester, to speak for his friend, Lieutenant Governor Herbert H. Lehman, Democratic can- didate for governor of New York. To an enthusiastic Buffalo crowd he said he was not going to do any campaigning in his behalf in New York “for the very good reason that you people know me.” ‘You Know Good in Me’ “You know whatever there is good in me and you know my faults,” he continued. “That being so, I am go- ing to leave it to your good judgment as to whether I will carry the state again Nov. 8 by 725,000.” Roosevelt carried the state two years ago by the record plurality of 000. At both Rochester and Buffalo, Roosevelt praised the governorship of Alfred E, Smith. At Rochester he declared: “Governor Smith had to build up the labor laws, he had to practically rebuild the highways, he had to strengthen social legislation. He had to rebuild the prisons. They were prisoners to be sure, but human be- ings nevertheless and in many cases the forgotten man.” , In 1911, he said at Buffalo, there were young men in the legislature “like Jim Foley, Bob Wagner, Al Smith and others who espoused progressive legislation and fixed the “sound policy which has been that of the Democratic party in the state ever since.” “We were called Communists, rad- icals in those days,” he declared at Rochester, “but who were those laws —the workmen’s compensation and such—intended to help? The for- gotten man and the forgotten wo- men.” ‘ Thanks to Al Smith Roosevelt said Former Governor Smith “is to be thanked that the St. Lawrence power site is not now in (Continued on Page Soven) HELEN KELLER WINS PRIZE New York, Oct. 19—(?)—Miss Helen Fargo, N. D., Oct. 19.—()—Fargo’s Grand theacer, destroyed by fire Fri- day, is to be replaced by a new show » it is announced. It is not ly the building will be a vaude- ville house but may have facilities for stage performances. Three thea- Hy Clowns and the breath-taking thrill- lers of the “big-top” circus still hold an attraction for Bismarck residents. This was demonstrated anew Tues- day night when more than 1,500 braved the weather to attend the big Elks charity circus in the World War Memorial building. With the skill of true showmen, the Elks have duplicated the circus atmosphere, the great building lend- ing itself admirably to the trapeze and other acts which add so much to the glamour of the old-time cir- cus. Only the sight of canvas over- head is needed to complete the illu- sion of an out-door entertainment. Even the well-known circus midway with the lights, the barkers and the extra attractions are in evidence. The program, more than two hours long and packed with surprises and entertainment, is divided into two parts, with an intermission interven- ing. And following the show the seats are removed, the orchestra goes into action and dancing concludes the evening. This is the schedule for every night of the week-long attraction, which is one of the greatest shows of its kind ever to appear here, not barring the famous tented attractions which oc- casionally have stopped in Bismarck. What one sees at a circus, of course, depends upon what interests him, for one can see nearly anything, but re- gardless of tastes there is something to interest and amuse everyone. Slack and tight-wire walking, where grace- ful ladies with gaudy umbrellas in hand pay homage to terpsichore; the aerial acts, where skill, precision and agility mean the difference between success and serious accident or death; tumbling acts and clowns, reminiscent of the old days but with new stunts, all are there to amuse group-ups and children alike. And if no circus is complete with- out peanuts and the rest of an ancient line of refreshments, why those are there too. The quality of the performance is easily explained. Tented circuses op- erate only in the summer. In past years’ many performers have gone in- to vaudeville during the winter months while others “took it easy.” For this’reason it was possible for the management of the Elks circus to re- cruit an array of star performers who would not otherwise be available. Only top-notchers are on the program here. Supreme’ among aerial acts is that of the Flying Kitchens (it’s a name, not a place) and the blood of the spectators runs cold at their daring feats. Others are the Letourneau’s with a sensational act; Gus and Joe, comedy tumblers, and the McMahon and Wheel troupe on the tight wire. Profits from the circus go to the Elks charity fund which has helped many needy families in the past. The circus will show again tonight, and Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Monday nights, with free dancing af- ter each performance. The doors open at 7 p. m., and the show gets under way at 8. Trio Found Guilty In Ellendale Trial Ellendale, N. D., Oct. 19.—(®)—At 9:25 p. m. Tuesday the jury in the Bossert robbery trial brought in a verdist of guilty of grand larceny against the three defendants. Sen- tence was to be passed Wednesday. Henry and Fred Bossert and their brother-in-law, John Ellingson, were the defendants. The jury received the case at 3 p. m. Tuesday following final argu- ments for the state by George Thorpe of Fargo and State's Attorney C. A. Whipple. F. J. Graham of Ellendale made the final pleas for the defend- ants. The defendants’ are charged with robbing a Merricourt store about two years ago. They were convicted at a previous trial but were granted a new trial by the state supreme court. Sheriff Disperses Minnesota Pickets St. Paul, Oct. 19—(P)—A surprise sortie by 40 special deputy sheriffs seattered about 50 farm pickets be- tween Anoka and Elk River Wednes- day. After clearing blockaded highways, Sheriff Oscar Olson’s party proceed- ed to Daytonsport, the site of the main picket station, where the rest of the highway guards. were ordered to move on. The sheriff and deputies swarmed over the picket camp, rapping hoods and fenders of parked cars and shouting for the men to disband. ‘Taken by surprise, and while many of them slept, the pickets slowly dis- persed, showing no resistance.

