Hugh 8. Johnson, NRA chief, point- ed his aides for the big drive—the| Nnouse-to-house, store-to-store canvass | that starts next Monday with the ob-) jective of placing a blue eagle in} every window to insure victory in President Roosevelt's reemployment campaign. Johnson has tentatively fixed mid- November, or the end of the year at the latest, to retire from the post he holds. Then he expects his emergency work to be finished. A permanent administrator will carry on in John- ‘son's place. As soon as President Roosevelt ap- proved codes for the basic steel and oll industries late Saturday night, Johnson and his aides turned immed- iately to coal, a stumbling block for weeks, fe When a committee of 15 coal ope- rators was unable to agree again Sun- day, Johnson started writing his own 10 place before them Monday. Expect Motor Agreement Conferences are to be held this day, with officials of the automobile industry. Indications were that the open shop and maximum hour is- sues raised by the automobile code presented last week will be satisfac- torily and speedily settled. Enrollment of steel and oil .under the NRA was regarded by Johnson as the crux of his task to get the major industries signed up under hour- shortening, wage-increasing agree- ments. With that done he announced vlans for launching the campaign patterned after the Liberty Loan Grives, to take the blue eagle into every store and home. National figures, including Alfred E. Smith, John D. Rockefeller, Jr., and Speaker Henry T.: Rainey, will take part. -One million, five hundred thou- sand volunteer workers already have keen organized for this drive, as well as to check up on employers and un- ancrease wages and add new help. Codes for 14 industries have been! approved, including four of the major industries, cotton textiles, lumber, oil, and steel. In addition more than 100 ments, 17 approved Sunday. Within the next 10 days, permanent codes will be held.

Murphy, American wheat delegate, said Monday that even if no agree- ment is reached at the international wheat conference which got under way Monday the United States will not resort to dumping to get rid of its surplus. Murphy, _ Minneapolis newspaper publisher, declared the United States would try to,maintain the wheat price at @ reasonable level in the event the nations represented at the conference failed to get together on a program. America would consider means of getting rid of the surplus, he eyplain- ed, but there was no idea of upset- ting the market by dumping. After appointing two committees the conference adjourned until Wed- nesday. At Monday's meeting the chief ex- porting countries submitted a draft of an agreement to the importers. The draft provided: 1. That importers would not- do anything to increase domestic produc- tion. 2. That they would do everything possible to increase consumption. 3.. That substantial improvement lowed by tariff adjustment. 4. That tariff reductions would: be accompanied by modifications of the quota system which now limits im- ports into consuming countries. ‘The assembly will endeavor to ar- rive at an international agreement for the adjustment of exports to de- mand, with the object of eliminating the abnormal carryover which has een depressing the wheat market the last four years. It also will try to increase and stabilize wheat prices at a reasonable level, which will be remunerative to tarmers and fair to consumers of breadstuffs. The conference will complete con- versations begun by delegates from the chief exporting countries in Geneva Mey 10 and continued throughout June and July while the world economic conference was in ses- sion. At the morning meeting the draft agreement reached before the world economic conference adjourned was gone over article by article. Premier Bennett of Canada, chosen conference chairman, designated a number of countries, including Can- ada, the United States and Argentina, to appoint one member each to serve on a technical committee.

Tostevin, 43, managing edi- tor of the Mandan Daily Pioneer, died at his home in Mandan early Sunday. Death came as the result of a cere- bral hemorrhage following a restless night. He had suffered for many years from a complication of diseases caused by glandular disturbances and a short time ago was severely injured in an automobile accident. He spent Saturday at his desk and for the last two days had devoted much time and attention to the Mis- souri Solpe gladiolus and civic league fiower show, for the success of which he was largely responsible. Writer, soldier, editor and poet, Earle Tostevin filled an important place in North Dakota journalism. His ‘wide acquaintance throughout the state, his activity in the Americas Legion and the Masonic lodge and his familiarity with the political situa- tion in the state combined to make him one of the most capable news- papermen in the state. Was Well Known Here | For many years he covered North Dakota legislative sessions for the Pioneer and his pointed comments and ability to translate probable trends of pending measures for his readers went a long way toward writ- ing political history in North Dakota. He had many friends in Bismarck who were shocked to learn of his death. He took a keen interest in state and local affairs and played a prominent |part in Mandan’s development and {civic life. He was an ardent support- er for the Missouri Slope country and was interested in a wide range of en- terprises throughout the southwestern section of the state.

