D., Nov. 2—Attacking the candidacies of Herbert Hoover for president and O. E. Zrickson, Tappen, for senator from the 35th district, comprised of Kidder and Sheridan counties, U. L. Burdick, Fargo, Tues- day pleaded for the election of their opponents. Giving reasons for his support of Roosevelt, Burdick said Hoover had “utterly failed” to redeem any of the Promises made to agriculture in 1928 or “any other promises.” He branded the Hoover administration as a fail- ure and asserted that the hope of the common people lies in electing Roose- velt to the presidency. Branding Erickson’s support of Hoover as a “sell-out,” Burdick ridicul- ed Erickson’s argument that members of the Nonpartisan-Republican organ- ization should support Hoover ip or- der to protect their control of political patronage. Burdick was assistant U. S. district attorney for North Dakota until a few months ago, when he resigned, and could quit, as he did, if they found it necegsary to preserve their self-re- spect. To say that a political organ- ization exists merely for the purpose of distributing patronage is to assert that it has lost all usefulness to the People as a whole, Burdick declared. Burdick said he knew of Erickson’s plan to indorse Hoover before public announcement was made of the fact and spent half an hour pleading with him not to “sell out” the farmers of North Dakota. Turning his guns on Congressman J. H. Sinclair, incumbent, Burdick flayed him for supporting the Haw- ley-Smoot tariff act, which he said is inimical to agriculture, and for his failure to condemn the Hoover administration. He praised William Lemke, the other Republican con- gressional nominee, for his forthright stand on public issues. Burdick, long a member of the Nonpartisan League and himself a candidate for congressional nomina- tion on a “wet” platform at the Re- publican primary in June, predicted that the Nonpartisan League will “speak in no uncertain terms” to those candidates who have main- tained silence on the “Hoover ques- tion” when it next meets in conven- tion, |B. B. Murphy, Bismarck, also} spoke, attacking the doctrine of fear | which he said is being proclaimed by | the Republicans when the Democrats offer the only hope, and condemning Sinclair for “straddling” on the pro-| hibition issue and “riding the fence” on his support of presidential can- | didates. Barber Ordinance | Action Is Appealed| Minot, N. D., Nov. 2.—(?)—An ap- Peal to the district court from a de- cision of Police Magistrate Carl B.

P. Jackson told members of the Bismarck Rotary club Wednesday noon at a get-out-the- vote rally held preparatory to the election next Tuesday. “The stability atid perpetuity of our country depend on an informed and intelligent electorate that is loyal to the country and its institu- tions,” Jackson asserted. “The sacred- ness of the ballot should be taught in every home, school and church in the land and he who esteems it lightly and unworthily is a traitor to the flag and not fit to be called an American citizen.” Jackson said that in 1928 less than 50 per cent of the eligible voters actually cast ballots and said an alarming fact is that many well-edu- cated and intelligent citizens are among those who neglect their right of franchise. The ancient Greeks, he said, deprived the man who did not vote 0 fhis right to do so and he asked. if America should be less, vigilant than they were. The slogan for every American, the speaker said, should be “Go to the polls on November 8 and vote as your conceptions of duty and conscience dictate.” Discusses Newspapers In a vocational talk on the news- paper business, L. F, Bechtold cited Benjamin Franklin as one of the earliest American editors and prob- ably the greatest. “Certainly,” he sald; “none has surpassed him in Srasp of the nation’s néeds and none has left a deeper imprint upon the life of cer nation.” Bechtdd reviewed the advance in mechanical facilities for producing newspapers and improvements in the systems for obtaining and distributing news. ‘The greatest single advance in news transmission, he said, was the tele- graph which still is used for that pur- Pose, although the old-time “brass- Pounder” has been supplanted -by a modern machine which typewrites by means of electrical impulses sent over wires hundreds of miles long. Such ® machine, he said, supplies the Bis- marck Tribune with its news from points outside its immediate vicinity. Although it is essentially a business, the speaker pointed out, the newspa- per is more than that because it is an ideal medium for exchanging infor- mation and ideas. The standards of the newspaper profession have ad- vanced he said and one no longer hears the expression “you can't be- Neve what you read in the newspa- pers.” Instead, he said, we have Will Rogers remarking “All I know is what I see in the newspapers.” The guarantee of a free press, con- tained in the constitution, is the char- ter of the American newspaper and its most precious heritage, Bechtold said, and because it depends upon public respect for its own welfare, the newspaper has learned to fight the battle of the public interest. Reviewing the conduct of Ameri- can newspapers in current circum- stances, the speaker said that every- where, as the economic crisis became more apparent, newspapers took the Jead in an effort to widen employ- ment, reduce public expenditures and “avoid or minimize the tragic conse- quences which bore down so heavily Never, he said, has the faith of the founders of this nation been more gloriously justified than during the last three trying years, Is Good Business J. J. Garrity, as counsel for W. D. Elkins, defendant in the action brought in police court, and who sub- jMmitted the demurrer which was sus- tained. by the police magistrate, has! accepted service of the appeal papers. ; The section of the ordinance held invalid prescribed among other things that barber shops should close at 6:12 ;P. m. on all days except Saturday and days preceding certain holidays. Elkins was charged with violation cf this section of the ordinance. Girl Scout Leaders | To Study Handicraft! Classes in handicraft for Girt Scout leaders have been started un- der the direction of Miss Esther Max- well of the Will junior high school. it was announced at a meeting of the Bismarck Girl Scout council Tuesday at the World War Memorial building. A small room at the Masonic tem- ple has been equipped for teaching handicraft while another larger room has been placed at the disposal of the Girl Scouts and regular meetings will be held there instead of in the World War Memorial building. Publicity plans were outlined by Mrs. Alex Rosen, chairman, who has appointed Miss Rita Murphy to col- lect local items; Mrs. N. O.