SECRETARY STIMSON SCORES ROOSEVELT IN GOTHAM SPEECH Says New York Governor’s Statement About ‘Forgot- ten Man’ Damaging New York, Oct. 19.—(?)—Secretary of State Henry L. Stimson, urging re- election of President Hoover, says that his program to save our “tottering in- stitutions” from the “terrjble financiai panic” last winter was without pre- cedent in “its comprehensiveness, courage and originality.” “With the adoption of these meas- ures, the panic ceased,” the secretary isaid Tuesday night in sn address at the National Republican club. Attacking Governor Roosevelt, he said when the hope of recovery was hanging in the balance “Mr. Roose- velt made an attack upon thi8 benefi- cent process which had just begun.” “He made a speech on the ‘Forgot- ten Man’ in which he asserted that the funds which the Reconstruction Finance Corporation were distribut- ing were not reaching the small peo- ple and the small banks and institu- tions of the country but were being put solely at the disposition of the big banks, the railroads and the big cor- Porations.” Stimson said this “incredibly reck- less” statement was a “complete mis- statement of facts” and that Roose- velt has since, in part, retracted it. He said that by this speech Roose- velt “not only dealt a blow at our re~ covery, but he had shown that he could seek to inflame class prejudices at the very time when other men, re- gardless of party, were seeking to serve the nation.” He challenged Roosevelt and Speaker John N. Garner to state their stand on the soldiers’ bonus. If cash payment were made, he said “it would at once utterly destroy the balanc: of the budget which we labored so hard last winter to establish.” Drops Dead While to her death Tuesday| Kahn Cranking His Auto Larimore, N. D., Oct. 19—()—| Frank Sinal, about 65 years old, be- leved to be from Park Rapids, Minn., dropped dead on a detour of U. 8. Highway No. 2 between McCgnna and Niagara Tuesday, according to Grand Forks officials who investi- gated the case. Death was due to a heart attack caused by over-exertion when Sinal attempted to crank his car after it had stalled, physicians who examined the body sald. ‘The man’s pockets contained a re- ceipt indicating he had subscribed to the Hubbard County Journal at Park Rapids Monday and his effects also included $106.48 in cash and a cer- tificate of deposit for $910 on the Minn, , bank at Dorset, SEEKS LOST ARTICLES the shock of having her fiance dis- appear, mid-way in their elopment, but hadn’t forgiven him for taking $200 worth of clothes and her sor- ority ring with him.

C., Oct. 19.—(>) —Upon the shoulders of solicitor Car- lisle Higgins Wednesday rested the responsibility of whether Libby Hol- man Reynolds, Broadway singer, and Albert Walker shall be tried for the | murder of Libby's young millionaire | husband, Smith Reynolds. Higgins admitted he was consider- ing the advisibility of not trying the case after receiving a letter informing him the Reynolds family, which amassed a fortune in tobacco, does not want the case to go to trial. “The evidence fails to prove con- clusively that Smith was murdered,” W. N. Reynolds, uncle and guardian of Smith, said in the letter. “All of us would be quite happy,” he con- tinued, “if it should be your decision to drop the case.” Twenty-year-old Smith was fatally wounded by a pistol at the family estate here early the morning of July 6 after a party. Several weeks later Mrs, Reynolds, his bride of a few months, and Walker, 19, his life-long chum, were indicted for his murder. Both are at liberty under $25,000 bond. No date for their trial has been set, partially because the young widow, who gained fame on Broadway as a blues singer, is an expectant mother. Higgins emphasized he would make his own decision on the matter, “re- gardless of who wants this or that done. That's my responsibility and I intend to follow it,” he said. ‘The letter of the elder Reynolds was written after attorneys of the family advised them not to join in prosecu- tion of the case. RHARDMIN SAYS DENOGRATS SCARED Says Huey Long Probably Sent) Out Here Where He Can Do ‘Least Harm’ Jamestown, N. D., Oct. 19—(P)— The advent of Huey Long into North Dakota indicates “that the Demo- cratic friends are at last scared,” Seth Richardson, assistant United States attorney general and formerly of Fargo, said Tuesday night in a speech here. “Senator Long,” he declared, “will show the people of North Dakota how things are done in Louisiana, and our people will be able to judge the advisability of entrusting our fu- ture program to his recommenda-/ tions. “Possibly in North Dakota he may) find the support and approval which up to date he has failed to get from his fellow Democratic senators. One wonders whether he wanted to come or, on the other hand, was ‘Garner- ized’ and sent out where he could do the least harm.” Harking to the criticisms of the administration for its policies when the market crash came, Richardson | asked: “What Democratic voice was raised when the crash approached in 1929? Where was Roosevelt then?” At the same time he gave certain; Democratic individuals credit for the support they had provided for the president's recovery program. Hoover's original plan provided for real economy in federal affairs, said) Richardson, but he challenged the| Democrats to show the Democratic house has made a real effort to re- duce expenditures. While they preached economy, he said, they were attempting to pass sppropedetions for billions. pesosiations sor ee. lg | Pupils at Least | Show Originality ae Hastings, Neb., Oct. pm It's hard for Hastings public school teachers to understand that in this midwestern cattle country there is at least one per- son who doesn’t know what is a sirloin.

