MARKS DECISION ON MARTIN RESOLUTION ‘Treason and Sedition’ Men- tidned in Discussion of Proposal to ‘Secede’ Reminiscent of Civil war “secession” days, the North Dakota state senate late Tuesday plunged into turbulent debate with the words “treason and sedition” hurled across the assembly floor before a resolution “recommend. ing” that 39 states secede from the union was ordered printed in the Journal of the day's activities, Previously, the senate defeated a motion to strike out a reference that the seceding states retain “the Star Spangled Banner and leave them (the remaining nine eastern states) the stripes which they so richly de- serve.” Introduced Monday by Sen. W. E. Martin, picturesque pioneer of Man- dan, the resolution’ came up Tuesday st & motion to print it in the jour- Immediately after a heated debate on a proposal to investigate the com- mission constructing the new North Dakota capitol building, Sen. D. H. Hamilton, McHenry county, veteran Nonpartisan League leader, arose to say, “Mr. President, I renew my mo- tion to print the resolution in the journal.” Senators rose to their feet quickly in defense and in opposition to the Proposal. Throughout the debate it was emphasized that the merits of the proposal were not up for discus- sion, but ft was merely a question of the right of a member to publish a resolvtion in the journal. For Publication Only In the roll call numerous members who voted in favor of publication ex- lained their vote was not to be con- strued as favoring the contents of the proposal. . Threats were made by -proponents of the motion that if they were de- feated, the resolution would be brought up as “a bill for an act” to secede, which would automatically bring about its publication, In its Present form the resolution “recom- mends” secession. Sen. A. F. Bonzer, Jr. Richland county, called attention to Martin's 24 years in the legislature, declaring he “has traveled the trails with Theo- ber of the constitutional convention of the state of North Dakota.” “I believe he should have the privi- lege of having the resolution printed,” Bonzer said. “This is a message to the east, a message to Sen. Moses. Even King George of England has heard this message. It is a message to the east that North Dakota be recognized and have a place in the union. The sons of wild jackasses have gone without feed too long.” Sen. J. P. Cain, Dickinson, jumped to his fect to ask that the resolution be read again before @ vote on its Publication was taken. After Sen. Hamilton's effort to have him ruled out of order failed, Sen. Cain declared that “Theodore epost never advocated treason or Sedition.” Senators and the audience of sev- eral hundred persons who filled every available space in the World War Me- morial building where the senate is meeting as a result of the destruction ot the capitol by fire two years ago, applauded the reading of the resolu- tion. Would Save the Flag Sen. Cain again moved to strike the flag. “I can't believe,” he said, “the mem- say to the patriotic citizens of North Dakota and the nation that they will place in the records a resolution that, borders on treason and sedition. It is not proper to print in the Journal a resolution containing this language. I can not conceive any intelligent body giving to the world such a resolution.” A round of applause swept the as- sembly. Sen. J. E. Eastgate of Grand Forks said that “I never realized before what the Savior meant when he said ‘forgive them for they know not what they do.” Vigorous denunciation of the reso- lution was made by Sen. W. D. of LaMoure county who asked the from the resolution the reference to)‘ San Francisco, Jan. 18—(?)—A hungry private in the army of un- employed found a way to keep on eating last March and 160,000 needy persons in Los Angeles county now are sharing the fruits of his idea. This jobless man—his name Yong since forgotten—found his family and himself facing want. The hunt for a wage-paying job seemed futile. So he went direct to the source of food supply. ‘He went to a farmer and offered to work without a money wage. He weuld take his pay in vegetables. At the end of his first day's work he took home a sack of foodstuffs so large that he shared his sur- Plus with a needy neighbor. Unwittingly he had pioneered in the development of a barter system for Los Angeles county. Today the county has 83 organ- ized cooperative units, listing the names of 40,000 heads of families.