FLOG FLORIDA FARMER . Sarasota, Fla., Nov. 2.—()}—Mob- sters invaded this community Tues- day night, abducted a farmer and flogged him with a rubber hose. Charles Rawls said the gang dragged him out of the house in his night clothes, beat him severely with the hose and ended up by pounding him severely with a pistol butt. This has been good business for the newspapers, Betchtold asserted, for in no other profession does the | Rotary slogan of “He profits most who serves best” hold so true. For that reason, he said, newspaper cir- culations have held up remarkably well in the face of currént conditions, being reduced only 2.5 per cerit from the peak of 1929, Outlining the standards of honest newspaperdom, Bechtold said the publisher must have the “ability to make decisions and the courage to stand behind them, for no one loves & moral imbecile or a coward. He must keep in mind that he, after all, is not important but that the people —the plain, common people who work with us and for us—are all-im- portant. They must have knowledge if they are to meet the problems fac- ing them.” Dr. H. A. Brandes presided at the meeting, held at the Grand Pacific hotel. Guests included D. C. Scot- horn, Mandan; E, R. Monson, Bis- marck; Hal Dobler, Warren, Ill., for- merly of Bismarck; Julius Skaug, Mobridge, 8. D., and Axel Soder, Wing. Pearl Nelson Wins Morton Play Award New Salem, N.

WANTS DRY LAW ENFORCED Bismarck, N. D,, Oct. 29, 1932. Editor, Tribune: That the 18th amendment cannot be enforced has been repeated so often both by public speakers and the press that it may be a great per- centage of the people believe it. For this reason I want to call attention to an article written by Theodore Roosevelt in 1895. We honor Roose- velt and particularly in this state. The character of the man and the principles he stood for were Ameri- can ideals. T shall not attempt to quote him in full. But this article is the best il- lustration of what can be done with What sometimes is termed an unpop- ular law of anything I have read or heard. Mr. Roosevelt said: “If there is one plain duty for the average citi- zen, it is to obey the law; and if there is one paramount duty for public of- ficials it is to enforce the law. “The law of the state of New York is that all liquor saloons shall be Closed on Sunday. This applies as much to New York city as to any part of the state. “In New York city there is, how- ever, a large per cent of people of foreign birth and others who wish to drink lquor on Sundays. Many of these are entirely honest and respect- able people, who only wish to have what their forefathers have had for generations in the old world. Many, however are lawless and disorderly; and the worst type of native American is invariably the drinking man who frequents saloons. Over and against these men there is a large body of People fully in sympathy \ with the, general Ametican sentiment of the} average American country district, which is against opening the saloons on Sunday. “Those who believe in Sunday op- ening always insist that there is a great majority of the people of New York city on their side. (Note: This is what they tell us is the reason the 18th Amendment can- not be enforced because the majority jof the people are against it. We shall see.) “One of the commonplaces of our latter day politics has been this in- cessant reiteration that no severe ex- cise law ‘unpopular) could be en- forced in New York city. “When the present board of police commissioners ‘approached the subject we were met with this statement on every hand. It was made sometimes as a warning, sometimes as a threat, and sometimes with a note of despair; but it was alwdjs made. We were told, by the most powerful city offi- ;cials that the effort had been made again and again but had failed and that any such effort always must fail. “However, after thinking the mat- ter over, we came to the conclusion, that as honest officials we had no al- ternative other than to try and en- force the law. (And this is how they or he did it. A splendid Icsson for city, county, and State officials today.) “We summoned the police captains before us and informed them that the law must be carried out rigidly. It took us one or two Sundays before we could make the force understand that they had to do their duty. For years and years the entire body of police had been accustomed to see the pow- erful men who stood high in the do- minant political party do whatever they wished unmolested. For years every policeman’s well-being had de- pended upon the hold he had over influential politicians. With a force trained under such conditions it need- eda violent wrench to sever them from their past habits. “They could not at