De- |cision to hold the show this year was reached at a meeting of the executive committee of the board of directors of the show at a meeting here Mon- day. Owing to the fact that there will jbe no state or county appropriations |for the show this year, expenses will have to be curtailed, but it is planned to have prizes donated by Bismarck business men and others who are in- terested in seeing the corn show kept alive. Chairman George Will of the execu- tive committee believes that North Dakota will be able to make an excel- lent showing this year despite drouth conditions that have cut down thé yleld considerably. Some very fine samples of corn already have been secured that indicate a fair yield and an exceptional grade when it is fully developed. Dates for the show were set for October 26, 27 and 28. The premium st will be prepared at an early date. Lindy Lends Hand To British Aviator Reykjavik, Iceland, Aug. 21.—(>)— Col. Charles A.

Police said that the truck carry- ing the chemicals, part of a freight shipment bound for New York, crashed into the rear of the merrymakers’ truck. Fire followed instantly and a moment later there came an ex- plosion which aroused the coun- | tryside. Young people were strewn over the roadside, but it meant the saving of their lives. The four who burned to degth were trap- ped in the straw-strewn picnic truck. Several were injured in addi- tion to the score who were brought to two Wilmington hospitals. But their names were not obtained in the excitement. On the Wilmington-Philadel- phia pike, main travel artery, and casting a glare which could be seen for miles, the accident caused a traffic jam which blocked cars for miles in both directions. State police declared the driver‘of the truck which carried the chemi- cals, told them he saw the other truck too late to stop. SAYS FIGHT AGAINST DEPRESSION AS VITAL AS NATIONS DEFENSE Chairman J. E. Davis Avers Bat- tle Is Against Cruel and Malicious Enemy Comparing the fight against the depression to a state of war against national enemies, J. E. Davis, chair- man of the Bismarck organization of thé national recovery act, said Mon- day we are at war against as “cruel and malicious an enemy as ever at- tempted to riddle Old Glory.” He asserted the committee is receiving 100 per cent support from the citi- zens of Bismarck in its effort to co- operate with the president's program. “America has gone to war,” he said. i“Yes, that's exactly what has happen- ed. Just think for a moment of the suffering and death that have come from this frightful depression of the last four years, “We simply must get our people back to work, and this present drive will do it.

I refer, of course, to the |Plans for the adoption of the indus- trial codes and the presidential agree- ment. Need Action Now “Very briefly the situation may be expained in this way: In order to build up the nation’s buying power to keep pace with the increasing com- modity prices, there must be whole- sale reemployment—not sometime in the near future but right now. So President Roosevelt, acting under the Industrial Recovery Act, first entrust- ed to General Hugh 8. Johnson the organization of the vast task of work- ing out acceptable industrial codes. This work has been progressing ra- pidly and satisfactorily. Then, in order to speed things up still more and get men back to work more quickly throughout the nation, thus raising the mass buying power to keep pace with increasing commodity | prices, President Roosevelt has inaug- lurated the presidential agreement. This was quite fully gone into in his recent nation-wide radio address. All concerns in Bismarck are asked to join up with the president in a cove- nant to maintain wages at least at a certain minimum level and restrict working hours within certain limita- tions. “Every employer who signs this solemn agreement with the president of the United States will immediate- ly have the right to display the N.

D., Aug. 21.—(P)— The matter of diversion of the Mis- souri river was presented to the North Dakota public works committee and to Frank Murphy, regional director of public works, at a meeting here Mon- day. Joe Doyle, Fargo, chairman of the state committee, called the meeting to order and introduced Murphy and Governor William Langer. Governor Langer said the people of North Dakota want two things, a fix- ed minimum price on wheat and other grains and completion of the Missouri River Diversion project. The governor called attention to a drop of 29 cents in the price of wheat during the last few weeks and de- clared that unless the farmers are given a fair price for their grain and other products they face ruin. He sug- gested $1.25 at Minneapolis as a mini- mum price for wheat, 85 cents for tye and $2 for flax. “We want these prices established not only for this year but next year,” Governor Langer said, “and if you can get President Roosevelt and Secretary Wallace to set these prices, we will take care of all of the unemployed in North Dakota.” Murphy Has His Say Murphy declared he was in James- town as regional director of the pub- lic works program and in that capa- city had nothing to do with the prices of grain, but that since he had spent so many years in the fight to secure adequate prices for farm produce he would step out of the role of director of public works to comment upon the governor's address. “Wheat was $1.24 per bushel at Minneapolis five weeks ago,” Murphy said. “Flax was more than two dol- lars per bushel and all other grains in proportion, Since that time we have had the slump which Governor Langer mentioned. I want to call your attention to the fact that in the mean time not & single new bushel of wheat or flax or other grain has been produced. In other words, we now have no more grain than we knew we had at that time. In fact, every report has been bullish. If wheat was worth $1.25 five weeks ago, it is worth that much today. The millers who bought wheat at that price will mill it and sejl the flour at a profit. There is no justification for this drop. ‘You are just being robbed.” In Midst of Revolution “We are in the midst of a great peaceful revolution and we are trying to make it possible for every one to get a square deal, but there will be no recovery until the farmers get a dol- lar worth 100 cents. Farm prices must virtually double if we are to have better times. The farmers buy the substantial things such as paint, lumber, wire, machinery and other things classed as essentials.