D., Oct. 19.—(#)—The Communist party of North Dakota, from its campaign headquarters here, | announced its state program with| which the party aims “to arouse and| organize the suffering masses,” and by mass power to force the granting of immediate relief at the expense of the capitalists.” The Communists have filed for the Nov. 8 general election presidential electors supporting William Z. Fos- ter and James W. Ford for president and vice president, respectively; can- didates for the U. S. senate, congress, governor, lieutenant governor, sec=| retary of state, and attorney general, | and legislative tickets for Williams, Mountrail, and Ward counties. In addition they have candidates for; sheriff in Mountrail and Burke coun- ties. On the state ballot, the Commun- ists candidates will be designated as “Communist Party-Workers Farmers government.” List Several Demands In their program, the Communists list the following demands: (1) That the state mill furnish flour free of charge to destitute) farmers and unemployed workers in| the state and that flour manufac- tured by the mill for general sale be sold at a price proportionate to the market price of wheat. (2) That funds of the Bank of North Dakota be used for emergency) relief for bankrupt farmers and that land taken over by the Bank of North Dakota through foreclosure be immediately given back to the orig- inal owners free from all past en- cumbrances. (3) Appropriation by the state of $5,000,000 for immediate relief of un- employed workers and destitute farmers, the money to be raised by special taxes on railroads, utility companies, chain stores, old-line ele- vators, corporations and all incomes over $2,500. (4) The repeal of all vagrancy, garnishment and “other laws dis- criminating against workers and farmers.” (5) That free medical and dental service be furnished by the state and employers to all workers and desti- tute farmers.

Plane Forced Down There were no airmail planes at the local station. The west-bound plane was forced down at Cleveland, N. D.. Tuesday by bad weather, presumably fog, although the pilot did not men- tion the exact cause. The plane which flew to Fargo from here Tues- day also failed to get back. Since it lacked information from other points the local weather bureau was unable to make accurate fore- casts of weather conditions here or to ascertain what conditions were else- where. From Tuesday's weather map, how- ever, Observer O. W. Roberts ex- pressed the view that rain, sleet or snow was general over the Middlewest and said heavy precipitation probably had occurred in South Dakota, Ne- braska and Iowa. A low-pressure area was centered over Wyoming Tuesday and by Wed- nesday probably had moved into South Dakota and Nebraska, Roberts said. The intensity of the storm, which raged all night, was neasured by the force of the wind, which came in gusts averaging about 30 miles an hour, Precipitation here at 9 a. m., Wed- nesday totaled 1.32 inches, the heav- jest rain in many months. Other Damage Re} Some camage was reported to trees in the city, limbs being broken by the weight of the sleet and in some cases heavily-laden trees being broken off by the force of the wind. Telephone company records showed j that numerous poles were down in the Devils Lake and Church's Ferry area late Tuesday as the storm struck that cistrict, which also appeared to be without communication facilities Wednesday. Minot was isolated early Wednesday morning and Devils Lake was cut off all day. Sensing the approach of difficulty, the telephone company rushed @ crew of men to Steele Tuesday night and they were working out of that point Wednesday, attempting to locate and repair the breaks in the wires. Information available here was that few poles were down m this area but that the high wind had snapped the ice-encrusted wires in many places. The first wire trouble was reported from the west at 10:35 p. m., Tuesday. and from that time on circuits kept going out of commission until none was left. Trouble Is General Before the wires went down re- ports indicated that trouble was gen- eral throughout the central part of the state. Three inches of snow fell at Minot Tuesday and power and ecmmunication lines were damaged. Fessenden, Carrington and Harvey also reported difficulty with many trees down because of the wind and sleet. Power lines into Fessenden were out of commission and candle- light was used there Tuesday night.