first bring them- selves to interfere with the rich liquor dealers, aldermen or ex-aldermen, whom they had always regarded as bosses of their respective wards. “The honest members of the force, however, speedily saw the sincerity of the commission and turned in with hearty zeal to execute its wishes, feel- ing much relieved themselves that at last an effort for fair play and impartiality had been made. The rest of the force was brought to or- der by rough measures. Captains were transferred and rebuked or or- dered for trial; patrolmen were fined and dismissed. When, in a given district, we found that certain liquor- dealers persistently kept open, the jcaptain was told that he would be put on trial and dismissed if they were not forthwith shut up. Two or three weeks of this sufficed. By that time the saloons were practically closed and, they were not again op- ened. “The basest portion of the New York press, including some of the daily papers of large circulation, went into a perfect agony of rage over what we did. Indeed, so shameful was their conduct as to give rise to the belief that not a few of them were bribed by some of the brewers or liquor-dealers; for we had attack- ed the wealthiest organizations in New York city. It was, of course, impossible to show whether these suspicions were true and the conduct of these newspapers due to corrup- tion, or whether they were merely actuated by a shameless desire to pander to the passions and appetites of the worst class of our citizens. In any event their attitude was very dis- creditable to the profession of which they formed a part and to the people upon whose credulity they traded. “The politicians were equally nerv- ous over our action. They were haunt- ed by that nightmare of the ordinary politician, the fear of losing votes, and wefe pitifully anxious for the adoption of any colorless course which would not offend anybody but which, conse- quently, would not accomplish any- tl aving taken our stand, however, 00 LATE TO CLASSIFY HARRINGTON'S SUPERCULINE live steam pérmanent, no electricity, natural waves, real comfort, done in two hours, $5.00.

We were executive officers. Our duty was to enforce the law and we en- forced it. “More important than even the question of what a law is, is the ques- tion of the honest enforcement of the law. A community has no right to call itself civilized until it can call itself law-abiding. “The law breaker is the foe of can government, and the worst of all Public servants is the official who connives at law-breaking.” So far I have quoted the late Theo- dore Roosevelt. The situation in New York city as! explained by Mr. Roosevelt finds its duplicate in the majority of our towns and cities and not that alone it finds its duplicate in the country as a whole. “The Eighteenth Amendment can- not be enforced in Chicago.” So says Franklin D. Roosevelt. He simply shows that he is not of the calibre of Theodore Roosevelt. If a law unpopular could be enforced in New York city there is no valid rea- son why it cannot be enforced in Chi- cago or any other place. The whole trouble with the enforcement of this law lies with the public officials city, county, state, nation. If they lost their job when not do- ing their duty there would be no trou- ble about law enforcement. Their promises before election (many of them) are just so much hot air, © Will Rogers, humorously said: “I belong to a party making no promises until elected.” He did not tell us what party that was. | I am not so concerned in regards as to what party comes into power but let me say this, if the Democratic party is sincere in its pretense of shifting the heavy tax burden from the poor to the more fortunate who can better afford to pay them, that sincerity will be severely questioned; by every thinking person, in the pur- | pose of that party to shift the tax burden by taxing liquor in any form. For every dollar collected in taxes on liquor ten dollars worth of liquor must be consumed. Who is to con-/ sume it? Is it the 50 or more million- | aires and multimillionaires at the head of the A. A. P. A.? They know very well that if the sale of beer and other liquors is legalized they will profit immensely by it. Irenee du Pont has declared that if beer can be restored one of his com- panies will save more than “ten mil- lion dollars annually in corporation taxes.” Do we see why they are so anxious for repeal of the Eighteenth Amendment? Sore one has said “The American people like to be humbugged.” A word to the wise is sufficient. I sincerély hope that the majority of the people of North Dakota are not among those who like to be humbugged and that before we go to the polls on Nov. 8th we will do some sober thinking.