Thom} son, state superintendent of public in- struction. Thompson based his assertion upon existing laws covering distribution of School monies, to which he has given special study since the proclamation of Governor William Langer calling the special election. These, he said, prohibit the distribution to schools of any money which might be received og the sales tax until September, His statement follows in full: “Iam in favor of any legislation that will help those schools which are now in financial distress. “However, the plain and unfortunate fact is that the sales tax, if enacted, cannot help those schools this year.

PRICE FIVE CENTS TO START PURCHASE OF 5,000,000 SWINE WEDNESDAY MORNING Will Buy At Chicago, Omaha, South St. Paul, Sioux City, Kansas City, St. Joseph MINIMUM PRICES FIXED Amount Paid to Be Determined By Weight; Standard Price For Sows Chicago, Aug. 21—(7)—The emer- gency hog program calling for the purchase of five million pigs and sows by the federal government will be inaugurated Wednesday in six middle western markets, the agricul- tural adjustment administration an- nounced Monday. Purchasing will be carried on in Chicago, Omaha, South St. Paul. Sioux City, Kansas City and St. Jo~ seph, Mo., markets. Farmers can follow the usual pro- cedure in sending their hogs to the markets, it was explained, but were cautioned not to sell so far below the government's prices as to allow ex- horbitant handling fees for the usual middlemen. The Chicago stockyards was made a basing point and G. B. Thorn, field representative of the corn and hog section of the A. A. A., announced the government would pay the following prices: 5 Pigs weighing 25 to 30 pounds, $9.50 per hundred pounds; pigs of 31 to 35 pounds, $9.25; pigs weighing 36 to 40 pounds, $9.00; 41 to 45 pounds, $8.75; 46 to 50 pounds, $8.50; 51 to 55 pounds, $8.25; 56 to 60 pounds, $8.00; 61 to 65 pounds, $7.75; 66 to 70 pounds, $7.50; 71 to 75 pounds, $7.25, For pigs weighing 76 to 80 pounds, the anounced price was $7.00; 81 to 85 pounds, $6.75; 86 to 90 pounds, $6.50; 91 to 95 pounds, $6.25, and 96 to 100 pounds, $6.00. Other Markets Lower In all markets except the Chicago market, the prices will be 40 cents per 100 pounds below those at the Chi- cago basing point. Other basing points may be anounced later. Thorn said. For sows, of which the agricultural administration plans to buy one mil- lion head, the price will be the cure rent market quotation plus $4.00 prem~ ium and without the customary reduction because the sows are due to farrow. This adds 40 pounds to the market payment, Thorn ex- plained. Runts will not be bought, he said and the south’s “razor backs” - 01 “range pigs” will be bought in at $3.0¢ a hundred pounds below the basing point schedules. Prices will be made on the basis ot the average weight of the lot ship- ped, but to prevent speculators from mixing very light and very heavy pigs to obtain a favorable average weight for the shipment, the administration will require that individual pigs ir each lot must not vary more than % pounds in weight, Thorn said. In other markets, Thorn said, pur- chasing will begin Aug. 28. Four million pigs of from 25 to 100 pounds will be bought in the course of the relief plan, along with one mil- ion sows, with a minimum weight of 275 pounds, due to farrow soon. It may be required, Thorn said, that the sows be due to farrow within three or four weeks. Touhy Gangsters Are In Jail at St. Paul St. Paul, Aug. 21.—(#)—The routine of Sunday in the city jail was inter- rupted when police and federal au- thorities removed Roger Touhy, Chi- cago gangster, and three of his henchmen from their cells long enough to photograph them and take their fingerprints. Touhy and three of his lieutenants of Chicago gangland were placed in separate cells Friday to await trial on charges of kidnaping William Hamm, Jr., wealthy St. Paul brewer. They were brought from Milwaukee. While the records were being taken, city, county and federal authorities watched with heavily armed detec- tives and agents. The four men were returned a short time later to their cells. Between now and Nov. 7, the date set for the trial, the county and fed- eral authorities will be busy preparing their case against the four men. Cook Is Winner in Jamestown Tourney Jamestown, N.
